Building the electricity system of tomorrow

EDF is rolling out “Ambitions 2035”, a strategic plan for the company’s development, performance and transformation with 4 pillars: helping customers to reduce their carbon footprint, producing more low-carbon electricity, expanding the networks to address the challenges of the energy transition, and developing flexibility solutions to meet electricity system requirements.

To seize the opportunities offered by the energy transition, EDF is investing in skills for tomorrow and plans a large-scale recruitment drive over the next 10 years - starting with nearly 20,000 new hires in France in 2024 including 9,500 work-study trainees and interns, promoting a good gender balance and diversity and bringing young people into the workforce.
Meanwhile, the EDF foundation has defined its new mission for the next 5 years to support the ecological and social transition, with a focus on education, training, and environmentally responsible citizenship.

 

 

Helping customers to reduce their carbon footprint:

  • Success of commercial offers in the new commercial policy: letters of intent representing more than 10TWh a year have already been signed with industrial partners (2) and nearly 2,200 contracts with 4 and 5-year horizons have been signed with firms of all sizes, covering close to 13TWh for 2028 and 7TWh for 2029.
  • Residential customer portfolio growth in the G4 countries (3): up by 370,000 customers.
  • Decarbonising uses: 12% increase in the number of electric vehicle charging points installed or managed. Dalkia has developed the first very high temperature heat pump for industrial clients, with 1,000 tonnes a year lower CO2 emissions (installed in the Wepa Greenfield paper plant).
  • Self-consumption: 73% increase in solar panels on rooftops and car park canopies installed by EDF ENR’s B2B activity.
 

 

 

Producing more low-carbon electricity:

  • Electricity output constantly available on demand was up by 12% to 259TWh. With its 94% carbon-free electricity output, EDF has one of the lowest carbon intensities in the world at 29 gCO2/kWh (and 3 gCO2/kWh in mainland France), 27% lower than in the first-half 2023.
  • In France, the 19.4TWh increase in nuclear power output to 177.4TWh reflects a good operational performance, whereas the first half of 2023 was affected by stress corrosion repairs and social movements. 2024 has seen better-controlled outages, resulting in higher fleet availability.
  • Estimated nuclear power output in France is expected to be in the upper end of the 315-345TWh range for 2024 and is confirmed in the 335-365TWh range for 2025 and 2026 (4).
  • The 9.9TWh increase in hydropower output (5) to 31.1TWh is explained by high availability and better hydrological conditions.
  • The 13.1% increase in wind and solar power output to 15.5TWh is largely due to new installed capacities which brought the total to 24.8GW gross (including ~500 MW for the Fécamp offshore wind farm). The portfolio of wind and solar projects also grew by 13% to 111GW gross (including the contract won for the Hydrom project in Oman (4.5GW and 2.5GW of storage)).
  • EDF has signed €5.8bn of green bank loans dedicated to financing the lifetime extension of existing French nuclear reactors, and successfully issued a €3bn multi-tranche green bond (to fund nuclear, renewables and network activities).
 

  • EDF is mobilised for success in its nuclear projects:
    • Flamanville 3: fuel loading was completed in May 2024; reactor divergence is imminent and connection to the French grid is expected a few weeks afterwards.
    • New nuclear projects in the United Kingdom:
      • Hinkley Point C: the first 3 steam generators have been delivered.
      • Sizewell C: the Office for Nuclear Regulation has granted the Nuclear Site Licence required to continue the project. Framatome has signed contracts with Sizewell C for the nuclear heat production systems, the instrumentation and control system and fuel supply.
    • EPR 2: a new milestone was reached: the maturity of the design was validated with the support of a committee of experts from industry and government departments. Also, all environmental authorisations needed to install the 2 reactors at the Penly site have been issued.
    • Nuward SMR: the project has moved to a design based on proven technological building blocks.
    • Arabelle Solutions: acquisition of GE Steam Power’s nuclear activities for nuclear plant conventional islands, including turbine generator sets (6).
 

