  11. North, North-east and South are most likely areas for SMR in China Geography of SMR – China COMMENTS • North, North-east and South of China have the largest potential for SMR • These regions have • A number of large urban centers – concentration of consumers • Lower density of infrastructure (electric networks, gas pipelines, railroads, desalination facilities, cogeneration facilities) – demand for small / medium capacity units • Locations with energy tariffs above average (71 USD / MWh – blue dots) – SMR can be competitive • Acceptable seismic and other requirements Harbin Changchun Beijing Shenyang Hohhot Dalian Shijiazhuang Yinchuan Tianjin Taiyuan Qingdao Xining Lanzhou Jinan Jiangsu Linxia Nanjing Xi'an Hefei Hangzhou Shanghai Wuhan Chongqing Ningbo Nangchan Changsha Guiyang Fuzhou Xiamen Kunming Nanning Guangzhou Shenzhen Haikou Source: Roland Berger

  16. Financing risks and requirements are substantial; solutions need to include a wide spectre of instruments and contributions Nuclear projects carry a unique financial risk profile – sheer project volume, long investment periods, widespread overruns of time and financial budgets, market uncertainty, political discontinuity, financial capacity and solidity of host countries Financial risks are particularly severe for private sector nuclear players (financing capacity, credit rating), and for all investments "abroad" Financing solutions 1 – project volume and long investment periods: building of consortia (one operator, 4-6 co-investors – strategic and financial), mergers & acquisitions, government incentives during construction phase or upon commissioning (example: US renewables): tax credits, free CO2 certificate allocation, capacity payments Financing solutions 2 – market uncertainty and political discontinuity: capacity payments, fixed power tariffs, debt/mezzanine financing with success-based interest rates, substantial financial commitment of host countries (state, institutions, private investors) Financial solutions 3 – financial capacity and solidity of host countries: nuclear portfolio diversification, guarantees by international institutions, limited liability constructs Source: Roland Berger
