ANNOUNCEMENTS BY THE FRENCH PRESIDENT ON 10 FEBRUARY 2022 IN BELFORT
  • Support for the French nuclear sector:
    • Launch of a programme to build 6 EPR2 reactors and studies for potentially 8 more.
    • Continuing operation for all reactors, except for safety issues.
    • Development of the French SMR programs, including €500  million for NUWARDTM.
  • Acceleration of renewable energy development.
  • Confirmation of the growing role of low-carbon electricity in France’s climate ambitions, in a context of energy consumption reduction.
WAR IN UKRAINE
  • Increased market prices and volatility: extreme tensions on the electricity market in a context of lower nuclear output in 2022, requiring significant purchases on the market.
  • Supply chain disruptions and inflation of component and commodity prices caused delays for some activities and major projects.
  • Limited impact on supplies: one single Edison gas contract with a European subsidiary of a Russian company (accounting for 4% of the Group’s supply, terminated end-2022) and low dependence on uranium imports from Russia, given current stock levels and diversified long-term (20-year) supply contracts.
  • International sanctions: to date, no exposure to Russian companies, banks or individuals affected by international sanctions. Closure of the Moscow office.

(1) In millions of customers, counted by point of delivery. One customer may have two points of delivery. For France (DCO, ÉS and the island activities). With a negative impact in EBITDA in 2022 due to a higher number of new customers at regulated tariff, leading to purchases of volumes on the market at very high prices.

(2) On volumes sold for delivery in 2023.

(3) SRF: solid recovered fuel that cannot be recycled locally.

(4) Emissions avoided annually thanks to sales of new innovative products and services for the G4 scope. The initial target at 15Mt CO2 concerned the scope of EDF and Dalkia.

(5) These 2026 and 2030 Group targets also apply to the proportions of female employees and executives.

(6) Percentage decrease vs Q4 2021, corrected for climate effects.
