ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF “TERNA ENERGY SOCIETE ANONYME INDUSTRIAL COMMERCIAL AND TECHNICAL COMPANY” ON CONSOLIDATED AND SEPARATE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR FINANCIAL YEAR 2021 Dear Shareholders, In compliance with provisions of Law 4548/2018 as well as Law 3556/2007 Article 4 par. 2(c), 6,7 & 8 and the decisions issued by the Hellenic Capital Market Commission under No. 8/754/14.4.2016 Article 2 and the Company’s Articles of Association, we are hereby submitting the annual management report of the Board of Directors for the financial year from 01/01/2021 to 31/12/2021. The present report discloses financial and non-financial reporting for FY 2021 of TERNA ENERGY Group, as well as the most significant events occurred (before and after the financial statements reporting date). It also describes the key risks and uncertainties which the Group might face in 2022 and presents significant transactions between the Company and its related parties. A. Financial Developments and Performance of FY 2021 Following the initial shock of the pandemic and the emergency measures taken by the authorities, the Greek economy is recovering dynamically after the lifting of restrictions and the resumption of economic activity, a trend that is also being aided by fiscal and monetary policy measures. In 2021 the economic climate index increased to 105.4 points and essentially returned to 2019 levels. The data announced by ELSTAT (Greece’s Statistical Service) on the course of economic activity in the fourth quarter of 2021 form an especially strong basis for what it will follow in the next year, 2022. In particular, the high GDP growth rate in the last quarter of the year (7.7% on an annual basis), combined with the downward revision for the previous two quarters, led to a strong growth estimate for the year 2022, at the order of 1.6 %. For the entire year of 2021, the growth rate settled at 8.3% and as a result the real GDP is approaching now pre- pandemic levels. However, this momentum - which would support estimates for economic growth of about 5% in year 2022 - is expected to calm down to some extent following the impact of Russia’s invasion to Ukraine. An important component in the continuation of the domestic economy’s growth trend in 2022, is expected to come from the contribution of EU’s Recovery and Resilience Facility. It is estimated that in the coming years (and up until 2026), this facility will contribute over € 30.0 billion in total, through grants and loans on favorable terms, thus shoring up the Greek banks as well as the Greek economy and its competitiveness in general, given that the largest percentage of funds is expected to be absorbed in the areas of green investments, digital transition and social cohesion. On 19/01/2022 the Greek government proceeded with the first bond issuance of that particular year. With the issuance of the 10-year bond, Greek authorities raised € 3.0 billion with a coupon rate of 1.75% and a yield of 1.836%, while the issue coverage was more than 5 times. On 14/01/2022, international credit rating agency Fitch kept the country's rating unchanged at "BB" upgrading the outlook to positive. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 5 Recent geopolitical developments in the region of Ukraine are expected to prolong inflationary pressures through a stronger and longer rise in energy and raw material prices, while in combination with any further disruptions in the supply chain are expected to lead to a tightening of the monetary policy that will in turn affect consumption, investment, credit expansion and the wider economic activity. The main factors of uncertainty regarding the course of domestic economic activity in 2022 can be summarized as follows: Firstly, relates to the impact of rising energy prices on production costs, profitability and investment planning. Secondly, there is the effect of inflation pressures coming from energy and grain prices, in combination with the energy dependence of Greece, and their relation to the real disposable income and the purchasing power of Greek households. Thirdly, the impact on the receipts of Greek tourism, due to, on the one hand, the cessation of tourist flows from the countries involved in the above war conflicts and, on the other hand, the aggravation of the disposable income in many countries which the incoming tourists originate from, mainly European ones. Fourthly, the impact of geopolitical developments on foreign direct investment, as increased uncertainty adversely affects the country’s risk especially in the case of Greece whose credit rating has not yet reached the level of investment grade. Fifthly, the further expansion and potential extent of fiscal flexibility that will be allowed at European level and the degree of utilization of the EU resources by the Greek government. Furthermore, it is worth mentioning that the Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) increased in February 2022 by 6.3%, compared to the same month of 2021, with most of the increase coming from the energy products. In addition, almost 40% of Greece's natural gas imports in 2020 originated from Russia. Therefore, the energy dependence of the country, in terms of covering the required quantity through imports remained quite high. The latter condition makes the impact of the war conflicts in the region of Ukraine an important factor of uncertainty when it comes to estimating the future trajectory of the Greek economy, as the higher energy prices are expected to affect both domestic companies, via the increased production costs leading to lower profits, and households, through the reduction of disposable income and consumer spending. The presentation by the European Union of a plan aiming at the gradual decoupling of European countries from Russian fossil fuels (REPowerEU), which includes the adoption of additional support measures to tackle to impact from rising energy costs, will be an important factor in mitigating these negative developments. Despite the prevailing uncertainty due to the above factors, the outlook of the Greek economy remains positive in the medium term, as conditions needed for a change in the pattern of economic growth are already in place, and this is expected to come to a greater extent from investment spending. The increase in investments, in the next period, will be determined by the course of the credit rating of Greek economy’s debt towards the investment grade, by the inflow of resources from EU’s Recovery and Resilience Facility, as well as by the implementation of structural reforms that create a friendly business environment. As early as 2021, investments in Greece increased significantly, by 19.6%, while they had the second largest contribution to GDP’s expansion (2.3 percentage points), next to private consumption (which achieved 5.5 percentage points). The good performance of exports of services and especially of tourist receipts, in 2021, resulted into the positive contribution of net exports to GDP growth of 0.9 percentage points. Finally, public TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 6 consumption increased by 3.7% in 2021, compared to 2020, contributing by 0.8 percentage points to GDP growth. In contrast, inventories (including any statistical adjustments) decreased significantly in year 2021, thus deducting 1.1 percentage points from GDP growth. The effects of recent sanctions on Russia's economy and the changing global economic landscape. The current geopolitical turmoil is expected to drastically change the dynamics of world trade, as the new conditions will have major effects not only on the Russian economy, but also on the rest of the world. Initially, the sanctions imposed on Russia are expected to lead to a recession in its economy. At the same time, the strong supply disruption, primarily in the energy sector but also in basic agricultural products (wheat, fertilizers, etc.) is expected to lead to lower rates of economic growth in large economies, compared to what it was initially estimated, due to strong inflationary pressures. TERNA ENERGY Group strongly committed to its development strategy and the realization of its vision, constantly improves and modernizes the structures and operating systems, selects with special care the executives personnel that is needed from the market, trains its staff in modern digital systems and in the obligation to comply with the provisions of the corporate governance system, the other provisions of the Internal Regulations, as well as the rules imposed by the competent bodies of the State for the relations of companies with their members of the Board. Also, reacting quickly and sensitively for the health and safety of its human resources, it took all the necessary measures, set up a special committee to deal with the coronavirus and ensured that ALL employees take full care of the current situation in terms of the COVID-19 and its mutations. The Committee systematically monitors the development of the pandemic, is immediately informed of any critical factors of its spread and guides the necessary actions to be taken by the Management and each employee throughout the Group in order to minimize the risks of the phenomenon and the impact on the course of the company. This policy and the nature of the activities of the Group, have protected the Group from the related risks and have allowed the Management to continue its development course, not directly affected by the spread of the virus. Keeping personnel on standby and limiting their communication with a few external partners, combined with the lack of contact with large groups of customers / consumers provide the Group with the opportunity to focus on its goals and not be directly and greatly influenced by evolution of the pandemic phenomenon. For these reasons, TERNA ENERGY Group continues to invest in the generation of energy through Renewable Sources (RES), fully focused on achieving its goal of exceeding 3,000 MW of installed capacity within the next 5 years. Despite the difficulties, the way seems to be open for the Group, since the preparations it has completed for a generation of new projects aimed at strengthening the green economy and environmental protection make it ready for immediate action and place it into a highly competitive position, allowing the Group to implement its business plan and further consolidate its leading position in the Greek market and its expansion in the international arena. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 7 It is through hard work, determination and business acumen that Management of TERNA ENERGΥ continues to invest in the RES segment at a high pace in order to establish a solid foundation of the company's sustainable development, which is the long-term goal of its next 10-year strategic plan. On 31/12/2021, TERNA ENERGY Group had over 1,300 MW in operation, under construction or ready for construction in Greece, Central and Eastern Europe. In particular, the total installed capacity of the Group in Greece and abroad amounts to 895.3 MW, while it also has RES facilities under construction or ready for construction of a total capacity of 406 MW in Greece. Furthermore, the Group develops additional projects of a total capacity of 2,049 MW in Greece, which will be ready for construction within the next period and will allow the achievement of the objective of 3,000 MW by 2025. It is worth mentioning that the Group promotes two (2) large pumping storage projects, as well as a significant number of photovoltaic parks in Greece, which could further strengthen the aforementioned objective.

B. Significant events in the year 2021 • New investments in the field of floating photovoltaic (FPV) parks On 19/01/2021, the Company announced that it expands its activities in the field of floating photovoltaic (FPV) parks. In this context, the company submitted to RAE (Greece’s Regulatory Authority for Energy) applications for the issuance of a producer certificate for (3) three floating photovoltaic (FPV) systems in an equal number of artificial reservoirs, the total capacity of which amounts to 265 MW. More specifically, the applications for the development of projects of this innovative clean energy production technology concern the installation of: -120 MW in the Artificial Reservoir of Kastraki -103 MW in the Artificial Reservoir of Pournari -42 MW in the Artificial Army Reservoir The total amount of investments for the development of the above three RES facilities will exceed 170 million Euro. It is worth noting that the installation of the three-floating photovoltaic (FPV) systems concerns locations outside “Natura” areas and provides for a coverage rate not exceeding 5.5%, in accordance with the International Sustainability Practices. The above investment of TERNA ENERGY Group is a new addition to the investment plan for the production and storage of clean energy that has already been announced by Management and concerns the development of wind farms as well as the implementation of energy storage projects in Greece via pumped storage. Therefore, the implementation of the three floating photovoltaic systems will increase the existing target for total installed capacity in the next five years to over 3 GW. • HERON E.NA: Energy Independence for all On 25/01/2021 HERON, in co-operation with TERNA ENERGY Group, presented to the Greek market “HERON EN.A”, a pioneering, innovative program through which consumers acquire energy independence, by significantly reducing, or even zeroing, the cost of their energy on an annual basis. EN.A is a product of the strategic cooperation of two leading companies in the field of energy: HERON, the first private company of the GEK TERNA Group that invested in the production and supply of thermal electricity in Greece, and TERNA ENERGY, one of the largest investors and producers in the field of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) in Greece and at the same time one of the largest Greek RES Groups internationally. Through this partnership, the energy from existing and future photovoltaic and wind farms in Greece, will be committed to the customers of HERON who will participate in the plan. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 10 • “Integrated Waste Management of the Region of Peloponnese” Initiation of the Construction Phase of PPP Project On 29/01/2021, The Public Private Sector Partnership (PPP) project “Integrated Waste Management of Peloponnese Region”, between the “Perivallontiki of Peloponnese”, subsidiary of TERNA ENERGY Group, and the Region of Peloponnese, commenced. The project is the largest PPP on waste management in the country and for the most part implements the Waste Management Regional Plan of the Peloponnese Region while also operating alongside local recycling programs of municipalities. The partnership agreement provides for the construction and operation of three (3) Waste Processing Units and an equal number of sanitary Landfill Sites for the process residue in the prefectures of Arcadia, Messinia and Lakonia, as well as of two (2) Waste Transfer Stations in Korinthia and Argolida.

