Investing in the Energy Transition: Potential and Complexity in Abundance
THOUGHTS ON “ABUNDANCE”
• The future energy market will struggle to adapt to unprecedented intermittent supply and fossil reserves - a world in which energy is free or more than free during many, but not all, times of peak demand
• Value in this model shifts from volumetric production to:
• Delivery • Control • Consumer brand/ relationship/ trust • Regulatory and political influence • Optionality
DER is not just about PV

• Financing – Direct system ownership more likely as costs fall and if alternative, low cost financing becomes available
• Regional vs. national footprint – Regional players are growing faster
• Cross-selling – Other providers may enjoy lower origination costs
• Multi-DER offer – Product innovation – hardware, software, contract design
• Channel competition – DIY/big box retailers offer lower installed cost
Large national PV installers are not realizing scale efficiencies in customer acquisition

+ Abundant low cost materials; simple, easy-to-assemble design minimizes manufacturing capex
+ 100% DoD maximizes capacity utilization for lower $ per usable KWh
+ Manufacturing does not require clean room; uses commoditized equipment and processes
– Costly and scarce materials; Complex product design (potentially >100 parts)
– Typical 70% DoD results in greater cost per usable kWh
– Expensive and specialized facility, clean room for purity tolerances/safety; Significant capex for specialized equipment
Eos cost lower at lower volume and capex; DoD range widens gap in cost per usable kWh;

Radar Controlled Obstruction Lighting for Wind Farms
Aircraft Detection System (ADS)
October 20th, 2016
Laufer Wind Proprietary
Major Impacts 2017-2018
Increase at the state and county level in the mandatory use of radar lighting on wind farms

– Eagle Tracking
– Air Traffic Control in-fill

Laufer Wind Proprietary
Addressing #1 Impediment to Wind Development
34
The FAA and other international Civil Aviation Authorities mandate that tall structures, including wind turbines, must be marked with flashing obstruction lights to prevent aircraft collisions.
Obstruction lights create a visual nuisance, the #1 cited impediment to wind farm development.*
*Iberdrola Study: A Statistical Analysis of Opposition to Wind Farms & Successful Outreach Techniques
Laufer Wind Proprietary
Our Solution
35
Our Aircraft Detection System (ADS) is a radar-controlled lighting technology that allows obstruction lights to be illuminated only for the small fraction of time (typically <2%) when low-flying aircraft are nearby.
For less than 0.5% of Total Project Cost, a Laufer Wind ADS can be the difference between a developer being granted or denied a permit to build a $100MM+ wind farm.
A Laufer Wind ADS is currently operational at the
US National Renewable Energy Lab (NREL).
