Completes Acquisition of 660 MW Power Plant in the Philippines</font></b></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Manila,
Philippines, April&nbsp;16, 2008&nbsp;&nbsp;&#151; The AES Corporation (NYSE:AES)
today announced it has completed the $930 million purchase and transfer of
assets of the 660 MW (gross) Masinloc coal-fired thermal power plant located in
Barangay Bula, Zambales Province, Luzon, Philippines.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#147;This
acquisition is a key component of our strategy to invest in areas where there
is a significant need for new capacity and offers AES an excellent entry point
into the growing Philippine economy through one of the lowest cost thermal
plants in the system,&#148; said Paul Hanrahan, AES President and Chief Executive
Officer.&#160; &#147;This is a particularly
attractive investment because the existing facility has the infrastructure in
place to allow AES to add an additional 600 MW of generation capacity.&#160; As AES has done through similar acquisitions
in other parts of the world, we expect to improve the overall efficiency and
output of the existing plant, providing more reliable energy to the Philippine
market.&#148;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">AES
and its eight percent minority partner International Finance Corporation (IFC)
paid 100 percent of the purchase price upfront to complete the Masinloc
transaction in one step.&#160; Including
transaction costs and completion of a planned upgrade program to improve
environmental and operational performance, the total project cost is estimated
at $1,057 million.&#160; The transaction
funding included $635 million in secured non-recourse financing comprised of a
$240 million, 18-year facility from IFC, a $200 million, 15-year facility from
Asian Development Bank, and a $195 million, 10-year facility from a consortium
of banks including ING Bank, Security Bank, Bank of Philippine Islands and
Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation.&#160; In
addition, over $30 million of unsecured working capital facility commitments
have been obtained from three local banks.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#147;The
impressive local and international group of commercial and multilateral lenders
reflects not only the strong fundamentals of the project but also demonstrates
the strength of the project finance market in Asia,&#148; said Mark Woodruff,
Executive Vice President and President of AES&#146;s Asia and Middle East region.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Approximately
60 percent of the electricity generated at the Masinloc plant will be sold to electric

supply contracts of various tenors in place at the plant turnover.&#160; The remaining capacity will be sold through
the wholesale power pool or under new contracts.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">AES
provided the winning bid for the Masinloc facility in a privatization auction
conducted by the Power Sector Assets and Liabilities Management Corporation
(PSALM).&nbsp; Originally constructed in 1998, the plant utilizes coal from a
variety of sources in the Pacific Rim. Through this acquisition, AES now
operates the Philippines&#146; first privatized thermal plant.</font></p>
