<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Response to InfraVest's June 2013 Statement regarding the Yuanli Self-Help Organization<br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In Yuanli, residents will continue to protest against the
InfraVest project until Infravest recognizes the many controversies surrounding
the project and there is greater resident involvement. More than 4,000 coastal
residents have signed the petition against InfraVest's unjust and poorly sited
project.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
InfraVest, having failed to inform (let alone involve) local
residents about the project in the first place, have not shown sincerity in
addressing the concerns of residents. InfraVest's so-called negations were in
actuality a use of political and economic influence to force through its plan
without consulting local residents.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yuanli Self-Help Organization has gained the support of
other communities across Taiwan which have faced similar issues with
InfraVest's irresponsible and poorly-managed projects. Many non-profit
organizations and citizen alliances, such as the Taiwan Association for Human
Rights, Green Citizens' Action Alliance, and Wild at Heart Legal Defense
Association, support our petitions against this threat to Taiwan's future of
renewable energy.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yuanli Self-Help Organization promotes clean energy options
in Taiwan and advocates for better regulation and citizen involvement in the
development of wind energy. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We condemn InfraVest for its continued attacks, use of
violence, and legal action against public participation (SLAPP), instead of
engaging in open discussion with local residents, and for taking media
attention away from the real issue: Taiwan's need for responsible wind energy.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Regarding InfraVest's slandering of our elected leader, Chen
Chin Hai, and other residents involved in local elections, their statements are
not only false, but unrelated to the central issue of wind energy development.
Referring to InfraVest's claim that we support nuclear energy, let us re-affirm
our stand that we support green energy development and oppose any development
that sacrifices people's standard of living and exploits rural areas.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yuanli Self-Help Organization calls for InfraVest to stop
harming local communities and the environment, and engage in sincere dialogue
with local residents.</div>

<span style="font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">German Wind Energy Firm InfraVest Violates Human Rights in
Taiwan</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
InfraVest, a subsidiary of German comapny VWIND AG is
currently involved in a highly controversial wind turbine investment on
Taiwan's west coast. In the absence of a thorough public consultation, and
taking advantage of loopholes in Taiwanese law, InfraVest has been able to
undermine rules governing the need for a proper environmental impact assessment
and proper wind turbine placement. This has led to the peaceful protest of
residents in Yuanli, Miaoli County. For the past two months, protestors have
been treated like criminals and have been accused of being anti-sustainable
energy rioters. The local Yuanli Self-Help Organization claims, in the
strongest way, that energy without democracy and public consultation is just as
harmful as non-sustainable energy.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Out of the 7,682 residents of Yuanli, 4,281 signed the
petition opposing the construction of wind turbines that are too close to human
settlement. Our concerns are as follows:</div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="mso-list: l1 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -18.0pt;">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin;"><span style="mso-list: Ignore;">1.<span style="font: 7.0pt "Times New Roman";">
</span></span></span>In total, there are to be 14 wind turbines (≥120
m) installed along 3 km of coastline, with the closest a mere 134m from human
settlement. A number of these have already been built in an area reserved for
bird conservation.</div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: l1 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -18.0pt;">

</span></span></span>Local residents were not adequately informed or
provided a proper public consultation session prior to construction, and InfraVest
manipulated data and paperwork to obtain approval from the EPA without proper
public consultation. (See Appendix 1)</div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: l1 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -18.0pt;">

</span></span></span>Moreover, by submitting a single Environmental
Impact Assessment (EIA) application for Yuanli, Tongsiao and Jhunan townships,
InfraVest created the illusion off a much larger area for the wind farms, and
were able to exceed the 10 percent land usage limit. By doing so, it also
avoided having to address the three townships’ specific and unique
environmental requirements. After receiving conditional EIA approval, InfraVest
submitted a Difference of Environmental Impact (DEI) evaluation and requested
that five wind turbine sites be shifted to Yuanli, bringing the total there to
14, which is well above the 10 percent limit.</div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">

