23 Policies & regulation support deployment 23 3

24 Policies and regulation support deployment Adoption of necessary policies and regulation (1) Source: Bloomberg, 2012

25 Policies and regulation support deployment Adoption of necessary policies and regulation (2) Efforts continue in 2011 and 2012: During 2011 PPAs for 3.6 GW of renewable capacity were auctioned by the government. 3 GW went to wind power alone. Over > 6 GW of wind projects with awarded PPAs are in the pipeline. Government announced A3 y A5 auctions for October Bill to increase current RPS of 10% by 2024 to 20% by 2020 recently approved by Senate. Government has announced a number of initiatives to support renewables, including a new bill for transmission recently sent to Congress. Together with marginal costs above US$ 200 per MWh and increasingly competitive technologies have resulted in project for over 8 GW in environmental evaluation.. Announcements of new auctions by the government for long term PPAs and open seasons for the development of transmission in 2011 together with existing regulation to support self supply projects (energy bank) and tax incentives (accelerated depreciation) continue to promote wind power. Second auction for government backed PPAs for renewables in PPAs for 210 MW awarded (90 MW to wind power). Energy is sold at spot prices and the Government makes an annual balance between revenues that should have been perceived at awarded PPA price and compares it to actual revenues and pays deficits. Public Utility auctioned PPAs for 192 MW in PPA for another 450 MW for wind power are expected shortly. A process for operational leases 200 MW of wind power in place as well as direct contracts. Goal: 1.3 GW al Government auctioned PPAs for 50 MW of Wind Power in 2011 and 100 MW of Wind Power in Panamá government awarded in 2011 PPAs 153 MW of wind under its first auction for Wind Power.

34 A few issues for discussion 6

35 A few issues for discussion Sustainability of low auction prices for wind power Brazil awarded PPAs for 6.7 GW awarded between 2009 and Of the MW built at the end of 2011, 90% under the Proinfa ( ) scheme provided significantly higher prices than those from the tenders (230 reales). Peru awarded PPAs in 2010 and 2011 for 4 projects for a total of 232 MW of Wind at an average price of $81 MWh and US$ 69 MWh, respectively, 0 MW are under construction. Uruguay awarded PPAs in 2011 for a 150 MW and 192 MW of Wind at an average price of US$ 84 MWh and US$ 63 MWh respectively. There are 150 MW under construction.

36 A few issues for discussion Access to financing Installed wind power capacity 132 MW. Government tender for 754 MW in 2010 Average price PPAs awarded US$127 MWh. Only one 77 MW project built under auction despite good prices. High country risk, currency controls and export controls. No access to public or private financing. PPAs for 6.7 GW auctioned between 2009 and Installed wind power capacity August GWs. BNDES soft loans are financing the vast majority of subject to a 60% local content requirements. In 2011 BNDES provided 80% of the $ 5.6 billion in new investments attracted by the wind industry. Installed wind power capacity 201 MW and 200 MW under construction. 5% RPS will scale up to 10% by Marginal prices above US$ 200 MWh provide price signal Robust local finance sector and low country risk allow for balance sheet financing and project finance. Initial public support through preferential financing lines

37 A few issues for discussion Transmission La Guajira in the isolated northern border of the country with Venezuela has several GWs of potential but a 190 km transmission line will be required. The 1 GW of installed wind power capacity in the Oaxaca region accesses transmission financed through Open Seasons carried out by the government. A bill was recently sent to Congress to create electric highway. One of its goals is to connect isolated renewable resource rich regions.

38 A few issues for discussion New players Antofagasta Minerals, Chile's largest mining group signs a PPA and takes equity stake in 115 MW wind farm. Project to start construction shortly. Codelco, worlds largest copper mining company, owns Chile s first Solar PV Power Plant and is looking into Wind. Arauco, one of worlds leading pulp company's announces it will invest in a 120 MW Wind farm in Chile. It also owns biomass power plants. Canadian gold mining company Barrick commissioned a 16 MW wind farm in the north of Chile. Worlds largest Methanol producer installed a 2.3 MW self supply wind farm in Punta Arenas, Chile. Engraw manufacturing facility, Uruguay Chilean glass bottle manufacturer built a 9 MW wind farm. Chilean sanitary built 9 MW biogas power plant. Uruguay s wool producer installed a single 1.8 Vestas WTG and became one of the first WindMade certified companies in the world.
