Iowa Stored Energy Park APPA Engineering and Operations April 16, 2007 Sam Shepard Electricity and Air Storage Enterprises CAPTURING THE POWER OF NATURE
At Night In the northwest quadrant So -- How do we move the wind ? The Wind blows mightily in Iowa
Project Summary Economics Technology Support Conclusions Presentation Overview
Iowa Stored Energy Park An aquifer based storage system Combustion turbine technology Bio-derived fuel compatible CAPTURING THE POWER OF NATURE
Storage Generation Compression Three parts to a CAES system
Two existing CAES plants use mined salt caverns ISEP will use an aquifer Similar to natural gas storage techniques Storage
Compression– Separate and Replace Combustor- similar to existing Expander-similar to existing High and low pressure sections Generation- Conventional Combustion Technology
Two separate combustors High and Low Pressure Investigating use of two fuels Natural gas Bio-derived fuels Generation- Fuel
Use existing high efficiency equipment Proven track record – Air Separation Industry Compression
Increases off-peak system load Utilizes transmission when line ratings are high Provides voltage and frequency regulation During either compression or generation So how does CAES work with Wind ?
State of Iowa US DOE Iowa municipal utilities Funding to Date
Assessed all candidate sites in Iowa Completed seismic testing on best 2 sites Selected best site – west of Des Moines Building ownership / off-take portfolio Preparing to drill test wells and test fluid flow Status
Iowa municipals Local residents US DOE Supporters
Preliminary analysis confirms feasibility Supports renewable energy needs Adaptation of proven technology Meets electric system technical/ market needs Summary

Cheapest energy 10% < C.F. < 50% Operational flexibility Enhance value of wind energy Protect against high gas prices Protect against carbon tax Why ISEP?
Expander Output 103 MW Compressor Load -59 MW Gross CT output 44 MW Technology Conventional Combustion Turbine
Expander Gross Output 103MW Air Flow optimization 9MW High Pressure expander 22MW CAES Gross Output 134MW CAES Machine
CAES 1 kWh out = 0.75 kWh in plus 4400 Btu fuel With wind driving compression Total heat rate = 6900Btu/kWh (HHV) F Class CT Simple cycle 10000Btu/kWh (HHV) Combined cycle 7700Btu/kWh(HHV) Thermodynamics
Proven source of renewable energy Control costs by owning/investing in generation source Good for the environment Mix of generation sources helps risk mitigation Consumers/owners want us to invest in renewable energy ISEP — A Great Fit For Algona
Owned wind generation since 1991 Want storage from ISEP Renewable goal: 20% by 2020 Intermediate capacity needs ISEP helps Waverly meet its goals ISEP — Meeting Waverly’s Renewable Goals
Increased demand anticipated Federal mandates likely Trends, challenges, and needs point to ISEP Why The Department Of Energy Backs ISEP
TRENDS DIGITIZATION OF SOCIETY ECOLOGICAL CONCERN GROWTH IN ENERGY CONSUMPTION CHALLENGES POWER OUTAGES RENEWABLE MANDATES TRANSMISSION CONGESTION HIGH POWER QUALITY DISPATCHABILITY OF RENEWABLES INCREASED CAPACITY FACTOR NEEDS SOLUTION ELECTRICAL ENERGY STORAGE
Iowa Stored Energy Park“It’s The Responsible Thing To Do”What Energy Customers Say… CAPTURING THE POWER OF NATURE
Talked to 600 people All lived in Dallas County A strong majority support the idea We’ve Done Our Homework
Helps reduce/control MY household energy costs Uses a resource (wind) not being used enough Could decrease dependency on foreign energy Could decrease dependency on fossil fuels Is a clean and healthy source of energy Why Dallas County Residents Like ISEP:
Iowa Stored Energy ParkISEP Funding So Far…Leveraged $800,000 Municipal FundsReceived $3,500,000 Federal Funds CAPTURING THE POWER OF NATURE
Leaving Research Phase Entering Development Phase Moving Forward Research Development Construction ending 2007 -2009 2009 - 2011
ISEP Answers wind’s shortcomings Diversifies the portfolio Helps meet intermediate capacity needs Helps manage coming renewable mandates Conclusions
