Iran’s oil exports (Jan to June 2011) After China, the EU is the largest importer of Iranian oil
(about 20%)
In response to the Iran’s nuclear program negotiations
failure, the US and Europe decided sanctions against Iran,
who, in return, threatened to close the Strait of Hormuz:
• Strengthening of the US military presence in the Gulf
• Oil embargo from the EU (due to start in July) which should
hit 450,000 to 550,000 barrels a day of Iranian oil exports
But Iran banned crude oil supply to France, the UK and
the EU right away
In addition, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and India could
reduce their purchases (up to 250,000 bl/d). In total,
between 25% and 35% of Iran’s oil exports could be
impacted
However, Saudi Arabia is increasing significantly its
production to curb price

Oil prices in European currencies are at their highest
Oil prices forecasts uncertainty is increased by
speculation: each barrel traded on the physical
market is traded 35 times on the financial markets
There is some consumption/price elasticity
High present oil prices are linked to tensions in
Middle East and Iran
In Euros, the crude oil spot price is at its highest
There is currently a $20 spread between WTI and Brent,
a the consequence of a localized logistic phenomenon
at Cushing, Oklahoma, where WTI is priced

High oil prices impact economic growth (EU’s oil import costs up 44% in 2011 compared to 2010 and net oil import bill estimated to account for 2.8% EU’s GDP in
2012 compared to 1.7% from 2000 to 2010) and trade exchanges balance

Gas is not a global market. Very different regional pricing systems
US spot prices could go up on the mid-term triggered by the new EPA
(Environment Protection Agency) regulation on air pollution (Cross State Air
Pollution Rule) that could lead to 20% of US coal-fired plants phase-out and their
replacement by gas
Beginning of 2012, Gazprom has agreed to reduce by 10% the price of its

Post-Fukushima nuclear reactors’ market: new builds mainly
in Asia, Russia and Middle East
Worldwide, 435 reactors are in operation, 62 under construction and 489 planned or proposed (April 2012, World Nuclear Association)

Source: World Nuclear Association
The vast majority of new constructions and existing plants in operation should continue with
some delays and more safety focus. The IEA* forecasts that nuclear output will rise by
more than 70% over the period to 2035
Overview of existing nuclear plants and project capacities (as of April 2012) The final number of planned or proposed
reactors is difficult to assess. However, two
points are clear:
• Provided reactors are run safely, the consequences
of the Fukushima accident should be less
important than viewed just after the accident
• The proportion of new, safer “Generation 3
reactor” builds will increase
It is worthwhile mentioning that:
• In the US:
TVA has decided to complete Bellefonte 1 reactor
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has certified the
design of Westinghouse Electric Co.'s AP1000 reactor
Southern Company is building 2 new nuclear plants in
Vogtle, Georgia
• Finland announced a new build, the first
announcement of a new site anywhere in the world
since the Fukushima accident
• Russian Rosenergoatom has received a license for
building the Kaliningrad plant
• No.1 nuclear unit in Zhejiang Sanmen (China) has
restarted the infrastructure construction project
• Bulgaria has decided to build a 7th reactor at
Kozloduy

There is some elasticity between the economic situation and
the energy consumption
In 2009, electricity and gas consumption dropped in Europe (-4.7% and -6.1% respectively) due to the crisis, in 2010,
they increased again (+4.1% and +7.0%) thanks to the economic recovery and colder than average winter
temperatures. Wholesale electricity and gas prices followed the same trend.
In 2011, European electricity and gas consumption decreased respectively by 2.7%* and 10.7%**, mainly due to a
mild weather. In France, electricity consumption decreased by 6.8% (weather-adjusted: +0.8%) and gas
consumption by 13.4% (weather-adjusted: -1.9%).

European energy mix evolution
Energy mix should evolve towards
more gas, renewables and coal (in
certain countries)
Shale gas development is changing
the picture
In the new IEA GAS* scenario, gas
share of primary energy consumption
reaches 25% in 2035 at a global level
(more than coal, slightly less than oil)
but leads to a +3.5°C global
temperature increase (compared to
the +2°C objective)
In 2011, the IEA** has examined a Low
Nuclear Scenario:
• No new nuclear plant is built in OECD
countries
• Non-OECD countries build only half of
the projected nuclear plants
• The operating lifespan of existing
nuclear plants is limited to 45 years
However, today’s nuclear energy
development forecast is more
optimistic

A stable governmental policy is key for renewables development. The eurozone sovereign debt issues should
lead to subsidies decreases and threaten the EU 2020 objective achievement
Source: Eur’Observer barometers – Capgemini analysis, EEMO13
Growth rate of renewable energy sources As of May 2011, 10% of the European
generation plants under construction
are from renewable energy sources (vs.
7% in 2009)
In 2011, despite a drop of the new EU
wind installed capacity due to the
financial crisis and tougher regulations,
wind power covered over 5% of EU’s
consumption (172 TWh)
Many governments have or are launching
large offshore wind programs
• September 2010: 300 MW offshore wind
farm inaugurated in the UK
• France: part of the 3,000 MW tender
awarded to 2 consortiums (one led by EDF
for 1,400 MW and one led by Iberdrola for
500 MW) in April 2012
• North Sea: 400 MW (Germany) and 325
MW (Belgium) under construction
• Nuclear phase out in Germany should
boost wind power but creates issues on
the grid
Despite the solar PV growth in 2011
globally (+44%), many solar companies
went bust because of China competition
In 2011, renewable energy investment
rose 5% to US$260 billion* globally
(solar energy: +36%) *Bloomberg New Energy Finance
| Energy, Utilities & Chemicals Global Sector
The gas paradigm is changing
In the new IEA GAS* scenario, gas consumption is increased. Main
assumptions are:
• China ambitious policy for gas use
• Increased power plants’ consumption linked to lower nuclear energy
• Sustained low gas price
However, in this scenario, heavy investments in infrastructure
(difficult to finance) are needed

