4 ALSTOM GRID POWERS INDUSTRY High power for ferrous metals Reliable power for building materials The ferrous metals industry not only consumes vast amounts of electricity, but also uses production processes that are reliant on having a dependable power supply. Demand for quality building materials will surge in the decades to come as the world struggles to keep pace with the fast development of emerging economies and responds to the needs of the booming global population. Stepping up to these challenges, Alstom Grid has taken a leading role in providing complete power distribution systems. Starting at the power intake from transmission lines, these systems move power progressively through to the main receiving substations (MRSS) at 420/220/110 kv level, onward to the load block distribution substations (LBDS) at 33/12/6.6 kv level, and up to each electrical load centre of the raw material handling yard, sinter plant, blast furnace, steel smelting shop, rolling and processing plants. Using sophisticated and full-blown SCADA systems, we assure harmonious and efficient monitoring and operation of all substations from HV down to LV feeders. We also provide real-time information to operators and plant management on the electrical system status. Materials such as cement, float glass and construction steel are vital for the construction of residential, business and commercial real estate as well as IT and telecom needs. Alstom Grid is well positioned to execute the electrical power distribution of small to large cement plants, from the handling of raw materials, through to lignite mills, raw mills, kilns. For the float glass industry we provide full electrical distribution systems for medium to large capacity plants, from utilities to batch plants, float baths, annealing, cooling baths and special transformers for the furnace. Our integrated iron and steel plant offer includes advanced Static VAR Compensation Systems and furnace transformers, while for ferro alloy plants (nickel, chromium, manganese), our offer includes rectifier stations for the DC arc furnaces). In addition, we use capacitor-based filters across the network and undertake electrical network studies across the HV/MV/LV network. Stable power for non-ferrous metals Continuous power for the processing and manufacturing industry As for ferrous metal producers, Alstom Grid also provides complete power distribution systems for plants producing non-ferrous metals such as aluminium, copper, zinc, cobalt. From automobiles to electronics, chemicals to plastic and fibres, Alstom Grid helps a diverse range of manufacturing and processing industries to address their electrical power supply needs. Specific to these plants is the electrolysis process used for smelting, which requires huge volumes of DC power to be reliably supplied. Our HV/MV/LV integrated electrical turnkey solutions and automation products are behind the successful operation of many leading manufacturing and processing industries across the world. These include automobile plants in Germany, Russia and China; tyre plants in Brazil, eastern Europe and India; electronic chip plants in Singapore and chemical and plastic plants in Eurasia. Our HV/MV/LV distribution systems for non-ferrous metals begin right at the mining head, leading on to the refining plant before the smelting and rolling mills. Importantly however, for the electrolysis process, we provide complete DC connection substations, including the quality rectifiers and associated rectifier power transformer. The systems also feature remote and local control cubicles and DC busbars with protection, as well as advanced high performance controllers with adaptive algorithms for the high current rectifiers. In doing all of the above we are helping plants to guarantee their production of both ferrous and non-ferrous metals. With many of these industries forecasting high growth in coming years, it is only natural that Alstom Grid will be a key player and partner in their inter-continental development. Our substantial service portfolio and network of 1,200 service personnel deployed across the world enables Alstom Grid to keep your plants up and running, leaving you to focus your attention on what you do best.

5 ALSTOM GRID POWERS INFRASTRUCTURE Safe power for airports Constant power for railways The safety and reliability of electricity supplies at airports is non-negotiable. For this reason, airports have some of the strictest standards for power supply and lighting of any infrastructure in the world. Rail and underground transport is projected to grow by nearly 5% annually until 2020, reducing the carbon footprint by encouraging greater public transportation. With the number of commercial departures expected to double globally over the next 20 years, the demands on airport systems will become even greater. Given the critical importance of a reliable supply, many airports have chosen Alstom Grid to equip their electrical power systems. These include air-side and passenger-side terminal substations at modern airports such as Munich, Berlin, Delhi and Hamburg, with many more to follow. To guarantee power system reliability and performance sustainability, Alstom Grid offers tailed expert services, including long-term maintenance. Alstom Grid will play a vital role in the growth of these railway systems, providing both the AC and DC electrical solutions to keep these undergrounds, tramways, freight corridors and high-speed rail services on track. These solutions cover system engineering, switchyards, quality converter and rectifier transformers, trackside transformers, booster or autotransformers, and SVC and protection. We also provide on-board transformers for rolling stock equipment. As reliability and performance are key for railways, Alstom Grid supports operators by providing comprehensive services and long-term partnership. Distributed power for sea ports Robust power for water A modern port integrates a sophisticated array of services, including materials handling and storage, logistics management, transport and distribution, as well as ship-related operations. As the global population grows, so does the requirement for drinking water. However, water related projects are emerging as major consumers of electrical power. These include crosscountry water pipelines with booster pumping stations, water grids, city water distribution networks and water desalination plants. However, with stringent environmental regulations now coming into force to reduce pollution and noise, passenger cruise terminals and container ports are obliged to reconfigure the electrical systems behind these services. This means switching their electrical connections over from diesel power plants onboard ships to shore-based electrical clean power. As a promoter of clean and green technology, Alstom Grid is helping ports to respond to this challenge by developing a complete HV shore connection system based on power electronics. For bulk material seaports, our offer includes the design, engineering, manufacturing, testing, installation and maintenance of the whole electrical system for conveyer systems, jetties, transfer towers, mobile machines and stockyards. Alstom Grid provides full turnkey electrical connections to city utility companies (for electricity and water) and large desalination plants. These connections, which use HV/MV substations, boosting substations and data acquisition stations, are equipped with full SCADA systems that enable monitoring and control.
