3 Dachs. The micro cogeneration.

4 Market leader and manufacturer Berlin SenerTec The mchp competence centre 140 highly motivated employees approx. 45 m Euro turnover Frankfurt Stuttgart SCHWEINFURT European market leader of micro CHP units a BDR Thermea company

5 The Dachs in Europe SenerTec Country Organisations in UK and Spain ~ 30,000 ~ SenerTec Partner Companies in Austria, Belgium, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Slovenia, Switzerland, Poland and Czech Republic

6 CHP solutions for small and large applications class class class (from 2014 on) Fuel Cell Domestic housing Small commercial and small Commercial buildings, multiple storey buildings, multiple storey buildings District heating schemes 6

7 Dachs F 5.5 (LPG-CHP) in a hotel 7

9 Action program climate protection 2020

10 Greenhouse gas emissions in Germany Greenhouse gas emissions in Germany from 1990 to 2013 forecast in mio. t. CO2-equivalent - 40% 750 Forecast Total not CO2 (CH4, N20, LPGs)

11 Instruments and operational fields of the energy transition Economic instruments Energy efficiency buildings CHP emissions trading energy- and powertax fundings goods and services industry to avoid greenhouse gases Renewable energies power heat network expansion storage capacity Green Mobility emission limit values for cars e-mobility biofuels

13 Functional principle of Combined Heat and Power Vegetable oil LPG Engine/generator Gas turbine/generator Fuel oil Natural gas Fuel CHP unit Electricity Heat Coal Biomass Fuel cell Steam turbine/generator Waste Quelle: B.KWK Source: ASUE Source: B.KWK CHP is the simultaneous generation of electricity and useful heat.

14 Technology with promising future Combined Heat and Power (CHP) 12 % losses 100 % Fuel Engine/generator 38 % Electricity 50 % Heat Generation without CHP (electricity from power plant / heat from boiler) Generation without CHP (electricity from power plant / heat from boiler) 78 % Total losses Losses 166 % Fuel Fuel 38 % Electricity 6 % Losses 50 % Heat Source: B.KWK To produce the same output of heat and electricity you need without a CHP 66% more energy input

15 Development of energy prices in Germany electricity fuel-oil fuel-gas Dark prospects for energy consumers bright prospects for energy producers!

17 Capital investment government subsidies in capital investment government subsidies CHP Mini- Programm 3,688 23,450 1) to be invested in Dachs SE F 5.5 CHPsubsidy 14,875 * Energy tax 4,831 * 1) without cost of installation and value added tax. * 5,000 running hours per year The government pays for your Dachs!

18 Example: Holzmühle in Wegberg The switch from oil to LPG in energy procurement is an additional savings of about 15 to 20 percent for operating the Holzmühle Complete energy cost savings for heating and electricity is 8,900 per year => 89,000 in 10 years! Source: Primagas / german contract

21 CHP ideal partner for wind and photovoltaics!

22 CHP ideal partner for wind and photovoltaics!

23 CHP ideal partner for wind and photovoltaics! Virtual power plant

24 CHP the more the better! Dachs units producing per year up to and saving our environment up to kwh electricity About households could be supplied with this amount for one year! kg CO2 This equals ha of trees -> about the size of Berlin!

25 CHP: key for the succesful energy transition. for environment protection - high savings of climate-damaging emissions (up to 50 % CO 2 ) - highly efficient use of primary energy (savings of approx. 30 %) - decentralised energy generation prevents transport losses for security of supply - flexibility -> CHP generated electricity balances the fluctuating feed-in of the renewable energy sources - the grids overcapacity can be stored in battery storages or heat reservoirs (electric heating element) - controlled feed-in in times of max. remuneration - stability of the grid -> electricity is generated at the point of use (no transmission losses on the electricity grid) for our customers - the CHP unit reduces the owners energy costs and keeps the bills stabilized - the dependence on the electric company is being decreased to self-sufficiency - improves the environmental balance - lowers tax burden

26 Energy architecture of the future Energy transition decentral electricity production (central facilities and storages as back-up systems) Offshore wind farm CCS-powerplant Photovoltaics Biogas power plant Fuel-gas power plant CHP with fuelgas turbine Pumped (hydro) storage and hydropower station Photovoltaics Photovoltaics Small-CHP Large CHP Onshore wind farm Smart home Micro-CHP Smart meter e-mobility Source: E-Energy
