M Power Sustainability Approach and Framework Understanding Qatar’s Sustainable Development Context

Qatar has set ambitious goals for its long-term growth, focusing on the human, societal and environmental aspects of sustainable economic development. These goal shave been articulated clearly in the Qatar National Vision (QNV) 2030, a framework orchestrating governmental and private-enterprise responses to the challenges of sustainable development. With the commitment to increasing the wellbeing of Qatari citizens, the Qatar National Development Strategy 2011-2016lays out a carefully designed programme of enhancements in education and healthcare. It also outlines social protection and employment opportunities necessary for the creation of a prosperous, stable and secure society. In line with the QNV 2030 and the Qatar National Development Strategy; the Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) Regulations and Enforcement Directorate (DG) has developed the energy and industry sector’s Sustainable Development Industry Reporting (SDIR) Programme. This programme encourages Qatar industries to combat climate change and work towards improved economic and social development.

M Power is committed to contributing to Qatar’s sustainable development through its active contribution to national and sectoral priorities and plans.

M Power is committed to contributing to Qatar’s sustainable development through its active contribution to national and sectoral priorities and plans.

M Power’s Sustainability Approach and Framework

To identify M Power’s business interests and the overlap with its stakeholders’ sustainability priorities, we conducted a materiality assessment in 2011 through an analysis of our external context, the national strategy and vision, and an assessment of our internal and external stakeholders' expectations. We aim to update our materiality assessment every year. In 2012, there was no major change to the results of our materiality assessment. We aim to conduct a more in-depth update to the materiality assessment in 2013 as part of developing our 5-year sustainability strategy.

Delivering Clean, Efficient and Reliable Power

Delivering Clean, Efficient and Reliable Power Supporting Qatar’s development...through delivering clean, efficient and reliable power

Electricity is the most common form of energy supplied to users in the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. In addition to providing Kahramaa with up to 2,002 MW of electricity on demand, M Power also contributes to the overall energy development of other GCC countries, through the connections between Qatar’s electricity system and other countries’ systems. In late 2011, M Power Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contractor closed out and handed over the power plant project and system to M Power’s team. Despite the challenging transition period in 2012, M Power’s team has shown unrivalled performance by operating the power plant in a more clean, efficient, reliable and safe manner compared to previous years.

Providing Clean Power... to Mitigate Climate Change M Power recognises the challenges that the world faces as a result of climate change. We are also aware that Qatar’s environmental footprint is deemed one of the worst in the world per capita. Management of the industrial emissions which cause climate change is becoming an increasingly greater burden to international development; prompting national and international industrial responses such as the QNV 2030 and the SDI initiative. M Power’s delivery of cleaner power is thus of critical importance to Qatar’s campaign against climate change.

"M Power’s electricity is generated via burning of the cleanest fossil fuel available; natural gas" 11

S U S TA I N A B I L I T Y R E P O R T 2 0 1 2 MESAIEED POWER COMPANY

M Power’s electricity is generated via burning of the cleanest fossil fuel available; natural gas. Thus, M Power’s use of natural gas, supplied by QP, allows us to deliver clean power to Qatar while minimising Qatar’s emissions of pollutants. Greenhouse Gas Emissions In 2012, M Power’s natural gas consumption increased by 20.5% and our plant load factor increased by 27.6% compared to our 2011 numbers. In 2012 our operations released 2,508,540 tonnes of greenhouse gas (GHG) into the atmosphere, an increase of 19.8% compared to our total GHG emissions in 2011, which reflects good optimisation of natural gas in our operations.

Reduced environmental impact.

* The 2010 and 2011 GHG emissions numbers have been slightly updated based on our enhanced calculations. This updated scope in the calculation will ensure more accurate GHG emissions reporting in forthcoming years.

M Power’s plant is equipped with a Continuous Emission Monitoring System (CEMS), fully available to operators. It is capable of monitoring and storing historical data for reporting purposes. CEMS monitors and records Nitrogen Oxide (NOx), Sulphur Oxide (SOx), Carbon Monoxide (CO), opacity and ammonia slip.

GHG resulting from the burning of natural gas to produce electricity makes up the largest part of our emissions, and contributed almost 99.9% of M Power’s total GHG emissions in 2012. With our plant load factor going up year after year, we fully expect our GHG emissions to continue to rise as the plant ramps up to full capacity in response to Qatar’s increasing demand for electricity. However, as the plant approaches full capacity, the impact of our efforts to improve efficiency and optimisation will become increasingly more apparent.

Enhanced profitability.

M Power’s plant is a state-of-the-art power station, using the best technology available to achieve a high degree of efficiency in generating electricity. Achieving the best efficiency rate also requires close coordination and collaboration with our offtaker: Kahramaa.

