5 Ambitious despite excess of green energy Increasing energy usage Stabile emissions Ambitious CO2 emission targets

6 Setting standards for global ambitions Early mover Global commitment Climate agreement 2012 Photo left: SCANPIX MÅ KJØPES; Photo right: Alexander Ottesen

7 Proven green solutions fill demands A surging need of green energy Global opportunites Ready Norwegian solutions

8 Kan SLETTES INTRO FLYTTET TIL NESTE SLIDE Norway as an energy nation Renewable energy segments Doing business with Norway

9 Market segments Hydropower Wind power Offshore wind power Solar energy Ocean energy Bioenergy Geothermal power Energy storage Smart Grid Green data centres Sustainable buildings Clean water Energy efficiency in industry Waste treatment Sustainable shipping Low emission oil and gas production Sustainable transportation Green services 9

10 Hydropower 98,5% of electricity in Norway comes from hydropower Rainpower (former Kværner Brug): Leading global supplier of turbines for high water falls Advisor/engineering of hydropower projects, supplier of critical technology, and investor in hydropower projects Photo: Katrine Vefferstad

11 Wind power Second largest renewable power source enduring extreme conditions (wind, speed, icing, complex landscapes) Blaaster AS testing 3MW new low-cost direct driven turbine Wind turbine technology, grid integration, power predictions, farm development, certification and investment Photo: MANGLER KREDIT

12 Offshore wind power offshore turbines will be installed in Europe within 2020 Statoil Hywind: The world s first full-scale 2,3 MW floating wind turbine 10 km off the Norwegian coastline Sub-sea installations, foundations, submarine power cables, offshore substations, installation vessels Photo: Innovation Norway 12

13 Solar energy Norway has been a pioneer in photovoltaics, one of the fastest-growing sources for renewable power Elkem Solar: 7500 mty production of super clean solar grade silcon with ¼ of the energy consumption Metallurgical R&D, production of solar grade silicon, monocrystaline wafers, sale of production technology Photo: REC
