10 Agenda Xebec Overview & Product Offering Installation Base & Dairy Digester Case Studies Key drivers of biogas upgrading economics

11 Key Drivers of Biogas Upgrading Economics 1. End-use 2. Economies of scale 3. Quality of feed biogas H2S, other 4. Location & Logistics

12 Key Economic Drivers End Use Gasoline ($3.00/gal) Diesel ($2.80/gal) CNG ($1.79/gge) Natural Gas ($8/mmBtu) $0 $5 $10 $15 $20 $25 $30 Energy Price ($/GJ) - Retail or Commercial Source: EIA;

13 Key Economic Drivers Economies of Scale Biogas Upgrading Cost ($/mmbtu) Product biomethane Biogas flow Overview (million SCFD) Source: Electrigaz, Xebec estimates

14 Key Economic Drivers Biogas Quality Key biogas quality drivers: H2S content in raw biogas N2, O2 content H2S removal: H2S levels from Dairy manure can spike >1000 ppm Mitigation strategies in digester recommended Area of potential improvement

15 Key Economic Drivers Location & Logistics Production of CNG from biogas: Production relatively constant, CNG demand intermittent Mismatch between location of production & consumption Implications: Use gas grid for load balancing Wheeling through gas pipelines to existing CNG stations Gas utilities have a key role to play in biogas-to-cng Production of LNG from biogas offers greater flexibility
