THE U.S. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY CLEAN POWER PLAN: HOW WILL IT AFFECT THE ELECTRIC UTILITY INDUSTRY NOW AND IN THE FUTURE?
On June 2, 2014, the U.S. EPA, proposed a plan with the stated purpose of reducing carbon emissions from electric generating units, under Section 111(d) of the Clean Air Act. The CPP sets a CO2 emission target for each state, and utilizes four “building blocks” in devising those rates. The CPP suggests power to be dispatched based upon environmental considerations. Today, regional electric markets dispatch power based upon economic considerations and not environmental considerations. More than four million entities submitted comments on the proposed CPP and on August 3, 2015, the U.S. EPA issued their final plan. What is the overall affect on states, utilities, and ratepayers? What is the timeline for implementation of the CPP? What does the plan mean for the future electric generation mix? How will reliability and prices be impacted? What kinds of technology and regulatory policy changes will be needed?

INTERRUPTION IN THE UTILITY INDUSTRY?
Track 1 Session 1
Electricity markets are experiencing fundamental changes because of solar, wind, electric vehicles, energy efficiency programs, storage and other forms of distributed generation that may be intermittent or require changes/upgrades to the electric grid. There is also an increase in the availability of smart meters and other devices that can help customers control their electric demand and usage. As a result, demand is less predictable and more volatile. This change also creates challenges for transmission and distribution for all load serving entities, even with new real-time data availability and grid visibility. What technological, regulatory, and/or policy changes are needed in the short term and longer term to keep pace? What will these changes mean for reliability? How will the traditional utility model change in the coming years?

THE GAS AND ELECTRIC UTILITY INDUSTRY: CARBON CONSTRAINED
Monday, November 30th Track 1 Session 3
This session will focus on the impact U.S. EPA Clean Power Plan (CPP) will play in shaping changes to the natural gas market, including the shale gas marketplace both domestically and perhaps internationally. The inter-dependency between the natural gas and electric industry is growing as there is more movement toward natural gas fired generation and away from coal fired generation. Natural gas companies are already seeing an increased need for infrastructure expansion from the growing gas-electric inter-dependency. What are the benefits and risks facing the natural gas industry? What role does the shale gas industry play? What will the changes mean for gas producers, electric utilities and technology now and in the future both in the U.S and abroad?

Monitoring of Business Energy Performance for Fit-out Redevelopment Potential...EMEX
In 2014, Heathrow’s Terminal 2 Retail Fit-out Sustainability Project won the ‘Most energy efficient project of the year’ at the Environment and Energy Awards. This was for Discovery Mill’s approach and the work the Heathrow team collaboratively achieved with Heathrow’s retail business partners in reducing energy usage in T2 Retail. Predicted energy savings were assessed to be 17-24% compared to existing Terminal 5 operations, with additional direct savings for Heathrow through reduced central building plant consumption as well as reduced infrastructure costs.
Flinders Island Isolated Power System (IPS) Connect 2016 R ROCHELEAU HNEIjames hamilton
Although the Hawaiian Islands are blessed with an abundance of renewable energy sources including excellent solar and wind resources, and have the nation’s most aggressive renewable energy standards, the state still rely heavily on fossil fuels for electricity generation. With isolated (unconnected) island grids and sparse systems on some islands, integration of the intermittent renewable generation systems has been challenging. The Hawaii Natural Energy Institute (HNEI) at the University of Hawaii has initiated an integrated effort involving modeling, testing, and demonstration to identify and validate pathways to higher renewable integration. In this talk, I will discuss the analysis being used to identify strategic paths forward and will describe several projects currently underway including the Maui Smart Grid Demonstration Project, the Smart Grid Inverter Project and several grid-scale battery energy storage projects.
Richard Rocheleau (PhD, Chemical Engineering, University of DE), has over 35 years of experience in renewable energy, with an emphasis in the areas of photovoltaics, hydrogen fuel cells, and energy systems. Dr. Rocheleau joined the faculty of the Hawaii Natural Energy Institute at the University of Hawaii in 1988 and was appointed Director in 2000. Under his direction, the Institute is leading the development of public‐private partnerships focused on the development, testing and integration of alternative energy technologies into the electrical grid. HNEI has major funding from the US Department of Energy and the Office of Naval Research. Dr. Rocheleau was also successful in positioning the Institute to receive a portion of the ‘barrel tax’, established by the Hawaii State Legislature supporting studies for integration of renewable energy technologies into the grid intended to assist the state to meet its aggressive renewable energy portfolio goals.

