Snapshot on Key Coal-fired Power Markets
Russia: Replacement of existing base – extremely poor
condition
Europe: Minimal orders in the next 5 years due to uncertainty
Orders coming from Eastern Europe, TurkeyCo-firing opportunities
New coal opportunities limited to key geographies; largely refurbishment and co-firing opportunities in Europe and North America
Poor Good
Prospect
United States: Refurbishing/retrofitting the
existing base
The United Arab Emirates and Oman:
Preservation of gas reserves
South Africa:Major orders placed, but continual need for power; diversification into
gas
India and China:Continued strong growth in both,
although China will gradually focus more on other fuels

Nuclear will continue to play a role in the global fuel mix; investment in new projects likely to continue in Asia

Frost & Sullivan Verdict:- High profile nuclear set-backs in Germany and Italy have minimal impact on overall market.
- China, India, Russia and Korea dominate in terms of plants currently under construction. China, Russia and Korea all
set to continue with orders, India uncertain.
- North American new build unlikely due to low gas prices and capital constraints.
- Europe – some countries remain committed, but orders will be slow to be placed.

Further drop-down in prices is likely to take place during 2012, bringing ASP below 1.00$/w by end of 2012. Over 40% of the drop will be attributed to per watt cost of poly.

Globally the 2020 gas capacity forecasts was adjusted upwards by 7%, with the most significant regional adjustments for Asia and Europe.
The substantial slowdown and in some cases elimination of nuclear power from the fuel mix, together with improved prospects for shale gas and worsening prospects for coal in developed regions are key drivers behind the upgrades.
