All of CREG’s power systems recover byproducts, such as heat, pressure, steam,
residuals, etc., generated during industrial production processes which were previously
wasted.  The input materials have virtually no cost.

CREG’s recycling energy model:

CREG’s model creates a win-win situation for both itself and the clients.  

CREG provides the initial capex investment for the customer in exchange for long-
term production agreement with attractive returns on investment.

The customers can focus their capital resources on their core businesses while
improve their  energy efficiency and reduce emission in compliance with
government’s environmental regulations.

electricity by burning the previously released gas generated
during the iron-making process from blast furnaces. This can be
achieved using either the boiler or CCPP turbine method.

            

              CCPP

Oil refinery plants and
coal  mining

(Inv. >$10 M. per unit)

Waste Gas P ower Generation, a system that utilizes flammable
waste gas  from coal mining, petroleum exploitation and refinery
processing as a fuel source to generate electricity.

WGPG

Cement plants

(Inv. required > $7M. per
unit)

Cement Heat P ower Generation, a system that collects the
waste heat from the entrance and exit ends of the cement rotary
kilns to generate electricity.

              

              CHPG

Steel plants

(Inv. Requirement $3.5
M per unit)

Market Outlook - TRT

Market dynamics: China produces more than 1/3 of the world’s steel. The
steel industry has been growing at 20% per year for the past 5 years and is
expected to continue its growth in line with the Chinese economy driven by  
continued strong government infrastructure spending

38kWh can be recovered from each ton of steel produced

Market Outlook - WGPG

WGPG - Coke:

The WGPG recycled electricity market is estimated to be about 22.5 billion KWh (or about
US$1.5 billion in revenue size). *

With China’s annual coke output reaching 281 million tons and the industry growing at 20%
per year, the growth potential is significant.*  Each ton of coal gauge can help generate
80KWh of electricity through its process, more efficient than steel or cement.*

There are many other applications of recycling waste heat, pressure and gas in steel factories,
cement plants, glass factories, non-ferrous metal refining factories as well as from recycled
natural gas or biomass.  CREG has the expertise and operation experience to penetrate into
many other sectors when sufficient capital is available.

Potential market size:*

300 Blast Furnace Waste Gas projects

500 Blast Furnace Waste Heat projects

100 Glass Furnace Waste Heat projects

300 Non-ferrous Metal projects

300 Waste Gas Power Generation projects

Competition

CREG faces no significant competition b/c financial competitors are lack of  
technical skills, while engineering design institutes and EPC providers are
lack of financial means to provide BOT services

CREG combines functionalities of Bank, Design Institute, EPC / Turnkey Provider and
Project Operator. While there is significant competition in each of these fields, there is
no direct competitor who provides all these services in one package

Future competition could arise if EPC or equipment providers acquires financial
platform to become BOT provider but CREG has significant head start in China with
lock on largest clients and projects with best returns

Main competitors are government owned research institutes and their wholly owned
construction companies but they lack the financial resources to fund projects

For TRT projects, CREG is competitive with clients’ in-house investment options. Most
TRT projects are done in-house due to high investment returns

22

Technology Entry Barriers

TRT

Limited competition in outsourced TRT
market; most systems are done in-house

Steelmakers only trust experienced operators  

CHPG and WGPG

CHPG technology is relatively new in China
and there are only a limited number of sizable
factories doing it themselves

Most of these WGPG systems are very small
in scale

CCPP

Low competition because of high technology
requirement