The previous examination of the risks (before the occurrence of the natural phenomenon) was done with the contribution of the best market consultants without relevant indications regarding the risk of a corresponding event. At the same time, insurance coverage could not cover the event as such an event was not foreseen in the risk analysis of the insurance companies. The Management of the Group moved quickly from the first moments of Natural Phenomenon’s occurrence. These conditions, as presented in detail in Note 7.1 of the Financial Statements, created an energy deficit of approximately $ 30 million per day and ultimately amounted to $ 179.4 million. In particular, Hedge Providers under the relevant hedging agreements proceeded to pricing for "Liquidated Damages invoices", which cover the period from 13 to 19 February 2021. The total amount of these claims amounted to $ 179.4 million and is distributed as follows: Fluvanna 1 $32.7 million, Fluvanna 2 / Gopher Creek $ 69.6 million and Bearkat $ 77.1 TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 11 million. These invoices were challenged in writing by the Group on the basis of the occurrence of a force majeure event. Following the above, Fluvanna 1 and Fluvanna 2 / Gopher Greek’s Hedge Providers sent event of default notifications, and Bearkat I’s Hedge Provider sent potential event of default notification. Throughout the onset of the phenomenon, daily discussions with all stakeholders (Hedge Providers, Tax Equity Investors, Lender) and their legal advisors continued with increasing intensity, in order to minimize the adverse effects on the Group. While these discussions were ongoing, the Management considered the following three possible actions: (a) conservation of Wind Parks and recourse to the competent courts for the initiation of legal dispute with the Hedge Providers, over "Liquidated Damages invoices", (b) finding a mutually acceptable commercial solution to the dispute with Hedge Providers and (c) divesting from the three (3) US Wind Parks (Class B interests). According to what it is detailed referred in Note 7.1 of the Financial Statements, the Management chose as the most appropriate action the divestment, namely the loss of control of the sub-Group TERNA DEN LLC’s subsidiaries, which owns and operates the three (3) Wind Parks in Texas USA. As a consequence of all the above, and as a result of the continuous consultations and discussions with all the involved parties which started immediately after the occurrence of the Natural Phenomenon, the Management signed on 19/07/2021, with a date of entry into force of 30/06/2021, a Put & Call Option Agreement with the lending bank CI-II Fluvanna BK/S (hereinafter “CIP”) regarding the sale of Class B Interests held by the Group to the subsidiaries Sponsor Bearkat I Holdco LLC ("Sponsor Bearkat I"), Fluvanna Investments 2 LLC ("Gopher HoldCo") and Fluvanna 1 Investor Inc ("Fluvanna HoldCo") - hereinafter referred to as "the three (3) Wind Farms" or "Disposal Group of Assets". On July 23, 2021, TERNA ENERGY Group, through its above subsidiaries, exercised the put option that had been acquired through the above Put & Call Option Agreement, as it is analytically presented in Note 7.1.4. As a result of this exercise, the Contract for the Sale and Purchase of Class B Interests of the three (3) wind parks called as "Disposal Group of Assets" was signed on September 30, 2021. With the signing of this contract, the process of transferring the aforementioned interests (company shares) to CIP was completed. The de-consolidation of these subsidiaries ("Disposal Team") on 30/06/2021 led to the recognition of total accounting loss in a burden of the consolidated semi-annual financial results of € 94,04 million ($ 108,50 million). The obligations arising from all the above projects in the USA have no recourse either to the subsidiary TERNA ENERGY USA HOLDING CORP (parent company of TERNA DEN LLC) or nor to the senior parent company TERNA ENERGY SA. Therefore, given the loss of the above investments, in addition to the accounting loss that was recognized in burden of the consolidated financial statements for the first semester 2021, did not lead to the emergence of liquidity or financing issues for the Group and the Company for the following 12 months, as this event had no further impact on the cash flows of the Group and the Company. • Signing of the agreement for the project of electronic ticket of Thessaloniki On 25/02/2021, TERNA ENERGY signed the agreement for the project «Digital Transformation, Telematics and Unified Automatic Fare Collection System for the Transport Authority of Thessaloniki». Contractor of the project is the joint venture TERNA ENERGY (70%) – INDIGITAL (15%) – AMCO (15%).

DEPA Commercial, as project coordinator, in collaboration with Advent Technologies, Damco Energy (Copelouzos Group), PPC, DESFA, HELLENIC PETROLEUM, Motor Oil, Corinth Pipeworks, TAP and Terna Energy submitted to the Greek Government and the EU their investment proposal with total amount exceeding 8 billion Euro, for the development of an innovative integrated green hydrogen project in Greece which covers the entire hydrogen value chain. The core of the project is based on the gradual replacement of the lignite power plants of West Macedonia and the transition to clean energy having as final goal the de-carbonization of the country’s energy mix. The “White Dragon” project will use large-scale renewable electricity (GW) for the production of green hydrogen by TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 15 electrolysis in Western Macedonia. Hydrogen will then be stored directly (short-term hydrogen storage) and indirectly (streaming through DESFA’s natural gas pipeline) and, subsequently, through high temperature fuel cells will provide the country’s power grid with electricity as a fixed base load co-generation unit of green energy and heat. The generated heat, as a by-product of green electricity production, could initially have a complementary use to the district remote heating networks of West Macedonia, and in future in other applications that require heat and / or cooling (industries, data centers, greenhouses, etc.). Moreover, a main goal of the “White Dragon” project is the development, by the cooperating companies, of an integrated Hydrogen Industrial Research Center within the High Technology Hydrogen Node Research & Development & Innovation that will be created in West Macedonia. Particularly significant, finally, is the intended upgrade and capitalization of the existing energy infrastructure (electricity grids and natural gas pipelines). In particular, natural gas pipelines will be used for the transport of green hydrogen for other uses, as well as for its indirect storage. A necessary condition is the creation of a regulatory framework for Energy Net Metering as a transition option until the full development of the hydrogen economy. To accelerate growth in the framework of “White Dragon”, the National Natural Gas Transmission System will initially be prepared so that it can receive increasing rates of hydrogen, which will reduce the carbon footprint of the fuel and help initiate the hydrogen market. Moreover, the study and construction of an exclusive hydrogen backbone pipeline will be implemented in Greece, along with the first hydrogen projects in the transport sector (garbage trucks, trucks, trains, cars), with the appropriate infrastructure for hydrogen refueling stations (HRS) and its road transportation and distribution. The exclusive hydrogen backbone pipeline will enable the interconnection between remote green hydrogen production units with large end consumers (refineries, industrial units, etc.) to help them “green” their production processes, but also the interconnection with the respective systems of neighboring countries. Finally, through the integrated “White Dragon” project, the possibility will be explored for transport and export potential of hydrogen through TAP Pipeline that already connects Greece with the European markets. The key elements of the completed “White Dragon” project are: Total investment cost: 8,063bn € Project’s duration: 2022 - 2029 (phases R&D, FID and ΕΕΤ) Hydrogen production: 250,000 tons/year Hydrogen for other uses: 58,000 up to 71.000 tons/year CO2 Saving: 11.5 million tons/year Job creation: 18,000 direct job positions and 29.500 indirect * Renewable hydrogen will be supplied almost entirely into the pipelines • ATHEX ESG Index On 20/07/2021, the Athens Stock Exchange announced the establishment of the new index (ATHEX ESG Index) which will monitor the stock market performance of listed ATHEX companies adopting and promoting their practices on the environment, society, and corporate governance (ESG). The design aspires to support the TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 16 efforts of companies and consequently the Greek Stock Market to signal the efforts of continuous improvement of ESG initiatives as the regulatory environment of non-financial information will evolve. The new index called "ATHEX ESG Index (ATHEX ESG Index)" was designed to involve a maximum of 60 companies of the ATHEX Organized Market. Its calculation began on Monday, August 2 with a starting price of 1,000 units. The first composition of the index - apart from the other criteria - was determined based on the ESG score obtained from the published data of 2019. In the initial composition of the index participate 35 companies, including the Terna Energy Group. The composition of the index will be reviewed every year and the first revision will take place in November 2021 (simultaneously with the revisions of the other indices calculated by the Athens Stock Exchange) based on the data to be published by the listed companies in the context of non-financial information for fiscal year 2020. • Strategic cooperation of TITAN Group - TERNA ENERGY Group for investments in waste management On September 23, 2021, the Company announced that the consortium of TITAN Group and TERNA ENERGY Group was participating in the tenders for PPPs concerning Waste Management Units (WMUs) in Attica and Central Macedonia, Greece. Specifically, on September 22, letters of interest were submitted in the first phase of the tenders for the WMUs of the Central Park of the Circular Economy of Attica, the Park of the Circular Economy of Piraeus Regional Unit and the Western Sector of the Region of Central Macedonia. • TERNA ENERGY - HERON: They are the first ones to offer the long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) in the Greek market On 12/10/2021, TERNA ENERGY Group in collaboration with HERON, innovated by offering the first long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) in the Greek market. The two companies offer direct access to green energy to the final consumers, providing the first MWh in the market through "private" PPAs, thus paving the way for cheap electricity that will become available to both the industry and large commercial enterprises. In this context, the first four (4) contracts were signed with well-known industrial and commercial consumers, with the corresponding distribution of the RES energy quantities starting from October 1st, 2022. At the same time, negotiations were underway for the conclusion of similar contracts with other important corporate groups. The offered PPAs are addressed to large commercial and industrial consumers and fulfil their needs for energy supply cost savings and further achievement of Sustainable Development targets. They are fully in line with the objectives calling for increasing the competitiveness of Greek companies, for further penetration of RES in the energy mix of the country and for the stronger development of RES projects through bilateral commercial contracts with final consumers. PPAs are another product, after the pioneering and innovative EN.A program, emerging from the strategic cooperation of two leading companies in the field of energy. The wide portfolio of the under development projects of TERNA ENERGY, in combination with the successful activation and the growing market share of HERON in the supply of end consumers, provide the possibility of a new scheme thus allowing the Group to acquire a leading position in the market of "green PPAs". • New wind farms with a total capacity of 90 MW for development in Poland TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 17 On 18/11/2021, TERNA ENERENERGY Group further strengthened its presence in the Renewable Energy Sources market of Poland, by promoting for development purposes four (4) new projects with a total capacity of 90 MW through the newly established company Eolos Development S.p.z.o.o..

