DCP's Investment in Sunpower Group

BEIJING,Sept. 11,2018 -- DCP Capital ("DCP") today announced that it has invested a total ofUSD120 million through 2 rounds of Convertible Bonds to support the continued growth of Sunpower Group Limited ("Sunpower" or the "Company") (SGX: 5GD.SI). The investment will support Sunpower expand its valuable portfolio of Green Investments assets to capitalize on the enormous growth potential of the environmental services industry in China.

Sunpower is one of the leading environmental protection solution providers in China. The growing severity of PM2.5 air pollution across the country has prompted the government to introduce various pollution control policies. Regulations now require the phase out by 2020 of small high-emission coal-fired boilers used to generate heat and steam. As an alternative,centralized boilers deploying "clean-coal" technology have seen a significant increase in demand across China. Backed by its proprietary technologies in high efficient heat transfer,energy savings and ultra-low emissions,Sunpower has been successfully expanding into the Green Investments segment as an investor and operator of such centralized boiler facilities,supplying steam to industrial customers and providing heat to local residents as well as selling electricity to the State Grid.

In addition to the Green Investments business,the Company has built up a strong Environmental Manufacturing and Services (M&S) businesses over the past two decades. Sunpower has served approximately 1,500 customers in over 15 industries to date with a blue chip global client base including BP,BASF,Shell,SABIC,DowDuPont,Alcoa,Sinopec,PetroChina and CNOOC,among others. Supported by its advanced technology and high-precision manufacturing and project management expertise accumulated in the Company's M&S segment,Sunpower has gained a unique competitive edge in its Green Investments segment and is able to replace onsite coal-fired boilers in industrial parks with the centralized steam boilers that are more efficient and environmentally friendly. In particular,Sunpower's Green Investments projects are capable of achieving ultra-low emissions comparable to that of natural gas.

As an early mover in the industry,Sunpower has developed a robust portfolio and pipeline of projects through both greenfield projects and acquisitions of existing coalfired boilers. Sunpower's portfolio includes multiple Green Investments projects in operation or under construction in developed areas such as Jiangsu,Guangdong,Anhui,Shandong and Hebei provinces. The Company also has dozens of projects under evaluation. Given that many Green Investments projects are typically protected with 30-year concession agreements with exclusive rights to renew,Sunpower's portfolio of assets generate long-term,stable and recurring cash flows with attractive double-digit returns.

Mr. Guo Hong Xin,Executive Chairman of Sunpower,commented: "We are excited to have DCP's continued commitment and confidence in the long-term growth potential of Sunpower. The DCP team is among the most experienced and successful PE investors in China who brings us not only long-term capital but also operational valueadded partnership that supports our growth."
