Industry s 22 target Year Outcome of the first German tender indicates that Germany and the UK will follow the Netherlands below ~6EUR/MWh in LCOE by 222 on a FID basis 8

9 Offshore Wind LCOE Next generation 12MW+ turbines offer higher energy yield IRR for varying wholesale power price levels (%) EUR/MWh 35 EUR/MWh 3 EUR/MWh LCOE at FID ~222 Turbine rating (MW) Project lifetime (years) OPEX (EUR/kW/year) CAPEX (EURm/MW) Bull Base Bear Availability (%) Bull Base Bear (Scenario) WACC 3.3% 4.% 5.5% LCOE (EUR/MWh) ~25 ~34 ~48 Note: LCOE level at FID. IRR hinges on power price levels being at least 3/MWh to break even on recent zero subsidy bid. Developers could choose to back out of these deals as bid bond is not as high. 9

10 Power price development Key drivers for future power price developments Major impacts Power demand is trending up, due to more use of power for heating and transportation purposes. More power demand Penetration of cheap renewable energy affect prices negatively. More interconnectors lead to convergence in price between markets. Growth in renewables Interconnectors As cheap nuclear and coal are phased out, natural gas will more often set the price. Phase out of coal and nuclear Gas and coal prices will have a huge impact on future power prices. Higher fossil fuel prices ETS price of around 5-7 EUR/t today to around 3 EUR/t in 23. Higher carbon prices Drivers of power price developments vary across markets, but main drivers include RES-E penetration, higher fossil fuel prices and carbon pricing. 1

11 EUR/MWh (Gross electricity generation Index 215=1) Power price development Flattish power demand in EU-28, but upside in key offshore markets Netherlands power prices, 21-23e Electricity generation in Europe, e Historical prices Reference Low price High prices EU-28 Denmark Germany Netherlands United Kingdom e 25e 3e e 225e 23e 235e 24e 245e 25e ; ECN, CBS, PBL, RVO ; European Commission Power prices likely to trend upward in the long term, primarily driven by higher fossil fuel prices. 11

12 Financing offshore projects Capital markets will continue to pursue renewable energy assets European interest rates continue to be low (Interest rates and benchmarks - %) 1,2 Although base interest rates in the US have increased recently, debt financing rates remain at historic lows Decreasing WACC for non-merchant projects WACC (in %) 6% 5,5%,9,6,3, -,3 US Fed Funds LIBOR (USD based) Euro area discount rate 5% 4% 3% 2% 1% % 3,99% 3,86% 3,6% 3,47% 3% 3% 3,6% 3,3% 3% 3% 2,58% 25% 25% 2% 7% 212 7% 213 7% 214 7% 75% 75% 8% e nonmerchant project % Financed w/ equity % Financed w/ debt 35% 65% 22e merchant project Note: Monthly averages of ICE LIBOR, Effective Federal Funds Rate and Euribor, Federal reserve data, ICE, Quandl Note: Non-merchant projects assume flat cost of equity and debt interest rate expected to decrease by CAGR of 2%. Merchant Risk premium for merchant projects due to uncertain power offtake and exposure to volatile power prices. 12

13 LCOE (EUR/MWh) LCOE comparison across technologies Larger scale and CAPEX reductions drive down UK LCOE in 22 LCOE comparison, UK, EUR/MWh NGGC Coal Thermal Solar Solar Range Other Note: Unsubsidized LCOE of new construction, Nominal 217 EUR. FX rate of EUR/GBP = 1.17 used for conversion. Wholesale power prices represents Q4/216 averages. Solar LCOE shown for utility-scale systems Onshore OnshoreOffshoreOffshore OPEX Fuel CAPEX -56.4% Average wholesale Price = 66 EUR/MWh LCOE dynamics in the UK Offshore Significant CAPEX reductions expected from a more mature supply chain Projects are expected to be significantly bigger for CfD Round 3 than they will be in CFD Round 2 Onshore 22 estimation yields an upside to offshore relative to onshore due to economies of scale Tip height restrictions prevent average hub height levels from increasing rapidly and thus LCOE levels from coming down further Solar energy After elimination of the Renewable Obligation (RO) program, new annual installations in the UK market decreased significantly Self-consumption will drive some growth; 2-3MW of additions per year are expected Natural gas Sustained low gas prices due to supply glut could reduce the LCOE of gas over the next 3-5 years Strong UK offshore pipeline and long-term policy have prompted investments in the supply chain, making >5% LCOE reductions achievable. 13

LCOE levels for offshore wind reported on FiD year. Nominal 217 EUR. Wholesale power prices represents Q4/216 averages 62 OPEX 54 Fuel CAPEX -55.6% Solar auction Price = 65 EUR/MWh Average wholesale Price = 55 EUR/MWh LCOE dynamics in Germany Offshore 17 auction revealed world s first subsidy-free projects won by DONG Energy (48MW) and EnBW (9MW). Bids driven by significant EoS on both OPEX and CAPEX Upcoming projects are 2-3MW in size. Plant size is expected to double to 5MW in 222; this dynamic will provide further LCOE reductions 1.6GW of additional capacity auctioned in 218 with at least 5MW in the Baltic Sea. The regulation tones down similar LCOE reductions in next auction round due to less competition Onshore German auction round reaffirmed cost competitive environment Smaller projects (1-15MW) will prevent economics from fully scaling for onshore wind Solar energy Solar tenders digress prices by 1-15%, driving LCOE level down to offshore 22 expectations Projects from the 6 th round of tenders were awarded 65 EUR/MWh for utility-scale projects Natural Gas Cash cost levels for natural gas are expected to hover around 4. EUR/Mmbtu in the next few years Expectations of next generation turbines (13-15MW) and good site conditions enable offshore to compete on cost with fossils, onshore and PV. 14

15 Offshore Wind SCOE Job creation from offshore wind drives down SCOE level SCOE breakdown, UK, EUR/MWh SCOE comparison, UK, FID at ~222 LCOE 42 Transmission cost Subsidies Integrational cost Job Creation CO2 Avoidance SCOE % PV -25% Onshore -16% Offshore LCOE System cost Social cost LCOE + system cost SCOE Note: LCOE in UK, FiD basis in 222 Consulting Note: No integrational cost or subsidies assumed for onshore or PV Consulting Increasing national security of energy supply is not included in the model yet, however this parameter is expected to further increase renewables position vis-a-vis fossils. 15