In M Power’s current fuel pass-through system, Kahramaa pays fuel costs to M Power according to guaranteed equipment performance, while M Power pays Qatar Petroleum for actual fuel consumption cost. Equipment performance is determined by employing a mathematical representation using thermodynamic modelling, called a Fuel Demand Model. This system is designed to assure Kahramaa that M Power maximises its fuel gas consumption for every kilowatt hour delivered, and that it limits its payables to the guaranteed level. Our focus, therefore, is on maintaining a high level of plant performance, as any deficiency becomes M Power’s operational and financial risk.

NOx and SOx Emissions Using Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology, our NOx emissions in 2012 were limited to 9 parts per million (ppm).

All of M Power’s emissions are reported directly to the Ministry of Environment on a quarterly basis. Every effort is made to keep M Power’s emissions within the acceptable limits by continuous monitoring; closely following the maintenance schedule of all emissions control equipment and immediately attending to any deviances. In 2012, M Power successfully kept its emission levels within the limits set by the Ministry of Environment.

Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) Technology for Managing our NOx Emissions The combustion process of the Gas Turbine cycle of electricity generation results in the creation of nitrogen oxides (NOx). In order to meet Qatar’s environmental regulations of NOx emissions, a DeNOx system featuring Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) is employed at the M Power plant. SCR reduces NOx emissions by reacting ammonia (NH3) with NOx in the presence of a catalyst at a specified temperature range. The reaction forms atmospheric nitrogen (N2) and water vapour (in simplified form).

Energy Utilisation in a Combined Cycle Power Plant In a typical combined cycle power plant utilising the latest design technology, gross plant efficiency can reach levels as high as 58.3%, with 37.4% of electricity produced from the gas turbine and 20.9% from the steam turbine, as shown in the diagram below.

The combined cycle mode is a win/win situation for M Power and Kahramaa from cost benefit analysis perspective, because it helps: GAS TURBINE POWER (37.4%)

Achieve the best utilisation of Qatar’s natural gas. Reduce factored fire hours, which enable M Power to reduce marginal cost and help Kahramaa to optimise the running hours for the plant.

FUEL to Gas Turbine

As a result of these efforts, we managed to run our plant on combined cycle almost 100% of the time during 2012. Combined Cycle: The Best Technology Available for Efficient Operations In the combined cycle system, natural gas is fed into the gas turbine generating unit, which converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. The heat produced by the gas turbine is used to convert water into steam via Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSGs), which then power a steam turbine generator to produce additional electricity. This combination of gas and steam turbine generators improves the overall efficiency of the plant

Net Plant Efficiency Net plant efficiency is a statistic that represents the percentage of input energy resulting in the production of electricity. In 2012, we achieved 50.52% net plant efficiency compared to 48.06% in 2011.Net plant efficiency in the region of 54% is considered an industry benchmark for combined cycle power plants. However, net plant efficiency is affected by grid demand and ambient conditions, as off-peak periods require delivery of electricity at lower loads. Therefore, M Power’s plant will meet or surpass the industry benchmark for efficiency once it has reached full capacity.

Net Plant Heat Rate Another important indicator for measuring plant efficiency is the net plant heat rate. This rate measures the amount of fuel burnt to produce 1 kWh of electricity, and a low net plant heat rate indicates greater operational efficiency. In 2012, M Power’s net plant heat rate was 7,127 kJ/kWh; a 4.9% improvement on our 2011performance. We aim to further reduce our net plant heat rate by operating within the best possible configuration and employing all techniques available to optimise usage of energy. Auxiliary Power Auxiliary power refers to the electricity consumed to support primary electricity generation operations. M Power generates its own auxiliary power; therefore reducing our auxiliary power consumption ensures production and sales of greater amounts of electricity from the same input of natural gas. In 2012 the auxiliary power consumed made up 2.82% of the total electricity generated. This represented a 16.6% reduction from the amount consumed during 2011. This improvement was achieved mainly due to the following reasons:

Plant Availability The ‘plant availability’ statistic measures the percentage of time a plant and equipment are available for operation over a given year. M Power’s plant began its operations in the second half of 2010, and has undergone continuous modification and optimisation while in operation.

Availability 90.63%

To further reduce our auxiliary power consumption, we are in the process of implementing a project for the modification of steam turbines, seal and sparge steam. This will minimise the requirement of a starting auxiliary boiler; thus reducing fuel and auxiliary power.

We have improved our plant reliability and availability in 2012 due to the following reasons:

Availability (%)

Providing Reliable Power The people and businesses of Qatar rely on Kahramaa and the independent power producers to provide a secure, stable and reliable flow of electricity. Stability and reliability of electricity production are thus crucial for national development and economic growth. Continuous availability and consistent reliability are integral parts of M Power’s vision and mission, and are achieved through coordinated planning, timely maintenance and clear communication with all key stakeholders.

The close out of most outstanding warrantee issues from M Power’s EPC contractor side by the end of 2011, which resulted in minimum shut downs in 2012. For example, the condenser tube cleaning system came into operation in 2012, while the condenser tube cleaning which requires equipment shutdown was done manually beforehand.

