1 FUTURE ENERGY SURVEY 2013 Shell Indonesia Surveying conducted by Ipsos, commissioned by Shell Indonesia

2 Shell Future Energy Survey 2013 Key Findings 2 FUTURE ENERGY SURVEY 2013 Introduction A total of 1017 individuals have been surveyed across six cities in Indonesia, to assess their views on the future of energy, in the Shell Future Energy Survey Surveying was conducted by Ipsos in March 2013, commissioned by Shell Indonesia. City Jakarta 354 Bandung 152 Surabaya 204 Makassar 152 Medan 155 Total number people surveyed The data was collected through face-to-face surveys with individuals, and has been weighted at an age, gender and ethnicity level to ensure sample representativeness, within cities. Data has also been weighted at a total city level to ensure the total is representative of the population of each city.

3 Shell Future Energy Survey 2013 Key Findings 3 KEY FINDINGS A total of 8 in 10 # Indonesian respondents consider future energy needs a very important issue. Solar energy is the most desired source to derive future energy from (46%)^, closely followed by natural gas (43%)^. Approximately 1 in 2 Indonesian respondents (52%) think the most important factor in building future energy solutions is collaboration, followed by effective government policy (22%) and innovation (14%). Government is considered to have the biggest role to play in creating a better energy future (69%)^, followed by the Indonesian general public (63%)^. Almost all (98%) # of Indonesian respondents consider it important or very important to reduce CO 2 emissions.