<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: l1 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -18.0pt;">

</span></span></span>Facing the opposition from local residents,
InfraVest has stepped up security by deploying private security on site at all
times, where they trail and prevent visitors and residents from accessing the
beach and embankment, taking law into their own hands. They have also responded
to peaceful demonstration with violence, manufacturing fight scene confusion
which led to the police arresting protesters. Peaceful protesters have been
physically violated as a result.</div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="mso-list: l1 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -18.0pt;">

</span></span></span>InfraVest has also sued the Yuanli Self-Help Organization,
claiming 10 million NTD in reparation, citing local residents as obstructing
construction.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Responding to these uncivilized commercial means of
InfraVest Wind Power Co., Taiwan's wind power monopoly (See Appendix 2). The
Yuanli Self-Help Organization makes three demands of InfraVest and the related
governmental departments, and that only when following demands are met, can the
development of renewable energy be truly sustainable in regards to Taiwan's
democracy, human rights, and the environment:</div>

</span></span></span>InfraVest immediately suspends construction of
all wind turbines and to re-negotiate with the residents of Yuanli, and provide
in-depth explanations of known and potential impacts of such a dense wind
turbine cluster. It is InfraVest’s responsibility to address the local
residents’ concerns, and not to force construction by sacrificing the safety
and well-being of local residents.</div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left: 38.25pt; mso-add-space: auto;">

</span></span></span>Since the environmental-impact assessment is
illegal (See Appendix 1), the Environmental Protection Administration must
require InfraVest to perform a reassessment, and prevent InfraVest from
continuing construction before the reassessment has been approved.</div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left: 38.25pt; mso-add-space: auto;">
<br /></div>

</span></span></span>The Ministry of Economic Affairs must create
clear regulations as to the safe distance of wind turbines in order to maintain
public safety. Before the regulations in place, InfraVest must immediately stop
construction, ensuring the safety of the residents of Yuanli.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This is not a NIMBY protest. This action is to oppose an
international business monopoly that is trying to dictate to a group of
innocent farmers in rural Asia (See Appendix 4). Because renewable energy in
the EU is regulated with democratic procedures and proper environment
assessment, it is shame to see that a German company resorting to such illegal
and underhanded tactics in order to plunder natural resources outside of
Europe. We ask the EU wind energy community to condemn this company.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>

<span lang="zh-TW"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">The no. 53 turbine by
plan is Yuan-Gung village. However, from the follwing eveidence (pic.1), we see
how InfraVest cheated on our people: at 11th, 14th of July, 2012, the DEI
public investigation of Yuan-Gung village’s no.53 turbine was done in Xi-Ping
village, which is another village has nothing to do with the planned site
Yuan-Gung village. This is the first eveidence that InfraVest suspected fake
data. Secondly, residents in Xi-Ping village who signed this investigation
prooved that they weren’t informed about the potential environmental impact of
the setting of turbine, neither image of the turbine, actual place of the
turbine. Moreover, from the picture we saw that the handwritings of signiture
and content in the investigation are obviously different. This indicate to the
fact that the residents were only asked to sign the name, the rest of question
are asked by the crew of InfraVest and written by those crews. On the other
hand, the real stakeholder-- residents of
Yuan-Gung village were informed about this construction work until
September, 2012, in when the construction works are all about to start. These
all pointed out that InfraVest manipulated the DEI investigation, cheated on
the local residents. Due to this bad record, InfraVest did not pass the
Environmental assessment for the next wind farm they planned to invest in
another coast. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

In September 2012, residents of Yuanli Township launched protests against a <a href="http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/feat/archives/2013/06/17/2003564971/1" style="color: #00548f; font-family: inherit; letter-spacing: inherit; list-style-type: disc; text-decoration: none;">wind turbine construction project by InfraVest</a>, a German wind power company, after learning that the firm intended to build 14 wind turbines along the coastline. Residents who formed the Yuanli Self-Help Group are concerned about the density and close proximity of turbines to their homes; and scientific reports indicating there could be a correlation between increased health problems and depression and long-term exposure to the low-frequency noise generated. Residents also alleged that private security officers hired by the company used violence against protesters on 8 June 2013.</div>

