First Quarter 2024 Investor Briefing Vogtle 3&4 – Project Budget 5 ‣ As of March 31, 2024, our actual costs related to the new Vogtle units were approximately $8.2 billion, net of $1.1 billion we received from the Toshiba Guarantee Settlement Agreement and approximately $404 million we received from Georgia Power in connection with cost-sharing provisions of the Global Amendments and settlement agreement. ‣ Now with construction completed and both units in operation, our total project cost projection is approximately $8.3 billion.

First Quarter 2024 Investor Briefing Future Power Resources ‣ Oglethorpe and its members are currently evaluating up to approximately 1,500 megawatts of additional gas generation capacity through the construction of combined cycle and combustion turbine units. ‣ If Oglethorpe proceeds with these projects under consideration, its estimated construction costs would be in the range of $2.0 billion to $2.5 billion. ‣ In connection with this evaluation, Oglethorpe is also in the process of securing additional natural gas transportation to serve these additional units. ‣ Oglethorpe expects these additional resources to be fully subscribed by its members by the end of the second quarter 2024. ‣ Oglethorpe and its members may also continue to evaluate and consider additional generation beyond these resources in the future. 6

First Quarter 2024 Investor Briefing GHG (CO2) Final Rules Issued by EPA ‣ On April 25th, the EPA issued a final rule to regulate CO2 emissions: • Establishes emission guidelines for states to set performance standards for existing coal-fired generating units under section 111 (d) of the Clean Air Act. • Revises the new source performance standards from new and reconstructed combustion turbine generating units burning natural gas under section 111 (b) of the Clean Air Act. ‣ The final rule is expected to have significant impact on the power sector. ‣ We believe the key assumptions in the rule, particularly regarding resource adequacy, availability and timing of the required infrastructure & permitting – carbon capture & sequestration continue to be unrealistic. ‣ 27 states plus our trade association, the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA), have already begun legal challenges. ‣ The ultimate impact or potential costs of this rule in unknown at this time until all legal challenges are complete. 9

First Quarter 2024 Investor Briefing Income Statement Excerpts (a) Margins for Interest ratio is calculated on an annual basis and is determined by dividing Oglethorpe’s Margins for Interest by Interest Charges, both as defined in Oglethorpe’s First Mortgage Indenture. The Indenture obligates Oglethorpe to establish and collect rates that, subject to any necessary regulatory approvals, are reasonably expected to yield a Margins for Interest ratio equal to at least 1.10 for each fiscal year. In addition, the Indenture requires Oglethorpe to show that it has met this requirement for certain historical periods as a condition for issuing additional obligations under the Indenture. Oglethorpe increased its Margins for Interest ratio to 1.14 each year, starting in 2010, above the minimum 1.10 ratio required by the Indenture, and the 2024 budget also includes a 1.14 As our capital requirements continue to evolve, our board will continue to evaluate the level of margin coverage and may choose to change the targeted margins for interest ratio in the future, although not below 1.10. (b) Excludes test energy megawatt-hours from Plant Vogtle Units 3 and 4 supplied to members. Any revenues and costs associated with test energy were capitalized. 14 Three Months Ended March 31, 3/31/2023- 3/31/2024 Year Ended December 31, ($ in thousands) 2024 2023 % Change 2023 2022 2021 Statement of Revenues and Expenses: Operating Revenues: Sales to Members - Capacity $355,718 $242,043 47.0% $1,082,368 $984,036 $946,662 Sales to Members - Energy 179,652 145,610 23.4% 599,198 990,647 610,447 Total Sales to Members $535,370 $387,653 38.1% $1,681,566 $1,974,683 $1,557,109 Sales to non-Members 944 1,800 -47.6% 58,619 155,454 47,754 Operating Expenses: 416,083 332,447 25.2% 1,463,119 1,936,086 1,410,482 Other Income 19,856 19,307 2.8% 81,049 72,244 71,254 Net Interest Charges 97,988 51,903 88.8% 292,325 204,591 207,854 Net Margin $42,099 $24,410 72.5% $65,790 $61,704 $57,781 Margins for Interest Ratio(a) 1.14 1.14 1.14 1.14 1.14 Sales to Members Energy Cost (cents/kWh) 2.63 2.45 7.3% 2.12 3.86 2.47 Average Power Cost (cents/kWh) 7.83 6.52 20.2% 5.94 7.70 6.30 Sales to Members (MWh) 6,836,560 5,948,052 14.9% 28,289,147 25,634,984 24,727,585

