capacity has been allocated between the ERSOP and a Combined Heat and Power Standard Offer Program (CHPSOP), with a minimum of 50MW allocated to ERSOP and a minimum of 150MW available for CHPSOP projects. Qualifying sources for the ERSOP include both waste heat and by-product fuels, which are fuels such as process off- gases that are derived from an industrial, commercial, or manufacturing activity (excluding mining) and are typically flared. The contract price for the ERSOP is $90/MWh, although under certain circumstances applicants that incorporate a price reduction will have higher priority for approval. The program includes a peak performance factor, which pays more for electricity delivered during the peak period of 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. on business days. The launch period for the ERSOP began May 6, 2011, and contract offers will go out in 3Q11. The ERSOP is expected to give a much-needed boost to the waste heat to power industry in Canada, and many in the industry would like to see a similar program in the United States. However, at this time, such a program does not appear to be on the horizon. New Business Models Reduce Barriers to Entry Industrial companies considering implementing a waste heat to power project face two primary risks: a risk that implementing the project will negatively impact their operations and a risk that even a successfully implemented project will fail to deliver anticipated returns. New business models are emerging in the industry to reduce the first risk and eliminate the second risk for companies with viable waste heat resources. Beyond the purely technical challenges of designing a system that economically captures waste heat and converts it to power is the challenge of convincing an industrial customer to take on a project that may yield a fairly modest return. This is particularly difficult when industrial customers are concerned that implementing the project will negatively impact their operations; they do not want to take on the added risk for a relatively small potential return. Related challenges include difficulties locating the required equipment close to the waste heat source and the disruption caused by the project's implementation. The size of the return on an investment in waste heat to power projects is typically tied to the cost of the electricity that the project will be displacing. This cost can be quite low for industrial companies, which effectively reduces their incentive to conserve or generate their own electricity. Carbon credits, which would have increased the value of the clean energy generated, have not materialized either and are unlikely to contribute to the value proposition of these systems ©2011 IDC Energy Insights #EI229456 Page 5
