8

Liquefied petroleum gas or LPG is a term

used to describe two fuels: propane and

butane

Propane is a clean-burning, portable, multi-

purpose fuel that is non-toxic, economical,

and safe

Several billion people around the world use

propane for cooking and heating, generating

power, cleaning and drying clothes, and

powering equipment like forklifts

Almost half of global propane consumption is

for domestic use, the remainder is consumed

by the chemical industry, refineries, transport,

industry and agriculture1

LPG emits about 20% less CO2 than heating

oil and 50% less than coal2

Why export propane

1- Canadian Propane Association - 11 billion litres

2- LPG and the Global Energy Transition, A study on behalf of the World LPG Association

3- Japan LP Gas Association 9

Canada has an abundant supply of propane

to offer global markets that rely on energy

imports to meet energy demands

- 5.5 million tonnes produced annually in

Canada1

- Traditionally most of Canada’s propane

exports have gone to the U.S., however

the U.S. has become self-sufficient

In 2013, global consumption of LPG

amounted to 267 million tonnes2

Approximately 50% of all households in

Japan use LPG 3

Environmental concerns such as emissions

of greenhouse gases are driving increased

demand

Proposed Propane Export Terminal

10

AltaGas is proposing to build a new Propane Export Terminal on a site sub-leased from Ridley Terminals Inc. (RTI)

The Terminal will receive liquid propane from B.C. and Alberta via CN’s existing rail line

Propane will be transferred to intermediate pressurized storage bullets

Propane will be cooled to -42°C, stored and shipped at atmospheric pressure

Cooled propane will be transferred to Very Large Gas Carriers (VLGC) using the existing RTI coal jetty

Propane will be transported to Asia and other markets

Rail transport Propane storage

Why locate at Ridley Island

11

The RTI site is strategically

located:

Short shipping distances to

target markets in Asia

History of industrial

development/use and liquid

bulk loading terminals are

supported in PRPA’s Land

Use Plan

Existing CN rail lines and

coal export jetty and berthing

facilities

All new construction will take

place on previously cleared

land and/or will build upon

existing infrastructure

Schedule

14

AltaGas is advancing towards a final investment decision in late 2016, and is targeting a

commercial operation date to begin propane exports in 2018.

The Project would be the first propane export terminal to be constructed and operated

off the west coast of Canada.

Project benefits

15

Provide Western Canadian producers with new market access to Asia, a premium market for propane

Contribute to national trade and enrich Canadian-international partnerships

Diversify product at Ridley Terminal

Support long-term economic stability in the region and provide local employment opportunities

Provide skills training and employment opportunities to local First Nations

Lead to approximately:

− 200 – 250 construction jobs

− 40 – 50 permanent job opportunities once the facility is operational

Environmental review and permitting

16

Project will undergo an environmental

review

Engagement planned with First Nations,

the public and other stakeholders

The following is a preliminary list of

major pre-construction authorizations

that may apply to the Project:

- Section 67 Determination (under

the Canadian Environmental

Assessment Act, 2012)

- Navigation Protection Act

approval

- Fisheries Act authorization, (if

necessary)

- Explosives Act Permit, (if

necessary)

Protection of the environment

is a core value at AltaGas
