“The single biggest risk that exists to the economy today”
- U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson on climate change
- Paul Simpson CEO CDP
"The transition to a low carbon economy will not be successful without a paradigm shift in the way we power our planet. That shift needs to gather pace rapidly but also be conducted in a pragmatic way,"
- Philip Ryan, Chairman Swiss Re Americas
“At IKEA, we see climate change as one of the most significant risks that businesses face today, but tackling it is also a significant opportunity. ..”
- Peter Agnefjäll, CEO IKEA

CHANGING ENERGY BEHAVIOUR-
ORIGIN MATTERS
ECOHZ GO2 => ENERGY SYSTEM TRANSFORMATION
Page 5
Fossil generation Renewables Displace fossil generation More Renewables
ECOHZ GO2
Current energy system System transformed by ECOHZ GO2
New renewables displace old carbon-intensive generation
ECOHZ GO2 – WHAT IT IS
• 1 MWh of renewable power with GO
• Zero Scope 2 emission guarantee
• A financial component • Network of corporate energy behaviour
Thought Leaders

Each ECOHZ GO2 documents current renewable consumption
• Transparency and traceability
• Access to the most efficient way to participate in the renewables future
• “Proprietary” link to the new power plant –exclusive story
ECOHZ GO2 - HOW IT WORKS
• 1MWh; of € 4.00 price, € 3.20 (80%) committed to agreed new renewable project
• Funding administered by a special purpose foundation• High leverage effect; financing maximum 15% of
project costs (top-up)• All loans repaid to foundation, creating revolving fund
and achieve multiplier effect• Third-party verification and audit, and compliance with
forthcoming CDP Standard
Page 7
Each ECOHZ GO2 contributes to future new renewable production
ENERGY POSITIVE:POWER PRODUCTION = x CONSUMPTION Power consumption in a year (example)
100,000 MWh (zero carbon through GO)
Procurement cost through ECOHZ GO2
100,000 x € 4.00 per MWh = € 400,000
Money committed to funding of projects
80% (€ 3.20 / 4.00) = € 320,000
Top financing of a new small hydro plant
8% of € 4,000,000 = € 320,000
Power produced by new plant
8,500 MWh per year
Power produced over 40 years’ life
300,000+ MWh (3x original consumption)
