1 Westinghouse Plasma Gasification Industrial Scale Syngas Production from Waste Products 2013 Gasification Technologies Conference Colorado Springs, CO October 13-16, 2013

2 WESTINGHOUSE PLASMA GASIFICATION: Focused on the gasification of difficult waste streams e.g. Municipal Solid Waste, Hazardous Waste, Industrial Waste, Medical Waste, Mixed Biomass, Construction & Demolition Waste Industrial scale syngas production (e.g. 1,000tpd creates ~3.5M GJ/year from 1 x G65 gasifier) Syngas is suitable for the replacement of expensive and volatile fossil fuels Can produce low cost / zero cost syngas and maximize project economics because we get paid to process the feedstock(s) Can be co-located with an Incinerator, accommodate hazardous fly/bottom ash vitrification and process additional higher value feedstock(s) Being actively deployed by recognized global companies OUR FOCUS (100% Owned) The industry leading plasma gasification technology that provides syngas for industrial use. WHO WE ARE Alter NRG is a publicly traded (TSX: NRG; OTCQX: ANRGF) Our Vision To provide the leading technology platform for converting the world s waste into clean energy for a healthier planet. Our Mission Build shareholder value by enabling customers to convert waste into clean energy. 2

3 THE TECHNOLOGY FOCUSES ON GROWING WASTE STREAMS Current global MSW generation is 1.3 billion tons per year, will increase to 2.2 billion tons per year by % Growing population and economic development leads to: increasing waste volumes Environmental concerns over landfilling and incineration 24% 8% 54% Landfill Compost Recycle Incineration THE TECHNOLOGY CREATES OPPORTUNITIES Ability to create low cost to zero cost syngas due to negative value feedstocks (i.e. receive a tipping fee) Replacement of ageing incinerators with Westinghouse Plasma technology creates a cleaner and more efficient waste to energy solution Westinghouse Plasma technology creates syngas this supports conversion of waste into higher value end products (e.g. liquid fuels, chemicals, higher priced fuel replacement) 3

5 THE MARKET POTENTIAL IS SIGNIFICANT Current global MSW generation levels are approximately 1.3 billion tons/year Expected increase to approximately 2.2 billion tons per year by 2025 Per capita generation increase from 1.2 to 1.4 kg/person/day next 15 years 2012 TOTAL MARKET SIZE 2025 TOTAL MARKET SIZE LIQUID FUELS 2.7 million Bbls/day (OR) SYNGAS 26,250,000 Mmbtu/day LIQUID FUELS 4.6 million Bbls/day (OR) SYNGAS 45,000,000 MMBtu/day (OR) (OR) WASTE 3.5 million tonnes/day ELECTRICAL 175 GW Capacity WASTE 6 million tonnes/day ELECTRICAL 300 GW Capacity Source: World Bank G-65 GASIFIERS 3,500 Units G-65 GASIFIERS 6,000 Units World Bank Study states that Waste generation levels are expected to grow by 69% by Markets and market potential are significant for traditional off-takes (e.g. power/liquids) as well as fuel replacement (e.g. syngas vs. LNG or diesel) 5

6 FOCUS ON DIFFICULT FEEDSTOCK(S) WITH ROBUST TIPPING FEES TO PROVIDE ZERO (NEGATIVE) COST SYNGAS OPERATING COST / MMBtu (NET OF TIPPING FEES) CLEAN UP Tipping Fees $0/t $40/t $60/t $80/t $100/t G-65 (1,000 tpd) $6.0 $1.75 $0 ($2.40) ($4.75) WESTINGHOUSE PLASMA GASIFICATION IS THE KEY ENABLING TECHNOLOGY * Europe, UK, China, India, Japan, Korea, South America Fuel Oil LNG $17+ / MMBtu (OR) $110 / Bbl $10 - $20 / MMBtu * With the exception of North America the majority of the world utilizes $10 - $20 / MMBtu fuel THE VALUE PROPOSITION GASIFYING 1000tpd of WASTE FEEDSTOCK Produces 3 million + GJ/yr of syngas at significant discount to current global fuel pricing This clean syngas can be used to displace expensive and volatile fossil fuels Assumptions: Capital per MMBtu for clean syngas is ~$2/MMBtu Compression to 400psig per MMBtu is ~$0.75/MMBtu $60/t MSW Revenue, $60/t Biomass Cost, $6/GJ Natural Gas Cost 6

10 COMMERCIAL CONTINUES WITH EXPANSION OF ADDITIONAL COMMERCIAL HAZARDOUS WASTE SOLUTIONS IN INDIA SMSIL owns and operates a 72 tpd hazardous waste treatment facility The facility processes different waste streams simultaneously Syngas is used to create electricity which is exported to grid SMSIL actively developing new projects 2 in EIA stage; targeted early 2014 approvals SMSIL and Alter NRG cooperate to replicate the Pune configuration around the world We are pleased to be working with the industry leader, Westinghouse Plasma, and have aggressive plans to develop and build plasma gasification facilities ourselves and for our customers in India and the Middle East. We have received many inquiries from customers who want to construct facilities similar to the plants in Pune and Nagpur. We have dedicated 140 people to expanding our plasma gasification business and we expect to construct up to 4-5 facilities over the next 2-3 years. - Hemant Lohda, Director of SMS states 10

11 OTHER RECENT COMMERCIALIZATION: BIOMASS TO LIQUID FUELS DEMONSTRATION FACILITY WUHAN, CHINA Wuhan Kaidi s demonstration facility in Wuhan, China Gasifier commissioned in Q1, 2013 Kaidi needed reliable gasifier to support fuels production. Demonstration portion of facility to convert syngas to liquid fuels. Kaidi has more that 100 identified sites for the conversion of biomassto-energy (both power and liquids) Kaidi is a publicly traded company in China with ~ $2 billion USD annual revenues We are pleased to be working with the Westinghouse plasma solution and believe it provides fuel flexibility for the more than 150 biomass projects that we plan to develop throughout China. We are looking to begin development immediately of a small scale project that can be used as a reference to aggressively build out many larger scale facilities in the near-term. - Mr. Chen Yilong, Chairman of Kaidi 11