First Quarter 2024 Investor Briefing Balance Sheet Excerpts (a) The equity ratio is calculated, pursuant to Oglethorpe’s First Mortgage Indenture, by dividing patronage capital and membership fees by total capitalization plus unamortized debt issuance costs and bond discounts and long-term debt due within one year (Total Long-Term Debt and Equities in the table above). Oglethorpe has no financial covenant requirement to maintain a minimum equity ratio; however, a covenant in the Indenture restricts distributions of equity (patronage capital) to its Members if its equity ratio is below 20%. Oglethorpe also has a covenant in three credit agreements that currently requires a minimum total patronage capital of $750 million. The equity ratio is less than that of many investor-owned utilities because Oglethorpe operates on a not-for-profit basis and has a significant amount of authority to set and change rates to ensure sufficient cost recovery to produce margins to meet financial coverage requirements. 15 March 31, December 31, ($ in thousands) 2024 2023 2022 Balance Sheet Data: Assets: Electric Plant: Net Plant in Service $9,017,545 $8,996,092 $4,385,770 CWIP 3,397,847 3,294,641 7,716,035 Nuclear Fuel 395,866 389,662 388,303 Total Electric Plant $12,811,258 $12,680,395 $12,490,108 Total Investments and Funds 1,508,995 1,449,689 1,321,693 Total Current Assets 1,021,544 1,191,687 1,330,889 Total Deferred Charges 1,206,818 1,203,080 1,346,680 Total Assets $16,548,615 $16,524,851 $16,489,370 Capitalization: Patronage Capital and Membership Fees $1,300,016 $1,257,917 $1,192,127 Long-term Debt and Finance Leases 11,518,169 11,644,503 11,565,450 Other 35,151 35,014 30,201 Total Capitalization $12,853,336 $12,937,434 $12,787,778 Total Current Liabilities 1,368,117 1,358,453 1,495,293 Total Deferred Credits and Other Liabilities 2,327,162 2,228,964 2,206,299 Total Equity and Liabilities $16,548,615 $16,524,851 $16,489,370 Total Capitalization $12,853,336 $12,937,434 $12,787,778 Plus: Unamortized Debt Issuance Costs and Bond Discounts on LT debt 119,739 120,560 114,142 Plus: Long-term Debt and Finance Leases due within one year 381,602 384,426 322,102 Total Long-Term Debt and Equities $13,354,677 $13,442,420 $13,224,022 Equity Ratio(a) 9.7% 9.4% 9.0%

First Quarter 2024 Investor Briefing DOE Loan Summary as of April 30, 2024 ‣ Oglethorpe has fully advanced $4.6 billion of eligible project costs related to Vogtle 3&4 pursuant to loan agreements with DOE funded through the Federal Financing Bank. ‣ We began principal repayments of our DOE-guaranteed loans in February 2020, in accordance with the promissory notes. We repaid $486.2 million under these loans by time Vogtle Unit 4 was completed, and plan to refinance a portion of this with taxable bonds.

First Quarter 2024 Investor Briefing Vogtle 3&4 - Financing Plan ‣ As of December 31, 2023, just under $8 billion in long-term debt has been issued to finance Vogtle 3&4. ‣ We expect to issue First Mortgage Bonds in the capital markets to finance the $309 million of remaining costs and refinance a portion of the $486 million of outstanding DOE debt that matured before Vogtle 4 reached commercial operation. (a) This amount is based on an expected total financing need of approximately $8.3 billion for the project. (b) We have a rate management program that is voluntary for Members. This program allows us to expense and recover interest during construction costs on a current basis that would otherwise be deferred or capitalized and financed through the issuance of long-term debt.
