C.R update for OVESCO board of directors 21/10/2020 24 CommuniHeat Barcombe

St Marys Church – potential project site ‘A’

▪ Small heat / private wire network serving Church and adjacent housing. Maybe 200-300 kW heating. ▪ Large field, assuming ~14,000m2 usable space • Solar PV ~ 0.12 kW/m2 = 1.7 MW • Power storage • Solar Thermal ~ 0.7 kW/m2 = 10 MW… • Boreholes ~ 4 kW per closed loop, ~2MWth in the field • Large thermal storage potential due to space ▪ Best usage of field will depend on power grid constraints e.g. • Could solar thermal with gas top up avoid some reinforcements. • Similar question relating to PV (with storage or without storage, potentially combined with a heat pump solution however building improvements will be required) ▪ The quantum of space lends itself to a mostly off grid solution which can benefit more than just the church and adjacent