The above development marks the beginning of the end regarding the various environmental issues plaguing the Peloponnese Region for over 30 years, covering not only the current EU directives but also prospective ones, as the implementation of the project achieves high environmental benefits through the largest Integrated Waste Management PPP scheme currently under development in Greece. When the project is fully operational, landfill will be prevented and at least 65% of biodegradable materials will be utilized, 50,000 tons of liquid waste will be diverted from landfills, and green energy will be generated to serve the needs of 6,000 households, while avoiding release of 24,000 tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. The Transitional Waste Management in the Peloponnese Region started on 14/02/2022 A new era for waste management in the Peloponnese Region, Greece, started on 14/02/2022 following the commencement of the Transitional Waste Management of the new modernized Transitional Management Unit in Paleochouni, Arcadia, which will serve Arcadia, Corinth and Argolida. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 19 The transitional management will last up to 14 months and after the start of the integrated management, it will be the most modern waste management unit in the country and one of the most modern ones in Europe. Among the multiple advantages of the new unit is the fact that the Landfill (XYTY) is located close to the unit, which allows to minimize the transport requirements of waste and residuals. D. Prospectives 2021 was a milestone year for the Greek energy market, with the Target Model being fully implemented. The investment interest for new RES projects is particularly high, a fact that is demonstrated by the significant number of applications and producer certificates issued by RAE. During the year 2022, TERNA ENERGY is expected to play a leading role in the effort to achieve a sustainable and equitable energy transition in Greece, through the implementation of its integrated business plan. Sustainable development, according to the management of TERNA ENERGY, is not meaningful without the transition to the era of clean energy and the circular economy. In these areas, after all, it has been a pioneer for more than twenty years. The President of the Company, Mr. George Peristeris, stressed at the Annual Ordinary General Meeting, that, currently, the Company is in a phase of even greater growth, with the immediately feasible investment plan of the Group, amounting to about 2 billion euro, evolving smoothly and at an intensive pace. It is a unique investment plan that has not been affected by the pandemic and includes investments in key sectors, such as the production and storage of clean energy, the circular economy with pilot projects of integrated waste management, but also innovation, new technologies and the digital transition. A new generation of investments is already being planned to be followed even before the completion of the existing investment plan of 2 billion euro. In this context, the Company is launching an expanded investment plan in new wind farms, in terrestrial photovoltaic, but also in floating photovoltaic parks and floating offshore wind farms, as well as new investments in energy storage, in addition to the pumping storage project in Amfilochia and the hybrid project in Amari, Crete. Specifically: Wind Parks: The total capacity of the parks that are being built or are ready for construction amounts to 400 MW. In addition, 63 new projects that already have production certificates secured and whose total power exceeds 1.8 GW, are maturing. Photovoltaic Parks: The total power of the P/P promoted by the Company amounts to approximately 1.7 GW, of which more than 1.1 GW already have a production license. Storage projects: The Group's investment plan in storage mainly through pump storage but also through other technologies reaches approximately 2 GW. The projects in Amfilochia and Amari are more mature. Floating offshore wind farms: In a joint venture with Ocean Winds, floating parks are planned in the Greek seas with a total capacity of 1.5 GW. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 20 In summary, these are new projects with a total capacity of about 7 GW, of which 5 GW have already secured the first licenses, are maturing and will gradually begin to be implemented. At the same time, the Group is preparing for the new generation of waste management projects, claiming every relevant project that is announced in Attica, Thessaloniki and in all regions of the country. At the same time, it claims a series of projects related to new technologies, telecommunications, and digital transition, while it participates together with other powerful Greek Groups in the White Dragon program that concerns the use of hydrogen. Furthermore, the President of the Company, Mr. George Peristeris stated that, “with the investments that are in progress and those that will follow, we create thousands of well-paid jobs, giving the opportunity to the Greek scientific manpower, to our young people, to live with dignity and optimism for the future in their homeland, but we also give the opportunity to those who left, to return slowly back to us. Because without a strong society, entrepreneurship is not meaningful. If the result of our work does not spread towards a lot of people, all this effort does not make sense. In this context, we intensify our social actions even more, supporting the health system, the vulnerable social groups, the young scientists and the local communities where we operate. Let me name two of our typical actions. The conversion of the 115 Military Unit of the military airport in Souda to the first green and energy autonomous military airport in the world through a sponsorship of over 3.5 million euros, but also to the project we undertook to transform the island of Ai Stratis into a green and energy autonomous island. In combination with the actions, we have taken over the years for optimal corporate governance and enhancement of the transparency and protection of the interests of our shareholders and partners, we continue to pay particular attention to ESG issues, i.e. those related to environmental protection, society and corporate governance ". Considering the above, the prospects of the TERNA ENERGY Group for the year 2022 are positive, despite the difficult period that the world economy and Greece are going through. TERNA ENERGY, with consistency and high sense of corporate social responsibility that distinguishes it, will remain a pioneer in the field of investments and will seek to maintain the growth rate of the Group according to its business plan, despite the adverse conditions, unexpectedly worsened by both the outbreak of Covid-19 pandemic. Section E (vi) makes a special, brief reference to the potential, relevant risks. TERNA ENERGY, with consistency and high sense of corporate social responsibility that distinguishes it, will remain a pioneer in the field of investments and will seek to maintain the growth rate of the Group according to its business plan, despite the adverse conditions, unexpectedly worsened by both the outbreak of Covid-19 pandemic as well as the most recent events of war conflicts in the wider region of Ukraine. Section E (vi) makes a special, brief reference to the potential, relevant risks. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 21 E. Risks and uncertainties The Group’s activities expose it to various financial risks such as market risk (including foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and price volatility risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group, in order to deal with the financial risks and to limit their negative impact on its financial results, monitors the fluctuations of the variables that affect cost and sales and uses the appropriate products, as the case may be. The main risks and uncertainties related to the Group's operations are as follows: i. Credit risk The Group examines its receivables on an on-going basis and incorporates the arising data in its credit control. The total of the energy segment receivables relates to the broader domestic (including DAPEEP and DEDDIE) and foreign Public Sector, while the same is the case regarding the main part of the construction segment receivables. Given the nature of its operations, the Group is not, as a rule, exposed to significant credit risk from trade receivables except delays in collections from DAPEEP, which have been significantly reduced by the application of Law 4254/14 as well as the extraordinary levy imposed, for the financial year 2020, for encountering the side effects of the coronavirus pandemic, to the producers of electricity from Renewable Energy Sources (RES) stations, and particularly for those which have been put into normal or test operation until 31 December 2015 (Government Gazette 245 / 09.12.2020). The one-off extraordinary levy amounted to 6% of electricity sales for the year 2020. For the Group, the relevant extraordinary levy amounted to € 5,252 thousand and burdened the results of the year 2020. The credit risk in respect of cash and cash equivalent and other receivables is low, since the parties to transaction are banks of high-quality capital structure, the State or the entities of the broader Public Sector or strong business groups. Finally, the Group Management estimates that all the financial assets, for which the necessary impairments have been performed, are of high credit quality. ii. Foreign exchange risk Apart from Greece, the Group operates in Eastern Europe and, therefore, it may be exposed to foreign exchange risk, potentially arising from the exchange rate of Euro against other currencies. This type of risk may arise only from trade transactions in foreign currency, from financial investments in foreign currency, as well as from net investments in foreign entities. To limit this risk, the Group uses the cash surpluses generated in local currency. During the operational phase, all related costs and revenues are made in local currency, thus excluding any possibility of generating currency exchange differences. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 22 To address this risk, the Group's financial management department systematically monitors exchange rate fluctuations and ensures that they do not adversely affect its cash flows. Regarding the Company’s transactions with foreign entities, such transactions primarily take place with European Groups, where Euro is the settlement currency and, therefore, such transactions are not exposed to foreign exchange risk. iii. Interest rate risk The Group’s policy is to minimize its exposure to cash flow interest rate risk with regards to its long-term financing. In this context, long-term loans received by the Group either bear a fixed interest rate or are hedged for almost the entire duration. Thus, 35.2% of the Group's long-term borrowing refers to fixed interest rate loans, 30.2% refers to floating-rate loans that have been hedged through derivatives with which future fixed rate payments are exchanged against floating rate collections, while 34.6% in floating rate loans on a case by case basis euribor or wibor. The Group’s total short-term bank loans are in euro under floating interest rates linked to euribor. Short‐term loans are primarily received as bridge financing during the phase of implementation and construction of the Group’s investments (Wind parks). These loans are expected to be repaid within one year, while new short‐term loans are expected to be received to finance the construction of new wind parks Therefore, the Group is exposed to interest rate risk arising from short-term debt and the part of long‐term debt that is under floating interest rates. Sensitivity analysis of interest rate risk The table, presented below, records sensitivity of earnings for the year versus the Group's short-term borrowing and deposits, at a change in the variable part of the interest rate of +20% - 20% (2020: +/- 20% just as well). Changes in interest rate are estimated to fluctuate on a reasonable basis in relation to the recent market conditions and till currently, they have been stable compared to the previous year. 2021 2020 Amounts in thousand € 20% (20)% 20% (20)% Results for the year after tax – Group (421) 421 (171) 171 Results for the year after tax – Company (130) 130 (64) 64 The Group is not exposed to other interest rate risks. iv. Market risk analysis The Group's financial assets are not exposed to market risk. v. Liquidity risk analysis The Group’s liquidity is considered satisfactory, as apart from the effective cash and cash equivalents, currently operating wind farms generate satisfactory cash flows on an on-going basis. In the year 2021 net cash flows from continuing operating activities amounted to € 149 million versus € 104 million in 2020. The Group manages TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 23 its liquidity needs by applying a cautious cash flow planning, by carefully monitoring the balance of long‐term financial liabilities as well as by systematically managing the payments which take place daily. The liquidity needs are monitored at different time zones, on a daily and weekly basis, as well as based on a moving 30‐day period. The liquidity needs for the next 6 months, and the next year are defined monthly. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents in banks, in order to cover its liquidity needs for periods up to 30 days. The capital for mid‐term liquidity needs is released from the Company’s term deposits. vi. Other risks and uncertainties The Group remains exposed to short‐term fluctuations of wind and hydrologic data, a fact, which does not affect the long‐term efficiency of its projects, as prior to the implementation of the investments extensive studies take place with regards to the long‐term behavior of such factors. The construction sector of TERNA ENERGY is subject to significant fluctuations, both with regards to turnover and with regards to the profitability of each construction project, because the construction activity, particularly of specialized companies such as TERNA ENERGY, entails increased volatility that is mainly related to the ongoing renewal of the backlog of construction agreements towards third parties, which are mainly Public entities. (a) Special statement on coronavirus (COVID-2019) pandemic The outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 and the measures taken to limit its spread significantly affected the global and Greek economy and disrupted the global economic stability. The economic impact will depend on the duration and intensity of the recession, as well as the prospects for recovery. However, the good progress of the vaccination program as well as the gradual easing of strict containment measures during 2021 led to a partial recovery of the domestic economy. TERNA ENERGY Group holds a leading position in the sector of renewable energy sources. With a portfolio of projects of total capacity approximately 1,300 MW (in operation or under construction), is one of the largest investors in the Renewable Energy sector in Greece, with a significant presence in the Southeast Europe. The Management's position is that the Group operates in the segments that are more defensive during the phases of the business cycle, which investors recognize as "safe haven" that provide stable recurring cash flows even in times of turmoil and uncertainty, such as the current one. Furthermore, during the Greek financial crisis (i.e. the most difficult and longest financial crisis in Europe), the Group has already proven its ability to grow and strengthen its market position. Group Organizational Planning Applying an extremely high sense of responsibility, towards its customers, employees, suppliers, partners and investors, the Group’s Management monitors the developments in respect of the coronavirus pandemic (COVID- 19), assessing the potential risk factors that could affect the Group's financial position, operations and results. Employee safety has been and still is an absolute priority. For this purpose, TERNA ENERGY maintains, through the special committee, which reports to the Supreme Administration, the plan to ensure business continuity by TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 24 monitoring all relevant developments. Internal and external protocols for regular and urgent communication with employees and other key stakeholders have been maintained and the actions taken since the beginning of the pandemic continue unabated. The above mentioned actions are presented below: • Creation of a safe working environment for all employees along with the adoption of distance work policies wherever and whenever this is deemed feasible and necessary. The Group has taken a number of precautionary measures, including a large-scale teleworking plan (covering, over this period, more than 50% of the personnel). In addition, the Group provided communication channels for health advice and psychological support for all employees. • Establishment of a special committee for the treatment of coronavirus and ensuring that ALL employees of the Group have the absolute protection and care against COVID-19 and its mutations. The Committee systematically monitors the development of the pandemic, is also being immediately informed of any critical factors of its spread and guides the necessary actions to be taken by the Management and each employee throughout the Group in order to minimize the risks of the phenomenon and their impact on the course of the company. At the same time, the Committee has entered into an agreement with a special diagnostic center for the proper and timely examination of all its human resources with the aim of protecting them until the end of the pandemic and bringing social life back to normalcy. Finally, it has safeguarded the workplaces for those employees who continue to work in their offices by implementing the most stringent measures decided by the competent scientific committee of the Greek State. • Security and utilization of the most modern information technology to limit movement and travel to a minimum, the implementation of teleconferencing (video calls), as well as modern, flexible ways of working depending on the individual or special needs of groups of employees. • Establishment and adoption of extremely strict operating rules at all points of presence and operation of the Group in Greece and abroad, in order to constantly confirm the highest possible level of health safety for all. Effects arising from the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) and their mitigation measures The Group has taken all the necessary measures in order to continue the development of its core operations, continuing the exploitation of RES and implementation of its investment plan in the energy segment, strengthening the efforts aimed at stabilizing the Greek economy and improving prospects of employment. In particular, the Management examined the specific conditions that could have a significant impact on the business activities of the RES operating segment as well as the risks to which it is exposed. Based on current events and conditions regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, such issues are analyzed as follows. No interruption or other adverse impact on the Group's facilities that are in operation occurred in the RES electricity segment in Greece. Regarding RES facilities under construction, no delays have been caused due to the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) until today and the estimated time of completion and commissioning of the projects has not changed. Regarding the collection of the Group's revenues, no delays were recorded in 2021. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 25 Although estimates regarding the impact of the pandemic on the global and Greek economy vary, Management estimates that the Group's operations, financial performance, cash flows and financial position will not be significantly affected. In any case, the Management ensures the maintenance of the smooth operation both in the Greek territory and in the other countries where the Group operates, applying procedures of continuous identification and evaluation of all risks that may arise in the near future. In direct, continuous and systematic cooperation with the Risk Managers and the executives of the Group, the Management plans and implements measures to deal with any identified risk in order to limit its negative effects to the minimum possible. The organizational efficiency of the Group and the continuous efforts of the Management to use its managers by project and specific issue depending on the required ability and experience, have created a proven capable, flexible and effective mechanism for dealing with any possible crisis in any company of the Group whenever it appears. Due to this fundamental principle is the immediate response of Management and the above mechanism for dealing with the epidemic crisis with prudence, balance and strategic perspective. The impact from COVID-19 is not expected to be significant for TERNA ENERGY Group and the Management has estimated that there is no substantial uncertainty regarding the continuation of the business activity of the Group and the Company. (b) Special note to the war conflict in the region of Ukraine Terna Energy Group closely monitors the geopolitical developments in Ukraine which in any case do not have a direct impact on its size and financial performance. However, from these events, risks have already appeared, and new ones are expected to emerge. These may include fluctuations in expected state revenues in the tourism sector, inflation pressures on energy and grain prices and uncertainty in the development of foreign direct investment, with all the above being factors that may affect fiscal flexibility and the wider macroeconomic climate and thus have inevitable repercussions on the operations of the Group. (c) Wind and hydrological data fluctuations Regarding its activity in the energy sector, the Group remains exposed to the short-term fluctuations of wind and hydrological data, without affecting the long-term profitability of its projects, if the implementation of its investments is preceded by extensive studies involving long-term studies of the above factors. From now on, calculation models should incorporate new factors allowing for the occurrence of potential events of force majeure, such as the current epidemic, in order to examine in greater depth, the viability of any projected investment. Regarding the unprecedented and extreme weather conditions in the State of Texas, USA in February 2021 and their effects on the Group's business activities, a relevant analysis is presented in Note 7.1 of the Financial Statements of the parent company, for the annual period ended 31/12/2021. F. Alternative Performance Measurement Indicators (“APMI”) TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 26 In the context of applying the Guidelines “Alternative Performance Measures” of the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA/2015/1415el) which are applied from 3rd of July 2016 in the Alternative Performance Measures Indicators (APMI) The Group utilizes Alternative Performance Measurement Indicators ("APMI") in its financial, operational and strategic planning decisions, as well as in evaluating and publishing its performance. These APMI serves to better understanding the Group’s financial and operating results as well as its financial position when describing the Company's performance, the following indicators are used: Alternative indicators should always be considered in conjunction with the financial results prepared in accordance with IFRSs and in no case should they replace them. The following indicators are used when describing the Group's performance by sector: EBIΤ (Earnings before Interest & Taxes): It is a ratio by which the Company's Management assesses its operating performance. It is defined as: Turnover, - Cost of sales, - Administrative & distribution expenses, - Research & development expenses, +/- Other Income / (Expenses) and other Gains / (Losses) determinants of ΕΒΙΤ. The other Income / (Expenses) determinants are defined as Other Income (Expenses), not including foreign exchange valuation differences, Impairment / (Recovery of impairment) of assets as presented in Note 37. EBITDA (Earnings before Interest Taxes Depreciation & Amortization): The ratio is calculated as Earnings before Interest & Tax (EBIT) adding the total depreciation of tangible and intangible assets and deducting grants depreciations. The greater the indicator is, the more efficient the operation of the Company becomes. The EBITDA is defined as EBIT adding assets depreciation, less grants depreciation. “Net debt / (Surplus)” is a ratio by which the Company’s Management assesses each time the respective cash position. The ratio is defined as total long-term loan liabilities, short-term loan liabilities, long-term liabilities carried forward, less cash and cash equivalents ( excluding the amounts of grants to be repaid) less restricted deposits related to bank debt. “ Gross Profit Margin” is a ratio by which the Company’s Management assesses the return level and is defined as Gross Profit to Turnover. "Loan Liabilities to Total Capital in Use" is an indicator, that the Management assesses the Group's financial leverage. Loan Liabilities are the total of Short-term Loans, Long-term Loans and Long-term Loans payable the following year. Total Capital Employed is defined as the total of equity, loan liabilities, securities similar to financial liabilities (Note 28) in the accompanying Financial Statements), the repayment of which follows the payment of the debt arising from the respective wind farms and is conducted only at the degree where the returns required from their operations, lease liabilities, grants are reduced by the amount of cash available that is not subject to any restriction or commitment, beyond the commitments associated with the borrowing. The following tables configures the ratios “EBIT”, “EBITDA”, “Net debt / (Surplus)” , “Gross Profit Margin” and "Loan Liabilities to Total Capital Employed": TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 27 Operating segments Construction Electricity from RES Electricity trading Waste management E-Ticket Intersegment consolidation eliminations Consolidated total 31st December 2021 Revenue Sales of products and services 27.694 224.428 132.317 4.321 16.647 − 405.407 Intersegment revenue 96.345 − − − − (96.345) − Total revenue from continuing operations 124.039 224.428 132.317 4.321 16.647 (96.345) 405.407 Cost of sales (113.606) (87.623) (129.828) (3.810) (14.682) 86.119 (263.430) Gross profit from continuing operations 10.433 136.805 2.489 511 1.965 (10.226) 141.977 Administrative and distribution expenses (805) (22.277) (621) (511) (641) 8 (24.847) Research and development expenses (306) (4.967) − − − − (5.273) Other income/(expenses) and other gain/(losses)-ΕΒΙΤ determinants 41 9.115 (2.070) 50 1.183 1 8.320 Operating results (EBIT) from continuing operations 9.363 118.676 (202) 50 2.507 (10.217) 120.177 Depreciation (109) (48.563) (37) (144) (14) 1.883 (46.984) Grants' amortisation − 5.374 − − − − 5.374 EBITDA from continuing operations 9.472 161.865 (165) 194 2.521 (12.100) 161.787 Long‐term loans 126 805.739 − 50.992 15.287 − 872.144 Short‐term loans − 40.425 − − − − 40.425 Long‐term liabilities carried forward 180 66.946 − 310 3.530 − 70.966 Cash and cash equivalents (50.860) (312.169) (21.406) (2.567) (10.407) − (397.409) Grants to be rebated − 3.024 − − − 3.024 Restricted cash − (59.401) (77) (1.316) (399) − (61.193) Net debt/(surplus) (50.554) 544.564 (21.483) 47.419 8.011 527.957 TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 28 Operating segments Construction Electricity from RES Electricity trading Waste management E-Ticket Intersegment consolidatio n eliminations Consolidated total 31st December 2020 * Revenue Sales of products and services 5.460 193.993 35.949 4.320 8.969 − 248.691 Intersegment revenue 21.223 − − − − (21.223) − Total revenue from continuing operations 26.683 193.993 35.949 4.320 8.969 (21.223) 248.691 Cost of sales (27.075) (80.241) (35.445) (3.561) (8.163) 22.774 (131.711) Gross profit from continuing operations (392) 113.752 504 759 806 1.551 116.980 Administrative and distribution expenses (637) (21.163) (366) (241) (536) − (22.943) Research and development expenses (128) (2.716) − (56) − − (2.900) Other income/(expenses) and other gain/(losses)-ΕΒΙΤ determinants 380 1.407 686 26 (2) (1) 2.496 Operating results (EBIT) from continuing operations (777) 91.280 824 488 268 1.550 93.633 Depreciation (47) (43.605) (16) (105) (8) 1.738 (42.043) Grants' amortisation − 5.381 − − − − 5.381 EBITDA from continuing operations (730) 129.504 840 593 276 (188) 130.295 Long‐term loans − 814.658 − 27.262 15.312 − 857.232 Short‐term loans − 27.451 36 − − − 27.487 Long‐term liabilities carried forward − 66.027 − 490 2.847 − 69.364 Cash and cash equivalents − (263.429) (2.288) (16.434) (8.756) − (290.907) Grants to be rebated − 3.024 − − − − 3.024 Restricted cash − (52.573) (673) − − − (53.246) Net debt/(surplus) − 595.158 (2.925) 11.318 9.403 − 612.954 * Amounts adjusted to include only continuing operations.

Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise ) 57 7 Environmental Management 7.1 Major risks and risk management Metric ATHEX A-E2: Climate change risks and opportunities TERNA ENERGY Group systematically identifies and prioritizes environmental risks associated with its companies’ activities and which may cause adverse effects both for the stakeholders (e.g., local communities) and in the natural environment (e.g., impacts in land, water, air and ecosystems). As part of its environmental management, the Group prioritizes the protection of biodiversity, as it is essential for the survival of plants and animal species’ genetic diversity and natural ecosystems. Potential impacts in the case of neglecting the protection of biodiversity could be water and air pollution, threats to avifauna and to their habitats, threats to human health and food security. Through the protection of livestock, the Group contributes to the strengthening of local incomes (e.g., protection of crops for local producers) and consequently to the avoidance of bankruptcy risk. The Group also recognizes that the effects of climate change, such as the gradual increase in global average temperature and the increase in the frequency of emergencies and severe weather events, are a challenge for the global business community, presenting both opportunities and risks in the design and implementation of its business model. Moreover, the Group being a pioneer in Greece in identifying that the shift to Clean Energy and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions should be priority for tackling the effects of climate change, integrates climate risks and opportunities in the formulation of the Group's business strategy as a prerequisite for its Sustainable Development and its ability to continue to create value. 7.2 Due Diligence and other polices Environmental Management Environmental protection is an integral part of the Group's strategy and becomes visible through its policies and its strategic, and business decisions and actions. As a result of the high priority given by the Group to environmental issues, the Environmental Manager reports directly to the CEO. The Group acts purposefully and takes measures to reduce its negative environmental footprint through responsible energy management, proper use of natural resources (e.g., water, energy, materials) and protecting and conserving biodiversity. In particular, the Group's environmental strategy includes: • the implementation of the Environmental Management System, • the implementation of the Eco-Management and Audit Scheme System (EMAS), • the mitigation of the climate change impacts, • the protection and conservation of biodiversity, • the responsible management of solid and liquid waste, • the responsible water management. The Group also has a Management Systems Policy , which is committed to reducing the impact of its operations on the environment and reducing its energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in its buildings and facilities, aiming to sustainable development. The policy provides: • compliance with the applicable legal and other environmental and ecosystem protection requirements, • avoidance of environmental pollution, • saving of natural resources through the reuse and recycling of materials, TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise ) 58 • responsible use of energy andsearch and elimination of any energy waste activity. Environmental Compliance By implementing a comprehensive Environmental Management System, TERNA ENERGY Group identifies the environmental impacts of its activities and is therefore able to take the necessary measures in a timely manner, to reduce its environmental footprint and continuously improve its environmental performance. To ensure environmental compliance both in terms of activities and in terms of operations of the Group, internal and external environmental audits are carried out both on an annual basis and at regular intervals, to assess the degree of compliance with the legislation, protocols and work practices, the requirements of the International Standards, as well as their degree of implementation. Internal environmental audits are carried out by the QHSE Department while all the activities and facilities of the Group in Greece are certified according to ISO 14001:2015 “Environmental Management System”. Tackling climate change As underlined in the environmental statement, TERNA ENERGY Group is committed to reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in its buildings and facilities. At the same time, its activities in the field of energy production from RES, but also waste management, are contributing to tackling climate change. TERNA ENERGY Group is one of the leading producers of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) in Greece. Climate change mitigation is at the core of the Group’s business and is fully integrated into its decision-making mechanisms and management. Having the full support of the Board of Directors, TERNA ENERGY Group actively participates in the mitigation of Climate Change in the following ways: 1. The decarbonization in terms of indirect energy emissions of greenhouse gases (Scope 2). More specifically, it is committed to use 100% green electricity from 2021 onwards, in all facilities in Greece. 2. Expansion and intensification of the assessment of risks and opportunities related to climate change, which is already taking place under the Group’s Environmental Management System and is aligned with the TCFD recommendations. 3. Contribution to the global decarbonization target, increasing the installed capacity of our energy production from RES to 3GW by the end of 2025. We will continue and increase the production of energy from RES, which in 2020 resulted in the prevention of the release of 3 million tons of Greenhouse Gases. 4. The acceleration of investment plans in the field of energy storage, to decisively contribute to the maximization of the penetration of RES and to the achievement of the Greek national goals regarding energy and climate. The production of energy from RES contributes to the reduction of CO 2 emissions into the atmosphere, the reduction of the greenhouse effect and consequently the mitigation of the relevant effects. RES, as inexhaustible sources of energy, which are becoming increasingly competitive in the market and more urgent for the protection of the planet, also contribute to minimizing the dependence on fossil fuels, such as oil and gas. It is worth emphasizing that TERNA ENERGY has long been one of the largest investors in the Greek RES market and, simultaneously, one of the largest Greek RES Groups internationally. In this context, through the RES projects that the Group owns and operates, it has met its objectives and has attained economic growth at a group level, while at country and national economy level, it has contributed to a significant reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, to the saving of domestic conventional energy sources while it has also met significant energy needs of citizens. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise ) 59 Protection and conservation of biodiversity In the context of responsible impacts management on biodiversity that may arise from the activities of the Group, methods and technologies are adopted to protect the natural ecosystems and the biological wealth of its activity areas. To this end, the Group applies the following: 1. Investigation on the areas that the projects are located and the required infrastructure as to whether they are included in areas or regions that are governed by specific regulatory restrictions based on established land uses, the existence of Natura 2000 sites, as well as other protected areas. 2. Preparation of Environmental Impact Studies (EIA) and other specific studies in accordance with the provisions arising from the applicable international (where required) and national legal framework. 3. Implementation of a certified Environmental Management System (EMS) and training. More specifically, the environmental management system, certified in accordance with the requirements of the international standard ISO 14001, has been developed and communicated to all stakeholders involved in the supply chain (employees, partners, suppliers), while at the same time trainings are conducted for the Group's employees. 4. Installation of avifauna protection systems in wind farms, as provided by the decision approving environmental terms. By 2021, protection systems for avifauna had been installed in the following wind farms: • CRETE W / F PERDIKOKORFI: 4 machines • EVROS W / F MYRTOYLA : 19 machines W / F DERVENI: 8 machines W/F XIROVOUNI: 3 machines W/F XYLOS : 2 machines W/F DIDYMOS LOFOS: 3 machines Moreover, the study regarding the wind farms in the under-construction project of Karystia is in progress, as well as the study regarding the protection of the wildlife in the under-construction project of waste management in the Peloponnese Region (MEA Skala Laconia). Responsible waste management Responsible waste management applies to the activities of TERNA ENERGY Group and its suppliers and partners, both in Greece and abroad. An irresponsible management of waste may cause negative impacts both for the local communities (e.g., contamination of the local environment and deterioration of the residents’ quality of life) and country (degradation of the natural environment and intensification of the solid and liquid waste management problem), as well as at its operations (e.g., imposition of sanctions and work stoppage due to the uncontrolled production and/or waste disposal method). To avoid these impacts, the Group is constantly looking to mitigate the outputs and waste generated by its operations, selecting the best available waste management and disposal practices, working with certified bodies, and strictly implementing the certified Environmental Management System. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise ) 60 7.3 Results of the above policies and non‐financial performance indicators To ensure environmental compliance, during 2021, more than 40 internal and external audits were carried out in all the Group's facilities. In April 2021, Group Certification was completed by the Certification Body for ISO 14001 Standard, which resulted in the issuance of compliance certificates for all TERNA ENERGY Group subsidiaries. It is worth noting that in 2021, the Group proceeded with the installation and implementation of an Eco- Management and Audit Scheme System in accordance with the EMAS 1221/2009 Regulation (as amended by 1505/2017). During the internal, as well as the external audits, the elements that need improvement are identified and evaluated and preventive and corrective actions are proposed.