 

 

Expanding the networks to address the challenges of the energy transition:

  • The networks are contributing to the energy transition: connections of renewable energy facilities by Enedis (7) were up by 33%.
  • Investments by Enedis, EDF SEI (Island Energy Systems) and Electricité de Strasbourg increased by 9%, essentially due to the higher number of connections and the energy transition.
  • For a larger, more reliable power supply between Sardinia, Corsica and Tuscany, replacement of the electrical connection has begun.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Developing flexibility solutions to meet electricity system requirements, via:

  • Decarbonisation of flexible thermal plants:
    • Tests of 2 combustion turbines running on sustainable HVO bioliquid (8) rather than fuel oil at Vaires-sur-Marne in France conclusively show that flexible, dispatchable generation can be made carbon-free.
    • The project of liquid biomass power plant Ricanto (130MW in Corsica), to replace the Vazzio thermal plant has received administrative clearance.
  • A 35% increase in the number of smart electric vehicle charging stations managed.
  • Growth in B2C load-shedding contracts (+68% of customers).
 

 

At its meeting of 25 July 2024, chaired by Luc Rémont, EDF’s Board of Directors approved the consolidated financial statements at 30 June 2024. Luc Rémont, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of EDF, said: “The rise in our operational and financial results in the first half of 2024 reflects the hard work put in by all EDF’s teams to bring us back to high production levels. It also confirms our ability to supply competitive low carbon electricity on demand, so that consumers can feel fully confident about making the move to electrified uses.
Against a backdrop of a rapid and sustained fall in market prices, EDF is rolling out its new “Ambitions 2035” plan to attain the levels of performance and investment needed for the electric revolution.”

Key financial results:

  • EBITDA

(in millions of euros) H1 2023 H1 2024 Organic change
France - Generation and supply 8,641 10,311 +19.3%
France - Regulated activities 1,176 2,822 +140.0%
EDF Renewables 433 574 +32.6%
Dalkia 220 230 +5.0%
Industry and Services (1) 110 101 -5.5%
United Kingdom 2,266 1,989 -15.2%
Italy 828 993 +21.5%
Other international 508 455 -10.8%
Other activities 1,924 1,213 -37.0%
Group total 16,106 18,688 +15.7%

The almost €2.6 billion increase in EBITDA to €18.7 billion is explained by a good operational performance, leading to an increase in nuclear and hydropower output in France, despite a rapid market price downturn has already begun. Services and renewables activities in the rest of Europe also contributed to this rise in EBITDA.

In the second half of the year, the declining market prices will result in a significantly lower H2 EBITDA in 2024 than in 2023.

  • Financial result

The financial result is an expense of €13 million, a clear €1.5 billion improvement compared to the first half of 2023, driven by:

  • a good performance by the dedicated asset portfolio, which achieved a return of 5.5% (as in first-half 2023) thanks to favourable developments on the financial markets, particularly the equity markets, contributing to a €1 billion improvement in other financial income and expenses (limited impact on cash);
  • a €0.7 billion decrease in the cost of unwinding the discount, principally relating to the 0.10% increase in the real discount rate applied for nuclear provisions in France in 2024 whereas the rate was stable in the first half of 2023 (no cash impact);
  • a €0.2 billion increase in the cost of gross financial debt, moderated by active management of debt in a context of rising interest rates (cash impact of -€0.3 billion).

The financial result excluding non-recurring items, particularly the change in fair value of the dedicated asset portfolio, is -€1.7 billion, up by €1.3 billion.

  • Net income

Net income excluding non-recurring items amounts to €8.4 billion. The €2.1 billion increase primarily reflects the significant growth in EBITDA, less the tax expense.

The Group’s net income is €7.0 billion, up by nearly €1.2 billion year on year. Apart from the substantial increase in net income excluding non-recurring items, the principal items after tax contributing to this increase are:

  • the new forecast cost estimate for spent fuel storage in France: €2.4 billion,
  • the change in fair value of financial instruments: €0.4 billion,
  • a provision relating to renegotiation of an amendment to the processing and recycling agreement with Orano: -€0.8 billion in 2023, no equivalent in 2024.

