Vertical Axis (VAWT)• Not sensitive to wind direction• Safer, more compact, less noise• Appropriate for more populated

areas

Horizontal Axis (HAWT)

• Large blades, high speed, efficient• Higher noise, vibration levels• Sensitive to wind direction

Wind Turbines

Page 3: August 2012 New Generation of Wind Turbines We Turn Energy Consumers into Energy Producers.

• Established May 2009 (in L.N. Green Incubator)

• Developing vertical axis wind turbines (VAWT)

• First products:

VAWT for residential settings

• Future markets:

commercial, urban, large VAWT

• Strategic partner: Kanfit Ltd

About Smart Wind

Page 4: August 2012 New Generation of Wind Turbines We Turn Energy Consumers into Energy Producers.

The innovative technology (by Andrey Kotler) is based on a specific use of Active Flow Control (AFC) aerodynamic technology for increasing air circulation around the rotor blades

• US patent application (10/2010)

• PCT application (10/2011)

Value Proposition

Page 9: August 2012 New Generation of Wind Turbines We Turn Energy Consumers into Energy Producers.

Wind Power – Growing Opportunity

• Global installed capacity of wind-powered generators > 200GW

• Over the past five years the average annual growth in new installations around the world has been 30%

Page 10: August 2012 New Generation of Wind Turbines We Turn Energy Consumers into Energy Producers.

Small Wind Power – Penetrating to Market

10

From the 2012 SmallWind World Report – WorldWind Energy Association (WWEA)

Global installed capacity of smallwind-powered generators < 0.5GW

Only half of the small wind turbines in China continue to produce electricity

From the 2012 Small and Medium Wind UK Market Report (RenewableUK)

UK Market Size

ForecastForecast for 2012

A boom year in theUK small wind market

Page 13: August 2012 New Generation of Wind Turbines We Turn Energy Consumers into Energy Producers.

• Potential of small wind turbines on landed homes in US - above 13 million units

• Same trend is observed in Great Britain with potential of over 600,000 small wind turbines

• The Asian market potential is believed to be large

Small Wind Power – Market Potential

13

From the 2012 SmallWind World Report (WWEA)

With an average installed cost of 6000 $/kW (AWEA 2011 report) the expected market size in 2020 is

$24 Billion

Business Strategy for Coming Years

14

• Penetrating to the wind market with products for residential settings (1-10kW)

• In process of manufacturing and testing first commercial model of about 1kW

• The company plans to expand its activity to the commercial wind turbine sector with larger models (above 10kW)

• Revenues will be received from selling turbines in the international market

• Applying the technology to large VAWTExpecting Break even pointin third year of salesandAccumulative net profitof about 20M$ after 5 years

Page 15: August 2012 New Generation of Wind Turbines We Turn Energy Consumers into Energy Producers.

Seeking to raise 2M$ for

• Entering the international market with the first commercial model

and

Working with the Small Wind Certification Council (SWCC) for certifying this model in US

• Expanding to larger turbine models
