4 Surmuntable Barriers t Diesel Displacement Myths and pre-cnceived ideas Hybrid applicatins cannt wrk. Wind is nt always blwing. My pwer plant is nt designed fr this We ve lked at it internally and it desn t make ecnmic sense What s the business mdel? Large up frnt capital expenditures e.g. $1.3M crane rental e.g. $1.5M-5M$ civil and earthwrk (access rad, fundatin) High csts fr energy strage required fr grid stability and extracting the full value frm renewable energy assets (n curtailment) Nt enugh budget in the Capital Plan f the mine r utility N legal framewrk fr IPP Market-entry barriers Established fssil-fuel delivery arrangements Electricity mnplies and regulatins Lack f infrastructure Distances Lack f transmissin/integratin capacity Undercapitalizatin Lng, t impssible, break-even (frm a utility wning the asset s perspective)

13 TUGLIQ Energy Crp.? TUGLIQ is a Specialist Independent Pwer Prducer (IPP) fcused n remte and cmplex energy diversificatin fr nrthern ffgrid and/r hybrid applicatins slutins tailred t the mining industry and cmmunities flexible agreements zer CAPEX apprach fr the clients, and immediate/shrt term savings ver current pwer generatin csts frm diesel Cntract strategies and assciated risks adapted t the mining/electric utility reality, with clear exit strategies Cre team members with significat n-site/prject delivery experience in remte Arctic lcatins Our Missin is t diversify away frm diesel industrial peratins and cmmunities by leveraging lcal surces f renewable energy 13

14 Cnclusin Renewable energy makes sense in the Arctic TUGLIQ has prven that diesel cnsumptin can be technically and ecnmically reduced Instead f subsidizing recurring and increasing yearly diesel expenditures Gvernments (Canada and Nunavut) MUST address the rt cause f the prblem and supprt deplyment f Renewable Energy Redirecting the diesel subsidies tward Renewable energy will trigger the first deplyements a TUGLIQ has a ready-t-g prpsal t diversify the Nrthern cmmunities and mines away frm diesel (lcal renewable energy, electrificatin f transprts, transitinal cleaner fssil fuel, 100% renewable), and is delivering as per its established milestnes 14
