Generation plant margin contribution

In the energy generation business, A2A has a diversified plant portfolio, which guarantees stable margins (about 500 million euros of average margin contribution between 2013 and 2021), and a low risk profile thanks to a portfolio diversified in terms of technology, earnings model (regulated vs market) and geography.

Contribution margin A2A generation plants | €M

The bar chart shows the evolution of the margin of contribution of A2A’s generation plants in millions of euros from 2013 to 2021, focusing on the specific components: hydroelectric, thermo-electric, wind, solar and green certificates. The differentiated composition of the margin of contribution ensures a stable annual average of the margin over the years.

RES production and the sale of energy

The development of renewable plants, a key element within the Strategic Plan, is safeguarded by control of the entire value chain in BU Energy. For the duration of the Plan, the broad retail customer base is, in fact, able to guarantee the purchase and the coverage of all the renewable energy produced. The objective, for 2030, is to reach 9 TWh of electrical energy produced from RES, with coverage of over 100% by the residential market.

RES production and energy sale | TWh

The graph referring to RES production and energy sales shows the TWh produced and sold between 2022F and 2030 with the relative percentage of annual coverage. 2022 F: 3TWh produced, 5TWh sold 2026: 5TWh produced, 8TWh sold 2030: 9TWh produced, 10TWh sold

Closure of the waste cycle

As regards the Waste business unit, control of the entire value chain in the waste cycle makes it possible to reduce risks, with the aim of being able to internally manage and treat, in 2030, 85% of the two million tonnes of waste collected in 2030.

Closure of waste cycle | Mt

The graph referring to the closure of the waste cycle shows the Mt of waste collected and of waste collected and treated internally in 2021 and in 2030 2021: 1.9Mt waste collected, 1.2Mt waste collected and treated internally (62% of the total collected) 2030: 2Mt waste collected, 1.7Mt waste collected and treated internally (85% of the total collected)

Progetti già realizzati e in corso di realizzazione

In terms of the capacity to develop infrastructures and implement investments, A2A can feel strongly placed, with over 80% of the projects planned for completion by 2026 already concluded or underway.
The Group can also count on potential upsides relative to the investments covered by the Plan, which can serve both as back-up for initiatives and as accelerators should the right conditions arise, in the form of further developments enabled through partnerships.
