Where We Fit in Wind Power

Wind power is a promising, growing industry with strong potential

China is a world leader in the advancement of wind power

Wind turbines contain highly technical components that are creating a supply
bottleneck

China Wind has market advantage in making these forged wind-power
components

Demonstrated solid execution of our business plan to become a key supplier of
significant wind-power components

China Wind Power’s Rapid Growth Drives Our Business

China’s wind power installed capacity doubled in 2008,
reaching 12.2 GW

China joined US as the markets with the highest
installed wind power capacity, in 2008

Capacity growth rate averaged more than 46% per year
in the last ten years

Installed wind capacity expected to increase 64% in 2009
to 20 GW

In April 2009, China government more than tripled target
for installed capacity by 2020 to 100 GW from 30 GW

Government offers subsidies to manufacturers of wind
turbine components and builders of wind turbine

Industry Bottleneck Secures Our Opportunity

Government mandates that 70% of wind turbine components be manufactured
locally, encouraging domestic suppliers

In 2008, gearbox demand was 10,000 MW while supply was only 4,000 MW

Increases in wind turbine size will prolong this supply constraint

China Wind Systems’ primary strategic focus is to solve the bottleneck by
providing forged components, including forged rolled rings, gear rims, and shafts
used in gearboxes and yaw bearings

Sources: Renewable Energy World Magazine

“The wind power industry is experiencing such tremendous growth that the industry is facing a serious
shortage
of various components.  The component shortages mainly involve gearboxes and yaw
bearings
.  The component shortage has limited the industry’s overall growth rate and resulted in large
backorders
for wind turbine and system manufacturers.  At the end of 2006, wind farms developers had
to wait 12 months for turbines to be delivered and this delay may grow to 18 to 24 months.  Demand in
2007 is expected to be 20 gigawatts and supply is only expected to be 17 gigawatts, resulting in a 3-
gigawatt shortage according to the Global Wind Energy Council.”
