Macro Factors Favoring Energy & Environmental
Technology
The world is demanding cleaner power, water & living space
Existing energy infrastructure is aging under a growing population
Traditional energy sources are getting more expensive
Globalization has exacerbated each of these issues
China’s Unique Problem
High Growth
Weak Infrastructure
Huge Energy Demand
Dense Population
Major Environmental
Concerns
Opportunity

The Environmental Issue
World bank: China has 16 of the world's 20 most-polluted cities
Electricity production accounts for 34.2% of China’s air pollution
(legacy of coal economy)
China is on pace to discharge 1.4 to 1.9 billion tons of carbon
dioxide by 2020 – ranking it as the world’s top polluter
Industrial waste amounts to 650 million tons/year
The daily sewage rate of 3.7 tonnes requires 10,000 wastewater
treatment plants = $48 billion to achieve a 50% treatment rate

The Water Issue
Water shortage in 2/3rds of Chinese cities
300 million rural residents in China lack clean drinking water
Only a small percentage of surface water meets domestic standards
Severe urban/rural divide exists
70% of water in 5 of China’s 7 major rivers systems not suitable for
human contact
The not talked about problem: water infrastructure soaks up power
like a sponge

Power Issue
Today per capita generation is small1/13th of the US; 1/8th of Japan
China needs 1.5 billion kW of generation capacity by 2010 (385 MM kW today)
100 mm people lack access to power
China is the largest coal producer in the world58% for industrial useNot a sustainable source for long-run growth2nd largest consumer of energy but lacks oil and gas resources
No growth without cheap efficient powerTo fulfill the goal of quadrupling year 2000 GDP by 2010, China faces serious challenges in terms of energy supply and environmental protection

China Macro Factors
Rapid economic growthWorld Bank estimate: between 2004 and 2015 half of the world’s construction will be in China
Large population and abundant renewable energy resources
Big environmental problems today and getting worse with rapid development
World attention focused on China“Green” 2008 Olympics and 2010 Expo ShanghaiPledge to the United Nations – every rural family will have clean drinking water by 2020

China’s Response
10th 5 Year Period (2001-2005) Construction of coal mines and coal processing plants - Promote development of clean coal tech
Accelerate local production of wind power equipment; find a solution for remote power supply
Implement pilot projects on energy conservation in large energy
consuming industries
$85 billion to be invested in environmental production

Where Might Opportunities Lie?
Water
Power Generation
Renewables
Fuel Cells
Clean coal
Efficiency
Green building construction

Water
Water treatment alone is $500 billion industry globally
China will be a big piece of this market as it grows over the next 10 years
5 Year Plan: $12 billion allocated to water and wastewater treatment
Drinking Water Over the past 5 years, 800,000 new water treatment facilities went into operationMore than 14 million rural families have gained access to drinking water
WastewaterBeijing will spend $1.45 billion on wastewater equipment
9 sewage plants8 recycling treatment plants
Veolia Water
Acquired 45% of Shenzhen Water Group for $400 million in December 2003
Signed contract with Beijing municipal government to build wastewater treatment plant for Olympics
Has won a total of 13 water contracts and invested a total $1.2 billion

Infrastructure – Power Choices
Oil/Natural gasclean, rising prices, limited supply
Hydrolarge domestic resources; huge environmental impact; big ticket item
Nuclearmoderate priced & clean, long-term environmental tradeoffs
RenewablesGreat to talk about; but only a small dent in supply needs
Coal Dirty, cheap, plentiful (for now)
190 Gigawatts75% Coal25% Hydro & NuclearVery minimal other

How about Fuel Cells?
60 domestic institutes & companies active in fuel cellsElectric bicycles one noted application (2.5 mm/year production)
Est. $300-$400 mm in investment in fuel cell and advanced hybrid technology in 2001-2005
China is not as big a player as the US, Japan, and Europe
But China is very active and huge potential market
Fuel cells are another area where China’s low cost manufacturing may make a difference

Where Do Renewables Fit?
China’s Renewable Energy Development Project
Launched in December 2001Total Budget of $139 million
Solar Photovoltaic (PV)Solar energy will be principal energy source for 2008 Olympics.
Power 80-90% of streetlightsHeat up to 90% of hot water
Government grants to PV companies to accelerate installation of 300,000 – 400,000 PV systems (10 MW)
Wind PowerLargest exploitable wind power capacity in the world – 25.3 billion KWOnly 560,000 kW installed to dateCurrently relying on imports – domestic products could reduce cost about 50%
Guangting Power PlantWorld’s largest wind projectBeijing, China Launched in October 2004Xinfengda Technology Group is the project builderUsing large scale advanced wind power generation units from Germany400,000 KW with 2 billion KWh generation capacity2 Phases to be completed in 2006 and 2008

Efficiency
“Green” construction accelerating
A kilowatt saved is a kilowatt produced
Target 50% less energy use/sq foot from 1980s
All the major Western players are already there: Trane, Carrier, York, Delta, GE, Honeywell, Siemens, Caterpillar, Cummins
Possible areas of investment opportunity
Advanced roofing/building materials
BIPV (building integrated photovoltaics)
Insulation and prefab products
Heat recovery systems/variable speed drives
Power conserving lamps
Energy efficiency can mean rapid payback
Century Prosper Center155,000 m2 twin office towerBeijing Central Business DistrictMain green strategies: high performance chiller with energy recovery system, low emissivity window glazing, automatic dimming lighting, reduced lighting densityAnnual energy Savings – 12 million kWhAnnual cost Savings – $ 1 millionSimple payback period – 1.1 years

Clean Coal
Coal gasification-based technologiesGasification technologies can supply electricity and liquid fuels as well as hydrogen and other chemicals and greatly reduce pollution
China is ideal candidate
Rich coal resources
Existing power and chemical industries
R&D ability
Positioned to acquire IP and become manufacturer of core equipment
Could become world leader
High Risk / High Reward