Plant Reliability Reliability is a plant’s statistical ability to perform without failure over a given period of time, and is a reflection of technical know-how in equipment installation, operation and proper maintenance. Since forced outages affect plant reliability, we strive to minimise unforeseen downtime by proactively attending to areas of concern.

Reliability (%)

Auxiliary power also includes the electricity which M Power imports from the grid during total plant scheduled outages, such as during major upgrades to the gas system. In 2012, M Power imported only 14 MWh from the grid, compared to 688 MWh imported from the grid in 2011.

Maintenance Qatar has set ambitious goals for its long-term growth, focusing on the human, societal and environmental aspects In order to optimise availability and reliability, M Power works hard to keep its plant healthy through well-planned and collaborative maintenance programmes. In 2012, unplanned outages were reduced and the M Power team achieved improved maintenance records. This was as a result of previously mentioned improvements and the following factors:

Close out of outstanding warranty issues from M Power’s EPC contractor side, Completion of most equipment modifications as per equipment manufacturers’ recommendations, Completion of maintenance management system programming, and Effective use of the maintenance management system.

We managed to reduce corrective maintenance from 67% of total maintenance in 2011 to 43% in 2012. Preventive maintenance made up the remaining 57%. We have also recorded zero unplanned shut downs and zero total plant shut downs, which resulted in enhanced plant availability. M Power team has also shown excellent performance; and improved experience and skills in completing required maintenance records well ahead of the deadlines identified in the original plans, which also helped to enhance plant availability.

Additionally, to minimise our energy consumption, we have implemented several measures including:

Reducing Our Environmental Impact

1) Plant lighting system controlled by a photo cell and timer. The timer’s settings are reviewed and changed regularly to avoid the lighting system switching ON during daylight. 2) Continuously monitoring the air conditioning system in all plant areas to ensure efficiency, and

Beyond providing the cleanest power possible for Qatar’s development, M Power is committed to operating its plant in a way that ensures minimal local environmental impact. This is accomplished through:

Resource optimisation

Waste Management

Resource optimisation

The first step in reducing our environmental impact is optimisation of our use of natural environmental resources, including energy, water and materials. Energy consumption M Power consumes different types of fuel for different purposes, with the most significant fuel consumption taking the form of natural gas used to produce electricity. In 2012, M Power consumed 1,251 million standard cubic meters (MSCM) of natural gas in its electricity generation operations. Diesel fuel is also consumed to run the fire pump, emergency generators and ‘black start’ turbines in case of a total plant shutdown. Due to optimised routine testing regimes, our diesel consumption for such purposes was 48 m3 in 2012, a 46.7% decrease compared to 90 m3in 2011. This diesel was used for testing emergency equipment and for carrying out routine checks to ensure reliability and availability.

Environment Management System M Power is committed to responsible stewardship of the natural environment; and the minimisation of the environmental impact of company operations is essential for business efficiency, financial performance and success as a concerned and responsible member of the community. M Power’s environmental management system, which is based on ISO 14001 and ISO 19011, outlines the ways in which it intends to fulfil its policy commitment with regard to the protection and safeguarding of the environment. This pertains to operations and maintenance activities carried out by M Power and its contractors and subcontractors within the company. M Power is committed to adopting specific procedures with respect to particular areas of environmental management, and specific standard operating procedures compliant with local and international environmental rules and regulations. Management will take sufficient initiative for continual improvement in systems for the adoption of best environmental management.

Water consumption Water conservation is a national priority, and M Power is committed to ensuring that its operations have a minimal impact on Qatar’s water supply, primarily through efforts to reduce water consumption.

M Power uses different types of water for different purposes: For electricity generation, a closed cooling seawater system is employed, Utilising cooling towers to reduce the once-through water load and minimise the temperature of the water discharged to the Arabian Gulf. The cooling towers are required to cool the water used in the combined cycle operation.

Seawater is desalinated (using reverse osmosis technology) and used for: - Producing demineralised water for the generation process. - The plant fire-fighting system. - Evaporative coolers used for the gas turbines. - Other general services, such as cleaning and washing.

Potable water is purchased and used for internal plant usage. We anticipate a modification to the water treatment plant which will enable us to produce our own potable water.

In 2012, M Power also consumed 56 m3 of gasoline to maintain its small vehicle fleet. Although fairly insignificant in comparison to our natural gas consumption, M Power is committed to recording and reporting on all types of direct and indirect energy consumption, allowing us to monitor our full environmental footprint and work steadily towards reducing it. Indirect energy consumption takes the form of electricity used to carry out maintenance work, such as during scheduled or forced total plant outages or plant restoration.

