MVP Proposal Summary

• Build small, yet efficient and clean burning
  natural gas fired peaking power plants to be
  located in the East Boise - Gateway Industrial
  Park
• Phase 1 A single 172 MW combustion turbine
  unit, fired during peak generation periods using
  clean burning natural gas
• Phase 2 Up to 100 MW of Natural Gas Fired Power
  to facilitate additional Wind Generation
  facilities in Idaho

Gateway Industrial Park Siting Fundamentals

• Gateway Industrial Park is well situated away
  from residential development and adjacent to I-84
  corridor, existing industry and Gowen Field
• The Gateway Power Plant is located in the Boise
  load center adjacent to Boise Bench Substation,
  the largest station which serves the Treasure
  Valley
• MVP Proposal is classified as a Minor Source for
  air emissions and requires permitting by IDEQ in
  compliance with EPA Air Quality Act. Dominant
  wind patterns from the West are away from
  population centers.

Gateway Power Plant Site -- Attributes

• Industrially zoned property on undeveloped land
• Bennett Mtn. Plant as template with proven
  performanceLow Noise EmissionsLow Air
  EmissionsLow Visual Impact
• Intermountain Gas 12 line within 2,000 feet of
  site

Gateway Power Plant Air/Noise Emissions
Mountain View Power, Inc.

• Emissions from Gateway are less than existing
  surrounding uses at Gowen Field, Micron, I-84
  corridor
• Noise emitted from Bennett Mtn. facility was 52
  dB at 400 ft. from plant
• Emissions from Bennett Mtn. performed better than
  maximum requirements with 1 ppm Carbon Monoxide
  at full load, 20 ppm Nitrous Oxides

GATEWAY SITE MVP Site Specifics

• New lateral to Interconnect with United Water for
  fire and potable water supply
• New lateral to City Sewer
• New Gas lateral to existing 12 Intermountain Gas
  Pipeline

• No pre-existing environmental/hazardous issues
  identified with Site Existing Conditions
• Soil conditions will support conventional
  foundations
• ACHD Requirements for road paving to Site Parcel
  from Eisenman Road

26
PHASE II - PROJECT FEATURES

• Phase II to firm proposed wind generation in
  Idaho
• Every 1 MW of wind capacity needs 1 MW of a
  firm generating resource behind it
• A wind resource firmed with a gas fired peaking
  resource can defer the need for future generation
  such as coal fired plants

27
BASE PROJECT SCHEDULE

• CUP Process 3 months
• IDEQ Air Permit 6-12 months
• Electrical Interconnection Study 6 months
• Electrical Facility Study 4-6 months
• Natural Gas Interconnection 12-18 months
• Project Design Phase 6 months
• Project Construction 12 months

28
PROJECT SUMMARY

• Project will provide firm, reliable source of
  peaking power to meet future growth requirements
  for the Boise load center
• Phase 1 Project completion possible within 18
  months of issuance of regulatory permits
• Proposal represents the best available technology
  with the cleanest emissions in the region
• MVP is a local company with a successful track
  record and current experience

29
PROJECT SUMMARY

• Project Cost estimated at 75-100 million for
  Phase 1 and Phase 2
• Project serves as anchor tenant for future
  development in the Gateway Industrial Park
• Direct economic benefits to City of Boise include
  ground lease payments and property taxes.
