ENERGY Efficiency of Cogeneration vs. Conventional Power Generation Cogeneration (also called Combined Heat and Power, CHP) is the joint production of electricity and useful heat. 2

Cogeneration Improves Environment � 99. 5%+ incineration of toxic compounds with turbogenerators � Significantly reduced levels of environmental emissions: % Emissions Reductions* � Carbon dioxide (CO 2) � Nitrogen oxides (NOX) � Particulates 60%+ 95% 100% *Emissions reductions from using gas fired cogeneration vs. conventional coal fired generation 3

Why Generate Electricity from Flare Gas? � Power generation from flare gas presents an opportunity for: � Reduction in emissions of hazardous chemicals � Reduction in Kyoto or other environmental commitments � Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions � Improvement in health through reduction of respiratory disease � Reduced political pressure on the government � Reduced potential for total “brown outs” by contributing distributed electrical energy sources � Revenue generating use of a “free” resource that otherwise causes problems � Just 3 c/k. Wh = $8. 33/GJ 10

Microturbine Generation, Saskatchewan • Installation of 2 x 30 KW microturbines • Units are designed to operate continuously in a grid connect application • Eliminates Continuous Flare (Supplied by Cummins/Capstone) 11

Gas flaring - A Challenging Energy and Environmental Problem � “Gas flaring is one of the most challenging energy and environmental problems facing the world today. …. � Gas flaring reduction has the potential to be a great energy and environmental success story. By creating value from a wasted resource, flare gas reduction enables wider access to energy, improves environmental conditions, and provides economic development for local, provincial, and national governments. ” - Peter C. Evans, Ph. D Director, Global Strategy and Planning General Electric 14
