Objective:

of renewable energy by 2030
(compared with 2014)
Ambition:reach
carbon neutrality
by 2050
165,000employees mobilised in 2019 to share their take on the meaning
they give to our action, which was used as
the foundation to build EDF's purpose:
90%of electricity the EDF group generated in
2019 was carbon-free thanks to nuclearpower
and hydropower
“Without any fuss, our teams have demonstrated engagement, responsibility and a sense of solidarity to maintain continuity in a service that is essential for our country. I would like to thank them and congratulate them. EDF’s employees and service providers have been exemplary in demonstrating their drive to carry out their public service duty and manifest their commitment to the public interest. To supply the electricity the people of France need, especially the country’s health services, transport sector and business in general, we overhauled our organisation swiftly and successfully.
And when we come out of the crisis, EDF is ready to meet the needs of everyone – individuals, tradespeople and businesses – to help restart the French economy. Above all else, I strongly believe we will move towards a more community-focused, fairer world. We will change the way we think about our needs, our priorities and what really matters. Our understanding about the meaning of prosperity and progress will change, we will behave differently. We will listen more, working hand in hand.
This shift will put public services, ours in particular, back at the heart of our society. At EDF, we are ready to help shape this new model, which will allow for greater prominence for those who don’t hold all the cards. I also believe that after the pandemic, society will demand greater efforts in the fight against climate change and the extinction of biodiversity. For the energy we will need, in a more energy-efficient society, electricity is the solution.”
Jean-Bernard Lévy, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Responding to the expectations of our customers through innovation and proximity – that is what EDF is striving to do in an increasingly competitive industry. The Group is committed to understanding customer needs, providing them with tailored solutions, simplifying their day-to-day lives and supporting them on their journey to carbon neutrality. To do so, it has further expanded its range of solutions and services to improve the long-term energy performance of all its customers.
Stepping up solar self-sufficiency Boosted by the Mon Soleil & Moi® and Notre Soleil & Nous® packages, solar installations are rising significantly. Highly appreciated by retail and business customers in France looking to generate and consume their own green energy, the panels can be installed on roofs or carports. With 20% market share of the residential market held by the EDF subsidiary ENR, the Group is the leading provider of solar self-sufficiency solutions in France with over 10,000 installations carried out for retail customers, including over 5,000 installed in 2019, and around 100 for industrial and tertiary customers.
Supporting our customers during the Covid-19 crisis Faced with this unprecedented health and economic crisis, EDF immediately stepped up. For retail customers, the Group has also suspended cutting off all energy supplies, reducing power or applying late payment penalties until 1 September 2020. Nearly 3,000 advisors and over 200 community advisors have continued to assist social workers. The SMEs eligible for the Solidarity Response Fund set up by the French government have been able to delay bill payments. In addition, EDF has begun processing invoices more quickly for its SME suppliers. Furthermore, the 1,200 technicians of our subsidiary Dalkia have been working hard to ensure healthcare establishments remain in proper working order.
A new market in low-carbon hydrogen95% of hydrogen is still produced from fossil fuels. By setting up its subsidiary Hynamics, specialised in producing and distributing low-carbon hydrogen through electrolysis of water, EDF is providing a new low-carbon solution to two carbon-intensive sectors – industry (refineries, glassworks, agri-food and chemicals), which currently represents the primary user of hydrogen, and heavy-duty mobility, which uses hydrogen as an alternative to fuel oil and diesel. Hynamics works with local authorities in Dijon (France) to power its refuse collection and utility vehicles.
An increasingly comprehensive service platform with IZI by EDFLaunched one year ago, the digital IZI by EDF platform makes life easier for retail and business customers in France by offering and guaranteeing the services of EDF-partnered tradespeople. It provides a wide range of local services, including energy renovation (isolation and heating), odd jobs, procurement and installation of equipment (solar panels, charging stations for electric vehicles and heat pumps). These turnkey solutions are designed to encourage carbon-free lifestyles and are carried out by EDF group subsidiaries and their selected partners.

