  1. History and structure • Design & Technology • Market and route-to-market • XANT-21 specifications

  2. Milestones in XANT’s history The XANT development started with R&D on innovation drive-train concepts and aero-elastic tailoring for mid-size turbines. The XANT-21 design was initiated in Febr 2009 Nov 2009: Selection downwind concept with RISOE: Danisch Research Centre. 2010 Blade design with TU Delft & NREL Dec 2011 This first design has undergone Germanischer Lloyd Type-D Certification. A working prototype is expected by February 2014 Certification of XANT-21 by Q4-2014. 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2014 2014

  3. PARTNERS Global engineering and construction company for industrial biomass energy plants. global consultancy and software company focused on increasing renewable energy installation performance and optimising energy consumption Jo VERSAVEL

  4. History and structure • Design & Technology • Market and route-to-market • XANT-21 specifications

  5. XANT is focussing on the medium sized wind turbine market XANT’s power range of wind turbines XANT focus area Meters hub height Utility scalewind turbines Medium sizedwind turbines Small wind turbines

  6. XANT features are based on a study done for EU project Reliawind

  7. XANT’s key technological innovations Swept-planform blades Auto pitch Auto Yaw System Containerized Transport Tilt-up Tower Optimized low-wind-speed power curve

  8. History and structure • Design & Technology • Market and route-to-market • XANT-21 specifications

  9. Illustration of medium sized wind turbine applications • Industry & • Tertiary • Sector • Manufct. plants • Retail • Schools • Farms Distributed Generation (grid-connected) Typical medium wind turbine applications Off-grid Generation • Industrial, • Agricultural • & Tertiary • Mining • Eco-lodges • Irrigation • Desalination • Communities • IPP • Utilities

  10. Medium sized wind turbines become available and affordable for an increasing population Site requirements for medium sized wind turbines • Moderate wind conditions . • Limited planning restrictions or barriers for medium sized turbines. • Relatively high electricity prices / high fuel prices. • Local consumption. • Attractive incentive scheme. • Zero-emission / green energy awareness. For an increasing part of the world a medium size wind turbine is a financially attractive energy solution

  11. Synergies to Clients Diesel gensets / Biomass units