The Regulation establishes the criteria for determining whether an economic activity qualifies as environmentally sustainable, for the purposes of establishing the degree to which an investment is environmentally sustainable. The Regulation creates a common language that investors can use when investing in projects and economic activities that have significant positive impact on climate and the environment. For an economic activity to qualify as environmentally sustainable, it should: • contribute substantially to at least one of the following six environmental objectives: 1. Climate change mitigation 2. Climate change adaptation 3. The sustainable use and protection of water and marine resources 4. The transition to a circular economy 5. Pollution prevention and control 6. The protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems • not significantly harm (Do No Significant Harm - DNSH) any of the other five environmental objectives, • respect minimum safeguards, as set in the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises and the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, including the principles and rights set out in the eight fundamental conventions identified in the International Labour Organization’s Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work and the International Bill of Human Rights • comply with the technical screening criteria established by the European Commission. Compliance with the Regulation 2020/852/EU – Methodology and accounting policy Article 8(1) of Regulation 2020/852/EU provides that companies required to publish non-financial information (in accordance with Directive 2013/34/EU) should disclose additional information on how and to what extent their activities are associated with economic activities that qualify as environmentally sustainable, as defined by the Regulation. Notably, under Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178 (Article 10, paragraph 2) on disclosures to be made in the year 2022, relating to the financial year 2021 (without the obligation to provide comparative information for 2020), there is an obligation for non-financial undertakings to disclose the proportion of Taxonomy-eligible and Taxonomy non-eligible economic activities: o Turnover ( " Turnover " ) , o Capital expenditure (" CapEx "), and o Operating expe nditure (" OpEx "'), In their total turnover, capital, and operating expenditure. For disclosures to be made in year 2023 referring to 2022 financial year, the obligations will be extended, as the companies will have to disclose - among other things - whether their eligible economic activities are aligned with the technical criteria of the Regulation. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise ) 72 Accounting policy for the determination of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) Turnover The proportion of turnover referred to in point (a) of Article 8(2) of Regulation (EU) 2020/852 shall be calculated as the proportion of the net turnover derived from products or services, including intangibles, linked to Taxonomy-eligible economic activities (numerator), divided by the net turnover (denominator) as defined in point (5) of Article 2 of Directive 2013/34/EU. Turnover shall cover revenues recognized in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 1(82)(a), as approved by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1126/20081. Turnover does not include any intragroup transactions. Capital expenditure (CAPEX) The proportion of capital expenditure referred to in point (b) of Article 8(2) of Regulation (EU) 2020/852 shall be calculated as the numerator divided by the denominator as defined in points 1.1.2.1 and 1.1.2.2 of Annex I of the Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178. Denominator The denominator cover additions to tangible and intangible assets during the financial year considered before depreciation and amortization and any remeasurements, including those resulting from revaluations and impairments, for the relevant financial year and excluding fair value changes. The denominator also covers additions to tangible and intangible assets arising from business combinations. Leases that do not lead to the recognition of a right of use over the asset are not counted as capital expenditures. Numerator The numerator equals to the part of the capital expenditure included in the denominator that is any of the following: a. relating to assets or processes that are associated with Taxonomy-eligible economic activities. b. part of a plan to expand Taxonomy-eligible economic activities or to allow Taxonomy-eligible economic activities to become Taxonomy-aligned (‘CapEx plan’) under the conditions specified in the second subparagraph of the point 1.1.2.2 Operating expenditure (OPEX) The proportion of OpEx referred to in Article 8(2), point (b), of Regulation (EU) 2020/852 shall be calculated as the numerator divided by the denominator as specified in points 1.1.3.1 and 1.1.3.2 of Annex I of the Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178. Denominator The denominator covers direct non-capitalized costs that relate to research and development, building renovation measures, short-term lease, maintenance and repair, and any other direct expenditures relating to the day-to-day servicing of assets of property, plant and equipment by the undertaking or third party to whom activities are outsourced that are necessary to ensure the continued and effective functioning of such assets.

The Board of Directors collectively, as well as the Chairman and the members of the Board individually, are evaluated annually as far as the effective performance of their duties is concerned. The evaluation process is headed by the Vice Chairman in collaboration with the Nominations and Remuneration Committee and its results are discussed by the Board. Following the evaluation process, the Board of Directors takes measures to address identified weaknesses. This evaluation may be facilitated by an external consultant at least every three years. The evaluation of the performance of its chairman is also headed by the Nomination Committee. During the period 21/12/2021 until 3/1/2002, a questionnaire was distributed regarding the evaluation of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company. The questionnaire was compiled, distributed, and processed on a specialized digital platform, in collaboration with the consulting company Mazars for the support of the implementation of the process, and in order to compile the Evaluation Results Report of the Board of Directors of TERNA ENERGY. The questionnaire was divided into seven main evaluation modules which included: i) Evaluation (as a Body) of the Board of Directors, ii) Evaluation of the Boards of Directors, iii) Evaluation of the Chairman, Vice-Chairman, CEO, Corporate Secretary, and iv) Evaluation of the BoD Members. In the case of the individual evaluation of the members, the answer "I do not know" was added to deal objectively with the possibility of a non-applicable question that may have been the case for the new members of the Board of Directors, as many of its members had an active role for less than six months. The general conclusion from the evaluation was that the members have knowledge and are consistently informed about the developments in the industry as well as in the regulatory environment. Each member is fully aware of the responsibilities assigned to him/her. Areas for improvement were identified as follows: - The organizational effort and initiatives regarding the planning and development of the Company. - The earlier delivery of the accompanying material before each BoD meeting, than the time currently provided in the Internal Rules of Procedure, so that members of the Board of Directors have more time to review the relevant material and get well prepared for the meeting.

Suitability Policy The Company has a Suitability Policy of the Members of the Board of Directors, prepared by its Nomination Committee in accordance with the provisions of article 3 of Law 4706/2020 and the guidelines of Circular no. 60 of the Hellenic Capital Market Commission. The Policy was approved by the General Meeting of the Company's Shareholders on 23.06.2021 following the approval by the Board of Directors on 02.06.2021 and entered into force on the date of its approval by the General Shareholders’ Meeting. Individual amendments require re-approval by the Board of Directors, while the Policy’s Revision requires among other conditions a Decision of the General Meeting. A revision is characterized by the adoption of substantial amendments that introduce significant derogations or also significantly alter the content of the policy, as regards the principles and criteria applied, or the full rewriting of the Policy. In addition, the increased needs of monitoring the framework of Corporate Governance, Risk Management, Regulatory Compliance, as well as the operation of Company Divisions such as Human Resources, IT and Technology, Information Security Management, Health, Safety and Environment were considered. The above was performed by assigning administrative or supervisory responsibilities to executive members of the Board. At the same time, the possibility of contributing to the areas of responsibilities and / or technical support of the Committees of the Board was considered. The Suitability Policy aims to ensure quality staffing, efficient operation, and fulfilment of the role of the Board based on the general strategy and the medium-term business aspirations of the Company, with the aim of promoting the corporate interest. The aim of this policy is to have a highly efficient Board of Directors . Such is considered a Board of Directors with an established team, which cooperates with a common commitment to protect and enhance the share value, instead of a formal gathering of executives who manage corporate affairs without the ability to cooperate constructively and with a growth perspective. The Policy takes into account best practices and is harmonized with the corporate culture and also with what is provided in the Articles of Association, the Internal Rules of Procedure and the Greek Code of Corporate Governance to which the Company belongs. The Policy is also clear and sufficiently documented and governed by the principles of transparency and proportionality while at the same time promoting diversity, meritocracy, and efficiency during the selection and during the term of office of the members of the Board. Furthermore, during the preparation of the Policy, the size, the internal organization, the risk-taking attitude, the nature, the scale, and the complexity of the Company's business activities were considered, including indicatively and not restrictively the sectors of constructions, concessions, energy, real estate management and TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 120 development, mining, waste management, service provision, PPP projects, as well as operation of major infrastructure projects. The guiding principles governing this policy are: • Compliance • Transparency • Proportionality • Diversity • Meritocracy • Efficiency • Experience and historicity 9. Diversity policy The Company has and implements a diversity policy to promote an appropriate level of differentiation in the Board and a diverse group of members. The Policy is drafted with the belief that a Board of Directors that has a wide range of perspectives and diversity is in a more advantageous position than other Boards with limited scope, as the existence of diversity allows the Company to take advantage of market opportunities but also effectively manage the respective risks. The Board can be highly efficient if it consists of a wide range of members with diverse but complementary groups of skills or knowledge. Its culture is positively shaped by the different approaches and views and will be quite representative of the values of the Group itself. In this way, the Board of Directors finally forms a progressive and thoughtful perception of its affairs, while at the same time promoting prudent risk-taking. Through the accumulation of a wide range of qualifications and skills in the selection of the members of the Board, the variety of views and experiences is ensured, to make the right decisions. In this context, the adequate representation by gender is provided, at least as stipulated by the respective legislation as a percentage of the total number of the members of the Board. At the same time, all necessary measures shall be taken to ensure that there is no absolute exclusion on grounds of discrimination in terms of sex, age, race, colour, ethnicity or social origin, religion or belief, birth, disability, age or sexual orientation, property and by this way only the individual eligibility criteria specified in this Policy are the ones that should be selected. The achievement of substantial and not only formal diversity within the Boards of Directors is an important guarantee for the overall effectiveness of the Board of Directors. 10.

