Distributed Generation Market

On-site Power• High efficiency drives economics• Virtual lack of pollutants eliminates future

clean air compliance concerns• CHP reduces costs & supports sustainability• Supports energy security• Power reliability improved

Fuel cell power plants at a University, a

commercial bakery, and a municipal

pump station

Electric Grid Support• Cost–effectively add power generation

when/where needed• Reduces grid congestion• Supports renewable portfolio standards• Reinforces grid reliability• Heat sold to neighbors or used to

enhance electrical efficiency

Fuel cell park supporting the

electric grid

Ultra-Clean Baseload Distributed Generation Solutio n– Easy to site in populated areas – Generates more power output per unit of fuel w/ 47%-70% electrical efficiency– Up to 90% total efficiency when using Combined Heat and Power (CHP)– Fuel flexible: Clean natural gas or renewable biogas

Asian Strategy

• Expanding market opportunities through POSCO Energy relationship– RPS demand / Export opportunities / Seoul City 230 MW program

• Benefit from Asian market growth with royalties and lower product costs

• Cell component manufacturing in S. Korea– Expands global manufacturing footprint without direct capital investment– Leverage global supply chain for cost reductions– Second source of supply important to prospective customers

• 121.8 MW multi-year order provides committed produc tion to USA facility

• POSCO investments validate market opportunity

Competitive LCOE

(a)

(a) FuelCell Energy’s current 10-year LCOE is $0.15/kWh assuming natural gas cost of $8/mmBtu or $0.14.kWh assuming $6/mmBtu gas cost as each $2/mmBtu change equates to about $0.01/kWh

(b) Mid-term LCOE target range of $0.09-$0.11/kWh based on global production volume of 210 MW annually(c) Does not include disposal or incremental emission clean-up costs(d) Cost of Transmission & Distribution estimated to add up to $0.024/kWh