Faster growth in energy services Dalkia and its specialised subsidiaries continue to grow, supporting businesses and local authorities as they undergo their energy transition. As the leading operators of heat networks, with 350 in France, Dalkia signed and extended several contracts in 2019, including with Toulouse Métropole, Albertville and Le Havre. The business is also expanding into new geographic regions with the acquisition of Breathe, an energy services specialist based in the UK, to bolster the capacity of Dalkia and EDF Energy subsidiary Imtech to enable its customers to reach carbon neutrality, which is essential to combating climate change.
Electricity to suit all lifestyles: Mes Jours ZenEDF strives to adapt its offers to suit the different lifestyles of its customers and their consumption habits by providing a 30% reduction in the price per kilowatt/hour on the weekend, bank holidays and a chosen day during the week. Named Mes Jours Zen (My zen days), it supplements EDF’s regulated tariffs and the range of electricity contracts available, including Vert Électrique, Vert Électrique Week-end, Vert Électrique Auto and Digiwatt. All our offers give access to the EDF&Moi app so customers can monitor and control their consumption to save up to 12%(1) on their bill. (1) Customers in off-peak hours connect two or three times per month to the online consumption monitoring solution and adapt their behaviour accordingly. Source: EDF.
The first long-term renewable energy contractsCorporate Power Purchase Agreements (CPPAs) intend to safeguard the supply of green energy to businesses while guaranteeing financial visibility for wind and solar farms in France. This innovative kind of contract encourages the development of renewable energy and certifies to customers they are being supplied with green energy generated in France, which differs from standard Guarantees of Origin (GOs). In 2019, increasing numbers of businesses are considering their environmental impact, such as Metro France, Société Générale, MaïsAdour and FEDA signed up to Agregio, the EDF group aggregator.

DREEV promoting economical and participative electromobility The smart charging feature developed by DREEV, a joint venture set up between EDF and the California-based start-up NUVVE, enables electric vehicles to store unused wind or solar energy in their batteries to recharge the electricity system. Its solutions already equip the fleets of several business customers, who are remunerated for the electricity generated that is reinjected into the network. The idea is to widely apply this innovation as it helps in equal measure to balance the electricity system and develop renewable energy.

In France, the Multi-year Energy Programme (PPE), published in April 2020, confirms that electricity generated from low-carbon sources will represent the main channel for bringing about carbon neutrality by 2050. Because in France, 97% of electricity is already carbon-free thanks to nuclear power and renewable energy, EDF plays a major role in achieving this target and stepping up the pace of developing renewable energy while maintaining the same high level of safety, performance and competitiveness of the existing nuclear fleet and Nuclear New Build. EDF will make the ambition of very low-carbon generation a reality by consolidating its hydropower and nuclear plants as well as continuing to develop renewable energy (with a target of doubling installed power across its renewable and hydropower plants from 28 GW in 2014 to 50 GW in 2030) and Nuclear New Build.
€4.3 bn invested in 2019 for nuclear maintenance, primarily in the Grand Carénage programme.
x2 wind and solar capacity under construction, i.e. 4.4 GW.
#1 producer of renewable energy in France and Europe and No. 5 globally (in terms of installed capacity).
557.6 TWh of 90% carbon-free electricity generated, emitting 55 g of CO2/kWh: the carbon intensity of the EDF group is five times lower than the European electricity industry average.

Major projects in offshore wind power EDF reached a number of significant milestones on the way to achieving its ambitions for offshore wind. In France, the Group is spearheading efforts in the industry, having won four tenders out of seven, including farms off the coast of Saint-Nazaire and Dunkirk, representing a little over 2 GW under development or construction. In Scotland, the project to build the 450 MW Neart na Gaoithe (NnG) farm has begun, and we have a number of promising new developments elsewhere around the world – potentially 2 GW in the US, 500 MW in China and 1 GW in Ireland.
Commissioning France’s second largest hydropower projectAt the hydropower plant in La Coche (Savoie), the new pumped storage plant (PSP) increased its total power by 20% (240 MW), so the facility now generates enough electricity to supply 270,000 people every year. The investment of €150 million underlines the Group’s drive to develop the 5% of hydropower sources not yet exploited in France. Hydropower is the most widely used source of renewable energy throughout the world, generating electricity that is available at any time.
Gradually reducing CO2The EDF group strongly believes that, in order to reach carbon neutrality, it is essential to reduce all emissions, including those of its customers. That is why it decided in early 2020 to sign the “Business Ambition for 1.5 °C” campaign alongside 200 other businesses throughout the world. It also set out an updated road map as to the way in which carbon neutrality will be achieved by 2050 as well as stretching targets concerning the reduction of its direct and indirect CO2 emissions to earn “Science Based Targets Initiative” (SBTI) certification.
Expanding onshore wind powerIn 2019, onshore wind power was significantly expanded, with twice as many projects under way throughout the world compared with 2018, including in particular 300 MW of projects won in India and 400 MW in the Middle East, over 1 GW in construction in the US and around 200 MW commissioned in France.

