  1. MS Environmental Strategywww.microsoft.com/environment • Responsible Environmental Leadership • Enable Energy Efficiency • Accelerate Research Breakthroughs • Green I.T.: Reduce energy use of I.T. • “IT for Green”: Use IT to improve energy use in buildings, transportation, grids, industry. • Energy/carbon tracking • Enable fundamental advances in science • Model impacts of climate change • Provide access to computing and tools for scientific community • Reduce Microsoft’s direct carbon footprint by >30% by 2012 • Invest in programs that reduce environmental impact across operations worldwide

  2. Future Vision of the Energy Ecosystem An Energy Ecosystem Driven by Innovation Tomorrow‘s Weather: Sunny, windy, and warm. My wind generation forecast will be 220 MW offered at $40/MWH to the market Wind Nuclear & Desalinization Plant Offshore Wind Market Price Profile: Day Ahead Market Prices are low for all periods tomorrow. Solar Hydro Power Low Emission Power Plant Tidal Buoys Biomass Control Center Natural Gas to be at $11.40 per 1K cu ft. and Energy prices are low so no benefit to run CCGT Commercial Offices & Storefronts Microgrid Tomorrow is a day off and since there is plentiful low cost solar we will recharge fleet of PHEVs. Microgrid Power Substation Photovoltaic's Parking Facility with PHEV Recharge Outlets Manufacturing Plant (High Consumption) H2 Filling Station Microgrid It is warm enough to need to run air conditioning but with adequate solar, no need to buy MW from the market. Congestion from Manufacturing Load forces reconfiguration of the distribution grid to protect transformer assets. Fuel Cells Electricity Micro Storage Thermal Storage SMES Compressed H2 Storage CO2 Storage

  3. Microsoft Confidential • Hohm User • Conserve and automatically optimize usage to save money • Remote management and control • Energy retailer • Communicate directly with consumers • Meet conservation requirements • Create demand elasticity to better manage grid • Device Manufacturer • Communicate with electricity retailer for optimal price and demand management • Supports automated management of home energy consumption • Auto Maker • Unified interactions with the local utility • Reduce operational costs for customers • Rich apps to manage EV charging and usage • Integration with broader household energy mgmt