    • Cash flow

Group cash flow for the first half of 2024 amounts to €1.9 billion vs. -€1.6 billion in H1 2023. This is explained by a cash EBITDA of €17.6 billion, generated by a good operational performance despite falling market prices.
Working capital rose by €0.7 billion, comprising:

  • €3.8 billion resulting essentially from the higher CSPE receivable, as lower market prices led to higher support for renewable energy producers,
  • -€3.8 billion due to the effect of the price downturn on trade receivables in France,
  • the neutral impact of the optimisation/trading activity.

This cash flow funded net investments of €11.1 billion, €1.9 billion more than in first-half 2023 due notably to new nuclear projects including Hinkley Point C, network development and reinforcement and nuclear fleet maintenance. The acquisition of the nuclear activities of GE Steam Power (Arabelle Solutions) and Assystem’s 5% stake in Framatome also had a €0.9 billion effect on the rise in investments.

  • Net financial debt (2)

Net financial debt stands at €54.2 billion, stable compared to end-2023. The favourable impact of the positive cash flow was almost fully absorbed by the announcement that the hybrid bond issued in October 2018 for a nominal amount of €1.25 billion would be redeemed and its equity content replaced by the capital increase resulting from the conversion of the Oceane bonds in 2023 (3).
The bond issues during the first half of 2024, totalling around €5.5 billion, the lower level of short-term debt, and early repayments of bank loans lengthened the maturity of the Group’s financial debt to 12.1 years at end-June 2024 (vs. 11 years at end-2023), and made it possible to control financing costs in a time of rising interest rates.

Segment sales are presented before elimination of inter-segment operations.

  • France - Generation and supply 

(in millions of euros) H1 2023 H1 2024 Organic change
Sales 34,622 26,244 -24.2%
EBITDA 8,641 10,311 +19.3%

The increase in EBITDA is explained by higher output of nuclear power and hydropower, which had a favourable effect estimated at €1.5 billion and €0.8 billion respectively.
The decline in sale prices had an estimated impact of -€8.1 billion. This effect is largely explained by the change in the average forward market prices in the past 2 years: €178/MWh in 2024 vs. €218/MWh in 2023, and in the ARENH cropping price: €102/MWh in 2024 vs. €410/MWh in 2023.
Falling market prices affecting net purchases in a context of higher nuclear output had a positive effect estimated at €7.8 billion; this effect should be very limited in the second half of the year.

  • France - Regulated activities (4)

 

(in millions of euros)
H1 2023 H1 2024 Organic change
Sales 9,978 10,467 +4.9%
EBITDA 1,176 2,822 +140.0%
Including Enedis 763 2,311 +203%

The increase in EBITDA is principally explained by a positive price effect estimated at €1.9 billion, caused by purchases to cover network losses made at lower market prices than in 2023 (€1.3 billion) and changes in the TURPE network access tariff (5) (€0.5 billion).

The 0.6TWh decline in volumes distributed excluding weather effects had a limited impact on EBITDA.

  • EDF Renewables - Renewable Energies

Group Renewables excluding hydropower in France

(in millions of euros) H1 2023 H1 2024 Organic change
Sales 1,705 2,142 +7.3%
EBITDA 763 1,066 +31.6%

Contribution by EDF Renewables

(in millions of euros) H1 2023 H1 2024 Organic change
Sales 985 1,020 +3.4%
EBITDA 433 574 +32.6%
Including EBITDA for generation 593 627 +5.7%

The increase in EBITDA for Group Renewables is attributable to a 13.1% increase in wind and solar power output thanks to new installed capacities that brought total net capacity to 15.3GW at 30 June 2024. In Italy and Belgium, hydropower output also rose substantially due to better hydrological conditions.

At EDF Renewables, EBITDA for generation progressed due to 9.7% growth in volume output following the commissioning of new plants, despite less favourable wind and sunshine conditions in France, and a downturn in prices. The rise in EBITDA is also explained by portfolio rotation, notably involving sales of plants in the United States and Brazil.

