Luc Rémont, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of EDF, commented: “The 2022 results were significantly affected by the decline in our electricity output, and also by exceptional regulatory measures introduced in France in difficult market conditions. Despite all the challenges, EDF actively focused on service and support for all its residential and business customers, and made every endeavour to ensure the best generation fleet availability for the winter period. All the Group’s employees deserve praise for their dedication and great resilience in a difficult environment. 2022 also confirmed the new impetus for nuclear in France, and accelerated expansion for renewable energies. The French President, during its speech of Belfort announced a clear, coherent energy plan and the EDF group’s strategy is part of it. Our priority right now is improving EDF’s financial position, and I am confident that the benefits of the actions taken will begin to show in 2023.”

Despite a significant increase in sales supported by electricity and gas prices, EBITDA was down significantly in 2022. In France, this decrease is essentially explained by the decline in nuclear output linked to the phenomenon of stress corrosion, by the impact of the exceptional regulatory measures to limit price increases for consumers in 2022, and to a lesser extent, by the drop in hydropower output. These developments obliged the Group to purchase electricity at a time when market prices were very high. However, EBITDA benefited from an exceptional performance of EDF Trading in a highly volatile market environment, and better nuclear output in the United Kingdom.

Operational performance

Nuclear power output in France totalled 279TWh in 2022, 81.7TWh less than in 2021. The decrease is explained by a lower nuclear fleet availability, mainly attributable to inspections and repairs of reactor circuits after signs of stress corrosion were detected, despite the lower number of unplanned outages, an optimised generation schedule, and a great commitment from the teams in charge of inspections and repairs at the reactors affected by stress corrosion.

Hydropower output in France stood at 32.4TWh ⁽¹⁾, down by 9.4TWh from 2021 due to record low hydropower conditions.

In the United Kingdom, nuclear output amounted to 43.6TWh, a year-on-year increase of 1.9TWh despite the shutdowns of Hunterston B in January and Hinkley Point B in August, thanks to good fleet availability and a lighter maintenance programme than in 2021.

The Group produced 24.6TWh of (non-hydro) renewable energies, up by 3.7TWh from 2021. The increase is explained by the new renewable capacity commissioned in 2022 (3.6GW gross). At end-2022, the Group had 13.2GW of net installed renewable capacity, 7.1GW under construction and a project portfolio totalling 85GW gross.

In Italy, net installed wind and solar power capacity rose to 601MW ⁽²⁾ by end-2022.

In Belgium, there was further expansion in wind power activities, reaching a net installed capacity of 620MW ⁽³⁾ by the 2022 year-end.

Carbon intensity for 2022 was 50gCO₂/kWh. The increase was limited to 2gCO₂/kWh from 2021 despite the lower nuclear and hydro output.

Net income

The financial result for 2022 was an expense of €3.6 billion, a decrease of €3.9 billion from 2021 with several contributing factors:

• a €6.5 billion decline in other financial income and expenses, principally due to the lower performance of the dedicated asset portfolio, reflecting developments on the financial markets in 2022 and 2021;

• a €2.8 billion decrease in discount expenses, principally owing to the 50bp rise in the real discount rate applied for nuclear provisions, after a 10bp rate reduction in 2021;

• a €0.3 billion increase in the cost of gross financial debt, in an environment of increasing interest rates and rising financial debt.
  
  

Excluding non-recurring items, particularly the change in fair value of the dedicated asset portfolio, the financial result was -€0.2 billion, an increase of €2.2 billion.

Net income excluding non-recurring items stood at -€12.7 billion, down by €17.4 billion. This mainly reflects the drop in EBITDA, which was partially limited by the higher financial result (excluding non-recurring items), and by a corporate income tax receivable.

Net income – Group share amounted to -€17.9 billion for 2022, down by €23 billion. In addition to
the significant decrease in net income excluding non-recurring items, this change includes the following factors after tax:

• a -€4.4 billion change in the fair value of financial instruments,

• -€0.7 billion of impairment.

