2 THE VOICE OF WISDOM DEFENDS NUCLEAR ENERGY Alternative sources of energy such as wind or solar are too inefficient for fast developing countries. [ ] The use of nuclear energy could be a way to bridge the socioeconomic gap in developing countries. 2 Just to look at nuclear energy from one side then to make a decision is not right. Dalai Lama, April 14 th Japan

4 BRAZIL POWER SECTOR Current situation paving the way for nuclear projects Electricity Prod. in 2011 Electricity Prod. in 2013 Forecast installed capacity: 200GW by 2022 Forecast power generation: 850TWh by 2022 GDP growth perspectives : 2% per year Installed capacity: 117GW Power growth perspectives: p 6% per year Installed capacity: 117GW Power generation: 430TWh CO2 emissions: 56Kg/MWh Trends: hydro production decreasing Production down due to repeated drought over the past few years Hydro is raising public acceptance issues Outlook: Nuclear: 4 to 8GW by 2030 (PNE 2030) Installed capacity: 127GW Power generation: 550TWh CO2 emissions: 115kg/MWh Political decisions to come in 2015, following presidential election scheduled in October 2014 Nuclear: Confirmation of the New Build program through site final selection Source: EPE Increasing electricity demand with less hydro production available ailable is leaving room for nuclear

5 THE HYDRO-BASED MODEL Under question In 2014, the water levels of Brazil s reservoirs have dropped to near record lows. and the country had no choice but to turn-on its back-up thermal plants to avoid energy shortage. Water level at reservoirs (% of total) Thermo power plants energy production April 2014 (% of total) Remaining back-up thermal plants Brazil can count on. Source: BNP Paris Bas In April, last month of the rainy season, water level at reservoir were at 42% of total while in April 2013 it was at 61%. Source: BNP Paris Bas CO2 emissions increased by 17% between : 2011: 70 Kg/MWh 2012: 82 kg/mwh Authorities to decide whether to adapt electricity-saving measures. Energy rationing could hurt growth. The additional cost of thermal generation reached BRL 9 billion this year: the cost of keeping the light on Balance to be found between electricity demand growth and nuclear share in the energy mix to secure power supply and economic growth.

20 Alternative sources of energy such as wind or solar are too inefficient for fast developing countries. [ ] Conclusion The use of nuclear energy could be a way to bridge the socio-economic gap in developing countries. Dalai Lama, April 14 th Japan Even after Fukushima, the fundamentals of the world energy market remain the same: Important growth in electricity needs Security of supply and pressure on fossil energy Environmental issues and need to reduce CO 2 emissions in energy production Low-carbon energies such as nuclear power will play a key role in energy mix. In Brazil, nuclear energy shall be considered: To cope with the end of hydro power hegemony To secure a sufficient i base load capacity to face the power demand. d The decision to complete the construction of Angra3 confirms the country s engagement e in an ambitious nuclear program poga
