The challenge by 2020 EU Energy Policy 2020 • EU and Member states have set the following targets: • A minimum of 20% reduction of CO2 by 2020 compared to 1990. Possibly extended to 30% if all developed countries participate post 2012. • A 20% energy efficiency target by 2020 compared to a Business as usual scenario. • A 20% renewable energy target of all energy use. • A 10% bio fuel in transport fuel mix.
The challenge by 2020 from 6% to 20% RES 20% 20% 6% 6% Solid biomass is critical to meet the target! Source: VNP
The challenge by 2020 Paper industry as the enabler • Our industry has an unique position: • It is competitive and sustainable (50% of energy consumption based on biomass). • Existing procurement system to handle large volumes of biomass (25% of EU RES used in forest based industry). • Energy generation infrastructure in place. • Highest heat and power efficiency in use (85-90%). • Expertise, knowledge and infrastructure.
Impact on strategy CVG • Executing Mission Statement 2010 • Implementing Energy Transition / Mitigating energy profile • Development of specialties (NBD) for niche markets
ROCE Comparison CVG and Peer Group
Outlook • StoraEnso Board: “The outlook for fine paper demand and prices remains healthy, and steady growth in demand is anticipated, except for the seasonal slowdown due to summer holidays. Looking ahead for the rest of this year we anticipate further fibre cost increases” • UPM-Kymmene Board: “In Europe, demand for printing papers is forecast to grow slightly from the corresponding quarter last year, while in North-America demand is expected to decrease. Cost pressures from wood fibre and the strengthened euro are new challenges for the industry.”
Outlook • M-Real Board: “The demand for office paper and packaging paperboard, as well as their price development is expected to remain good in the third quarter of 2007. M-Real has announced price increases for coated and uncoated fine paper in the autumn. No relief in production input costs is in sight. Under current conditions, the full-year cost increases in 2007 are expected to slightly exceed the positive impact of profitability improvement programmes.”
Outlook Deutsche Bank
Assumptions and outlook for HY2/07 • Assumptions • Further cost pushes from raw materials likely • Selling price increases from Q4 onwards • Further European capacity reduction in 2007/2008 • Outlook • Production and sales volume around 215,000 ton • Improvement of Net Result in HY2/07 versus HY1/07