The purpose of the procedure is to record the actions performed in order to identify the Company's transactions, in which natural or legal persons participate, which fall within the meaning of the related parties, and for the Company to comply with the applicable legislation. The procedure provides for the reporting and maintenance of a register of related parties and the recognition of transactions of related parties through the corresponding audit of the counterparty in accordance with articles 99-101 of Law 4548/2018 . 11.

In our opinion, the accompanying separate and consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the company “TERNA ENERGY S.A.” and its subsidiary (the Group) as at 31 December 2021, their financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards that have been adopted by the European Union. Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) incorporated into the Greek Legislation. Our responsibilities under those standards are described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company within the entire course of our appointment, in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) incorporated into the Greek Legislation and ethical requirements relevant to the audit of separate and consolidated financial statements in Greece and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements of the audited period. These matters, as well as the related risk of significant misstatements, were addressed in the context of our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. 126 © 2022 Grant Thornton Greece | 58 Katehaki Av., 115 25 Athens, Greece| Τ : +30 210 7280000 F: +30 210 7212222 | www.grant-thornton.gr Key audit matters How our audit addressed the key audit matter Recoverability of non-current assets As at 31 December 2021, the Group recognized Goodwill of Euros 4 million, Intangible Assets of Euros 50.9 million (Company: Euros 2.9 million) and Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) of Euros 983.4 million (Company: Euros 73.6 million) mainly related to “Electricity and RES” segment. Also, as at 31 December 2021, the Company holds Investments in Subsidiaries of Euros 416.9 million. According to IAS 36 Intangible Assets with definite useful life, Property plant & Equipment and Investments in Subsidiaries are tested for impairment whenever Management assesses that there are indications of impairment. This assessment requires a significant degree of judgment. Non-depreciated intangible assets are tested for impairment at least on an annual basis. An impairment test involves the determination of the recoverable amounts of each Cash Generation Unit (CGU) using appropriate methodologies based on discounted cash flows. No impairment losses were recognized within the current year in the consolidated and separate financial statements. Given the significance of the aforementioned items and the high degree of objectivity regarding the assumptions used for impairment analysis as well as the use of the Management's estimates, we consider that assessment of impairment of those non‐current assets is one of the key audit matters. The Group’s and the Company’s disclosures regarding the accounting policy and assumptions and estimates used under assessing impairment of these non-current assets are included in Notes 3.1(ii), 3.2(vii), 4.1( α ), 4.4, 4.5, 4.7, 8, 10 and 11 of the financial statements. The key audit procedures we carried out included, among others: ─ Evaluation of Management’s estimates made in order to identify the existence of any indication of impairment in non‐current assets. ─ Regarding CGUs, in respect of which indications of impairment existed, we assessed: (i) appropriateness of the methods used to determine the recoverable amount; and (ii) the reasonableness of the underlying assumptions and estimates of future cash flows. ─ Evaluation of the procedures used by the Management in order to prepare reliable business plans. Among other issues, we compared and analyzed previously made estimates/projections with the actual return on CGUs. ─ For the aforementioned procedures, where this was deemed appropriate, we used Grant Thornton’s specialist. ─ We assessed the adequacy of related disclosures in the accompanying financial statements according to IFRS requirements, in relation to this matter. Revenue recognition The Group’s revenue arises from various operating segments (“Constructions”, “Electricity and Renewables Energy Sector (“RES”)”, “Trade in Electric Energy” and “Concessions”). In particular, the Group's revenue arising from: (i) RES produced electricity and trade in electric energy is recognized within the period when the respective services are rendered, (ii) construction contracts is defined by IFRS 15 applying the input method of measuring the progress based on inflows, as arising from the balance between the incurred cost and the total estimated cost until the completion of the project, (iii) concession contracts is recognized in accordance with the provisions of IFRIC 12 “Service Concession Arrangements” and the management's estimates at construction and operations stages. The key audit procedures we carried out included, among others: ─ Understanding the internal controls designed by the Management and related to revenue recognition procedures per operating segment. ─ We performed, among others, the following substantive procedures in respect of every operating segment: (i) examining, on a sample basis, the correctness of revenue recognition in accordance with the provisions of IFRS and related supporting documents, (ii) regarding revenue from for construction contracts, reviewing, on a sample basis, realized construction costs recognized in the current year in line with the corresponding supporting documents, as well as a recalculating the amount of revenue from construction contracts recognized based 127 © 2022 Grant Thornton Greece | 58 Katehaki Av., 115 25 Athens, Greece| Τ : +30 210 7280000 F: +30 210 7212222 | www.grant-thornton.gr Each operating segment includes various sources of revenue, whose recognition involves a different extent of complexity, judgments and estimates of the Management. Considering the above, in line with the significance of revenue item to the financial statements, we have identified revenue recognition as one of the key audit matters. The Group’s and the Company’s disclosures regarding revenue recognition accounting policy, judgments and estimates used in respect of revenue recognition are included in Notes 3.2(i), 4.11, 4.16, 6 and 35 of the financial statements. on completion percentage as at December 31, 2021. (iii) regarding revenue form concession agreements, understanding and analyzing the terms of concession agreements and verifying correct accounting treatment of revenue recognized under the provisions of IFRIC 12. ─ We assessed the adequacy of related disclosures in the accompanying financial statements according to IFRS requirements, in relation to this matter. Group’s divestment from the three (3) Wind Farms in Texas, USA As at 30.06.2021 and as a result of the detailed information presented in Note 7.1 of the financial statements, the Management of the Group, in accordance with the requirements of IFRS 10 "Consolidated Financial Statements", assessed that it lost control over its subsidiaries Sponsor Bearkat I Holdco LLC, Fluvanna Investments 2 LLC and Fluvanna 1 Investor Inc [hereinafter "the three (3) Wind Farms", in Texas, USA].

The Group’s disclosures regarding accounting policy, judgments and estimates used in respect of the abovementioned transactions are included in Notes 4.1 and 7.1 of the financial statements. The key audit procedures, performed by the component auditor and also reviewed by us, included, among others: ─ We participated in discussions with Management in order to understand the details of the transactions. ─ We obtained and reviewed the agreements related to the sale in order to assess the accounting treatment of the transactions on Group’s financial figures. ─ We assessed the appropriateness of accounting of the transactions under IFRSs requirements. ─ We examined the computation of the total loss of € 94.04 million from the deconsolidation of the three (3) Wind Parks. ─ We assessed the adequacy of related disclosures in the accompanying financial statements according to IFRS requirements, in relation to this matter. Other Information Management is responsible for the other information. The other information included in the Annual Financial Report includes the Board of Director’s Report, the reference to which is made in the “Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements” section of our Report and Statements of the Members of the Board of Directors, but does not include the separate and consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the separate and consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we will not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the separate and consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise 128 © 2022 Grant Thornton Greece | 58 Katehaki Av., 115 25 Athens, Greece| Τ : +30 210 7280000 F: +30 210 7212222 | www.grant-thornton.gr appears to be materially misstated. If, based on our audit, we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate that matter to those charged with governance. No such issue has arisen. Responsibilities of the Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the separate and consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards that have been adopted by the European Union and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of separate and consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the separate and consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s and the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the management’s intention is to proceed with liquidating the Company and the Group or discontinuing its operations or unless the management has no other realistic option but to proceed with those actions. The Company’s Audit Committee (Article 44, Law 4449/2017) is responsible for overseeing the Company’s and the Group’s financial reporting process. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the separate and consolidated financial statements as an aggregate, are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs, incorporated into the Greek Legislation, will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to affect the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these separate and consolidated financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, incorporated into the Greek Legislation, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also : • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the separate and consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s and the Group’s internal control. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. • Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s and the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the separate and consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company and the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the separate and consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the separate and consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. • Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding financial reporting of entities or business operations within the Group for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the separate and consociated financial statements. Our 129 © 2022 Grant Thornton Greece | 58 Katehaki Av., 115 25 Athens, Greece| Τ : +30 210 7280000 F: +30 210 7212222 | www.grant-thornton.gr responsibility is to design, supervise and perform the audit of the Company and its subsidiaries. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements 1. Board of Directors Report Taking into consideration that management is responsible for the preparation of the Board of Directors’ Report which also includes the Corporate Governance Statement, according to the provisions of paragraph 5 of article 2 (part B) of L. 4336/2015, we note the following: a.

Our appointment has been renewed by the decision of the annual general meeting of shareholders for a total uninterrupted period of 15 years. 130 © 2022 Grant Thornton Greece | 58 Katehaki Av., 115 25 Athens, Greece| Τ : +30 210 7280000 F: +30 210 7212222 | www.grant-thornton.gr 5.

In summary, this framework includes, inter alia, the following requirements: - All annual financial reports shall be prepared in XHTML format. - For the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS, financial information included in the statements of comprehensive income, financial position, changes in equity and cash flows shall be marked-up with XBRL tags, in accordance with the effective ESEF Taxonomy. ESEF technical specifications, including the relevant taxonomy, are set out in the ESEF Regulatory Technical Standards. The requirements set out in the current ESEF Regulatory Framework constitute the appropriate criteria for expressing a conclusion of reasonable assurance. Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance Management is responsible for the preparation and submission of the separate and consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2021, in accordance with the requirements of ESEF Regulatory Framework, and for such internal controls as management determines necessary to enable the preparation of digital file that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

We conducted our work in accordance with the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) issued by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants, as incorporated in Greek legislation and we have complied with the ethical requirements of independence, in accordance with Law 4449/2017 and EU Regulation 537/2014.

TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 144 2. FRAMEWORK FOR THE PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2.1 Disclosure Framework of Financial Statements The Company’s separate and consolidated financial statements as of December 31 st , 2021 cover the financial year starting on January 1st until December 31 st , 2021 have been prepared according to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), which were published by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and according to their interpretations, which have been published by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) and have been adopted by the European Union until December 31 st , 2021. The Group applies all the International Accounting Standards (IAS), the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and their Interpretations that apply to its operations. The relevant accounting policies, a synopsis of which is presented in the Note 2.6, have been consistently applied in all the presented periods. Συνέχιση δραστηριότητας Going Concern When the Management defines the appropriate basis for the preparation of the consolidated and separate financial statements, it should examine whether the Group is able to continue as a going concern in the short- term future. The Group’s Management estimates that the Company and its subsidiaries hold sufficient resources, which ensure their ability to operate as a Going Concern in the foreseeable future. The decision of the Management to use the going concern principle is based on the estimates related to potential effects of both – outbreak and spread of COVID-19 and the extreme weather conditions adversely affecting the State of Texas, the USA, in February 2021. The Management has estimated that there is no essential uncertainty regarding the continuation of the activity of the Group and the Company. These factors have been considered by the Management for the preparation of the financial statements for the year ended on 31/12/2021. 2.2 Measurement basis The accompanying Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements as of December 31 st , 2021, have been prepared according to the principle of historical cost, apart from financial derivatives, liability for contingent consideration and investments in equity instruments which are being measured at fair value. 2.3 Presentation currency The presentation currency is Euro (the currency of the Group’s parent Headquarters) and all the amounts are presented in thousand Euro unless otherwise mentioned. 2.4 Comparability TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 145 The comparative figures of the consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income have been restated to present the necessary adjustments to reflect only the continuing operations of the Group (see note 7.1.5). In addition, the comparative items of the consolidated and separate Financial Statements have been restated to reflect the retrospective adjustment due to a change in IAS 19 accounting policy (see Note 2.6.3) . 2.5 Use of estimations The preparation of the Financial Statements according to IFRS requires the use of estimates and judgments on the application of the Company’s accounting policies. Judgments, assumptions and estimates of the Management affect the amount of valuation of several asset and liability items, the amount recognized during the year regarding specific income and expenses as well as the presented estimates of contingent liabilities. Assumptions and estimates are assessed on an on-going basis according to historic experience and other factors, including expectations of future event outcomes, considered reasonable given the current conditions. The estimates and assumptions relate to the future and, consequently, the actual results may differ from the accounting calculations. The areas requiring the highest degree of judgment as well as the factors mostly affecting the consolidated Financial Statements are presented in Note 3 of the Financial Statements. 2.6 New Standards, Interpretations and Amendments of Standards The accounting principles applied for the preparation of the financial statements are the same as those followed in the preparation of the financial statements of the Group and the Company for the year ended 31 st of December 2020, except for the adoption of the amendments of certain standards, the application of which became mandatory in the European Union for fiscal years beginning on 1 January 2021 (see Note 2.6.1, 2.6.2 and 2.6.3). 2.6.1 New Standards, Interpretations, Revisions and Amendments to existing Standards that are effective and have been adopted by the European Union The following new Standards, Interpretations, and amendments of IFRSs have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), are adopted by the European Union, and their application is mandatory from or after 01/01/2021. • Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16: ”Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phase 2” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2021) In August 2020, the IASB has finalized its response to the ongoing reform of IBOR and other interest benchmarks by issuing a package of amendments to IFRS Standards. The amendments complement those issued in 2019 and focus on the effects on financial statements when a company replaces the old interest rate benchmark with an alternative benchmark rate as a result of the reform. More specifically, the amendments relate to how a company will account for changes in the contractual cash flows of financial instruments, how it will account for a change in its hedging relationships as a result of the reform, as well as relevant information required to be disclosed. The amendments do not affect the consolidated and separate Financial Statements. • Amendments to IFRS 16 “Leases”: Covid-19 – Related Rent Concessions beyond 30 June 2021 (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/04/2021) TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 146 In March 2021, the IASB issued amendments to the practical expedient of IFRS 16, that extend the application period by one year to cover Covid-19-related rent concessions that reduce only lease payments due on or before 30 June 2022. The amendments do not affect the consolidated and separate Financial Statements. Decision of IFRS Interpretations Committee, on the "Allocation of service benefits (IAS 19)": The IFRS Interpretations Committee issued in May 2021 the final decision on the agenda entitled "Distribution of benefits in periods of service in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 19", which includes explanatory material on how to distribute benefits in periods service on a specific plan of defined benefits proportional to that defined in article 8 of L.3198/1955 regarding the provision of compensation due to retirement (the "Plan of Fixed Benefits of Labor Law"). The above decision differs from the way by which the basic principles of IAS 19 have been applied in Greece in the past in this regard, and consequently, the entities that prepare their financial statements in accordance with IFRS are required to proceed with amendments depending on their accounting policy. The impact of the change is presented in detail in Note 2.6.3. 2.6.2 New Standards, Interpretations, Revisions and Amendments to existing Standards that have not been applied yet or have not been adopted by the European Union until 31/12/2021 The following new Standards, Interpretations and amendments of IFRSs have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), but their application has not started yet or they have not been adopted by the European Union. Amendments to IFRS 3 “Business Combinations”, IAS 16 “Property, Plant and Equipment”, IAS 37 “Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets” and “Annual Improvements 2018-2020” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2022) In May 2020, the IASB issued a package of amendments which includes narrow-scope amendments to three Standards as well as the Board’s Annual Improvements, which are changes that clarify the wording or correct minor consequences, oversights, or conflicts between requirements in the Standards. More specifically: - Amendments to IFRS 3 Business Combinations update a reference in IFRS 3 to the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting without changing the accounting requirements for business combinations. - Amendments to IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment prohibit a company from deducting from the cost of property, plant and equipment amounts received from selling items produced while the company is preparing the asset for its intended use. Instead, a company will recognize such sales proceeds and related cost in profit or loss. - Amendments to IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets specify which costs a company includes when assessing whether a contract will be loss-making. - Annual Improvements 2018-2020 make minor amendments to IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, IAS 41 Agriculture and the Illustrative Examples accompanying IFRS 16 Leases. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements . The above have been adopted by the European Union with effective date of 01/01/2022. Amendments to IAS 1 “Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2023) TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 147 In January 2020, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 that affect requirements for the presentation of liabilities. Specifically, they clarify one of the criteria for classifying a liability as non-current, the requirement for an entity to have the right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. The amendments include: (a) specifying that an entity’s right to defer settlement must exist at the end of the reporting period; (b) clarifying that classification is unaffected by management’s intentions or expectations about whether the entity will exercise its right to defer settlement; (c) clarifying how lending conditions affect classification; and (d) clarifying requirements for classifying liabilities an entity will or may settle by issuing its own equity instruments. Furthermore, in July 2020, the IASB issued an amendment to defer by one year the effective date of the initially issued amendment to IAS 1, in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above have not been adopted by the European Union. Amendments to IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2023) In February 2021, the IASB issued narrow-scope amendments that pertain to accounting policy disclosures. The objective of these amendments is to improve accounting policy disclosures so that they provide more useful information to investors and other primary users of the financial statements. More specifically, companies are required to disclose their material accounting policy information rather than their significant accounting policies. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above have not been adopted by the European Union. Amendments to IAS 8 “Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors: Definition of Accounting Estimates” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2023) In February 2021, the IASB issued narrow-scope amendments that they clarify how companies should distinguish changes in accounting policies from changes in accounting estimates. That distinction is important because changes in accounting estimates are applied prospectively only to future transactions and other future events, but changes in accounting policies are generally also applied retrospectively to past transactions and other past events. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above have not been adopted by the European Union. Amendments to IAS 12 “Income Taxes: Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2023) In May 2021, the IASB issued targeted amendments of IAS 12 to specify how companies should account for deferred tax on transactions such as leases and decommissioning obligations – transactions for which companies recognize both an asset and a liability. In specified circumstances, companies are exempt from recognizing deferred tax when they recognize assets or liabilities for the first time. The amendments clarify that the exemption does not apply and that companies are required to recognize deferred tax on such transactions. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements. The above have not been adopted by the European Union. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 148 2.6.3 Change in accounting policy regarding the distribution of defined employee benefits over periods of service, in accordance with IAS 19 “Employee Benefits” The IASB issued in May 2021 the final decision on the agenda entitled "Distribution of benefits in periods of service in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 19", which includes explanatory material on how to distribute benefits in periods service on a specific plan of defined benefits proportional to that defined in article 8 of L.3198 / 1955 regarding the provision of compensation due to retirement (the "Plan of Fixed Benefits of Labor Law"). The above decision differs from the way by which the basic principles of IAS 19 have been applied in Greece in the past in this regard, and consequently, the entities that prepare their financial statements in accordance with IFRS are required to proceed with amendments depending on their accounting policy. Until the issuance of the daily agenda’s decision, the Group applied IAS 19 distributing the benefits defined by article 8 of L.3198/1955, L.2112/1920 and its amendment by L.4093/2012 in the period from the recruitment until the date of retirement of the employees. The application of this final decision in the attached consolidated and separate financial statements, has resulted in the distribution of benefits over the last 16 years until the date of retirement of employees in accordance with the respective scale of Law 4093/2012. Based on the above, the implementation of the above final decision has been treated as a change in accounting policy, applying the change retroactively from the beginning of the first comparative period, in accordance with paragraphs 19 - 22 of IAS 8. The following tables depict the impact from the implementation of the final decision for each specific item of the financial statements being affected.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND MANAGEMENT ASSESSMENTS The preparation of Financial Statements in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) requires the Management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions which affect assets and liabilities, contingent receivables, and liabilities disclosures as well as revenue and expenses during the presented periods. Particularly, amounts included in or affecting the financial statements, as well as the related disclosures, are estimated through making assumptions about values or conditions that cannot be known with certainty at the time of preparation of the financial statements and therefore actual results may differ from what has been estimated. An accounting estimate is considered significant when it is material to the financial position and income statement of the Group and requires the most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments of the Management. Estimates and judgments of the Management are based on experience and other factors, including expectations for future events that judged to be reasonable in the circumstances. Estimates and judgments are continually reassessed based on all the available data and information. Key estimates and evaluations referring to data whose development could affect the financial statements items in the upcoming 12 months are the following: 3.1 Differed tax recognition Key judgments of the Management, applied while implementing the Group and the Company accounting policies, which have the most significant impact on the financial statements (apart from those analyzed in Note 3.2), are analyzed as follows. i) Recognition of deferred tax assets The extent, to which deferred tax assets are recognized for unused tax losses, is based on the judgment regarding the extent, to which it is probable that sufficient taxable profits will be offset with these tax losses. To determine the amount of a deferred tax asset that can be recognized, significant judgments and estimates of the Group’s Management are required, based on future taxable profits, combined with future tax strategies to be pursued, as well as the uncertainties dominating in various tax frameworks, within which the Group operates (for further information please refer to Note 34). ii) Impairment of non-financial assets Non-financial assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in the effective conditions indicate that their book value may not be recoverable in accordance with the accounting policy described in Note 4.7 (for further information please refer to Notes 8 and 11). iii) Acquisition of “business” according to the definition provided in IFRS 3 or acquisition of assets In accordance with IFRS 3 "Business Combinations", the Group determines whether a transaction or other event constitutes a business combination in accordance with the relevant definition of the Standard, i.e. whether the assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a "business". TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 151 In the event the acquired assets do not constitute a business, then the Group manages the transaction or other event as an acquisition of an asset. According to IFRS 3, the term "business" is defined as an integrated set of activities and assets that is capable of being conducted and managed for the purpose of providing a return in the form of dividends, lower costs, or other economic benefits directly to investors or other owners, members, or participants. The accounting treatment of a business combination is carried out in accordance with the accounting policy described in Note 4.20, while the accounting treatment of acquisition of an asset (or group of assets) which do not constitute a "business" is carried out in accordance with the accounting policy described in Note 4.21. 