• It is cheap ($2/Mbtu in the US) • It allows to repatriate gas
consuming industries as chemicals and to fight against
deindustrialization

Extensive analysis have been carried out on energy mix
scenarios in France

The Energies 2050 commission examined four existing energy scenarios:
1. Lifespan extension of existing reactors: all existing nuclear reactors lifetime is extended to 60 years providing the nuclear safety
authority (ASN) allows it
2. Quicker adoption of 3rd generation nuclear reactors: replacement of all existing nuclear reactors by 3rd generation reactors (EPR) as
soon as they reach their 40 years lifetime, which implies to build at least 2 EPR reactors per year during 10 years (from 2020 to 2030)
3. Progressive reduction of nuclear energy in the mix: all existing nuclear reactors are decommissioned when reaching their 40 years
lifetime and 1 on 2 reactors is replaced by a 3rd generation reactor (EPR), which leads to a 40-60% nuclear energy share by 2030
4. a. Nuclear phase out (more fossil fuel energy): all existing nuclear reactors are decommissioned when reaching their 40 years lifetime
and are replaced by fossil fueled plants
4. b. Nuclear phase out (more RES): all existing nuclear reactors are decommissioned when reaching their 40 years lifetime and are
replaced by renewable energy plants

Status on the EU 2020 objectives
After the 2009 drop (-7.1%), GHG emissions increased
by 2.2% due to the 2010 economic recovery. For 2011,
88% ETS sector CO2 emissions released data show a
2.4%* decrease, mainly due to the combustion/power
sector (-3.1%)
An economic slowdown would push CO2 emissions
down
In its March 2011 Energy Efficiency plan, the EU
estimated that with current measures only half of the
objective would be attained and developed a new draft
Directive focusing on:
• Triggering better energy efficiency of public buildings
• Demand response programs notably through smart meters
roll out
• White Certificates mechanisms extension
• Better usage of cogeneration
In 2013, the EU will re-assess the situation

Demand Response study
2012 results snapshot
Our study shows that peak shaving potential is significant while electricity savings potential is
more limited
In Capgemini Consulting’s Demand Response
(DR) study*, the potential of peak shaving and
energy savings is modeled on the basis of a
baseline scenario:
• GDP growth 2010-20: 1.8% in average
• CAGR electricity consumption 2010-20: 0.7%
• Some existing energy efficiency programs such
as Grenelle de l’Environnement or White
Certificates
Assumptions are made on:
• Regulation (norms and standards, energy
efficiency objectives, tariffs and incentive policies)
• Market design (possibility to monetize DR on
wholesale markets, contracts optimization, capacity
markets)
• Smart meters penetration and functionalities (for
the households segment)
And typical DR offerings are modeled with
hypothesis on their adoption by customers

The need for smart grids is emerging
With the increase of renewable energies generation share, the electrical grid’s management is facing new challenges as these energies provide unforeseeable and intermittent power generation that is thus not schedulable. Balancing demand and supply on the grid becomes very complex.
Wind and solar power units are generally small and decentralized, allowing customers to become occasional producers
The distribution network that is less sophisticated than the transmission network is not designed to manage those decentralized and sometimes bi-directional flows
Smart grids concept has emerged to manage a dramatic increase in data flow, data storage and exchanges both for grid balance and customer relations. They necessitate new equipments and will be more digitally managed. Communication protocols will need to be standardized in order to manage the information flow on the net and with the customers as well as within buildings
New investments needed: Today there is funding in Europe (€1 bn EU funds) and, more so, in the US (stimulus grants: $3.4 bn), for smart grid studies and prototype building but not for their real deployment, while investments are estimated at $200 bn worldwide from 2008-2015 ($53 bn in the US)*
Electric grid management is a key factor to improve security of
supply. However it’s not going to happen overnight. A lot of
regulatory and standardization issues have to be worked out.

Smart grids: key success factors
Smart grids implementation will necessitate new investments:
• The transmission and distribution tariffs will have to increase and by consequence the electricity prices
• Regulators, governments and customers will have to accept these prices increases
Industrial R&D is needed to develop new equipments (as large competitive storage) or
improve existing ones (as HVDC connections).
Communication standards are crucial:
• US is mobilized at the government (Department of Energy) and equipment manufactures levels
• Europe is now considering more seriously this question
• Equipments conceived with the internationally adopted standards will have a clear advantage
Efforts on simulation and modeling are needed:
• For the transmission grid there is a need to build a new European High Voltage grid management
model
• On the distribution side, the retail market has to evolve and modeling is needed. Interesting
experiences initiated by regulators and involving all stakeholders (Utilities, equipment manufacturers,
IT service companies, local authorities...) have been launched in Victoria (Australia), Texas (USA) and
France.
