South Mediterranean Countries: Gamesa’s windfarms in South Mediterranean countries Approx. 800 MW in the last 5 years Customer government (Morocco=Office National Electricité, Tunisia = Société Tunisienne Electricité et Gaz, Egypt =New and Renewable Energy Agency) Financing European development funds (BEI, KFW, Spanish FAD, Danida) and Japanese (JBIC) Contracting 96% EPC contracts between Gamesa and governments under turn-key basis after international tendering (WTGs, civil & electrical works included) Technical adaptation to the markets small size windturbines (850 kW -1360 kW), high temperature, protection to dust (sand) & corrosion ambient package Bizerte 120MW Tetouan I,II,III 32MW Tanger 140 MW Sidi Daoud I, II, III 40MW Essaouira 60 MW Zafarana 120+120 MW Zafarana 80+85 MW Wind market in the South Mediterranean countries has been developed by the governments of this area Estrictamente reservado y confidencial
South Mediterranean Countries: pros and cons to invest in the development of wind Pros • Excellent wind regimens: sites with higher number of equivalent hours comparing to North Mediterranean (3500-4200 hours) • Low land fees • Less height limitation nor noise constrains • Green certificates/ carbon credits can be sold to European countries • Industrial local companies interested in windfarm development as reliable electricity supply back-up solution. • Governments interested in private development • Morocco ENERGIPRO • Egypt first IPP/BOT international bid will be launched in the following months • Turkey 1st November 2007 applications bid launched by government Estrictamente reservado y confidencial
South Mediterranean Countries: pros and cons to invest in the development of wind Cons • No fixed renewable law and legal framework for a investment of 20 years: • Drafts but no firm contractual rules • Price per kWh very low (3-4 cents of Euro per kWh) • Morocco ENERGIPRO legal framework, no real contract • Egypt draft of renewable law • Electrical grid adaptability for wind energy connection: technical improvement of transport infrastructure and grid quality need to be improved Estrictamente reservado y confidencial
South Mediterranean Countries: evolution of the requirements (I) Local manufacturing • Towers: • Small size WTG’s tower easy to manufacture with local means • Big size WTG’s manufacturing needs important investment in means, factory facilities and technical competences. • Blades • Manual process manpower necessary technical competences, important cost in quality control • Nacelles • No local manufacture of the nacelle’s equipment (gearboxes, transformer, generator, control boards). • Assembly process of components has a high technical risk with low revenues.

South Mediterranean Countries: evolution of the requirements (II) Multimegawatt windtubines • Lack of local means for transport, erection and maintenance increase of Cost of Energy. • Negative economical impact in infrastructures (foundations, roads, assembly platforms) which penalize the Cost of Energy • Technical performance comparable to < 1MW WTGs (voltage ride through, reactive power generation…) Small size windturbines < 1 MW have the optimum Cost of Energy comparing to multiMW WTGs Estrictamente reservado y confidencial
