Our Sources of Energy The Power Mix: Where does power come from and what are its components? Nisha Desai Vice President, dGen NRG Energy, Inc. What we believe Market forces, economic pressures, and environmental regulations are all moving toward a path of fewer but cleaner traditional central power plants and more distributed energy resources. NRG believes that the future of energy is partnering with like-minded organizations to help them achieve their reliability and clean energy goals. 1 NRG by the numbers Largest independent power producer and third-largest NRG Energy, Inc. 53K megawatts generation renewable generation company in the U.S. $3 billion+ Invested on environmental improvements ~3 Million Retail customers Global, diverse energy Fortune 250 - and – S&P 500 Index 2 Sustainable energy – Why now? 55% of adults said they are more likely to purchase from a company that is environmentally friendly1 94% of CEOs think that 35 US states have sustainability issues should be fully embedded into companies’ strategy and operations2 adopted climate change action plans, and 25 states have set energy efficiency targets3 NRG Sets Unprecedented Sustainability Goals for 2030, 2050 The world of tomorrow will be powered by the choices we make today. As the largest competitive generator in the US, we are showing that we can grow our business while reducing CO2 emissions. reducing C02 by 50% by 2030 On the path to 90% C02 reduction by by 2050 Our sustainability commitment translates to avoiding the following by 2050: • 3 billion tons of CO2 emissions • Deforestation of 18,000 square miles of Amazon rain forest • 7,000,000 homes’ carbon emissions from fuel and electricity every year between now and 2050 Source: 1) Mintel/Experian Simmons NCS/NHCS: Summer 2011 NHCS Adult Full Year – POP, 2) 2010 UN Global Compact CEO Survey, based on 766 responses 3) White House Climate Action Plan 3 Key energy trends Resilience Sustainability Increasing demand for tangible demonstrations of sustainability Unmet needs from the grid for greater resilience Utility Dynamics Technology T&D costs becoming a larger share of delivered energy costs Declining lifecycle costs of distributed generation technologies Increasing value proposition to customers for distributed energy solutions NRG Energy, Inc.