US Economic Outlook - Being Decided - M Capital Group August 2021.pdfpchutichetpong
The U.S. economy is continuing its impressive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and not slowing down despite re-occurring bumps. The U.S. savings rate reached its highest ever recorded level at 34% in April 2020 and Americans seem ready to spend. The sectors that had been hurt the most by the pandemic specifically reduced consumer spending, like retail, leisure, hospitality, and travel, are now experiencing massive growth in revenue and job openings.
Could this growth lead to a “Roaring Twenties”? As quickly as the U.S. economy contracted, experiencing a 9.1% drop in economic output relative to the business cycle in Q2 2020, the largest in recorded history, it has rebounded beyond expectations. This surprising growth seems to be fueled by the U.S. government’s aggressive fiscal and monetary policies, and an increase in consumer spending as mobility restrictions are lifted. Unemployment rates between June 2020 and June 2021 decreased by 5.2%, while the demand for labor is increasing, coupled with increasing wages to incentivize Americans to rejoin the labor force. Schools and businesses are expected to fully reopen soon. In parallel, vaccination rates across the country and the world continue to rise, with full vaccination rates of 50% and 14.8% respectively.
However, it is not completely smooth sailing from here. According to M Capital Group, the main risks that threaten the continued growth of the U.S. economy are inflation, unsettled trade relations, and another wave of Covid-19 mutations that could shut down the world again. Have we learned from the past year of COVID-19 and adapted our economy accordingly?
“In order for the U.S. economy to continue growing, whether there is another wave or not, the U.S. needs to focus on diversifying supply chains, supporting business investment, and maintaining consumer spending,” says Grace Feeley, a research analyst at M Capital Group.
While the economic indicators are positive, the risks are coming closer to manifesting and threatening such growth. The new variants spreading throughout the world, Delta, Lambda, and Gamma, are vaccine-resistant and muddy the predictions made about the economy and health of the country. These variants bring back the feeling of uncertainty that has wreaked havoc not only on the stock market but the mindset of people around the world. MCG provides unique insight on how to mitigate these risks to possibly ensure a bright economic future.

Yes. You can sell your pi network coins in South Korea or any other country, by finding a verified pi merchant
What is a verified pi merchant?
Since pi network is not launched yet on any exchange, the only way you can sell pi coins is by selling to a verified pi merchant, and this is because pi network is not launched yet on any exchange and no pre-sale or ico offerings Is done on pi.
Since there is no pre-sale, the only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners. So a pi merchant facilitates these transactions by acting as a bridge for both transactions.

Currently pi network is not tradable on binance or any other exchange because we are still in the enclosed mainnet.
Right now the only way to sell pi coins is by trading with a verified merchant.
What is a pi merchant?
A pi merchant is someone verified by pi network team and allowed to barter pi coins for goods and services.
Since pi network is not doing any pre-sale The only way exchanges like binance/huobi or crypto whales can get pi is by buying from miners. And a merchant stands in between the exchanges and the miners.
I will leave the telegram contact of my personal pi merchant. I and my friends has traded more than 6000pi coins successfully

Macro Challenges to Power at Mines
Mining in Africa suffers from Macro issues: availability, quality and pricing:
• Declining Hydro levels
• Where gas is available - Slow integration of domestic natural gas supply:
o Little attention to national policy
o High cost of extraction
o Glut of supply limits price and market potential
• Overall move towards Cost reflective tariffs
• Potential Introduction of Carbon Tax – impacting expanded use of coal

Important Reasons for deploying Solar PV at
Mines:
1. Reduce risk of power loss from supply
disruptions;
2. High potential to reduce and stabilize
electricity costs;
3. Reduce carbon emissions;
4. Enable Mines to repurpose land used;
10
5. Opportunities for cooperation with neighboring
industries/communities.

Solving the Commercial issues
• IFRS treatment of PPA or Lease arrangements on
Balance Sheet
• Capital Costs – Inverse relationship between Solar
PV and Conventional Power
15
• Pay upfront – Solar PV Take-or-Pay Framework vs. Pay-as-you-go for
Conventional
• Life of Mine – often shorter pay-back period than Solar PV project!
• Potentially Stronger Business Case for Solar PV/Hybrid systems in
remote, off-grid locations!
Shorter Life of Mine;
Offsetting higher priced fuels
• Consider using Mining company subsidiary SPV structure for
Power company – becomes a self-production venture.

Effective Financial Structures
• Balance risk allocation to those best able to manage it!
o Contract/Termination Risk – according to source of default
o Construction Risk – seek strong EPC to backup
o Payment Risk – possibly include ultimate off-taker coverage
• PPA Payments – target to Levelized cost of electricity and expected
cost of power
• Separate Availability (capacity) and Minimum Output payments
• Optimize debt sources – Integrate DFI lending and ECA coverage for
longer tenure and lower cost

How Making Renewables work
Work Cooperatively – IPP and Mine are not adversaries!
• Focus on Grid Parity – Seek integrated solutions priced
to meet customers long-term power costs
• Investigate Lease Models – Match commitment to buy
power consumed
• Expand off-take group – sell to mining consortium/
regional power pools
• Include sustainability and environmental issues in cost-
benefit analysis
17
FOCUS ON THE LONG TERM!
18. GG Energy Holdings Stable Power Stable Pricing Page |
Thinking “out of the Box”
18
Tender for
Partners not
Projects!
• Saves time and
costs on all sides
• Work cooperatively
for the most cost-
effective solution
and approach
Secondary Off-
takers – Look for
local off-taker
opportunities to
backup primary
PPA
Establish a joint-
venture with the
IPP:
• Self-production
Model
• Overcomes
regulatory and
commercial hurdles
• Mitigate potential
tax/balance sheet
implications
Bring in Utility as
a partner:
• Direct PPA between
IPP and Utility
• Mine can provide
guaranteed off-take
• Utility provides
load balancing
• Grid benefits from
stabilization from
Solar PV

Closing Words
19
• Long-term structural issues impacting Energy supplies and pricing;
• Mines have to be proactive and bold in sourcing alternative power
sources;
• Solar PV is the fastest clean energy source that can deployed at
Mines;
• Cooperation between the IPP and the Mine in early stages of a
project is critical to successful and beneficial implementation of Solar
PV Solutions at Mines -
• Collaboration is the Best way to overcome:
Regulatory obstacles
Technical issues
Commercial challenges