3) Installation of energy-efficient lights in all buildings, and an awareness campaign emphasising efficient use of energy which was provided to all employees. Signage and useful bulletins on efficient energy use have been posted in conspicuous places within M Power’s buildings, as a constant reminder of the importance of energy conservation in the workplace. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

In addition to making improvements to efficiency, M Power has taken several measures to reduce its auxiliary power consumption, as explained in the ‘Delivering Clean, Efficient and Reliable Power’ section of this report.

In 2012, M Power consumed 127,317 m3 of water, which represents an increase of 115% from 59,245 m3 in 2011. This large increase in our water consumption during 2012 was mainly due to running the plant in the combined cycle mode that requires demineralised water make-up. In 2012, the energy used by the water treatment plant increased at the same rate of115% to reach 3,380,269 kWh, which made2% of M Power’s total auxiliary power in the same year.

In 2012, our chemical consumption increased by 156% compared to our 2011 consumption. The reasons behind this increase in chemical consumption are: 1) After the project hand over from M Power’s EPC contractor to M Power’s team in late 2011, we started purchasing and tracking the chemicals used for our water treatment plant. These chemicals were not included in our 2011 numbers, 2) M Power’s sewage treatment plant began its commissioning activities in 2012, which required chemicals to treat sewage water, and 3) Running the power plant on combined cycle almost continually in 2012 required a higher amount of ammonia within the SCR to control NOx emissions. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Waste Management Whenever possible, M Power’s waste management practices follow the ‘Three Rs’ of waste reduction: reduce, reuse and recycle. Our commitment to efficiency and resource optimisation is reflected in our many efforts to reduce the waste generated by our operations. Waste produced can be classified as either wastewater or solid waste, some of which is hazardous.

An authorised and specialised contractor is responsible for the disposal of all types of M Power waste. The waste is disposed of at governmental approved/authorised waste dumping yards depending on the type of waste. The contractor is obliged to follow the standard set out by the authorities of these disposal yards. We are committed to working collaboratively with our contractors to ensure compliance with all applicable laws. We have checked our contractor’s compliance with the Public Work Authority (ASHGAL) in disposing M Power’s waste by visiting the dumping area and checking our trucks, and have observed no issues of non-compliance.

Waste water In 2012, M Power disposed of 98,989 m3 of process wastewater and 3,967 m3 of sewage wastewater. Both M Power’s on-site wastewater treatment plants started operations by the year 2012 and produce water that can be used for irrigation purposes. However, the treated water is currently dumped out by our waste disposal contract because the Green Belt project is still being developed. The construction, landscaping and installation of the irrigation system for our Green Belt project began in 2012. Completion of that project is planned for the second half of 2013 when M Power will be able to reuse all its wastewater. M Power’s cooling water is discharged back to sea. In order to prevent the build-up of high salt concentrations in the cooling towers, M Power utilises a make-up and blowdown system, whereupon fresh seawater is

introduced into the cooling water circuit and a portion of the water from the cooling water basin is discharged back to the sea. Nevertheless, M Power regularly monitors its blowdown salinity and regulates the system to prevent potentially exceeding the Ministry’s 10% limit. In 2012, our salinity was within the allowable limit. As per the requirement of ‘consent to operate’ issued to M Power by the Ministry of Environment, the allowable maximum temperature difference between the sea water inlet and discharge is 3degrees Celsius . On average M Power operated below this limit in 2012. Additionally, in order to safeguard marine life, it is important that the chlorine content in seawater discharge be limited to 0.05 ppm. M Power adheres to this limit, and will continue to do so.

Operating Safely at All Times Concern for the safety and health of our employees, our contractors, our plant and the MIC community lies at the heart of the M Power company culture. We are committed to achieving and maintaining a state of ‘zero injuries’ for all employees and contractors.

Occupational Health and Safety Management System

Occupational health and safety is a cross- disciplinary area concerned with protecting the safety, health, and welfare of people engaged in work or employment. M Power continuously aims to achieve zero lost-time injury and fatalities for its workforce, through a policy and programme that integrates electricity production and health and safety. This is achieved through stages of consultation, training and professional guidance to ensure that appropriate levels of health and safety training are provided for personnel at all levels.

On-the-Spot Reporting One important component of our occupational health and safety management systems is on-thespot reporting of safety breaches. Our safety system requires all employees and contractors to directly report any potential safety dangers or breaches, and enables them to request an immediate work stoppage of any type of work. If such a stoppage requires partial or full shutdown of main operations, the case must be reported directly to the shift supervisor and safety officer. Telephones and radio systems are located in all areas of the plant to facilitate communication between the workforce, the engineer in charge of each duty shift, the Environment, Health and Safety (EHS) officer, and the Human Resources (HR) office.

We conduct regular risk assessments to maximise safety and identify any changing risks. This enables risks to be encompassed in the health and safety working procedure and ensures that any health and safety deficiencies can be addressed immediately. Another element of our safety management system is the regular review of all safety procedures to ensure their continued relevance and to identify any necessary updates. As of the end of 2012, we had reviewed and approved 100% of our safety procedures.

