38. Hydro Pipeline
We are in the process of studying Rio
Parnaiba which appears to have a
1,000MW potential in Hydro plants, that
will be the object of government
auctions during 2009 and 2010. We are
also studying Rio Corumba, to establish
its potential for run of river projects.
40. Wind Pipeline
We have confirmed wind measurements,
and obtained land use rights to
locations representing aproximately
1,300MW of wind farm potential in
Northeastern Brazil. In 2009, we expect
to win 580MW at auction under 20 year
PPAs, and an additional 620MW in 2010.
We have reason to believe that we have
identified sites representing an aditional
1GW of that will be developed in 2011.

52. Municipal Waste-to-Energy
Pipeline
After identifying an enormous repressed
demand for solutions to solid urban
waste, we developed on a proprietary
basis and using exclusively national
technology a commercially viable and
scalable project for transforming waste
into energy. During 2009 we will begin
the roll out of this technology in the
following pilot municipalities: Campina
Grande, Marcanau, Pacatau, totaling
87MW.
