Fennovoima in brief

2

● Project company and future plant operator, founded in 2007 to build a nuclear power plant (NPP) at a greenfield site in Pyhäjoki

● Current headcount ~260

● Will operate according to the “Mankalaprinciple” whereby the owners receive electricity at cost price

● Commercial operation in 2024

Need for new power in Finland

Objectives for the future:

● The aging capacity needs to be replaced, including Loviisa NPP (2x VVER 440)

● A virtually emission-free energy system by 2050

● There needs to be an increase in the self-sufficiency of electricity supply

● Securing the competitiveness of Finnish industry by offering reasonably priced electricity for a long period of time

Electricity supply by energy sources in 2014(83,3TWh):

Nuclear27,2 %

Net imports21,6 %

Hydro power15,8 %

Bio fuel13,2 %

Coal 9,8 %

Natural gas

6,3 %

Peat3,5 %

Waste fuels1,0 %

Wind 1,3 %

Oil0,3 %

Mankala company

● The partners fund the construction and maintenance of the power plant and in return get electricity at cost price, in proportion to their ownership share.

● The “Mankala principle” enables several smaller electricity users to join forces for building and operating an NPP.

● The electricity price, cost and volume risk are transferred to the shareholders.

The role of Rosatom

● Fennovoima operates and executes the project

● Rusatom Overseas will constructan AES-2006 (V491) type nuclear power plant with turnkey delivery, including complete nuclear and turbine islands

● Also delivers financing for the project

● Fennovoima operates the plant, Rosatom owns a 34% share