Contractor Environment, Health and Safety (EHS) Policy M Power’s ‘Contractor EHS Policy’ aims to establish a method to qualify contractors from an EHS standpoint, to perform work at M Power Plant, and to identify the minimum EHS requirements for contractors that are selected to perform the work at M Power plant.

Advanced Health and Safety Training Practices and Performance The provision of safety training and incident reporting on an ongoing basis forms the foundation of a safe work environment at M Power.

Health and safety training

Another element of our safety management system is the regular review of all safety procedures to ensure their continued relevance and to identify any necessary updates. As of the end of 2012, we have reviewed and approved 90% of our safety procedures.

Health performance

Workforce Safety Performance Prior to commencing work, all employees and contractors are provided with 4 different safety trainings: 2 basic trainings and 2 plant-specific procedure trainings. Safety induction training is also provided for all visitors to the plant. In 2012, we conducted 13 occupational health and safety trainings, of which 2 were conducted through a specialised third party and 11 were conducted internally to different M Power teams. Internally conducted trainings are very important for improving our health and safety performance as they are delivered in 3 different languages and benefit from sharing expertise and lessons in different locations of operations at the plant. In the same year, we also conducted 312management and supervisory EHS ‘toolbox talks’ discussing day-to-day EHS issues, 263 EHS ‘toolbox talks’ to our contractors, and 47‘walkdowns’, or weekly plant tours, intended to identify potential EHS deficiencies. A total of 1,525 hours of health and safety training were provided for our employees and contractors in 2012, which exceeded our 2012 target of conducting 1,240 hours. This is a 74% increase of the 876 hours provided in 2011.

Plant and Process Safety Performance M Power places significant attention on ensuring that our plant is a safe working environment for all of our employees and contractors, and for the surrounding community. This focus has resulted in dedicated efforts to eliminate or mitigate all dangers related to plant system operations and processes. Occupational risks All work in an electrical plant includes an element of inherent danger, as electro-mechanical systems are designed to generate and transmit high voltages of electricity. In recognition of this, our systems are designed so that they may be operated under normal conditions without danger, following routine procedures correctly and using suitable equipment. Regular safety checks of all systems, processes and equipment are conducted to ensure they exhibit no abnormal safety concerns that may threaten the plant, our employees or our contractors. We have also achieved 100% incident investigation in 2012 which is essential for the reduction of occupational risk through the elimination of root causes. We also achieved zero loss of containment for the third consecutive year.

Following M Power’s contractor EHS policy, we have achieved an improved performance concerning our contractors’ health and safety. In 2012, our contractors worked 337,253 man-hours with zero fatalities and zero lost-time injuries compared to one lost-time and one minor injury in 2011. There were zero ‘near misses’ in 2012compared to 5 ‘near misses’ in 2011.

Workforce Health Performance Health and safety are of equal importance to M Power. Occupational health is managed as part of our occupational health and safety management system. At M Power we conduct at least one health check for all our employees. As an additional measure to ensure a healthy workforce and to be able to deal with urgent health cases, M Power plans to have its own first aid clinic. As part of our preparations to receive an on-site clinic licence from the Supreme Council of Health, M Power has equipped its future facility with all equipment necessary to deal with small and medium health cases. We have also signed an agreement with a hospital to provide a full-time nurse and expect to start operating our clinic in the second quarter of2013. In 2012, we reported zero occupational illness rate. However we are committed to providing further training for our employees at all levels, and actively increasing their awareness of M Power’s occupational illness reporting procedure.

Fire safety No fire incidents have been recorded to date, which is a record we expect to maintain. To ensure we are prepared for emergencies, we conducted three fire drill trainings for our employees and contractors in 2012. Our plan was to conduct 4 fire drills; however we conducted 27 other fire fighting trainings, most of which included fire drill training for specific teams in the plant.

As per our 2012 commitment, we have approved the procurement of a fire fighting truck which will be on-site in the second half of 2013. Emergency response and preparedness M Power has a range of emergency response work instructions in place to ensure a high level of preparedness for any unexpected emergencies, disturbances or circumstances. The main objective of these work instructions is to minimise damage to personnel, the environment and equipment.

Our employees are the key to our success. We are therefore deeply committed to providing a fair and healthy work environment, to investing in ouremployees by developing their skills and qualifications, and to ensuring employee satisfaction in order to attract and retain top talent.

Our emergency response and preparedness procedures are aligned to the MIC Mutual Aid Agreement in which all MIC companies are committed to share their available safety and fire fighting resources with other companies facing safety risks. The MIC Crisis Management Team also communicates and coordinates with the local municipality and community population, neighbouring industries, civil defence, Qatar emergency services (fire and police departments), and all relevant ministries in case of emergency.

