St1 Group

Reality check

Way forward

1 Company Vision

To be the leading producer and seller

of CO2-aware energy

St1 Group Founded in 1995 to operate in oil product wholesale business

• 2000 St1 Service Station chain (est. 1997) part of the company in Finland • 2006 St1 Biofuels Oy subsidiary of St1 Nordic Oy • 2007 ExxonMobil Finnish Affiliate, Esso Oy, acquired • 2009 Norsk Hydro Olje AB (Sweden) and Statoil Automat AS () acquired • 2010 St1 Energy Oy (Shell Oy), St1 Energy AB (Svenska Shell AB) and St1 Refinery AB (Shell Raffinaderi AB)

2 Business areas:

• Producing and selling of CO2-aware energy • Petroleum retailing at St1 and Shell site network • Oil refining • Biofuels production

Associated companies:

• North European Oil Trade Oy (NEOT Oy) / S-Group • TuuliWatti Oy/S-Voima Oy • St1 Avifuels Oy/StatoilHydro ASA

St1 Map

3 St1 Refinery, Gothenburg

Production in Sweden: St1 Refinery AB

• The “Koppartrans” refinery was built in 1947, start up 1949

• Taken over completely by Shell 1964

• Shell’s business in Sweden and Finland (except Aviation and LPG) acquired by St1 in December 2010

Capacity covers approx. 25% of the Swedish demand for oil products. • Operates supply and depots • ~200 refinery employees + 28 in terminal operations

• Integrated Ethanol production starts 2015, Q2

4 Bioproduction in Finland: St1 Biofuels Oy

“Turns waste into sustainable biofuels”

• St1 Biofuels Oy was established in 2006. • Pioneered in waste-based bioethanol production with several plants built. • The expertise of St1 Biofuels: biochemical processes, technology development, engineering, turn key project deliveries

• ~140 employees

St1 operates the

overall supply chain

for transport fuels

including production, distribution

and retail network

to the end consumer.

5 Our goal is to:

• Develop and commercialize functional and environmentally sustainable energy solutions • Deliver these solutions profitably

Each energy solution must be: • Technically ready for use today • Ecologically and ethically sustainable • Logistically feasible

Refinery • 5 Mm3 of crude intake per annum • Biocomponent imports since 2003

7 <2015 - 4 Etanolix® plants in Finland

Feedstock Capacity Food industry 5 – 10 million liters/year/unit process waste CO2 savings and residues Up to 90 %

Vantaa Etanolix® Hamina Etanolix®

Absolutation of ethanol

• Ethanol produced in Etanolix is centrally dehydrated in our Hamina absolutation plant. • Annual capacity 88 Mio liters of 99,8% ethanol

St1 has been building a network of ethanol plants across Finland since 2007 with the goal to produce around 300,000 m3 of ethanol for traffic fuel use from waste and side streams by 2020.

8 Etanolix® 2.0 – ethanol plant integration to the Refinery

Production capacity Etanolix 2.0 LIFE+ project • Ethanol (as per 100% EtOH) 5.000 m3/a •New raw material handling; receiving station Feedstock •Unique way of integrating the ethanol plant in a • Industrial bakery waste & industrial process conventional refinery residue •Production starts Q2 2015 • Out dated waste bread from shops and markets • Approx. 20.000 t/a feedstock is required Products • Anhydrous fuel grade ethanol • Liquid animal feed for farms / feed for biogas plant (AD)

Etanolix 2.0 - full integration with Refinery systems

Process sewer water treated in refinery water processing unit

Controlled from local control-room Good storage Safety systems capabilities Nitrogen for safety-inerting Instrument Air City-water

Refinery Ethanol Heat from refinery steam system

Brackish water for cooling connection to refinery cooling-system.

Ethanol direct to refinery blending tanks Deliveries by ordinary transport-solutions

9 Cellunolix® - sawmill side products

Feedstock characteristics Cellunolix® Plant • Non-food ligno-cellulosic material Feedstock: Saw dust and chips • High ethanol yield Product: Renewable Ethanol • Stable quality • Cost depending on local usage Capacity: 10-100 million liters/year/unit Sources CO2 savings: Up to 90 % Co-product: - Lignin based solid fuels • Wood industry -CO2 Collection systems st • Integrated to saw mill Units: 1 unit in Finland under • Direct transportation from saw mills construction – operation 2016

Other products Waste water • Lignin • Process waste water •Syrup • Turpentine •Furfural •Co2 ….

10 Investment of EUR 40 million, of which 30% is covered by an investment subsidy granted by the Ministry of Employment and the Economy for biorefineries producing transport biofuels.

When completed, the Cellunolix® plant will employ 15–20 people directly and about 15 people indirectly. During product development, planning and construction, the project will generate about 200 person-years of employment.

”Technology shift” in refineries

Traditional refinery

Plant integration with biounit Technology development; ‐co‐processing ‐new technologies

11 Future vision

Local production of feedstocks at e.g. forest industry installations

Way forward; how to profitably meet a ”renewable future” ?

$ Renewables, Bio Fossil

Subsidies? Tax breaks?

Time

12 Way forward

If handled correctly, the sustainability issue will become a growth engine to conduct the business forward !!

Thanks for Your attention!
