Turnover in 2024 from Energy Sales totals 359.4 million euros, up +20% compared with 2023 (+25% at constant exchange rates). The average EUR/BRL rate for 2024 is 5.83 (6.16 for the second half), compared with 5.40 for 2023.

Production in 2024 reaches 4.7 TWh, up +9%, from 4.3 TWh in 2023 which corresponds to the electricity consumption of the equivalent of 5.4 million people.

The increase in production reflects the growth of the capacity in operation, which rises by +6% since 2023, from 2,370 MW to 2,514 MW. At the end of 2024, total capacity (in operation and under construction) is distributed geographically as follows: 51% in Latin America, 38% in Europe and 11% in the rest of the world. Solar capacity represents 71% of the total, wind capacity 26% and other technologies 3%.

Turnover for the fourth quarter of 2024 from Energy Sales amounts to 93.2 million euros, up +12% compared with the fourth quarter of 2023, recording a fifth consecutive quarter of double-digit growth, despite the curtailment event in Brazil in the second half of the year.

Analysis by country:

• In Brazil, production is up +2%. The cumulative contribution of a better level of resources in the second half of the year, as well as new power plants such as SSM3-6 and Canudos, drives production growth and more than offset the disposal of power plants in 2023. In line with forecasts, the grid operator gradually reduced the level of curtailment during the fourth quarter of 2024;
• In France, production is down -37%. Power plants commissioned in 2024, did not compensate the lower wind and solar resources level and the impact of plants sold (33 MW)² in 2023;
• In other countries, production is up sharply, at +58%, with the base effect of new power plants operating at full capacity during the quarter, notably in Portugal and Albania;
• Helexia's production also continues to grow rapidly (x2.8), thanks to its solar roofs, solar carport and photovoltaic sheds in Europe (France, Portugal, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Hungary, Romania) and Brazil.

SERVICES

Turnover in 2024 from Services for third-party clients (after eliminations) comes to 187.2 million euros, down
-4% at current and constant exchange rates, while Services for own account (eliminated on consolidation) are down - 43% compared with 2023.

• Development, Construction and Equipment Procurement segment to third-party clients is down by -7% to 160.5 million euros. This decrease reflects the year-on-year increase in third-party construction business, which only partially offset the decrease in Equipment Procurement activity, impacted by lower solar panel prices. This segment's internal business is also down -45% compared with 2023;
• The Operation and Maintenance segment for third-party customers grows by +16% to 26.7 million euros, boosted by the signing of new contracts in the United Kingdom and Brazil, taking the capacity operated on behalf of third-party customers to 6.5 GW, up +41% compared with 2023. In parallel, internal activity grows by +13%.

Turnover for the fourth quarter of 2024 from Services for third-party clients totals 74.0 million euros, down
-14% at current and constant exchange rates.

Analysis by segment shows growth in the Operation and Maintenance segment:

• The Development, Construction and Equipment Procurement segment posts a 66.8 million euros turnover, down -16% at current and constant exchange rates, reflecting annual growth in third-party construction activity, which only partially offset the decrease in Equipment Procurement activity;
• The Operation and Maintenance segment records a 7.2 million euros turnover for third-party clients, up +10%, marking nine quarters of uninterrupted growth for this segment.
