1 INNOVATIONS IN SOLAR PUMPING TECHNOLOGY SOLAR RO PLANTS S-RO WORLD S FIRST DIRECT SOLAR TO RO PLANTS SolarOpia Inc.

2 ABOUT SPI SolarOpia SPI (Solar Pumping Inverter-VFD) represents a new generation of solar pumping that employs solar VFD technology to directly operate pumps up to 500 HP from Solar PV arrays. These systems can operate all types of pumps in city scale water plants, sewage plants, and large RO plants. Solar DC AC Pump type independent ( no need to change existing pumps to use SPI technology) Grid Power independent ( operates pumps directly from PV arrays) Operate pumps 24 hours a day in hybrid Solar-AC power 40% more efficient than commercial solar systems in operating pumps EFFICIENT SOLAR PUMPING Conventional solar inverters (Off and On Grid) are not suited to operate pumps they would need four separate components (Solar Inverter, Transformer, VFD, and Pump Controller) which translates into 20%-30% of solar power loses. SPI solar pumping technology operates pumps directly from PV plants - it eliminates power conversion loses and eliminates extra equipment costs (see the diagram below). Overall, SPI technology reduces PV requirement by 20% and the solar equipment needs for pumping by 40%. Solar DC Direct to SPI Solar Inverter Transformer VFD 3 Phase AC SPI eliminates all these systems to operate pumps BB GRID Pump Controller 2014 Energy Globe Recipient SOLAR HANDLES 100% DAILY PLANT PRODUCTION S-RO systems have a great economic advantage it reduces RO operating cost by 50% compared to grid or diesel generators. Solar can operate RO plants at 100% daily design capacity during 6-8 hours, and uses AC power (if it is available) as back up at night time in hybrid mode (solar and AC).

3 SOLAR S-RO PLANTS SolarOpia offers solar dedicated to operate small to large scale RO pumps directly from PV arrays. These systems use new solar pump inverter-vfd technology, that can operate all pumps in any scale RO plant with solar power more efficiently than existing solar technology. S-RO plants have the following advantages: Operate all Plant pumps Off-Grid (in Rural Plant Areas) Operate Plants 24/7 in hybrid Solar-AC mode (in Urban Areas) Pump type independent (no need to change existing plant infrastructure to operate with solar) Extremely efficient (average 40% higher efficiency than conventional solar power systems) S-RO EASILY INTEGRATES WITH EXISTING RO PLANTS S-RO operates existing plants without a need to make changes to infrastructure. The Solar Power Bus (SPB) is added to the RO plant and together with the existing AC Power Bus (APB) they feed the SPI-VFD systems that operate plant pumps. Whether the plant is operated manually, or by SCADA, no changes in the plant operation is required. SPI systems can be easily integrated with the facility control room using standard industrial communication protocols. S-RO simply adds the solar power source to the SPI-VFD systems to operate the plant with clean solar power during the day, and grid power at night. Solar Power Bus (SPB) AC Power Bus (APB) PLANT FEED PUMPS DESALINATION PLANT DISTRIBUTION PLANT SPI can be easily operated remotely from Control Room with standard protocols

8 THE ECONOMY OF S-RO PLANTS RO plants are energy intensive, the production of 1AF (about 1,000 m3) consumes an average 400 kwh. This power consumption represents 70%-90% of the plants total operating costs. S-RO reduces this cost dramatically by about 50% or more making RO plants affordable, economic, and environmentally clean facilities. The cost and savings data for 1 AFPD (10,000 m3/day) production is demonstrated below for S-RO power, diesel co-plant power, and Utility grid power. The operating cost is estimated at 15 years (S-RO solar plants operate from 15 to 25 years). S-RO reduces 76% the cost of the diesel co-plants, and 55% the grid power operating costs. Plant Power Source Operating Cost ($USD) (1AFPD for 15 years)* Saving in Operating Cost ($USD) (15 years) Diesel Thermal Co-Plant Power $600,000 $0 Utility Grid Power $400,000 $200,000 S-RO Solar Plant $175,000 $425,000 * The cost is calculated based on production 1AF (about 1,000m3) at 400 kwh 8 hours/day for 15 years.
