ASX Announcement 24th February 2012

Carnegie welcomes the UK Parliament’s report on “The Future

of Marine Renewables in the UK”

World class marine energy resource capable of supplying 20% of the UK’s electricity needs.

Developing the wave and tidal energy industry will provide significant economic benefits to the UK.

The UK leads the wave and tidal energy industry globally but requires with a visionary approach to retain this position.

£200m grant funding allocated to marine energy in the UK to date.

Wave energy developer Carnegie Wave Energy Limited (ASX: CWE) welcomes the UK House of Commons Energy and Climate Change Committee report on ‘The Future of Marine Renewables in the UK.’ The report highlights the opportunities and benefits of developing a world leading marine energy industry and the need for the UK to adopt a visionary approach to its continued support of marine energy. The report recognises that wave and tidal energy combined has the potential to meet 20% of the country’s electricity needs while also becoming a major export opportunity for marine devices, components, other equipment and specialist skills. The UK has the largest wave resource in Europe, is less variable than wind energy, can be forecast several days in advance and provides a good match with seasonal electricity demand. While the UK is currently the world leader in the development of wave and tidal devices, the report urges a further strategic, long-term vision for the marine energy sector to ensure the UK does not lose its early-mover advantage on the basis that wave energy clearly has the potential to deliver significant economic benefits to the UK, from what is a modest government investment. The UK has allocated over £200m of public funds to date to marine energy grant funding. Significant future funding rounds have also been announced including recently the DECC Low Carbon Innovation Fund (£20m) and the Scottish WATERS2 Fund (£6m).

The report issues a number of recommendations to help ensure the UK retains its leading position, such as providing increased clarity about revenue support beyond 2017 and ensuring appropriate investment in new grid connections. Tim Yeo MP, Chair of the Committee, said: "We are extremely well placed to lead the world in wave and tidal technologies, which could potentially bring significant benefits in manufacturing and jobs, as well an abundant supply of reliable low-carbon electricity. A more visionary approach from the UK Department of Energy and Climate Change could help to boost confidence and drive the pace of development." Carnegie has worked with the UK Government, and other key stakeholders, to identify and develop potential commercial CETO project sites in the UK and has leveraged the UK’s experienced marine industry in commercialising the CETO technology. Carnegie looks forward to working further with the UK government and marine industry to demonstrate the technical and economic viability of wave energy and its contribution to the energy mix. Carnegie’s Chief Executive Officer, Dr Michael Ottaviano, presenting at the Jefferies Global Clean Technologies Conference in New York City yesterday, commented that “Carnegie applauds the UK Government’s foresight and support for the burgeoning wave and tidal energy industry to date and encourages a strategic, long-term vision to see that pioneering vision come to fruition.” Dr Ottaviano’s presentation from the Jefferies Global Clean Technologies Conference is attached. About CETO The CETO system distinguishes itself from other wave energy devices by operating out of sight and being anchored to the ocean floor. An array of fully submerged buoys is tethered to seabed pump units. The buoys move in harmony with the motion of the passing waves, driving the pumps which in turn pressurise water that is delivered ashore via a pipeline. On shore, high-pressure water is used to drive hydroelectric turbines, generating zero-emission electricity. The high-pressure water can also be used to supply a reverse osmosis desalination plant, replacing greenhouse gas emitting electrically driven pumps usually required for such plants.

CETO Technology characteristics include:

CETO converts ocean wave energy into zero-emission electricity and desalinated water.

CETO is environmentally friendly, has minimal visual impact and attracts marine life.

CETO is fully submerged in deep water away from breaking waves, beachgoers and where it is safe from storms.

About Carnegie Carnegie Wave Energy Limited is an Australian, ASX-listed (CWE) wave energy technology developer. Carnegie is the 100% owner and developer of the CETO Wave Energy Technology intellectual property.