Cash flow and net financial debt

2022 Group cash flow amounted to -€24.6 billion, down significantly from the -€1.5 billion of 2021. The explanation is essentially the cash EBITDA of -€12.8 billion, which was principally affected by the drop in nuclear power output in France. Working capital improved by €8.3 billion in 2022: this favourable development is mainly attributable to the optimisation/trading activity and the CSPE mechanism. Furthermore, net investments totalled €16.4 billion in 2022.

Cash flow from operations ⁽⁴⁾ amounted to -€21.5 billion, down by €21.3 billion compared 2021.

Net financial debt ⁽⁵⁾ reached €64.5 billion. The €21.5 billion increase is mainly explained by the cash flow from operations, the issue and the redemption of hybrid bonds which had a total impact of -€1 billion, and the €3.15 billion capital increase.

Main Group results by segment

France – Generation and supply activities

(in millions of euros)	2021	2022	Organic change
Sales (6)	33,182	48,686	46.7%
EBITDA	7,394	-23,144	n.a

The significant rise in sales is essentially explained by the rise in prices, reflected in the increase in regulated sales tariffs to final customers from 1 February 2022, higher sale prices to business clients, an increase in the resale value of electricity subject to purchase obligations and progression in sales by aggregators and gas sales. Sales also increased as a result of the additional volumes made available under the ARENH scheme at the price of €46.2/MWh, set by the decree of 11 March 2022 detailing the regulatory measures to limit price rises in 2022.

In contrast, the drop in nuclear power output, which essentially related to inspections and repairs for stress corrosion, had an estimated impact of -€29.1 billion in EBITDA ⁽⁷⁾ because it made purchases necessary at a time of high market prices.

Also, the French government’s exceptional regulatory measures to limit the increase in sales prices to consumers in 2022 had an adverse estimated effect of -€8.2 billion in EBITDA ⁽⁸⁾. Before these measures, EBITDA benefited from market price rises passed on to customers for an estimated amount of €8.7 billion ⁽⁹⁾.

Hydropower output was lower due to very poor hydropower conditions, bringing EBITDA down by around €2.5 billion.

Finally, the impact in EBITDA of customers returning to EDF for regulated-tariff contracts was negative because the corresponding volumes had to be purchased on the market at high prices.

France – Regulated activities ⁽¹⁰⁾

(in millions of euros)	2021	2022	Organic change
Sales (1)	17,564	18,082	2.9%
EBITDA	5,992	6,723	12.2%

The increase in EBITDA is mainly explained by the retrocession of interconnection fees granted by RTE, amounting to an estimated €1.7 billion ⁽¹¹⁾. Changes in the TURPE tariffs also had a favourable effect, estimated at €0.5 billion ⁽¹²⁾.

Nonetheless, the rise in EBITDA was limited by an unfavourable price effect on purchases to cover network losses (an estimated €1 billion) and a 19.1TWh decrease in power volumes distributed (estimated at €0.4 billion).

Renewable energies

EDF Renewables

(in millions of euros)	2021	2022	Organic change
Sales (13)	1,767	2,158	17.5%
EBITDA	815	909	5.8%
including EBITDA production	877	1,246	36.7%

EBITDA growth was mainly driven by the 21% rise in renewables output. In 2021 there was an extreme cold snap in Texas, with an estimated impact in EBITDA of -€95 million, which had no equivalent in 2022.

EBITDA was penalised by the rise in development expenses associated with growth in the project portfolio, and due to inflation.

Group Renewables excluding hydropower in France

(in millions of euros)	2021	2022	Organic change
Sales (1)	2,848	3,647	24.4%
EBITDA	1,279	1,191	-12.0%
Net investments	-1,351	-1,894	40.2%

Better wind and solar power output in all countries in a high-price context limited the decline in EBITDA, which was affected by lower hydro generation in Italy due to low water levels.

