Key Takeaways
01 Overview
Fight against climate change
Guarantee energy independence
Cheapest source of energy
Safeguard a fair energetic transition through solar PV distributed generation sources
| Renewables push | |
|---|---|
| Emergency Measures |
Long-term energy prices remain high as current measures only affect the short term |
| DG push | |
| Price uncertainty | Drives demand for renewable energy / energy independence and increases demand for PPAs |
| Permitting is the bottleneck, including access to Grid connection |
Reinforces the value-added of early-stage development capabilities and the potential of DG as the differentiating strategy to overcome licencing and grid connection restrictions |
| EBITDA1 of the quarter totalled 22.0 €m in line with the 1st quarter of 2022, supported by the Utility-Scale sector which compensated the lower results of the Biomass segment |
|
|---|---|
| Strong liquidity position, with more than 800 €m in available funds, guaranteeing an efficient execution of the business plan, and average cost of debt remained below 4% |
|
| EBITDA from Biomass decreased 41% versus 1Q22, mostly driven by lower electricity prices in the UK, but also impacted by higher structure costs in Portugal, that better support the execution of the business plan and ensures the sustainability of the operations |
|
| EBITDA of 8.2 €m, a significant improvement from 1Q22, mostly driven by sales of energy from 119 MW operating assets, mark-to-market changes in Poland and fair value gains in the United States |
|
| Revenues increased by 131% versus the 1Q22, driven by the acceleration of installations, totalling 16.0 MWp in 1Q23 which amounts to 40% of the installed capacity in 2022. The speed of the business will continue to improve in 2023, in order to reach positive EBITDA during 2023 |
Results were mostly driven by Utility-Scale operating assets positive performance but impacted by lower electricity prices in the UK
DG activities continued to accelerate during the quarter with installed capacity more than duplicating versus 1Q22

Comparing with the 1st quarter of 2022
1 EBITDA excluding non-recurring transaction costs; 2 Net Income attributable to Greenvolt; 3 From Biomass and Utility-Scale operating assets; 4 Probability-weighted pipeline capacity of the Wind and Solar Utility-Scale business unit;
Revenues increased by 11.1€m versus 1Q22, mostly driven by a c.130% acceleration in DG sales and the contribution from operating assets in utility-scale. The lower electricity price in the United Kingdom hurt sales
EBITDA remained in line with the 1Q22, mostly supported by a positive contribution from Utility Scale, through operating assets, PPAs mark-to-market appreciation in Poland and fair value gains in the United States.
Greenvolt is currently implementing multiple initiatives in the DG segment to further accelerate its installation capacity, expecting EBITDA contribution to be positive during 2023
Biomass & Structure business unit is composed of 6 biomass plants in two geographies (Portugal and UK) and holding structure
The operational performance of TGP was lower than in 1Q22 mainly due to short periods of downtime, which are expected before a significant stoppage as the one scheduled for 2Q23. This is partially offset by the improvement in Portuguese power plant's operations.

04 Key Takeaways
| The beginning of 2023 witnessed a decrease in short-term electricity prices across Europe, but long-term prospects continue above the levels of 2021. Inflationary pressures have also started to ease but interest rates are expected to continue elevated in the short term. |
|---|
| In 1Q23 Greenvolt presented solid results, with a recurring EBITDA of 22.0 €m and attributable net income of 0.3 €m (-74%), based upon: Biomass positive results, but below the 1Q22, due to the lower electricity prices in the UK and structure costs; Utility scale performance of operating assets, via energy sales, mark-to-market related to PPAs in Poland and the fair value assessment of Actualize, a company in the United States now consolidated by Greenvolt; Distributed Generation revenues increase of 131% driven by higher installations of 16.0 MW, 40% of the total installed during 2022; Financial position continues strong with available liquidity of more than 800 €m, and limited exposure to increasing interest rates, with an average cost of debt of 3.9% and 78% of current debt being at fixed rate. |
| ✓ Biomass – Improve the operational performance of plants; ✓ Utility Scale – Expected sales of at least 200 MW and continued development and value enhancement of pipeline; ✓ Distributed Generation – Acceleration of operations in order to reach a positive EBITDA during 2023; |
