Final Acceptance Test

Annual Solar Thermal Power Plant Test

The performance of the Project is guaranteed by the EPC

contractor.

For the evaluation of this performance a computer program

“Performance Model” was used.

This Performance Model calculates the for a given solar meteo input

file (solar irradiation, ambient temperature and wind speed and

direction) for a complete year the guaranteed values of :

Generation at HV transformer terminals (MWh)

Electric parasitic consumption (MWh)

Extract from Andasol 1&2 Certificate

Andosol 1&2 company wishes to express its sincere appreciation for Mr.

Miroslav Dolejsi`s support during preparation, construction, procurement,

commissioning and warranty periods of Concentrated Solar Power Plant

Andasol 1 and Andasol 2, located in the Marquesado del Zenete, in the

municipality of Aldeire (Province Granada, Andalusia, Spain).

Mr. Miroslav Dolejsi led all relations between Andosol 1&2 company and

Fichtner Solar to the full satisfaction of both parties. He also managed very

successful relationship with Lenders (BNP Paribas, WestLB, Dexia Sabadell and

Banco Sabadell ) and owners as well as the cooperation between PROPIEDAD,

AndaSol 1&2 Central Termosolar Uno, S.A and the EPC Contractor

(CONTRATISTA, UTE Cobra Instalaciones y Servicios, S.A y Sener Ingerniería

y Sistemas, S.A.).

His leadership, extensive management skills, technical know-how and

understanding of the contracts allowed owner to finish the first projects of this

kind implemented worldwide successfully within the time, budget and without
