9 ENERGY CONSUMPTION - Main Consumption in Buenos Aires Province - Main Energy source are still Thermal power plants 9 Source: CAMMESA INFORME ANUAL 2011

10 5.1% increase in Electrical demand in 2011 This increase of the demand was compensated through increase of Thermal power plants Possibilities for wind energy YERALY increase of ~5% of the Electrical demand means a yearly new installed capacity of ~1.500 MW. TO meet this yearly demand it would be necessary to install ~ 3000 MW OF WIND POWER. 10 Source: CAMMESA INFORME ANUAL 2011

Electrical demand means a yearly new installed capacity of ~1.500 MW.
