2. THE PROPOSALS SPI approves the project of a joint-venture with the American partner WPA. The common controlled company, Wind Power France Co. (WPFC), should be headquartered in Toulouse near SPI to reduce transport costs. Important note : concerning the power plant specifications, we have chosen two possible scenarios, depending of the degree of involvement that WPA is looking for. Please compare the two and make any comments. Each scenario includes a description of the power plant, and some technical specifications. To avoid any misunderstanding, financial aspects should be discussed directly with us on the Internet. Remember this document is just a proposal ; we agree to negotiate any term of the contract. 2.1. The Wind energy and the environment in France ⇒ General view : the potential market The potential market is France at first (61 millions of people, about 23% of US population) then Europe (377 millions of people, about 1.43 time the US population). The EU energy market is already liberalized but France keeps its monopoly until 2003. After that, private companies will be granted the right to sell electricity to the 400 biggest French customers. Total liberalization is not in project : France's energy market is controlled by a state-owned company, EDF ("Electricité De France" : Electricity of France), whose employees work under the legal statute of civil servants. They are under the state's protection and are very strongly opposed to a free market which would mean the end of their privileges (job warranty, no effort to adapt their offer to the client, low priced energy for EDF employees, etc.). Consequently, WFPC can produce wind power but cannot sell it directly to the customer : the law obliges to sell it to EDF, which must accept. The price is also fixed by law ; EDF has to buy electricity at 0.22 FRF per kWh. But it sells it to customers at 0.52 FRF per kWh : this comfortable margin and its monopolistic position allow EDF to be one of the world's largest electricity producer. But the company currently does not use wind as a source of energy : 85% comes from nuclear power and 20% from oil or gas. So EDF is not a competitor, but the only client and maybe a partner : it often invests in NPE producers. France indeed has also a large number of small producers that operate hydro-electrical dams or solar plants. For further information, see the web site : www.edf.fr . ⇒ Marketing analysis Why do we want to become one of the most important European suppliers of electricity ? The industry of the electricity asks for many investments, furthermore in France ( our basic market) EDF's monopoly checks any will to attack there. Nevertheless we have the certainty which we shall be able to reach our objective. A study of the International Agency of the Energy (an agency of the OECD) recommend in France to intensify the efforts for the opening of the market, according to it " EDF is ready to face a more intense competition ", notably because ' " during the five years which come, 37 of the nuclear reactors will be paid off, and will produce some electricity in a cost of extremely weak exploitation ". Of more the French government made recently the decision to accelerate the opening of the French market of the electricity: 2400 sites consuming 34 % of the electricity sold in France are going so to benefit from the liberalization. France goes more fast so than what suggests her European law. Consequently we think that it is convenient for WPA to tap now in the French market. Which are our forces on this market in transformation ? ⇒ Porter’s five forces What are the forces driving electricity industry competition? Potential entrants : WPA … Suppliers Market Buyers : EDF + 2400 sites Subsitutes : Solar energy producers Suppliers : they can exert bargaining power over participants in an industry by threatening to raise prices or reduce the quality of purchased goods and services. Buyers : compete with the industry by forcing down prices, bargaining for higher quality or more services. ⇒ WPA’s analysis : the value chain WPA has a strong value chain, it controls all links of the chain. Furnitures R&D Production Marketing Sell Dpt customers ⇒ Our technology : life’s cycle Introduction Growth Maturity Decline Nuclear Wind power Solar Our technology is in growth, we can hope that the market will ask for more and more renewable energy. What can we expect for the future ? With the deregulation, EDF will be weakened. When we shall have made profitable our first site it will be necessary to multiply our implantations in France, we should besides intensify our corporate communication to make known our brand and our technology, notably with authorities but also with the large public. Due to the liberalization of the European markets we can also intend to tap in the other markets, notably because France does not offer many geographic possibilities. Maybe shall be able to tap us in the Spanish market in first, because