Through automated modelling, the inspection needs to be accurate to within 5cm, as such the models have been rigorously audited to provide assurance to the business and maintenance teams. The LiDAR Lab project will see all LiDAR services moved in-house by 2021 to improve quality, minimise risks, reduce work hours and reduce costs SA Power Networks Upgrade Low Reliability Feeders 午 SA Power Networks have pursued a program to upgrade low reliability feeders in their worst performing parts of the network. This program was not required under the National Electricity Rules (NER) and was originally rejected by the AER in their draft decision Following further consultation with the Consumer Consultative Panel the program gained unanimous consensus and the upgrade was accepted in the AER's Final Determination based on the significant stakeholder support Solar-Sponge Tariff South Australia has the highest per capita level of rooftop solar. SAPN has created an innovative tariff structure for residential customers. This tariff offers a lower network charge during the middle of the day when solar output is highest, to encourage shifting of electricity use to those times Raising demand for grid supplied electricity in the middle of the day can help manage voltage issues and thermal overloads associated with low demand, while shifting demand away from the evening peak that can put heavy strain on the network Spark Infrastructure I Investor Presentation | August 2020 19#20INFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE FUTURE INVESTMENT IN INNOVATION Facilitating the energy transition for future generations $ TransGrid Bomen Solar Farm Multi-spectrum Inspections TransGrid has recently implemented an advanced targeted asset inspections program using combined photographic, infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) cameras to identify issues which are outside of the visual spectrum and in a single flight This aids in identifying issues which can't be detected from visual inspection alone and allows repairs to be planned in advance of a failure, driving pro- active and optimal asset management while reducing network risks Communication Network Upgrades A multi-year strategy has been created to deploy advanced communications infrastructure (MPLS-TP). This new network is envisaged to better enable data intensive inter-substation communications, support increasing needs for advanced cyber and physical security systems, and enable faster more reliable wide-area enterprise traffic solutions Upon completion in 2023 TransGrid will become the leader among Australian Transmission Network Service Providers (TNSPs) as the first to integrate protection-signaling across a Carrier Ethernet system Spark Infrastructure I Investor Presentation | August 2020 Bifacial Solar Panels Bomen Solar Farm became the first major project completed in Australia to install bifacial modular panels which produce up to 20% more output, delivering higher efficiencies and lower levelised costs of electricity (LCOE) when compared to monofacial panel technologies The technology is one of the most recent innovations in the industry which utilises the direct sunlight on the face of the panel whilst also picking up reflected sun from the ground received on the rear side of the panels Community Partnership Programs In partnership with Westpac, Spark Infrastructure has established a community fund to invest $1 million over ten years to support youth education and local biodiversity and vegetation programs $350,000 of these funds will be used to undertake a revegetation program to enhance biodiversity in the proximity of the Bomen precinct. It is anticipated planting would occur during the winter months of 2021/22 and would include between 40,000 and 50,000 plants 20 20#21INFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE FUTURE SAPN 2020-25 FINAL REGULATORY DETERMINATION The AER Final Decision establishes revenue certainty until 2025 Regulatory proposal 2015-20 Allowance (1) metric 2020-25 Draft Decision (2) 2020-25 Revised Proposal (2) 2020-25 Final Decision (2) Capex $2,011m $1,247m $1,693m $1,596m ($2019-20) The final decision is in line with expectations with improved capex and inflation outcomes Standard Control Services Revenue ($m) and RAB ($bn)(1)(2) $1,000 Opex $1,375m $1,473m(3) $1,470m $1,470m ($2019-20) $800 WACC 6.17% 4.95% 4.79% 4.75% $600 Risk-free 4.68 4.77 4.85 2.96% 1.32% 0.96% 0.90% 4.48 4.59 4.36 Rate $400 4.23 4.09 3.88 3.93 Inflation 2.50% 2.45% 2.36% 2.27% $200 Gamma Revenue (Nominal) 0.4 0.585 0.585 0.585 $3,769m $3,905m $3,933m $3,914m FY16 FY17 FY18 FY19 FY20 FY21 Revenue Allowance Revised Proposal (Revenue) FY22 FY23 FY24 Draft Determination (Revenue) Final Decision (Revenue) FY25 Regulated Asset Base The majority of SA Power Networks' Revised Proposal was accepted by the AER in the Final Decision released on 5 June 2020 (1) AER Final Decision 2015-2020, October 2015 updated to $2020 (2) AER Final Decision Overview, June 2020.(3) AER Draft Decision Overview, October 2019.

The timing of when a decision will be handed down is unknown but is estimated to be late 2020 The impact to Spark Infrastructure was recognition of a $68.8m tax liability in respect of 2015-18, this amount was paid in full in two tranches in 2019 and 2020.

Spark Infrastructure has paid tax to date of $113.0m Should VPN be successful on either or both matters: Less H2 2019 Tax Liability Effective cash tax rate on a go forward basis expected to reduce by approximately 6% in the short term until reinstated tax losses are recouped If successful on both matters, circa $87m of prior year tax payments re SAPN/SIH2 are expected to be recovered (subject to any appeal to the High Court) Other impacts not expected to be material: if tax deferred at VPN level (expected but short-term timing only), Spark Infrastructure will pay tax on incremental unfranked dividends received Spark Infrastructure I Investor Presentation | August 2020 45#46INFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE FUTURE NETWORK BUSHFIRE UPDATE Not expected to have a material impact upon the businesses . . SA Power Networks South Australia experienced a number of fires between mid-November 2019 and late January 2020. Across those fires the damage to electricity infrastructure has been estimated between $5m- $10m SA Power Networks regulatory determinations includes cost pass throughs for “natural disaster events" which covers bushfires; however they will not be applying for the cost pass through for network damages as it is calculated as a return on capex, not on the value of the damage itself A class action claim has been filed against SA Power Networks in relation to the Yorke Peninsula fire The AER accepted a late submission in February 2020 seeking additional funding for inevitable increases in liability insurance premiums. This has resulted in an increase to 2020-25 revenue of approximately $16m TransGrid Damage was recorded to assets in the northern and southern parts of NSW with interruptions also recorded on the Queensland to NSW interconnector (QNI) and the Victoria and NSW Interconnector (VNI) TransGrid's regulatory determination includes cost pass throughs for "natural disaster events" which covers bushfires The National Electricity Rules (NER) require that the event must meet a materiality threshold being 1% of the maximum allowed revenue (MAR) for the relevant year (the threshold is therefore $7.6m for TransGrid) TransGrid expects to meet the threshold and have requested and received approval from the AER for an extension of time from 90 to 180 business days from the end of the fires (2 March 2020) to submit the application.

Actual X-factors are updated using actual cost of debt. (4) On 16 May 2018, the AER advised by letter a revocation and substitution of TransGrid's transmission determination for the 2014-18 regulatory period. The AER also advised by email on 23 April 2018 that adjustments ($10.8m) to the 2017-18 MAR are to be included in the price calculations for 2019-20. (5) SA Power Networks is not required to apply an X factor for 2020/21 because the AER set the 2020/21 expected revenue in its Final Determination. The expected revenue for 2020/21 is around 9.4% lower than the approved total annual revenue for 2019/20 in real terms, or 7.3 % lower in nominal terms.
