10 All company clients using G and C1 tariffs will be covered by AMI AMI Project coverage at Energa-Operator Customer groups: Individual customers 2.5 million Business recipients 300 thousand Scope of deployment: AMI application Telecommunication functions Installation of energy balance meters Installation of energy consumption meters Deployment of AMI at ENERGA-OPERATOR is the most extensive project of this type planned in Poland

11 Currently, we are at the first stage of AMI deployment Project schedule Checkpoint Project stages Q3Q4Q1Q2Q3Q4Q1Q2Q3Q4Q1Q2Q3Q4Q1Q2Q3Q4Q1Q2Q3Q4Q1Q2Q3Q4Q1Q2Q3Q4 Deployment preparation Programme management Stage I Stage I under way Stage I verification Stage II Stage III Stage IV Further stages depend on regulatory decisions Stage V Stage VI Stage VII Stage VIII Stage IX 11

12 3 locations have been chosen as Stage I task sites Drawsko Pomorskie Hel Kalisz Installation of 100 thousand meters is planned under Stage I Hel a base for the Smart Grid Project, intended to verify system operation in the area with a varying land development intensity. Installation of some 30 thousand meters. Kalisz intended for verification of WiMAX technology in the urban area with a high development intensity. Installation of some 35 thousand meters. Base for the Smart Grid Project Urban development area Rural development area Drawsko Pomorskie region chosen for PLC technology verification on low and medium voltage lines in the area with a dispersed land development pattern. Selection of three different locations will enable verification of various communication technologies recommended for AMI

13 The contracting system is expected to eliminate dependence on suppliers Guidelines for selection of contractors Energy consumption and balance meters Connectivity layer Installation of meters Installation of telecommun ication systems Application development and delivery of IT hardware Legal / managerial support Assumed minimum of suppliers 3 3 For each of PLC and imax technologies Energa Group resources Energa Group resources 1 1/1 Selection of AMI connectivity layer contractors and suppliers of meters will occur in two stages: framework agreements and delivery contracts

14 Standardization and interoperability

15 The AMI system will be open-standard based Zone A TAN A TCP/IP required Zone B TAN B TCP/IP required Zone C TCP / IP recommended Zone D MV/LV Meter Main supply terminal MV/LV Information delivered in a close-to-real time Control information delivered in a time up to 3 seconds Control information delivered in a time up to 1 minute Information delivered in a close-to-real time Information received in a close-to-real time Control information received in a time up to 3 seconds Reading information received in a time up to 1 minute Control information received in a time up to 1 minute Reading information received in a time up to 15 minutes Information received in a close-to-real time Assumed data transmission concentration points Open communication protocols for all connectivity layers Co-operation with meters and hubs of various manufacturers Any meter communication protocols will be operational under the system

16 With TCP/IP protocol, any telecom technology can be used Standardization of interconnection points Interchangeability of telecommunication technologies Standardization of interconnection points Router at the MV station Ethernet Modem at the MV station Modem at the MV station PLC MV Cable connection, e.g. ADSL, optical fiber, dial-up lines, other Microwave transmission line Modem at the main power supply point Modem at the main power supply point Ethernet Ethernet TAN network router at the main power supply point TAN EOP network Router at the MV station Modem at the MV station Modem at the main power supply point Router at the MV station Modem at the MV station IP networks of Internet providers, cable TVs Modem at the MV station Wireless networks, e.g. GSM, WiMax, WiFi

17 The Project plan provides for purchasing compatible equipment from various suppliers Delivery of intermediate devices and meters from 3 suppliers Intermediate devices and meters installed by one provider within one geographical location (MV/LV station) The supplier obliged to hand over equipment s technical specifications and licences at ENERGA-OPERATOR s disposal

18 Key business aspects

19 Deployment of AMI: to the advantage of all energy market participants Deployment of AMI benefit and cost areas Producers TSO DSO Seller Recipient Optimized expenses Growing share of base-load generation Reduced costs of innvestment Reduced risk of unsuccessful projects Reduced cost of new projects Reduced cost of energy balance Increased operational efficiency More justifiable projects Increased operational efficiency Reduced cost of energy In a long-term perspective reduced distribution rate Higher revenue Selling new products Selling new products Prosumer model created Cost of deployment System installation Cost of designing the system Cost of maintenance Cost of connectivity Cost of financing