it offers many possibilities. As for EDF, we can suppose that it will be dismantled (as ATT in the American telecom). We shall be able to then, if financial means allow it to us, to acquire them potential in the wind energy. It will also be necessary for us to intensify our R&D, to improve constantly our tools, so we shall be able to face technologies. ⇒ Wind power and ecology The production of electricity by wind mills doesn't contribute to the backing of the greenhouse effect (no dismissal of CO2 or methane), to the acidic rains (no dismissals of sulfur or nitrogen), and to the production of loss poisonous or radioactive. The production calls on materials and classics processes. Besides, a modern wind mill repays in less than 6 months of working the energy that it was necessary to manufacture it and to install it. The installation on the site is fast and don't generate any irreversible disruptions. Note that all project of wind power station must be the object of a visual impact analysis (integration in the landscape), resonant and on the avifauna. Projects of more than 12 millions of francs must be the object of an authorized impact survey. Concerning the resonant impact, wind mills give out a noise that has mainly for origin the slip of air on blades. A machine of thick power (500 kW) produces an acoustic pressure level of about 50 dB(A) at 150 meters, either the equivalent of the noise in an office. The noise decreases quickly when one moves away. A wind mill is generally inaudible at 400 meters. Formulas of propagation are applied systematically at the time of studies of impacts and permit to anticipate all hindrance for the nearest neighbors. ⇒ Reducing the investment : the subsidies Companies can take advantage of financial assistance and tax incentives offered by the government, local authorities and some industrials. In order to obtain subsidies, the company must fulfil several conditions depending on : • the geographical localisation • the activities’ field, • the number of jobs created… The array below lists the financial assistance and tax incentives that can be expected for our project : Subsidies/ Loans/Grants PAT subsidy (Prime Aménagement Territoire) PCRE subsidy (Prime Régional à la Création d’Entreprise) PRE subsidy (Prime Régional l’Emploi) Aids for environmental projects Training Assistance Real Estate subsidies Objectives Conditions Amount Organization DATAR Contribution to region economic development - a minimum of 20 jobs created - total investment > 20MF - location : Brittany - 70MF per new job - The Pat subsidy must not exceed 25% of the investment Support for creation of enterprise - all sectors - location : Brittany - a minimum of 2 jobs created - 3 to 6 jobs created : 150 000 FF - more than 7 jobs : 200 000 FF Regional Authorities Support for employment creation - all sectors - location : Brittany - a minimum of 2 jobs created The amount depends on the location but must not exceed 40 000FF per jobs.

If it hits the leaves of trees and bushes, it will create a random mixture of high frequencies, often called white noise. The wind may also set surfaces in vibration, as sometimes happens with parts of a building, a car or even an (engineless) glider airplane. These surfaces in turn emit their own sound. If the wind hits a sharp edge, it may produce a pure tone. ⇒ Rotor Blade Sound Emission and the Fifth Power Law Rotor blades make a slight swishing sound which you may hear if you are close to a wind turbine at relatively low wind speeds. Rotor blades must brake the wind to transfer energy to the rotor. In the process they cause some emission of white noise. If the surfaces of the rotor blades are very smooth (which indeed they must be for aerodynamic reasons), the surfaces will emit a minor part of the noise. Most of the noise will originate from the trailing (back) edge of the blades. Careful design of trailing edges and very careful handling of rotor blades while they are mounted, have become routine practice in the industry. Other things being equal, sound pressure will increase with the fifth power of the speed of the blade relative to the surrounding air. You will therefore notice that modern wind turbines with large rotor diameters have very low rotational speed. 