Storage Plan ready to go It is essential to invent new ways of storing electricity in order to expand the use of renewable energy and operate micro-networks in isolated areas with no network access. The Storage Plan launched in March 2018 seeks to develop 10 GW of new storage potential throughout the world by 2035. In 2019, EDF built or secured nearly 0.5 GW of new storage capacity, mobilising a blend of technological solutions alongside production assets, including thermal storage (in Morocco) and li-ion batteries (in Guadeloupe and the US). An essential component of innovation, research has led to the development of the first demonstrations of zinc-air batteries and will step up as more resources are made available (including new testing laboratories and €16.9 million of investment in start-ups). EDF has also bolstered its competitive edge by acquiring a UK-based battery storage project developer (Pivot Power with a potential portfolio of 2 GW capacity) and a business specialising in electric vehicle charging systems in the US (PowerFlex).
97% of investment in low-carbon resources In order to bolster its position as a champion of low-carbon growth, the EDF group is ramping up the development of renewable energy and continuing to invest in nuclear power and its networks. Investment in resources that are already carbon-free or facilitate the integration of more renewable energy accounted for €13.5 billion in 2019, representing approximately 97% of the Group’s net investment (excluding divestment programmes).
Launching the Excell PlanAnnounced in late 2019, the Excell Plan seeks to achieve the highest level of safety, quality and excellence in nuclear power, to allow this carbon-neutral source of energy to continue to fully assume its role in the fight against climate change. Rolled out in 2020, it is built around three areas – raising industrial quality, enhancing skills and improving the governance of major nuclear projects.
Successful launch of the Solar PlanUnveiled in late 2017, the Solar Plan positioned EDF as the leading provider of photovoltaic power in France, targeting the development of approximately 1 GW per year on average between 2020 and 2028 to reach 30% of market share by 2035. The preparatory phase is drawing to a close, having built a solid foundation to develop future ground-mounted solar power plants. The Group has secured 2,000 hectares of land and planning permission at end-2019 to install 500 MWp of facilities, in addition to the Luxel group’s near 1 GWp of projects waiting to be developed, acquired in early 2019.

Unlocking the potential of biomass in Côte d’IvoireBiomass is the largest source of renewable energy in sub-Saharan Africa. In Côte d’Ivoire, EDF and its partners (Meridiam and Biokola) will design, finance, build and operate the largest biomass plant in west Africa from 2023. It will be powered using agricultural waste from the 12,000 local farmers and will meet the electricity needs of the equivalent of 1.7 million people. Throughout the 25-year concession contract, the plant will reduce CO2 emissions by 4.5 million tonnes.
Exporting expertise in hydroelectric power EDF has been entrusted with the contract to design, build and operate one of Europe’s largest hydroelectric fleets in the last seventy years, enabling many customers outside France to benefit from its technical and environmental expertise. In Dubai, the Group provides project management assistance to the project owner of the first pumped-storage hydroelectricity (PSH). After having conducted the study phase, EDF is now overseeing the project’s construction. In Israel, the country’s first PSP (300 MW) is currently being finalised under a similar type of contract.
First hydroelectric facility in BrazilAfter five years under construction, EDF has commissioned its largest hydropower plant outside France in the last ten years. The Sinop dam operates in a 337 km2 dam in the Brazilian state of Mato Grosso. This facility uses two 200 MW hydroelectric generators and now produces enough electricity to supply 1.6 million homes. It is operated by EDF and the long-term future of its electricity sales is guaranteed through 30-year Corporate Power Purchase Agreements.
Throughout four continents, EDF exports its expertise in nuclear energy, renewable energy and energy services. While bolstering its position in the UK, Italy and Belgium, the Group realises targeted investments outside Europe focusing primarily on low-carbon generation, storage and engineering service projects. The Group notched up a number of major successes in hydroelectric power in 2019. By 2030, EDF is looking to triple its business outside France.

of transformation
Because the energy industry and ways of working are changing at remarkable speed, EDF must completely overhaul
the way it operates if the Group is to achieve the strategic objectives set out
in its CAP 2030 plan. Digital technology helps to empower employees,
making it pivotal to the transformation of the entire company and its procedures.