* FM-200® is a colourless, liquefied compressed gas. It is stored as a liquid and dispensed into the hazard as a colourless, eclectically non-conductive vapour that is clear and does not obscure vision. It leaves no residue and has acceptable toxicity for use in occupied spaces at design concentration. FM-200® does not displace oxygen and therefore is safer for use in occupied spaces without fear of oxygen deprivation.

Investing in People At M Power, our employees are the key to our success. We are therefore deeply committed to providing a fair and healthy work environment; to investing in our employees by developing their skills and qualifications; and to ensuring employee satisfaction in order to attract and retain top talent. Our Human Resources (HR)department has developed the necessary policies to manage all aspects of HR, including recruitment, salaries, allowances, incentives, remuneration and expenses, working hours, performance appraisal, succession planning, official holidays and leave, job duties, and end-of-service procedures.

Equal opportunities are provided to all individuals of both genders who wish to join our workforce. At the end of 2012, we employed 4 women, representing 4.4% of our total workforce. To further encourage gender equality, a work environment that is friendly to both genders has been established at our offices. Following our relocation to MIC, commuting distance became a greater challenge for some employees, especially women; we are addressing this issue by providing transportation facilities for our employees.

Qatarization As part of our commitment to national development, we aim to actively support the Qatarization initiative. At the end of 2012, our Qatarization rate was 11.11%, which is 9.9% improvement compared to 10.11% Qatarization rate in 2011. M Power participates in all Qatarization committees and AWPP/IPP HR committees to meet its target for Qatarization and to provide locals with chances for training, development and familiarisation. However, hiring nationals at the GCC countries is an increasing challenge, especially in such a high growth rate period. M Power plans to continue to increase its Qatarization, and to enhance its internal promotion scheme and implement a proper succession planning strategy.

Training and Development

Our employees are one of M Power’s core assets, and we view their personal and professional development as an investment in the company’s long-term success. M Power provides employee training based on individual needs and requirements and the results of each employee’s appraisal. Our training strategy is developed during fiscal budget preparations and yearly planning, and covers all targeted training areas, with special emphasis on employee encouragement and development. Prior to the close out and hand over of the project by our EPC contractor in late 2011, all our employees were on daily on-the-job training during the installation, configuration, and operations and maintenance phase with M Power’s EPC contractor and the original equipment manufacturer GE. We decided, therefore, that using our 2012 training numbers as the baseline for tracking our training records would be more reasonable. The total training hours in 2012 was 930 hours and the average training hours per employee was 10.3 in the same year. By developing a more focused training plan year after year, we expect the average training hours per employee to increase.

As M Power has a relatively small team, we encourage all of our employees to become familiar with additional administration and project management roles, even those that may be extraneous to their daily work. This cross-training is achieved by assigning employees to different tasks, including financial budgeting, report writing, monthly business reviews, and project management and reporting. We also try to build a constructive learning atmosphere that supports employee interactions, both within and between departments. This provides excellent opportunities for the sharing of knowledge about the company’s technical and commercial issues.

Employee advancement is based on performance, which is decided as a result of the performance appraisal that is conducted four times every year for all our employees. M Power’s appraisal system parameters are: task completion, work quality, communications, task knowledge, cost management, resource management and leadership. We appraise our employees based on these parameters and in relation to the 4 criteria below: 1) 2) 3) 4)

Achieving company’s targets. Achieving employee’s targets. Objective assessment – for the targets. Employee personal target – not considered in the final score of the appraisal, but it is used for individual career development. For example, the primary highlighted area in 2012 employees’ appraisal for personal target was reports and technical writing. We are committed to including report and technical writing courses within our 2013 training plan.

Employee Satisfaction and Retention Employee Engagement As a close and compact team, we maintain an open-door policy as our main approach to employee engagement. Employees at all levels are able to easily communicate their issues to their supervisors and managers, and also to the CEO. Additionally, employees are encouraged to communicate with their managers and particularly to discuss quarterly individual performance appraisal. Responsibility and collaboration are required from all of our employees, and teamwork is necessary at all times to ensure the smooth running of the organisation. To achieve effective communication and employee engagement we have conducted more English courses to the employees who need it and we will focus further on English courses in our 2013 training plan. Wages and Benefits In order to attract and retain top talent, M Power provides all of its employees with a competitive package of benefits including: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.

Annual bonus Housing allowances Transportation allowances Airfare for international employees and their families Health insurance for employees and their families Education allowances for children Migrant fees Social security End of services award

In 2012, we developed a new ‘Special Rewards for Work Excellence’ scheme for excellent employee performance including: Kahramaa Switching Authorisation, Special Skills, and Prevention of Loss and/or Business Interruption. The director and the employee(s) concerned should meet the management to present the achievement. Employee(s) will be rewarded a 10,000 QAR upon presentation to the management.