2.1.2. Mechanical Noise from Wind Turbines ⇒ Mechanical Sources of Sound Emission Mechanical noise, i.e. metal components moving or knocking against each other may originate in the gearbox, in the drive train (the shafts), and in the generator of a wind turbine. Machines from the early 1980s or before do emit some mechanical noise, which may be heard in the immediate surroundings of the turbine, in the worst cases even up to a distance of 200 m (600 ft.) A survey on research and development priorities of Danish wind turbine manufacturers conducted in 1995, however, showed that no manufacturer considered mechanical noise as a problem any longer, and therefore no further research in the area was considered necessary. The reason was, that within three years noise emissions had dropped to half their previous level due to better engineering practices. ⇒ Quieting Wind Turbine Gearboxes Gearboxes for wind turbines are no longer standard industrial gearboxes, but they have been adapted specifically for quiet operation of wind turbines. One way of doing this is to ensure that the steel wheels of the gearbox have a semi-soft, flexible core, but a hard surface to ensure strength and long time wear. The way this is done is basically to heat the gear wheels after their teeth have been ground, and then let them cool off slowly while they are packed in a special high carbon-content powder. The carbon will then migrate into the surface of the metal. This ensures a high carbon content and high durability in the surface of the metal, while the steel alloy in the interior remains softer and more flexible. ⇒ Structural Dynamics Analysis When going by car, plane, or train, you may have experienced the resonance of different components, e.g. how the dashboard of a car or a train window may amplify noise. An important consideration, which enters into the turbine design process today, is the fact that the rotor blades may act as membranes that may retransmit noise vibrations from the nacelle and tower. If you look at the chassis frame of the nacelle on some of the large wind turbines on the market today, you may discover some odd holes which were drilled into the chassis frame for no apparent reason. These holes were precisely made to ensure that the frame will not vibrate in step with the other components in the turbine. ⇒ Sound Insulation Sound insulation plays a minor role in most wind modern turbines on the market today, although it can be useful to minimize some medium- and high-frequency noise. In general, however, it seems to be more efficient to attack noise problems at the source, in the structure of the machine itself. It thus appears that noise is not a major problem for the industry, given the distance to the closest neighbors (usually a minimum distance of about 7 rotor diameters or 300 m = 1000 ft. is observed). The concepts of sound perception and measurement are not widely known in the public, but they are fairly easy to understand, once you get to grips with it. 2.1.3. Birds and Wind Turbines Birds are seldom bothered by wind turbines. Radar studies from Tjaereborg in the western part of Denmark, where a 2 megawatt wind turbine with 60 meters rotor diameter is installed, show that birds - by day or night - tend to change their flight route some 100-200 meters before the turbine and pass above the turbine at a safe distance. The only known site with major bird collision problems is located in the Altamont Pass in California. A "wind wall" of turbines on lattice towers is literally closing off the pass. There, a few bird kills from collisions have been reported. Some birds get accustomed to wind turbines very quickly, others take a somewhat longer time. The possibilities of erecting wind farms next to bird sanctuaries therefore depend on the species in question. Migratory routes of birds will usually be taken into account when sitting wind farms. 2.1.4. Components and providers ⇒ Reasons for choosing smaller turbines 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. The local electrical grid may be too weak to handle the electricity output from a large machine. This may be the case in remote parts of the electrical grid with low population density and little electricity consumption in the area. There is less fluctuation in the electricity output from a wind park consisting of a number of smaller machines, since wind fluctuations occur randomly, and therefore tend to cancel out. Again, smaller machines may be an advantage in a weak electrical grid. The cost of using large cranes, and building a road strong enough to carry the turbine components may make smaller machines more economic in some areas. Several smaller machines spread the risk in case of temporary machine failure, e.g. due to lightning strikes. Aesthetical landscape considerations may sometimes dictate the use of smaller machines. Large machines, however, will usually have a much lower rotational speed, which means that one large machine really does not attract as much attention as many small, fast moving rotors. ⇒ Realization of the wind turbines The market of the wind energy is in strong growth. One notes that the 3/4 of costs are bound to the wind turbine itself. While taking a middle cost of the MW installed of 7 MF (45 MUSD), the wind turbine represent therefore about 5 MF (35 MUSD) by MW. The wind turbine structure's costs is retailed below: Wind mill Road construction Electricity Lifting/transportation Engineering Total 75% 8% 10% 4% 3% 100% All these components call on known and tried technologies can be achieved therefore in France. It represents a potential of economic development, and of employment creation non negligible.

