1 EORI PRESENTATION Tap Into The Future July,

2 Concept started in early 1970s GPSP built by a consortium of 5 pipeline companies Construction began in 1980 Synthetic Natural Gas (SNG) production began in 1984

3 A technological marvel but not a financial success Original Owners Default The original investors defaulted on August 1, 1985, about one year after first gas was put in the pipeline, due to the very low price of natural gas DOE Operation Period The DOE operated the plant from 1985 until 1988 Sold to Basin Electric Power Cooperative Basin Electric purchased the plant from the DOE & formed DGC, a wholly owned subsidiary to operate the facility 3

4 Formed in 1961 by representatives of 67 rural electric cooperatives from eight states. Power Resources: Antelope Valley Station Leland Olds Station Laramie River Station PrairieWinds Peaking Stations Heat Recovery Dry Fork Station New Projects: Peaking Stations Wind Wind-to-Hydrogen Subsidiaries: Dakota Gasification Company Souris Valley Pipeline Ltd Dakota Coal Company Montana Limestone Company Basin Cooperative Services Basin Telecommunications Inc. PrairieWinds ND1 Inc. PrairieWinds ND2 Inc. 4 5
