Evolution of TSOs environment in Europe…

Before 1996: Vertically integrated and Natural Monopoly (eg. no clients but rate payers)

Evolving from reliable networks designed for optimisation of generation resources and power demand requirements as a business unit …

… towards a transmission and distribution networks implementing EU energy and climate policies and maximising welfare in a new industrial sector (Unbundling, Greening, Smartening)

Most TSOs were a profitable business unit within a vertical integrated utility although not visible

The European unbundling allowed three options (Fully unbundling, independent transmission operator or independent system operator). Fully unbundling became the standard after a while….

The unbundling of TSOs led to separate strong profitable companies: Regulators determine return on assets (WACC times RAB) or equity

ROE 5% – 12% (still a wide range applicable)

Some were listed on European stock markets (NG, Terna, REE, REN, Elia) Average EV / EBITDA 8.8 Average P / E 14.2 Average Dividend yield 5.8%

All of them were highly rated by the international rating agencies S&P, Moody’s, Fitch (often A-rating or higher)

TSOs are key for the creation of a European integrated electricity market and are therefore well perceived

by all stakeholders (regulators, politicians, energy market players, shareholders etc.)

Electricity incumbent producers went through difficult times in the past 5 years but this is mainly due to increased RES development (Germany subsidizing rest of Europe by lowering electricity power prices all over Europe) and the (unexpected) closure of nuclear power plants

Business case of unbundled TSOs

Energiewende

Energy transition and nuclear phase-out

The Energiewende : energy transformation based on a set of energy

policies:

– September 2010: ambitious targets in reduction of CO2 emissions,

renewable energy and energy savings

– May 2011: announcement of nuclear energy phase-out

(“Atomausstieg”) in the wake of Fukushima accidents

Energiewende brings a number of considerable challenges

– Significant change in electricity production mix implies shift in load

profile: rise in renewable en decentralised energy capacity versus

phase-out large scale nuclear capacity

– Maintenance of sufficient back-up capacity mainly through fossil fuels

(coal, gas)

– Substantial investments required for capacity extension and upgrading

in transmission and distribution

– Requirement for acceleration and simplification of permitting

procedures across states and regions for new build

Regulatory Framework written by 2 national regulators

• Mainly congestion revenue income resulting from market price

difference and interconnector capacity used;

• 2 regulators: OFGEM (UK) and CREG (Belgium);

• Joint ‘Cap and Floor’ regulatory regime for 25 years;

• ‘Below Floor’ revenues: exceptional support from consumers;

reduces the financial risk;

• ‘Above Cap’ revenues: surplus flows back to consumers;

Regulatory reporting

IPA = Initial Project Assessment; FPA = Final Project Assessment; PCR = Post Completion Review; ORA = Opex Reassessment Adjustment; DC = Decommissioning Cost Adjustment

• IPA and FPA create a Preliminary Cap and Floor • At the 85-95% stage of construction completion we create a PCR adjustment to those initial values • We have potentially two further adjustments:

• Opex related - ORA • Decommissioning related - DC

85% - 95% of construction
