4 4 Excerpt from the annual report Hertz almanac Key data for 5 Hertz The aim of this special section is to explain 5 Hertz s business within the context of the energy industry. 5 Hertz is responsible for the operation, maintenance, planning and expansion of the transmission system in the German states of Berlin, Brandenburg, Hamburg, Mecklenburg-West Pomerania, Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia. Our transmission network provides the technical foundation for integrating energy from renewable sources and ensuring energy supplies to more than 18 million people. We carry out our responsibilities to society in a transparent, non-discriminatory manner, above and beyond statutory requirements. In this special section, we provide a succinct overview of the main data and facts on 5 Hertz s transmission network and control area in a pan-german and European context.

The extrapolation is carried out using the measurement data from representative sites and an algorithm developed by Fraunhofer IWES. The actual feed-in is based on data sent to 5Hertz by the distribution system operators at month end for the settlement of EEG feed-in.

The extrapolation is also produced by extrapolating the figures from Meteocontrol and energy & meteo systems using a weighted mean. The data providers obtain the data set (online measurements) for the extrapolation for selected sites from their own generation facilities or from SMA Solar Technology AG. The actual feed-in is based on data sent to 5Hertz by the distribution system operators at month end for the settlement of EEG feed-in. All our providers of forecast data can now draw on many years of experience in producing energy forecasts. Changes in the weather nevertheless often result in complex situations which are difficult to forecast using weather models. They are one reason for the sometimes substantial variations in day-ahead forecasts, which subsequently have to be equalised in intraday trading. These variations are a challenge for system management as well. If the forecast and the extrapolation widely differ, the security of the system must be maintained at all times by carrying out measures in the network. The week selected for the charts shows the high volatility of wind and photovoltaic power. In exceptional cases it can even happen that high feed-in from wind around midday is increased by high feed-in from solar power plants. The resulting feed-in, in connection with high gradients, represents a particularly severe challenge for the stability of the system.

12 12 Excerpt from the annual report Hertz almanac Load / Consumption Change in electricity consumption in the 5Hertz control area, TWh * * provisional forecast figure Electricity consumption is based on the definition of electricity supplied to end consumers in accordance with the Renewable Energy Act (EEG). The sharp rise from 29 to 21 is due to the economic recovery after the recession and to the reporting of end consumers in non-public networks.

Faults include disruptions to the grid and to equipment which restrict transmission abilities or undermine system conditions. Grid disruptions include those due to electrical short circuits caused by storms. Disruptions to equipment are only included if grid elements are triggered or have to be switched off. Grid elements are power lines, transformers, inductors and bus bars.

17 Excerpt from the annual report Hertz almanac 17 Load factor for interconnectors in 211 Duration 8,76 h = 1 % 5Hertz Load control area below 5 % between 5 % and 7 % over 7 % The pie charts show how long an interconnector had a given percentage load factor during 211. The divisions illustrate the load on the line in per cent and indicate how it behaves in the event of a fault. A fault means that a technical element stops working (due to a lightning strike, for instance), and one or more of the other elements have to take up the additional transmission capacity. The grey area means there would be no problems in the event of a fault. Light orange means the line would be close to capacity in the event of a fault, and red means the line would be at the limits of its capacity if there were a fault. Annual electricity volumes transported by 5Hertz TWh The transported electricity volume is the total energy fed into the 5Hertz transmission system directly from generating facilities (power plants, wind turbines), distribution networks (recovery) and alliance supply terminals in TWh in one year.

What is known as the real body shows the opening and closing prices. An orange candlestick means that the opening price is lower than the closing price, so the market rose over the observation period. A grey candle represents the opposite case. Lower shadow open close low The observation period here is one candlestick per week. Taken together, the chart gives an impression of price movements, but also of the degree of price volatility. Trading volume is in turn an indicator of price significance.

19 Excerpt from the annual report Hertz almanac 19 5Hertz intraday trading volume in 211 GWh Weeks Volume bought Volume sold The graph shows weekly trading volumes divided by amounts purchased and sold. Trading volumes are made up of the company s own transactions and those carried out for third parties on the basis of service contracts. Number of intraday trading transactions by 5Hertz 12, 1, 8, 6, 61,546 98,255 In 29 exchange trading began in February, so there are no transactions for the month of January. The increase in transactions is due to the extremely rapid rise in installed wind power capacity. 4, 2, 21,