Collective intelligence to orient the company’s strategy and action Over the last two years, the “Parlons Énergies” initiative (Let’s talk about Energy) has distinguished itself as a powerful tool to harness the collective intelligence of EDF employees and drive the Group forward on all fronts. As a large-scale forum for internal dialogue and consultation that makes it possible to organise, compile and relate employees’ thoughts, “Parlons Énergies” represents a remarkable pool for ideas, innovation and ambitions to inform the Executive Committee regarding the implementation of the Group’s strategy. It also helps to ramp up the pace of its transformation. After employees identified 20 challenges in 2018, over 700 of them are currently working in Group start-ups to develop tangible solutions to respond to a considerable range of issues including EDF’s proximity with regions, organisational agility and electric mobility. In 2019, “Parlons Énergies” has enabled employees to take part in defining the Group’s purpose and implementing the French Multi-year Energy Programme.1 online suggestions platform.60 dialogue sessions throughout France in 2019.Over 4,000 suggestions to define EDF’s purpose.
Working differently to unleash energyFor the Group to achieve the ambitions set out in the CAP 2030 plan, it has to be able to rely on the involvement and creativity of each and every one of its employees. That is why it is reconsidering traditional hierarchical models. EDF conducts numerous initiatives to modernise its managerial practices and simplify its structure to enhance agility and efficiency. In 2019, the Group has involved all its entities in a widescale change process to promote and extend empowerment. Over 500 teams have already adopted new ways of working, notching up initial successes in health and safety and performance.
Harnessing intrapreneurship to ramp up innovationInnovations that are already on the market or currently being developed, such as the IZI by EDF services platform, the Metroscope software to identify industrial performance losses and the LotuSun pivoting floats that increase the efficiency of solar power plants on water and snow, were championed by EDF employees and supported through the EDF Pulse Croissance incubator. Recognised at the EDF annual Pulse Awards, these projects designed by employees reinforce the Group’s competitive edge, sometimes open new business and create value for customers. Through its open innovation Labs and joint development efforts with start-ups outside the Group, the intrapreneurship programme gives considerable momentum to build the company of tomorrow with the employees of today. 30 participative innovation hubs in the Group.
Digital technology to facilitate the transformationDigital technology is helping to reinvent EDF’s relationship with its customers, its solutions and industrial generation activities, in addition to strengthening the Group’s technological expertise and skills as well as simplifying its ways of working. Over the last year, employees in the Greater Paris area have been able to choose to work from the EDF site closest to where they live instead of working from home or their standard place of work. The Group’s digital transformation has been considered as part of an integrated strategy fuelled by annual discussions as part of Project Y, a group of 30 employees under the age of 35 tasked by the Executive Committee to bring about change. Their ideas as to how to improve the employee experience, set out in 2019, are being implemented, in particular regarding changes to work spaces and less energy intensive digital uses. An in-house academy focused on the new professions emerging as a result of digital technology was also set up. The data collected through EDF’s various activities represent a crucially important strategic asset. Over the last two years, the Data Analytics Factory has been extracting the value from the data collected by generating electricity, which has helped to make significant strides forwards in terms of performance, especially to optimise and anticipate maintenance work. Building on this success, EDF launched a second factory in 2019 to extract value from data collected through its various Group-wide activities (such as purchasing, IT, property and HR).

TO SUCCEED,EDF is transforming
itself and its employees
COV I D -19
Widespread reorganisation and mobilisation In its effort to remain operational and community minded during the Covid-19 crisis, the EDF group has been entirely focused on maintaining public service continuity, ensuring the safety of energy installations and, of course, protecting the health of its employees and service providers. At the end of January, at the start of the epidemic in China, EDF activated a crisis unit in Paris to coordinate the deployment of strict hygiene measures (implementation of protective measures and putting a stop to face-to-face meetings and business travel) and put in place a health watch. A group of experts is working on potential scenarios regarding the way in which this unprecedented situation may evolve over time.
As an operator of essential services, EDF already has a pandemic response plan in place and, on 2 March, it entered “crisis mode”, meaning all employees wherever possible started to work from home and operations at generating facilities were reduced to the strict minimum, with rotas put in place between teams to minimise contact between people.
When the French government imposed general lockdown measures, the Group reorganised its operations in just a few days, while maintaining constant dialogue with unions and employee representatives. Working from home, over 80,000 employees, including 3,000 customer service advisors, have maintained contact with retail customers, businesses and local authorities to implement the support strategies put in place. In the field, EDF’s technicians have kept essential energy equipment in proper working order to safeguard operations for our customers. Never before has the notion of public service meant so much than during these challenging times.
