A leading independentpower generator
Operational excellence and positioned for growth
  • A world leading power generator with a global
    portfolio of high quality assets
  • A blend of contracted and merchant assets
  • Earnings underpinned by strong operating free
    cash flow
  • A solid balance sheet and ready liquidity
  • Multiple opportunities for growth through
    acquisitions and greenfield developments

3
Key strengths
Operations
  • Plant availability 11,000 MW (net)
  • Fuel diversity gas, coal, oil
  • Environmental and health safety
  • Power desalination
  • Trading in merchant markets
  • asset backed
  • tightly controlled proprietary trading
  • asset hedging approved by Local Risk Committees -
    US, Australia, UK with participation of CEO /
    CFO / Head of Global Trading and Risk
  • PPA/tolling/offtake structuring

Commercial

Key strengths
Liquidity / balance sheet
  • Available liquidity for selected growth
  • Contracted assets
  • Merchant markets - scale in existing markets

Key strengths
Geographic diversity and balance

Australia

Interests in 28 power stations in 12 countries
Global portfolio 10,990 MW (net) in operation
610 MW (net) under construction

Geographic diversity and balance
Asset spread smoothes cycles in merchant markets
  • Price cycles in IPRs key markets not in sync
  • Continued strength of Australian merchant
    portfolio, which remains substantially contracted
    over the next 1-2 years, helps to offset weakness
    in US and UK wholesale markets
  • IPRs long term contracted assets provide a
    measure of steady cash flow and a foundation for
    the merchant business

A portfolio approach 1
Balance within core regions
  • Australia - the leading private power generator
    in the National Electricity Market
  • A model regional portfolio in a merchant market
  • Balance in terms of fuel and merit order
  • Scale and market presence
  • Integrated operations and trading

A portfolio approach 2
Seeking benefits through integration
  • For example
  • Synergies with other processes eg. desalination
  • Reducing risk by securing fuel supply eg. SEA Gas
  • Cost saving and environmental initiatives eg.
    biomass co-firing

11
Desalination
Combining power generation and desalination
  • Lower cost of production
  • increase in cycle efficiency
  • spread of capital cost
  • virtual base load operation of desalination plant
  • Approximately 40 additional revenues from water
    in an IWPP with power/water ratio of 151
  • Integration of power and water becoming a
    standard of the IPP process in Mid East countries
  • Good precedent for development elsewhere

IPR has desalination capability at five assets in
its portfolio. At Shuweihat, the worlds largest
distillers are currently under construction (16.8
MIGD each)
12
Securing fuel supply
The SEA Gas Pipeline, Australia
  • Security of long-term fuel supply
  • Cost savings expands profit potential beyond
    spark spread
  • 680 km gas pipeline (with 18 diameter) from
    Victoria to South Australia
  • International Power, Origin Energy and TXU
    Australia as equal shareholders
  • Gas will be supplied to Pelican Point Power under
    a 10 year GSA with BHP Billiton
  • Energy corridor opportunities

13
Biomass co-firing 
Co-firing trials at Rugeley underway
  • Bio-fuel trials ongoing
  • Up to five bio-fuels to be trialled inc. sawdust
    and olive products
  • All necessary consents in place for trials
  • Registered with Ofgem for ROC and LECs (during
    trials)
  • Encouraging results so far
  • Moving towards commercial operation before end of
    2003

14
A portfolio approach 3
Tangible cost savings and other efficiencies
Sharing of personnel and practices around a
global portfolio
  • OM best practice
  • HR efficiencies
  • Procurement efficiencies
  • Technology efficiencies
  • Financing
  • Cash management

The cookie cutter approach
Opportunities for portfolio financing global and
regional banking relationships
15
A portfolio approach 4
A springboard for growth
  • Growth though acquisition and greenfield /
    brownfield development
  • Optimising the balance of merchant and contracted
    assets
  • And maintaining fuel diversity and spread across
    the merit order
  • By leveraging off our presence in regional markets

As a wholesale power generator, the keys to our
continued success are . . .