  • Dalkia - Energy Services

Group Energy Services (6)

(in millions of euros) H1 2023 H1 2024 Organic change
Sales 4,506 4,044 -8.2%
EBITDA 291 307 +4.8%

Contribution by Dalkia

(in millions of euros) H1 2023 H1 2024 Organic change
Sales 3,411 2,943 -12.6%
EBITDA 220 230 +5.0%

The service activities of Dalkia and IZI Confort in France contributed to the increase in EBITDA for Group Energy Services.

At Dalkia, the rise in EBITDA is attributable to the business performance, particularly in energy efficiency services and decarbonisation in France. However, sales of electricity from cogeneration plants were down compared to the first half of 2023.

  • Industry and Services (7)

(in millions of euros) H1 2023 H1 2024 Organic change
Sales 1,959 2,191 +10.1%
EBITDA (Framatome) 307 326 +7.2%
Contribution (Framatome) to EDF group EBITDA 110 101 -5.5%

New nuclear projects in France and the United Kingdom explain the increase in EBITDA.

Order intake amounts to approximately €15.2 billion at 30 June 2024, well above end-2023, largely due to new nuclear projects in France and the United Kingdom, particularly the Sizewell C project.

Together with TechnicAtome, Framatome acquired Vanatome (Daher Valves) which specialises in the design, production and qualification of a wide range of valves for the nuclear and defence sectors.

  • United Kingdom

(in millions of euros) H1 2023 H1 2024 Organic change
Sales 12,140 9,048 -28.1%
EBITDA 2,266 1,989 -15.2%

The decrease in EBITDA is explained in particular by lower margins in the domestic and small business customer segments, as the first half of 2023 benefited from an exceptional recovery of some of the costs incurred during the energy crisis.
Operational performance was strong for the generation business, with a limited -0.1TWh downturn in nuclear power output to 18.1TWh despite unplanned outages at Heysham 1 and Hartlepool. The impact of these outages was largely offset by optimisation of scheduled outages and higher realised nuclear prices.

  • Italy 

(in millions of euros) H1 2023 H1 2024 Organic change
Sales 9,543 7,168 -24.8%
EBITDA 828 993 +21.5%

The increase in EBITDA in the electricity generation business was driven by the growth in renewables activities, especially a rise in hydropower thanks to exceptionally good hydrological conditions.

The gas business has benefited from good optimisation performances on the portfolio of long-term gas contracts.

In the sales activities, customer portfolio growth explains the improvement in EBITDA.

Wind and solar power capacities totalled 669MW net (8) at 30 June 2024.

  • Other international

(in millions of euros) H1 2023 H1 2024 Organic change
Sales 3,099 2,307 -26.0%
EBITDA 508 455 -10.8%
Including: - Belgium 408 352 -14.2%
- Brazil 107 104 -2.8%

The lower EBITDA in Belgium (9) is essentially explained by falling prices, despite better nuclear power output (+11%), after a year 2023 affected by the Chooz power plant shutdown, and higher hydropower output (+32%). Also, cost increases for nuclear waste were reinvoiced in 2023, and this had no equivalent in 2024.

Wind power capacities totalled 635MW net (10) at 30 June 2024.

In Brazil, EBITDA was down slightly due to the -4% indexed adjustment to the Power Purchase Agreement attached to EDF’s Norte Fluminense plant in November 2023, despite an increase in revenues from system services.

  • Other activities

(in millions of euros) H1 2023 H1 2024 Organic
change
Sales 4,655 2,730 -41.4%
EBITDA 1,924 1,213 -37.0%
Including: - gas activities 7 278 x38.7
- EDF Trading 1,866 885 -52.6%

The increase in EBITDA for the gas activities is explained by improved margins on the Group’s assets in gas storage activities and sale of gas, despite the lower level of business at the Dunkirk terminal.

EDF Trading’s EBITDA decreased in a context of falling prices and volatility on the wholesale markets.
