At 31 December 2020 loans and financial receivables mainly include:

  • amounts representing reimbursements receivable from the NLF and the British government for coverage of long-term nuclear obligations, totalling€13,034 million at 31 December 2020 (€13,303 million at 31 December 2019),discounted at the same rate as the provisions they finance (see note 15.2);
  • the receivable corresponding to the accumulated shortfall in the Contribution to the Public Electricity Service (CSPE) at 31 December 2017 and the costs of bearing that shortfall. In 2020, reimbursements of principal and interest amounted to€660 million and €30 million, in line with the schedule published in the ministerial orders of 13 May 2016 and 2 December 2016, made in application ofArticle R. 121-31 of the French Energy Code. At 31 December 2020, EDF’s financial receivable was fully repaid by the State (see note 5.4.1). This CSPE receivable was allocated in its entirety to dedicated assets;
  • other loans and financial receivables notably include:
  • the overfunding of EDF Energy’s EEGSG and BEGG pension schemes by€1,725 million, compared to €1,246 million at 31 December 2019 (see note 16.1.1),
  • an amount of €263 million representing the advance payments made by Luminus to Synatom to cover long-term nuclear obligations (€230 million at 31 December 2019). In Luminus’ financial statements these amounts are discounted at the same rate as the provisions they fund (see note 15.3). This receivable is equal to the fair value of the amounts held by Synatom on behalf of Luminus as fund assets;
  • loans made by EDF Renewables in the course of its project development activity, mainly in connection with wind farms in France and North America, amounting to€382 million at 31 December 2020 compared to €559 millionat 31 December 2019.
