18.4 Unused Credit lines

In 2019, EDF signed 3 renewable credit lines, each one for €300 million, respectivelywith BBVA, the Crédit Agricole group and Société Générale CIB.

These three credit facilities incorporate an adjustment mechanism that links their cost to three of the Group’s sustainability KPIs: direct CO2 emissions, use of online consumption monitoring tools by its French residential customers (as a proxy forEDF’s success in getting French residential customers actively engaged with their energy consumption), and electrification of its light vehicle fleet.

On 30 October 2020 EDF and Standard Chartered Bank signed a €200 million renewable credit facility. The cost of this facility will be indexed on three EDF group sustainability KPIs: EDF’s direct CO2 emissions, electrification of its light vehicle fleet, and use of online consumption monitoring tools by its French residential customers(see note 20.3.2).

At 31 December 2020, the Group has unused credit lines with various banks totalling€11,110 million (€10,490 million at 31 December 2019), including €5,650 million of credit lines indexed on ESG criteria.

18.5 Fair value of financial instruments
Accounting principles and methods

Financial instruments are stated at fair value, which corresponds to the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction on the principal or most advantageous market at the measurement date. The valuation methods for each level are generally as follows:

  • level 1 (unadjusted quoted prices): prices accessible to the entity at the measurement date on active markets, for identical assets or liabilities;
  • level 2 (observable data): data concerning the asset or liability, other than the market prices included in initial level 1 input, which are directly observable (such as a price) or indirectly observable (i.e. deduced from observable prices);
  • level 3 (non-observable data): data that are not observable on a market,including observable data that have been significantly adjusted.

The distribution of financial assets and liabilities in the balance sheet by level is as follows.
