While having minimal cost differences with conventional cast in-situ products, precast products
also offer the following advantages:
Simplify on-site construction process and reduce wastages; hence generating time and cost savings
for developers
Increase productivity; hence reducing the number of foreign workers and thus translating into cost
efficiencies for developers
Better quality control as precast works undergo internal and external quality testing

INVESTMENTS
Koon Holdings Limited Investments - Tesla
Key Facts
Owns 48.9% ordinary shares and 18.9% preference shares in Tesla, for AUD 6.6 million. Tesla
has been allotted capacity credits to generate power by Western Australian Independent
Market Operator (“IMO”), allowing it to access and supply electricity to the state grid system
Capacity credits provide an incentive for the initial capital investment by granting power
generators a recurring source of income
Commence operation of its first 9.9MW diesel power plant in Western Australia (AUD 7.0-8.0
million or SGD 9.3-10.6 million). It has also secured sites for the construction of three additional
9.9MW power plants which will be completed in the next 12 months
Opportunity to leverage on Tesla’s network to tap into the infrastructure industry in Australia
Two-Tier Revenue Structure upon
Operational of the Power Plants
Page 30
Koon Holdings Limited Investments - Tesla
Industry Outlook
The Western Australia market has seen record breaking power consumption levels over the
recent years, as the state experienced varying weather conditions and growth in mining
activities.
Power consumption hit a high of 3,790MW during the summer, resulting in more than 1,000
households without power
In Australia, when there is insufficient capacity to meet the electricity demand, the government
will hold an auction to solicit bids for supply of electricity to the government. Maximum
Reserve Capacity Price is the highest price government is willing to pay for any
additional electricity supplied per MW annually (see chart on next slide)
Page 31
Tesla’s power plants are tailored towards meeting peak
demand needs; there will be further opportunity for
increased revenues from electricity generation in the future