The mission of <b><i>Yuanli Self-Help Organization against Wind
Turbines</i></b> is to protect the development of renewable energy in Taiwan.
We are against nuclear energy, as well as any energy development construction that
sacrifices rural residents’ right to their chosen livelihood. In recent years, we have seen InfraVest Wind
Power Co., who enjoys a monopoly on wind power in Taiwan, randomly constructing
large wind turbines along the west coast of Taiwan without proper consultation
with local communities. In our hometown
of Yuanli Township, InfraVest Wind Power Co. is forcefully pushing through its
construction agenda while damaging the environment and threatening the local
residents and protestors with law suits. We hereby demand that InfraVest stops
construction immediately, and we propose the following appeals to the company
and related governmental agencies. Only when these demands are met can the
development of renewable energy in Taiwan be sustainable and friendly to people
and the environment.<br />

more than one hundred meters high with a rotating speed of 160km/h at the tail

any public briefings or meetings with residents of Yuanli while the living environment
in Yuanli was severely affected by InfraVest’s construction of wind turbines. The majority of local residents knew nothing
of the construction, which government thought was only minor construction when
the machines and tools arrived in their village. After realizing the situation, more than half
of the residents stood up and opposed the construction. In spite of this,

InfraVest clearly stated that they intended “to keep a long distance between
the construction of wind turbines and any buildings. The space between north-south bound turbines should
be 350 meters, and the east-west 210 meters”. In reality, the company did not
keep its promise in the report and most of the turbines have a much shorter
interval space. One engineering expert
has expressed his concern that the insufficient distance will cause negative
effects to the environment and even damage people’s lives and property.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

in Taiwan; however, we are against the inappropriate construction of wind
turbines that are too close to residential areas. This construction not only disregards
people’s safety and health but also destroys the coastal environment. In
addition, we are firmly opposed to vicious measures and tricks played by
InfraVest Wind Power Co., a German company, to intentionally ignore local
voices and to coerce protestors throughout the process. Furthermore, we are deeply concerned that the
behavior of InfraVest has seriously undermined and damaged the future and

local residents in</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"> Yuanli were suddenly invited by InfraVest to
attend an orientation about their construction plans. It was the first time that local residents realized
there would be several large wind turbines as tall as 120 meters built near
their houses. In order to understand the
impact caused by the development project, the residents did some field research
in other towns with wind farms, such as </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: DFMing-Md-HK-BF; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;">Houlong and</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"> </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: DFMing-Md-HK-BF; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;">Dajia, and talked
to the people living nearby the turbines.
From the visit,</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"> they realized that these people are
suffering from several disturbing symptoms. Certain people have insomnia because of the constant
noise, and some must rely on medication so they can sleep. Some residents
suffer from depression since the noises made by wind turbines cause them severe
mental stress.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

built near their houses, the peaceful living environment in this coastal
village will be completely destroyed. Hence, the local residents decided to get
together and formed the Yuanli Self-Help Organization against Wind Turbines and
started a difficult journey of protest. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

of Energy in Taipei and held several sit-in protests and even a hunger strike,
which resulted in several people getting hospitalized. Still, government
officials did not respond to the people’s request at all. On the site in
Yuanli, where construction was ongoing, the residents’ non-violent protests
were met with force and threats from police and private security. Dozens of protestors were even beaten by
police batons and arrested in handcuffs.

Thus the long-term goal already set at the founding of the company was not just to concentrate on the German market, but to expand beyond the German borders. Since then, the activities have rapidly spread to our European neighbors as well as to other continents, so that today the Group has a large, internationally promising portfolio of numerous wind projects in different stages of development.</span><br />