The industrial component of a wind turbine project is bound to the narrow association between the manufacturer and the prime contractor. Interests are reciprocal : new market opening for the manufacturer (WPA, from France), better restraint of the technology for the prime contractor (SPI). It is preferable to have suppliers in its own country in case of problems. The basis principle "At equivalent price, delay and guarantee, preference to the French industrial" will be applied for this project. Industrials implied in the integration of components on the wind mills will be : COMPONENTS SUBCONTRACTOR CMD Gearbox Generator Leroy Somer Tower Petitjean Nacelle Canam Breaks SIME Yaw drive and bearing Rollix French component percentage TOWN Cambrai Beaucourt Troyes Yutz Paris Nantes VALUE 17% 6.5% 21% 6.5% 2% 2% 55% ⇒ Service Department The division and the increase of staff in the service team will be implemented in order to increase customer focus in all areas. Beside the administrative staff service team will also counts many skilled technicians who will take care of all service, maintenance and emergency calls for the WPFC wind turbines. The technicians will always be ready to turn out rapidly in order to keep the WPFC wind turbines available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. From the monitoring room in Toulouse, WPFC will also offer a 24 hours remote surveillance to the customers in order to maximize the production and the availability of the wind turbines. All the functions of the wind turbines will be monitored via PC and telephone modems and analyzed by the service staff. Thus each vital component in the wind turbines will be monitored 24 hours a day. By this surveillance, action could be taken at an early stage and repairs could be carried out while they will be still small. The future will bring great challenges to the service department as WPFC erects a lot of turbines. ⇒ Training program The training will take place at the WPFC headquarter. For organizing the training the WPA Training Department will supervise a training staff with the participation of instructors from the WPA service, Research and Development Department and SPI subcontractors. 1. The first phase of the course will be a management module where all trainees will be trained in the management and the service of big wind farms. In addition, this phase will consist of a training in detailed service procedures, spare parts management and warranty procedures offered by WPFC. 2. After completion of the first common phase for all the trainees, the second phase will be launched with a separation into two classes for training of mechanical trainees and electrical/controller system trainees in order to give them detailed theoretical and practical training. In this phase the mechanical trainees will be trained in the detailed construction of the wind turbine used for the wind farm. Furthermore they will be trained in the practical service of the turbine supervised by the WPFC fitters working at the site, and training in the service, maintenance and repair of the rotor blade as well. The second phase for the electrical trainees will consist of a profound training in the high voltage part and controller system of the turbine, and this was carried out as a combination of class room training and hands on training on the turbine at site. This phase will also consist of some real trouble-shooting where the trainees will be faced with real faults and errors on the turbines simulated by the instructors. This grave will grave the trainees the great opportunity to troubleshoot “the real faults” in the field challenging the skills of all. 3. The third phase of the training course will be the final examination where all trainees will have to demonstrate their gained skills both theoretically and practically in the field. Based on the results the training staff will be able to evaluate all trainees. 4. The fourth and last phase of the training will be programmed for the last day and will consist of feedback and evaluation supervised by the WPA Training Manager, and the day will end with a reception and ceremony. 2.2. PROPOSAL 1 : "BRITTANY MILLENIUM" 2.2.1. Presentation The western Brittany, French region of the more blown, products 4% of electricity that it consumes. The regional potentialities of the wind energy would deserve to be analyzed with bigger interest, notably concerning regional development, creation of economic activity and local development. From data of relief, wind and the different constraints bound to the implantation of wind mills, sites have been marked. On 30 favorable zones it is possible to install a minimum of 100 MW, either about 150 wind mills. These power stations would produce 228 GWh, either the equivalent of the electric consumption, out heating, of 75000 homes. The location of the power plant is in Saint-Brieuc (department 22 called Côte d'Armor ; note that in France a "department" is a geographical division), a small town of Brittany. This location has been chosen due to the strength