Net investments were substantially higher and reflected the accelerated development of renewable energy in the Group’s main markets. This increase largely due to acquisition of the New York Bight offshore wind power concession in the United States, greater expansion in North America and Brazil, and excess costs recorded on the NnG project in the United Kingdom. The lower level of disposals also contributed to growth in capacities owned by the Group.

Energy Services

Dalkia

(in millions of euros)	2021	2022	Organic change
Sales (14)	5,196	6,663	28.2%
EBITDA	378	333	-14.3%

The decrease in EBITDA is principally explained by gas price caps for cogeneration plants subject to purchase obligations, and early discontinuation of these technologies due to a timing change in the winter tariff.

Group Energy Services ⁽¹⁵⁾

(in millions of euros)	2021	2022	Organic change
Sales (1)	6,796	8,578	28.0%
EBITDA	441	440	-16.3%
Net investments	-447	-572	28.0%

The decline in EBITDA reflects the downturn in Dalkia’s cogeneration business despite growth in service sales in
France, Belgium and Italy.

The rise in investments mainly concerned Edison and Dalkia which purchased Spie UK at the end of the year.

Framatome

(in millions of euros)	2021	2022	Organic change
Sales (16)	3,362	4,122	16.8%
EBITDA (17)	584	589	-1.9%
Contribution to EDF group EBITDA	310	328	0.3%

Framatome’s “Installed Base” business unit saw sustained growth in North America, but fuel sales were down in the United States.

Order intake amounted to approximately €3.7 billion at end-2022, a slight improvement from 2021 driven particularly by the Fuel and Installed Base business units in North America.

United Kingdom

(in millions of euros)	2021	2022	Organic change
Sales (1)	10,114	16,098	61.3%
EBITDA	-21	1,325	n.a

EBITDA was up thanks to higher nuclear output, leading to additional volume sales in a high-price environment whereas 2021 generation levels had made purchases necessary at high prices.

Supply activities were affected by energy price rises being partially passed on to residential customers, despite substantial raises of the tariff cap. The commercial and industrial customer segment essentially benefited from portfolio growth.

Operating expenses were down in 2022, notably due to the changes in the employee pension scheme decided in 2021.

Italy

(in millions of euros)	2021	2022	Organic change
Sales (18)	11,212	29,302	160.1%
EBITDA	1,046	1,115	4.3%

EBITDA in the electricity generation activities were up, boosted by the good availability of CCGT (combined cycle gas turbines) and high market prices, and the introduction of Italy’s capacity market. However, renewables output was down, essentially due to low water levels.

The gas business benefited from higher sales volumes, especially on the wholesale markets. A gain on the disposal of Infrastrutture Distribuzione Gas was booked in 2021, with no equivalent in 2022.

Supply activities were affected by electricity and gas price rises that were not fully passed on to residential customers.

Other international

(in millions of euros)	2021	2022	Organic change
Sales (1)	3,353	5,659	57.7%
EBITDA	267	336	14.6%
Including: - Belgium	125	118	-7.2%
- Brazil	143	225	39.9%

EBITDA was down in Belgium ⁽¹⁹⁾, essentially as a result of lower nuclear output, purchases at very high prices, and the three-yearly review of nuclear provisions. Service activities are growing, and supply activities are stable.

EBITDA was up in Brazil, thanks to the 16% raise in November 2021 and the 5% raise in November 2022 to the price of the Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) attached to EDF’s Norte Fluminense plant, plus a favourable EUR-BRL forex effect.

Other activities

(in millions of euros)	2021	2022	Organic change
Sales (20)	3,905	19,724	n.a
EBITDA	1,824	7,089	n.a
Including: - gas activities	426	606	42.3%
- EDF Trading	1,200	6,407	n.a

EBITDA for the gas activities benefited from reviews of long-term contracts (with no cash effect) given the increase in medium and long-term US-Europe spreads. Sales volumes also rose significantly, as more use was made of the Dunkirk methane terminal in a context of very high wholesale prices.

EDF Trading’s EBITDA was improved by a good business performance in a period of very high volatility across all commodity markets.
