4. © Siemens AG 2011 Longer and Lighter Blades Trends in Offshore Wind Turbine Technology -Hub height & Rotor sizes WTG’s are getting larger and are installed farther off shore and in locations with deeper water depths  The offshore wind industry is currently offering blades in the 120m range  Indications are pointing towards rotors in the >150m range for offshore turbines.  Siemens Wind Power followed this trend with the SWT 3.6-120MW  Tests indicate that the new machine will generate approx. 10% more electricity in comparison to similar wind turbines.  The turbine towers are becoming taller as a consequence of the larger rotors.  Financial modeling also shows benefits from taller towers due to better wind resources but is also associated with higher costs for foundation and tower construction.

5. © Siemens AG 2011 Trends in Offshore Wind Turbine Technology -Optimization of Availability The TCM ® system allows for the continuous online vibration monitoring of the wind turbine with 6 sensors and allows for the assessment of:  Gearbox  Main bearing  Generator Turbine Condition Monitoring (TCM ® ) The purpose of the TCM ® system is to:  Optimize the planning of service works, reduce service costs and down time  Perform preventive repair of components before breakdown – automatic stop of wind turbine in case of excess of vibration limits  Improves possibilities for further technical development

6. © Siemens AG 2011 Picture from installation to follow Facts Our strategy for technology leadership SWT-3.0-101  3.0 MW gearless direct drive turbine  Rotor diameter: 101 m  No gear box  Reduced number of parts  Reduced maintenance costs  Synchronous permanent magnet generator  High efficiency  Compact design allows for easier transportation and installation  The 6-MW direct drive wind turbine will be launched later this year  Will be particularly suitable for large offshore wind power plants

8. © Siemens AG 2011 Hywind: An example of how we are tackling trends in offshore wind  Cooperation on technology with Statoil to develop the world's first floating offshore installation  In 2009 Siemens installed the first wind turbine for the demonstration unit off the coast of Norway  Floating offshore turbines could be installed at sites with greater water depths Hywind Source: SWP

9. © Siemens AG 2011 Trends in the offshore Balance of Plant -Vessels Able to install turbine quickly Able to install pre-commissioned components Working year round even in high down time period Designed for specific purpose Future vessels need to be… Purpose build vessel is a key component in a project To ensure vessel availability in the US:  Short term the Jones Act needs to allow for foreign build vessels; either in general or be project specific waivers  Long term U.S. shipyards and/or ship operators should team up with European experience and start installation vessels development in the U.S.

10. © Siemens AG 2011 Offshore port requirements:  Unrestricted access to, and permit to work in the area, 24/7 and 365 days a year  A contiguous piece of level land with a total area of 2000 m2 per turbine (min. 50000 m2)  Suitable water depths at the load-in quay of ~ 10m allowing ocean-going coasters (cargo vessels)  Indoor high ceiling storage  Good infrastructure within the construction area and the quay side  Utilities: Power, water, internet and phone Trends in the offshore Balance of Plant -Ports
