1 Sustainable solutions for our changing energy needs Antti Nummi Advanced Biofuels 2018, Gothenburg

2 REG in Brief Renewable Energy Group (Nasdaq: REGI) is a leading provider of sustainable, lower carbon energy products and services. We produce biomass-based diesel, advanced biofuels and renewable chemicals. Our 14 plants in Europe and US have a combined production capacity of 1.8 million tonnes. REG s revenues in 2017 were USD 2.2 billion. 2

4 Energy to fuel the growth Million toe Global primary energy consumpaon +26% SOURCE: BP Energy outlook Despite improving energy efficiency, the world s energy demand is growing

5 Emissions to the atmosphere GROWTH OF DEVELOPING COUNTRIES POST WW2 ECONOMIC GROWTH INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION IN EUROPE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION IN AMERICA CO2 emission have gone tenfold in 100 years with increasing speed

6 The world s energy transition Shares of primary energy Oil Gas Coal Nuclear Hydro Renewables SOURCE: BP Energy outlook 2018 Primary energy sources are shifting from fossil to renewables too slowly

7 The world s needs for renewable energy ENERGY DEMAND CLEAN AIR QUALITY FEEDSTOCK SUSTAINABILITY NEW SEGMENTS BEYOND ROAD Energy demand increases and the energy portfolio decarbonizes Quality of fuels is constantly improving to minimize exhaust emissions Use of waste feedstocks increases and supply availability becomes critical Use of renewables is expanding to shipping, aviation, rail and industrial segments

8 Emissions to the atmosphere Carbon emissions billion tonnes CO SOURCE: BP Energy outlook 2018 Evolving transition (ET) Internal combustion engine ban (ICE ban) Less gas switching Renewables push (RE push) Faster transition (FT) Even faster transition (EFT) Future trend depends on our choices today

9 The challenge The challenge is too big for law makers, companies or consumers to overcome alone. All sectors need to contribute

10 Use of natural resources Developed countries have the responsibility to take action and change the course

11 Europe s security of energy supply MT USD/bbl SOURCE: BP Oil ProducAon, MT Oil ConsumpAon, Mtoe Oil Price Linjär (Oil Price) Arabian Light posted at Ras Tanura Brent dated Europe is heavily dependent on oil imports in addition to gas and is exposed to significant supply and price risks

12 Structural product imbalance SOURCE: Eurostat Biodiesel / renewable diesel can decrease the dependency on diesel imports

13 Meeting the EU targets some of them SELECTED OBJECTIVE TO BE MET BY 2020 INDICATIVE OUTLOOK OF MEETING THE OBJECTIVE BY 2020 Reach a 20 % share of renewable energy in gross final energy consumption Renewable Energy Directive Reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 20% compared with 1990 levels 2020 Climate and Energy Package Reduce the overall environmental impact of production and consumption in the mobility sector 7th EAP Meet Air Quality Directive standards for the protection of human health Air Quality Directive We need to have a holistic look at the energy field and acknowledge the benefits of different solutions

14 Outcome of the market drivers ENERGY DEMAND CLEAN AIR QUALITY FEEDSTOCK SUSTAINABILITY NEW SEGMENTS BEYOND ROAD!! Growth in transportation volumes in sea, land and air, as well as the structure of the European fuel consumption and the S/D imbalance continue to be major drivers for middle distillate demand in Europe. Security of energy supply, the targets to reduce GHG emissions and improve air quality, and growing interest to reuse wastes support long term biofuel demand in Europe.

15 A smarter way forward We need smarter ways to produce our energy, to allocate our energy products and to consume our energy Natural resources more waste feedstocks OpAmizing our energy pool right fuel for each segment No subopamizaaon or quick wins at the cost of the long term good The regulation has to take into account the long term impacts of energy allocation

16 Smarter use of resources IMAGE: Ellen MacArthur Foundation Natural resources we use need to be renewable, recycled and reused.

17 Smarter optimization of fuel pool Bn toe 4 TRANSPORT ENERGY CONSUMPTION BY MODE Cars** Trucks Non-road* 2040 As commercial transportation grows, it becomes more dependent on liquid fuels SOURCE: BP Energy Outlook 2018 *Aviation, Marine and Rail, **Includes 2- and 3- wheelers

18 Smarter buying of fuels FAME o The highest GHG reduction with the lowest cost to the consumer and tax payer o Maximum amount of renewable carbon as feedstock, no hydrogen used o Oxygenated fuel meaning reduced tailpipe emissions o Enhances lubricity of conventional fuel o Biodegradable o Comparable to vegetable oil in transport & handling requirements HVO o Exceptional cetane number, virtually free of sulfur, excellent cold properties, no blending restrictions o Stand-alone HVO is a solution for airlines who want renewable jet fuel and on-road users who want renewable content higher than B7/B20 We need to have a holistic look at the energy field and acknowledge the benefits of different solutions