Turnover Our efforts in managing our HR and providing them with a flexible and friendly work environment, and competitive and encouraging benefits have paid off with 56% improved turnover rate among our employees in 2012

Human Rights at M Power M Power does not tolerate any kind of forced labour, child labour, or discrimination within the company. In terms of contractors the company will act within applicable laws to protect contractors’ employees while working at M Power. A grievance system for M Power employees has been put in place, through which we encourage all of our employees to report human rights issues of any kind in the strictest of confidence. We will communicate the grievance system to our contractors and encourage them to report any such cases as well. We are proud to have experienced zero reportable cases of human rights violations since the company’s inception.

Supporting our Employees’ Personal Targets In 2012, we supported one of our Qatari employees to obtain his Bachelor degree in Science in Computing; a 4 semester course over 2 years. M Power is sponsoring the full course with 28,635 QR per semester.

Financial Optimisation Achieve Strong and Stable Financial Performance M Power utilises a thorough and dynamic financial model designed to monitor and benchmark the company’s financial position and performance. This model is detailed in M Power’s 25-year terms and considers the purchase agreement with Kahramaa and the fuel supply agreement with Qatar Petroleum. These agreements ensure that M Power’s operations are run in the most efficient manner possible, with the support and coordination of Kahramma and QP; this in turns ensures the best use of Qatar’s natural gas and M power assets. M Power’s financial performance is monitored and managed by our finance and administration division, which includes the finance and commercial, financial control, HR, and IT departments. We issue monthly, quarterly, and yearly financial reports, all of which are in compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The annual reports are audited both internally and externally. M Power’s improved plant load factor, efficiency, availability and reliability performance have been reflected in improved financial performance. In 2012, we exceeded our financial targets by 15%. In 2012, our net profit increased by 4.9% to reach 259 million QR, compared to 247 million QR in 2011. Our operating cost increased in 2012 due to higher power generation resulting in higher fuel consumption, and due to higher operations and maintenance costs.

M Power Risk Register M Power’s strong financial performance ensures our long-term stability while positively impacting our shareholders, lenders and nation. Based on this understanding, managing our risks is essential for protecting our assets and financial performance. In 2012, we developed ‘M Power’s Risk Register’, as a result of continuous and regular mee tings of the Operational Risk Management Committee (ORMC). The benefits of this register have been demonstrated in prioritising the impact of risks on company targets. The register has helped us to secure financial and practical resources to attend to areas of risk in a timely manner, while eliminating and lessening any impact on efficiency. Risk is the element of uncertainty in any given scenario. M Power has focused on identifying unfavourable risks so that timely management procedures can be devised to handle such situations.

Enhance our Indirect Economic Impact “An additional consequence of the direct impact of financial transactions and the flow of money between an organisation and its stakeholders is called indirect economic impact... Indirect impacts are an important aspect of an organisation’s role as a participant or agent in socioeconomic change. Indirect impacts are particularly important to assess and report in relation to local communities and regional economies.” ...Global Reporting guidelines

M Power’s largest contribution to Qatar’s community is provision of electricity. M Power produces more than 20% of Qatar’s electricity, which is used in all aspects of national development. Therefore, we perceive excelling in our core business of providing clean, efficient and reliable power as active participation in the socioeconomic development of Qatar. We are always seeking to thoroughly understand and develop our indirect economic impact in a wider context. One type of indirect economic impact derives from the support given to our employees, both intangible (via professional development) and tangible (in the form of financial compensation and benefits). Wages and benefits paid to our employees in 2012 totalled 26.9 million QR. Electrical power generation is a highly technical industry and local suppliers and contractors who possess the requisite expertise are not always readily available, however M Power is committed to giving priority to local suppliers and contractors where possible. Some international companies have established Qatari companies which helped us to enhance our local procurement. In 2012, 76.9% of M Power’s total payments to suppliers and contractors was spent on local suppliers and contractors, which represents 15% reduction compared to our spending on local suppliers and contractors in 2011. This reduction was mainly due to lack of availability of specific skills and expertise in the local market, which we have fulfilled by working with reputable international service providers instead. The total payment to contractors and suppliers in 2012 was 91.2 million QR, which does not include the natural gas payment which we received from QP. In 2012 we paid 183.5 million QR for the natural gas which is used for generating electricity.

