3 ABOUT CAIRN ERA Who We Are and What We Do 3

4 Cairn ERA Cairn Energy Research Advisors is a strategic market research and consulting firm with a specialization in energy storage and other emerging energy technologies. Cairn ERA approaches all projects from a first principles philosophy: all models are bottom-up and no data is entered that is not extremely robust. Cairn ERA s strength is in its people and its processes. All Cairn ERA partners have multiple years of experience working in the energy sector and have a strong and diverse network of contacts throughout the industry. And the Cairn ERA approach to research and modelling has been honed over decades of experience in providing first-rate deliverables to some of the world s most successful and demanding companies.

5 CAIRN ERA INTRODUCTION Methodology: How Cairn ERA s Modelling Process Works Demand Bottom-Up Business modeling Supply Price Forecasting External Stress Testing Top-Down Historical Proxy Comparisons Pricing threshold model: individual applications are modelled to determine an price threshold for that application to become feasible More than 20 individual stationary storage applications and eight different transportation applications are tracked and modelled Pricing data is then forecasted based on knowledge of materials markets, manufacturing process and manufacturing capacity changes Forecasts are then built around expected pricing and expected market demand based on ROI-positive business models for each application Forecasts are then stress-tested against top-down historical proxy growth curves to determine how other historical examples have grown under similar supply/demand circumstances 5 All rights reserved Cairn Energy Research Advisors 2017

9 COGS for Li-ion Changes To 2019 Overall Battery Manufacturing Costs Total Manufacturing Costs of Average Li-Ion Battery, 2016 $14.58 $59.20 $12.95 $7.22 $4.66 $29.58 Anode Cathode Electrolyte Separator Case and Tabs Cost of Manufacturing Total Manufacturing Costs of Average Li-ion Battery Cell at Price of $100/KWH, 2019 $11.47 $48.66 $5.18 $5.22 $4.66 $13.53 Anode Cathode Electrolyte Separator Case and Tabs Cost of Manufacturing Cairn ERA estimates that the average Li-ion battery costs to manufacture will drop from $ per KWH to $88.72 in the next three years. That would leave the battery manufacturer a profit margin of 11.28%. 9

10 The Road to $100 Approaches to Cost Reductions Four Clear Approaches: Compress Logistics Tail Compress Manufacturing Costs Compress Processed Materials Prices Compress Margins all Along the Supply Chain 10

11 Logistics: The Journey of a Lithium Molecule A lithium molecule is extracted from a salt lake in Chile and then follows this route before a car customer drives off the lot powered by batteries using that lithium molecule. Shipped from Chile to Alabama to be refined into battery grad Lithium Carbonate. 4,788 Miles. Shipped from Alabama to Los Angeles Port and then to Japan for further refinement. 7,480 Miles. Shipped to Korea for mixture into NCA slurry. 714 Miles. Shipped to Shanghai. 537 Miles. Multiple stops at various distribution warehouses in the Shenzhen/Shanghai area before being incorporated into a battery at a factory in Shenzhen. 200 Miles. Battery is then shipped back to Los Angeles to be incorporated into car battery pack. 6,465 Miles. Total Miles: 20,184 Miles 11 All rights reserved Cairn Energy Research Advisors 2016

12 Manufacturing Approaches to Cost Reductions: Manufacturing Costs Manufacturing costs will come down significantly from scale alone, which will make energy, equipment and permitting/tax costs cheaper Purchasing of newer equipment will also decrease equipment costs due to higher automation levels in newer equipment. Cairn ERA expects that it is reasonable to expect increased scale alone to allow reductions in manufacturing costs from $29.58 per KWH to $17.75, which translates in a reduction of BOM/COGS of 30% to 18%. 12

13 SECTION 3: MARKET DEMAND Growth of Market Demand by Segment 13

14 AXIS TITLE Market Demand: ALL ELECTRODE CHEMISTRIES The overarching trend in electrode chemistries of Li- Ion will be the expansion of NMC market share. All chemistries outside of LCO and LMO will see increased annual market share from 2016, although growth rates will dramatically differ. NCA s growth rate will mirror Tesla s vehicle sales rate. LFP and NMC will dominate the market by 2020 and will only grow faster beyond that. 800, , , , , , , ,000 Energy Capacity of All Batteries by Electrode Chemistry (MWH), Other LTO LFP LMO NMC NCA LCO

15 MWH MILLIONS USD Forecasts: Consumer Electronics Forecast 60,000 50,000 40,000 Portable Devices Global Battery Energy Capacity (MWH) and Revenue (Millions USD), $16,600 $16,400 $16,200 $16,000 30,000 20,000 10,000 $15,800 $15,600 $15,400 $15,200 $15,000 Revenue Energy Capacity $14,800 The appetite for consumer electronics batteries will grow at a tepid pace between 2015 and 2020, from 41.7 GWH in 2013 to 47.4 GWH in Some regions, primarily North America, will actually see declining growth in energy capacity. Revenue will decline at a 3.1% CAGR between 2015 and 2020 thanks to declining prices, especially for higher end polymer electrolyte chemistries used in tablets and smartphones All rights reserved Cairn Energy Research Advisors
