2G Energy AG: Strengthening international market presence through partner concepts - Seite 4

supplies - applying suitable concepts and products. Essentially, the KWK-G
creates opportunities for 2G. The growing export share in the CHP business
and diversification across performance classes and gas types also generates
numerous business options and growth opportunities above and beyond this.

2G company portrait
2G Energy AG ranks among the world's leading manufacturers of cogeneration
(CHP) systems for decentralized energy production and supply by means of
combined heat and power. The company's product portfolio includes systems
with electric capacity between 20 kW and 4,000 kW for operation with
natural gas, biogas, biomethane and other lean gases. 2G has successfully
installed several thousand CHP systems in 40 countries to date. Especially
in the 50 kW to 550 kW performance range, 2G commands proprietary
technological combustion engine concepts characterized by low specific fuel
consumptions, high operational availability and optimized service
intervals. Besides the main production site at the Group headquarters in
Heek, Germany, the company has invested in an additional production and
sales & service site in St. Augustine, Florida, USA. 2G's customers range
from agricultural and industrial operations, local authorities, and the
residential sector through to municipal utilities and large-scale
utilities. The high level of customer satisfaction is founded on a dense
service network as well as 2G power stations' high technical quality and
performance. These power stations achieve an overall degree of efficiency
from 85 percent and to well above 90 percent thanks to the combined heat
and power performance.

Along with the construction of combined heat and power stations, the
company, located in Westphalia in the northwest of Germany, offers
integrated solutions spanning the planning stage and installation through
to service and maintenance work. In the context of the energy policy
revolution, and as part of modern energy supply concepts, CHP systems are
gaining considerably in importance in intelligent energy grid systems - so-
called virtual power plants - due to their decentralized and scalable
operation, and predictable availability.

2G is consistently expanding its technology leadership through continuous
research and development work, both in gas engine technology for natural
gas, biogas and synthetic gas applications (e.g. hydrogen), as well as in
specific software development. The "virtual power plant" operating type,
for example, has been created with a software solution. Overall, the 2G
power plant is thereby operated on a basis that is "heating-managed and