Good Governance M Power’s governance system and structure are designed to guarantee that objectives are properly set, sound decisions are made, risks are monitored and assessed with vigilance, and performance is optimised. A diverse and experienced Board of Directors and roster of shareholders provide clear direction and oversight, with strong management systems and stakeholder engagement processes in place for systematic and accountable implementation. Board of Directors M Power’s highest governing body is its shareholders who are represented on the M Power Board of Directors. The Board of Directors oversees the organisation’s corporate strategy, plans and targets, management and budgeting. The Board also monitors M Power’s performance in all relevant economic, environmental and social areas, including operations and maintenance, financial position and performance, and HSE performance, through the audit committee and maintaining the risk register. The Board consists of 10 member-representatives of M Power’s shareholders. Members of the Board are selected via discussion between the audit committee, M Power’s CEO, and current Board members. Criteria for nomination to the Board include relevant experience, qualifications, interest and an absence of conflicts of interest, among other factors. The Board of Directors meets with M Power’s management team at least four times per year to discuss the company’s performance and to provide recommendations. The Board also meets with shareholders at least once per year in a General Assembly meeting, which is held to review the company’s performance–including the Board’s performance–and to obtain shareholders’ approval of the Board’s recommendations. The Board also contains a separate audit committee, chaired by a Board member and consisting of three other Board members. The role of this committee is to help observe the company’s performance and optimise analysis and management of risks, including corruption and conflicts of interests.

Management Systems

Corresponding to M Power’s utilisation of state-of-the-art technologies is its implementation of good management systems in all areas. M Power has developed a comprehensive environment management system and health and safety management system to oversee its direct and indirect environmental, health and safety performance. We have also developed HR policies and procedures which help to attract, develop and retain the best talent. An essential part of our management system is the regular review of policies and procedures to ensure relevance at all time through the integration of changes arising.

M Power also has an integrated risk management system, composed of: An operations risk management committee, which identifies all risks related to business. An enterprise risk management committee, which performs internal auditing and supervises the operations risk management committee. An external auditing committee, which reports to shareholders. The internal audit committee as per the Joint Venture agreement and article of association monitors the financial performance and position to report to shareholders. We also completed M Power’s risk register in 2012, as explained on page 39.

RISK MANAGEMENT COMMITTEES To safeguard the company’s assets and protect shareholders' interest we have established a mechanism of identifying, assessing, evaluating and mitigating risks, which enables us to make appropriate decisions. To achieve this, M Power has created two risk management committees at different levels. During 2012, The Operational Risk Management Committees (ORMC) presented the first risk register to Enterprise Risk Management Committee (ERMC). After due deliberation, ERMC presented this to the Board of Directors.

Risk Mitigation through Stakeholders’ Engagement According to M Power’s risk register, in 2012 excessive dust from the adjacent gabbros storage area was identified as an operational risk to M Power as it could accelerate corrosion for the power plant. Effective engagement with the MIC to identify the operational risks and other related risks has resulted in removing that adjacent gabbros area.

Appendix B – Report Parameters

Appendix C – GRI Statement

Profile: This is M Power’s 2012annual Sustainability Report, reflecting the organisation’s follow-up sustainability performance for the year 2012, and covering a range of environmental, social, financial and wider economic aspects. Scope and Boundary of the Report: M Power has analysed the sustainability issues within Qatar and within the electricity generation sector, and developed a materiality matrix for prioritising the identified material issues. There was no major change to our materiality assessment in 2012; however, we aim to conduct more in-depth updates to the materiality assessment in 2013 as part of the development of our 5-year sustainability strategy. We have aligned our sustainability approach to Qatar National Vision 2030 (QNV 2030) and the Sustainable Development Industry (SDI) initiative, which was launched by the Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) Regulations and Enforcement Directorate (DG) at the State of Qatar, as well as to its stakeholders’ needs and expectations. M Power then identified its priority sustainability areas and developed the sustainability framework which makes up the structure of this report. This report was developed based on the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) framework and indicators and the GRI electric utilities sector supplement, aiming to achieve Level A of the GRI application levels. We have also added an index for the International Petroleum Industry Environmental Conservation Association (IPIECA). Stakeholder Inclusiveness: M Power understands the needs and expectations of its stakeholders and has developed the stakeholder map shown on page 37 of this report. We believe this report covers and communicates with all our key stakeholders and we think that all the identified stakeholders will be interested to read our Sustainability Report. We also encourage them to provide feedback on our sustainability report using the feedback form and email we have added in appendix H. Comparability and Balance: This report provides data that covers our performance in the second half of 2010 (start date of our commercial operations) and full years for 2011 and 2012. This report communicates M Power’s successes as well as the main challenges in the economic, environmental and social aspects. This report uses the GRI G3.1 guidelines which provide a clear reporting framework and the GRI indicators which provide comparisons. Accuracy and Reliability: M Power has been careful to make sure that all information provided in this report is of the highest level of accuracy and reliability. We have used our management systems and test and measurement results to gather the information in this report. As stated in the report, some data for previous years were updated because we are updating our tracking system and put more efforts into unifying the scope of calculation to ensure more accurate data year after year. The measurement techniques we used for calculating our numbers include international standards such as the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), US Department of Energy, US EPA and other sources. Clarity of Information: M Power has put the sustainability information within this report in a clear and easy to communicate format, as well as using the GRI framework to make the report easy to read and understand. Assurance: This report has not been externally assured; however, the report was reviewed internally by all M Power’s departments and assessed by the GRI to identify the GRI application level check.
