Humpback Hydro Inc. SUPERIOR RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE Mark Legacy Founder & CEO The world needs reliable, base load renewable energy to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels BUT, the sun doesn’t always shine and the wind doesn’t always blow Pumped-storage Hydroelectricity …Is capital intensive and inefficient Humpback’s Solution Turnkey hydro storage built near renewable energy source How it works ④ Release when needed ① Constant water supply from ocean or lake Gravitational ②flow to generate power ③ Pump water into reservoir for storage (off-peak) Our Customers “The concept is valid and I believe that 90% efficiency can be achieved.” – Professor Ziad Shawwash, UBC Named one of three finalists in The Award for Excellence in Emerging Technology - GLOBE Environmental Awards competition 2014 Market Size Global Wind Farms • Upwards of $33.75 B Annual Total Potential Market All Canadian Wind Farms • $662.8 M Annual Total Addressable Market Off Shore Canadian Wind Farms – identified as early adopters • $10.3 M Annual Initial Serviceable Market Solar Potential • "An IMS Research report expects the market for storing power from solar panels – which was less than $200mm in 2012 – will catapult to $19bn by 2017."
