4Products & ServicesSystemDescriptionApplicationMin. InvestmentTRTTop gas Recovery Turbine unit, a system that utilizes high pressured gas emitted from the steel blast furnace top to drive turbine units and generate electricitySteel plants$3.5MCHPG Cement Heat Power Generation, a system that collects the waste heat from the entrance and exit ends of cement rotary kilns to generate electricityCement plants$7MWGPGWaste Gas Power Generation, a system that utilizes flammable waste gas from coal mining, petroleum exploitation and refinery processing as a fuel source to generate electricityOil refinery plants and coal mining$10MCCPPCombined Cycle Power Plant, a system that generates electricity by burning the previously released gas generated during the iron-making process from blast furnaces. This can be achieved using either the boiler or CCPP turbine methodSteel plants and coking factories$25MBWPGBiomass Waste Power Generation, a new energy alternative that utilizes agriculture waste, such as straw, wood, and biogas, as fuel to generate powerAgriculture and forestry $15MCREG recovers energy in the form of pressure, heat and gas and converts it into electricity. The energy recovery systems can generally be classified into five categories:55Move picturesBlast Furnace Top Gas Recovery Units (TRT)Steel industry: China has the third largest steel industry in the world and grew at a 20% rate over the past 5 yearsEnergy potential: 38 kWh recovered per ton of steal produced; equivalent to $686M in electricity revenueRegulatory: the Chinese government is requiring all existing and new blast furnaces to install TRT systems; currently only ~50% are in complianceMarket size: over 200 TRT projects in China over the next 5 years

Cement Heat Power Generation (CHPG)Cement industry: China produces more than 45% of the worlds cement, with large scale plants (eligible for CHPG installation) producing more than 1.35 billion tons per yearEnergy potential: 38 kWh recovered per ton of cement producedRegulatory: the government requires that by 2010 40% of new, dry-type cement production plants must install CHPG systems (less than 10% have installed such systems)Market size: over 480 CHPG projects in China over the next 5 years

Market Outlook TRT and CHPG66Waste Gas Power Generation (WGPG)Coal coking industry: Chinas annual output is reaching 281 million tons; industry growth rate of 20% per annumEnergy potential: 80 kWh recovered per ton of steel produced; equivalent to $1.5B in electricity revenue (22.5 billion kWh)Market size: 300 furnace waste gas projects, 500 blast furnace waste heat projects, 100 glass furnaces furnace waste heat projects, 300 non-ferrous metal projects, 300 waste gas power generation projectsBiomass Waste Power Generation Agricultural waste burning industry: the National Development and Reform Commission (NRDC) expects the industry to rapidly expand as supportive policies, new technologies, and raw material collection infrastructure materializeUnder China's 12th Five-Year Plan from 2011 to 2015, energy efficiency and alternative energy technologies (including biomass fueled electricity) are top prioritiesEnergy potential: when sold to the state grid, recycled biomass waste has a preferential price of RMB 0.25 per kWh versus coal fueled power Regulatory: Straw power plants receive preferential tax treatment and subsidies

Market Outlook WGPG and BWPG77Coke Dry Quenching Power Generation (CDQ)The CDQ technology uses gas, instead of water, in an enclosed system to cool the heated coke. The heated gas is then recycled to generate electricity. Thus, CDQ system, as oppose to the Coke Wet Quenching system, has quickly been adapted in China in recent years due to its environmental friendliness. Coke Dry Quenching (CDQ) reuses waste heat, saves water and reduces pollutionMarket Outlook CDQ88Business ModelBOT Model: CREG finances and constructs the project, operates the project for 5-30 years, and then transfers the project to the customerEnables clients to focus on core business and avoid large capital expenditures while they improve their energy efficiency (5-20% savings) and meet regulatory standards

Build Operate Transfer Invest and build power plant at factory (3-6 months of construction)Facility is operated for the client for a period of 5-20 years; customers pays below market rates for all electricity needsPower plant is turned over to the client for no/a small fee at the end of the contract termLease Model: CREG finances and constructs a project, leases to the customer, and then sells/gives the project to the customer when the lease expiresInvestment Model: Both CREG and the customer finance and construct the project and share in the profits over 5-30 years (or indefinitely)

9Secure recurring revenuesOperational periods typically range from 5 to 30 yearsElectricity sales are secured by long-term electricity production agreements with customers; include built in guarantees of reaching minimum operational hours per yearInternal systematic approval process, including detailed due diligence, minimizes operational and collection riskFor private businesses, CREG requires mortgage, collateral, personal and third party guarantees and/or three months of payments upfront

Rapid payback (See Appendix A)Payback typically achieved within 3 to 4 yearsWeighted average unlevered IRR of 20%+ on current and under construction projects