of the winds and for the high level of subsidies provided by the city and the regional state of Brittany. SPI proposes a deal including the following steps : • creation of a joint Franco-American developing team with WPA's engineers, in order to transfer the company's technology and resolve any communication problems ; • development of a wind power plant based on WPA's technology ; • selection of European manufacturers and creation of technical team to help them in 1) the industrialization process and 2) the respect of French and European environmental and security standards • selection of the plant's place and organization of any geological surveys ; • request for all legal agreements needed ; • building of a 15 MW wind power plant ; • test of the equipment ; • training of WPFC staff and engineers. The total process would take about 18 months : an agreement reached on December 15th, 2000 would allow the wind power plant to open on July 1st, 2002. A 15% security margin has to be taken into account, due to possible technical problems creating delays. 2.2.2. Financial aspects The price of the proposed deal is USD 14 million - fourteen million US dollars. SPI is ready to discuss the payment agenda. The possible schedule could be : 25% at the time of the agreement, 25% 6 months later, 25% 12 months after the agreement and the last 25% at the plant's opening. WPA would have a 49% participation in the WPFC joint venture, and 51% for SPI. The company would be headed by a two manager team, one from WPA and one from SPI. For further details, see the budget part at the end of this document. 2.2.3. Legal aspects The power plant project has to take into account the following criteria : • noise specifications are defined both by the French state, the regional state of Brittany and the city of Saint-Brieuc. The technical data will be given later. They include : a maximum level of noise, a low level of vibrations ; • aesthetics specifications are also defined both by the French state, the regional state of Brittany and the city of Saint-Brieuc. The technical data will be given later. They include : a specific position of the plant in order to fit with the landscape view, a limited choice of colors for the plant (white, light blue). Aggressive colors like red are forbidden (except if they are used in the company's logo) ; • security standards (this sections concerns the plant's location ; for the security standards on the plant itself, please refer to the next section, "Technical aspects") : they are mainly defined by the law, the French Standardization Association (AFNOR : www.afnor.fr ) and the European Standardization Committee (CEN, "Comité Européen de Normalisation"). They include : a security distance of 300 m between the plant and any road or habitation, a low level of electronic emissions. 2.3. PROPOSAL 2 : "RIVIERA WINDS" 2.3.1. Presentation The location of the power plant is in Narbonne, department 11 (Aude). This location has been chosen due to the strength of the winds and for the high level of subsidies provided by the city and the regional state. This location has been chosen due to the strength of the winds and for the high level of subsidies provided by the city and the regional state of Languedoc-Roussillon. SPI proposes a deal including the following steps : • creation of a joint Franco-American developing team with WPA's engineers, in order to transfer the company's technology and resolve any communication problems ; • development of a wind power plant based on WPA's technology ; • selection of European manufacturers and creation of technical team to help them in 1) the industrialization process and 2) the respect of French and European environmental and security standards • selection of the plant's place and organization of any geological surveys ; • request for all legal agreements needed ; • building of a 15 MW wind power plant ; • test of the equipment ; • training of WPFC staff and engineers.

A 15% security margin has to be taken into account, due to possible technical problems creating delays. 2.3.2. Financial aspects The price of the proposed deal is USD 11 million - eleven million US dollars. SPI is ready to discuss the payment agenda. The possible schedule could be : 25% at the time of the agreement, 25% 6 months later, 25% 12 months after the agreement and the last 25% at the plant's opening. WPA would have a 48% participation in the WPFC joint venture, SPI 40% and a local partner 12%. The partner would be an industrial company involved in the development and/or building process, or a financial investor. The advantage for WPA is to reduce its investment by 22% (please compare with the other scenario). WPFC would be headed by a two manager team, one from WPA and one from SPI. For further details, see the budget part at the end of this document. 2.3.3. Legal aspects The power plant project has to take into account the following criteria : • noise specifications are defined both by the French state, the regional state of Languedoc-Roussillon and the city of Narbonne.