3.2 Uncertainty of estimates and assumptions Specific amounts that are either included or affect the Financial Statements and the related disclosures are estimated, necessitating to make assumptions about values or conditions that cannot be known with certainty during the period of the Financial Statements preparation. An accounting estimate is considered significant when it is material to the financial position and the income statement of the Group and requires most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments of the Management. The Group assesses such estimates on an ongoing basis, based on historical results and experience, while meetings with specialists, applying trends and other methods considered reasonable in the circumstances, as well as making projections regarding potential changes in the future. i) Recognition of revenue from construction contracts Managing revenue and expenses from a construction contract, depends on whether the result of the contract implementation can be reliably estimated (and is expected to bring profit to the constructor or the result of the implementation are expected to be loss-bearing). When the outcome of a construction contract can be reliably estimated, then revenue and expense of the contract are recognized over the term of the contract, respectively, as revenue and expense. The Group uses the completion stage to determine the appropriate amount of revenue and expense which it will recognize in a specific period. Based on the input method under IFRS 15, the construction cost at every reporting date is compared to the total budgeted cost to determine the percentage of completion. The completion stage is measured based on the contractual costs incurred until the reporting date in relation to the total estimated cost of every construction project. The Group, therefore, makes significant estimates regarding the gross result with which every construction contract will be implemented (total budgeted cost of the construction contract implementation). ii) Business combinations Under the initial recognition, assets and liabilities of the acquiree are included in the consolidated financial statements at their fair values. When measuring fair values, the Management uses estimates of future cash flows, but actual results may differ. Any change in measurement after the initial recognition will affect the measurement of goodwill (further information is provided in Note 7.2). TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 152 iii) iii) Provision for income tax Provision for income tax based on IAS 12 is calculated by estimating the taxes to be paid to tax authorities and includes the current income tax for every financial year and a provision for additional taxes that might arise during tax inspections. The Group’s companies are subject to various income taxation legislations. Significant estimates are required to determine the total provision for income tax, as presented in the Statement of Financial Position. The final tax determination is uncertain in respect of specific transactions and calculations. The Group recognizes liabilities for the projected tax issues based on the calculations as to the extent to which additional taxation will arise. In cases where the final tax result differs from the initially recognized amount, the differences affect the provisions for income tax and deferred tax for the period when it had been determined (for further information please refer to Note 34). iv) iv) Provision for personnel compensation Based on IAS 19, the Group, makes estimates of the assumptions underlying the actuarial valuation of provision for personnel compensation. The provision amount for personnel compensation is based on an actuarial study. The actuarial study includes specific assumptions on discount rate, employees’ remuneration increase rate, consumer price index increases and the expected remaining working life. The assumptions used are imbedded with significant uncertainty and the Group’s Management continuously reassesses these assumptions (for further information please refer to Note 25). v) Fair value measurement The Management uses valuation techniques to determine the fair value of financial instruments (when no active market prices are available) and non-financial assets. This procedure involves making estimates and assumptions about the consideration that market participants would pay to acquire these financial instruments. The Management bases its assumptions on observable data, but it is not always feasible. In such cases, the Management uses the best available information for its estimates, based on its past experience, also taking into account the available information. Estimated fair values may differ from the actual values that would be made in the context of an ordinary transaction at the reporting date of the financial statements (further information is provided in Note 44). The Group uses derivative financial instruments to manage a range of risks including interest rate and commodity prices risks. For the purpose of determining an effective hedging rate, the Group requires both - to declare its hedging strategy and to estimate that the hedge will be effective throughout the term of the hedging instrument (derivative). Further information regarding the use of derivatives is provided in Note 24. Also, any contingent consideration, provided by the Group during an acquisition, is measured at its initial recognition, as well as at every reporting date of the financial statements, at its fair value. Contingent consideration is measured in accordance with the accounting policy described in Note 4.20 20 (for cases where the acquisition is a business combination) and under IFRS 3, or in accordance with the accounting policy described in Note 4.21 (in the case when acquisitions meet the effective prerequisites to be characterized as assets) (more information is presented in Note 30). TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 153 vi) Inventory To facilitate valuation of inventories, the Group estimates, based on statistical valuation reports and market conditions, the expected selling prices and the costs of processing and disposing the items per inventory category. vii) Estimates in calculation of the value in use of non-current assets In accordance with the applied accounting policies and the requirements of IAS 36, the Group conducts a related impairment test on the assets at the end of each annual reporting period. The relevant audit, in accordance with the requirements of IAS 36, may be carried out earlier, when there are indications of contingent impairment loss. If it is established that there are reasons for impairment, it is necessary to calculate value in use and fair value less costs to sell regarding every CGU. Recoverable amounts of CGUs are determined for impairment tests purposes, based on the value in use calculation, which requires making estimates. For the calculating of calculating value in use, estimated cash flows are discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money as well as the risks associated with particular CGU. Estimate of future operating results is based on wind farm efficiency estimates based on wind data and historical data of comparable units. The key assumptions used to determine the recoverable number of various CGUs are recorded in Note 11 of the Financial Statements. viii) Useful lives of depreciated asset For the calculating of depreciations, the Group examines the useful life and residual value of tangible and intangible assets in every reporting period in the light of technological, institutional, and economic developments as well as the experience of their exploitation. As at 31/12/2021, the Management estimates that useful lives represent the expected usefulness of assets. ix) Provisions for rehabilitation of environment The Group makes provision for its related obligations to dismantle the technical equipment of wind farms and other productive facilities and restoration of the environment resulting from the applicable environmental legislation or from binding practices of the Group. Provision for rehabilitation of environment reflects the present value, as at the reporting date (based on the appropriate discount rate) of the rehabilitation obligation less the estimated recoverable amount of the materials, estimated to be disposed of and sold (further information is provided in Notes 4.15 and 26). x) Contingent liabilities and receivables The existence of contingent liabilities and receivables requires the management to make assumptions and judgments on on-going basis about the probability that future events will occur or not occur as well as the possible consequences that these events may have on the Company's and the Group's operations. Determining contingencies and requirements is a complex process that includes judgments regarding future events, laws, regulations, etc. Changes in crises or interpretations are likely to lead to an increase or decrease in the Company's contingent liabilities in the future. When additional information becomes available, the Group's Management reviews the facts, based on which it may also have to review its estimates (see Note 47). TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 154 xi) Provisions for expected credit losses from receivables from clients The Group and the Company apply the simplified approach under the provisions of IFRS 9 for calculation of expected credit losses. Under the approach, provision for impairment is measured at an amount equal to the expected lifetime loss for the receivables from customers and the contractual assets. The Group and the Company have made provisions for bad debts to adequately cover the loss that can be reliably estimated and arises from these receivables. In respect of the year ended as at 31/12/2021, the Management also considered the potential effects of COVID-19 regarding collecting the Group's revenue. It is noted that the Group did not identify significant discrepancies regarding the course of receipts in each key operating segment, to the extent that it is an indication of significant delays in the receipts of each operating segment. In every reporting period, the provision that has been made is adjusted and the changes are recognized in the income statement (further information is presented in Notes 15, 18, 19 and 20). 4. KEY ACCOUNTING POLICIES The key accounting policies adopted under the preparation of the accompanying consolidated and separate financial statements are as follows: 4.1 Basis for consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of TERNA ENERGY and its subsidiaries as at 31/12/2021. The date of preparation of the financial statements of the subsidiaries coincides with that of the parent. Intra-group transactions and balances have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Where required, the accounting policies of subsidiaries have been amended to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group. Note 5 provides a complete list of consolidated subsidiaries in line with the participating interest, held by the Group. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date the Group acquires control over them and they cease to be consolidated at the date of termination of this control. Non-controlling interests constitute the component of equity of a subsidiary not directly or indirectly attributable to the parent. Losses relating to non-controlling interests (minority interests) of a subsidiary may exceed the rights of non- controlling interests in the subsidiary's equity. Gains or losses and each component of other comprehensive income are accounted for both by the owners of the parent and the non-controlling interests, even if, as a result, such non-controlling interests present deficit. (a) Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are all the companies, which the Parent has the power to control directly or indirectly through other subsidiaries and they are fully consolidated (full consolidation). The Company has and exercises control through its ownership of most the subsidiaries’ voting rights. To define the control, the following conditions are examined, as recorded in IFRS 10: 1. The parent company has authority over the investee since it can direct the related (operational and financial) activities. This is achieved through appointing most of the members of the Board of Directors and the directors of the subsidiary by the Management of the parent. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 155 2. The parent company holds rights with variable returns from its investment in the subsidiary. Other non- controlled investments are greatly dispersed and, therefore, cannot materially influence decision-making. 3. The parent company may exercise its authority over the subsidiary to influence the amount of its returns. This is the result of decision-making on subsidiary’s related matters through controlling the decision-making bodies (Board of Directors and Directors). Changes in ownership interest in a subsidiary • In case of changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary, it is examined whether the changes result in a loss of control or not. • Changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions (i.e. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners). In such circumstances, the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests shall be adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received shall be recognized directly in equity. • In case the parents’ ownership interest changes in such a way that there is loss of control, then the parent shall record the necessary accounting entries and recognize the result from the sale (derecognition of the assets, goodwill, and liabilities of the subsidiary as of the date of loss of control, derecognition of the book value of non-controlling interests, determination of the result from the sale). • When determining the sale result, any amount previously recognized in other comprehensive income in respect of that company is accounted for using the same method as would be applied by the Group in the event of direct sale of its assets or liabilities. That is to say, the amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to the income statement. Following loss of control of a subsidiary, any investment in the former subsidiary is recognized according to the provisions of IFRS 9. Investments in subsidiaries in the separate financial statements Investments of the parent in its consolidated subsidiaries are measured at acquisition cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Impairment test is carried out in accordance with the provisions of IAS 36. (b) Joint arrangements The Group applies IFRS 11 to all its joint arrangements. Under IFRS 11, joint arrangements are classified as joint operations or joint ventures, depending on the contractual rights and obligations of each investor. Jointly controlled entities are consolidated using the proportionate consolidation method (if it is a joint operation) or the equity method (if it is a joint venture). Joint operations: Joint operations are accounted for using the proportional consolidation method. In particular, the Group recognizes in the consolidated financial statements: (i) its assets (including its share in any of its assets it holds jointly), (ii) its liabilities (including its share of any jointly held liabilities), (iii) it shares in the proceeds of the sale from disposal of joint venture, and (iv) its expenses (including its share in any jointly incurred expenses). Essentially, these are tax joint operations, which do not constitute a separate entity within the framework of the IFRS. Their assets and liabilities are incorporated according to the effective proportions in the financial statements of the Company or its subsidiaries. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 156 Joint ventures: Joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method, under which participating interests in joint ventures are initially recognized at cost and subsequently readjusted in compliance with the Group's share of the profits (or losses) and other comprehensive income of the joint ventures. Under the joint venture model, joint venture schemes are the ones in which members have rights over the net assets of the investments and are liable up to the extent of their contribution to the capital of the company. If the Group's participating interest in joint venture losses exceeds the value of the participating interest, the Group discontinues recognizing further losses unless it has undertaken liabilities or has made payments on behalf of the joint venture. Allocation of operating results and other comprehensive results is proportional to the participating interest. Unrealized gains on transactions between the Group and joint ventures are eliminated according to the Group's participating interest in joint ventures. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless there is evidence of the transaction for impairment of the transferred asset. Consolidation considers the percentage held by the Group, effective as at consolidation date. The structure of the business scheme is the key and determining factor in defining accounting treatment. The accounting policies of jointly controlled entities are consistent with those adopted and applied by the Group. The date of preparation of the financial statements of jointly controlled entities coincides with that of the parent Company. Investments in jointly controlled operations in the separate financial statements Investments of the parent in joint operations are included in the separate financial statements in proportion. Assets and liabilities are proportionally incorporated in the Company's financial statements. Investments in joint ventures in the separate financial statements Investments of the parent in joint ventures are measured at acquisition cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Impairment test is carried out in accordance with the provisions of IAS 36. (c) Associates Associates are entities over which the Group exercises significant influence but does not exercise control. The Group's investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method. The assumptions used by the Group suggest that holding participating interest of between 20% and 50% of a company's voting rights implies a significant influence over the investee unless it can be clearly demonstrated that this is not the case. Investments in associates are initially recognized at acquisition cost and then consolidated using the equity method. According to this method, investments in associates are recognized at acquisition cost less any changes in the Group's participating interest in Equity after the initial acquisition date, less any provisions for impairment of those participating interests’ value. Consolidated statement of comprehensive income includes the proportion of the Group in the total income of associates. If the Group's participating interest in an Associate's loss exceeds the value of the participating interest, the Group discontinues recognizing further losses unless it has settled liabilities or made payments on the part of the affiliate and, in general, settled the payments arising from the shareholding. If the associate subsequently produces profits, the investor starts once again recognizing its share of profits only if its share of profits equals the share of losses it had not recognized. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 157 Unrealized gains on transactions between the Group and associates are eliminated according to the Group's participating interest in associates. Unrealized losses are eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of impairment of the transferred asset. Accounting policies followed by associates do not differ from those used by the Group and the date of preparation of the financial statements of associates is the same as that of the parent. Investments in associates in the separate financial statements Investments of the parent in consolidated associates are measured at acquisition cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Impairment test is carried out in accordance with the provisions of IAS 36. 4.2 Foreign currency conversion Νόμισμα λειτουργίας και παρουσίασης Functional and reporting currency The consolidated financial statements are presented in Euro, which is the functional currency of the Group’s as well as the Parent Company’s reporting currency. Transactions and balances in Foreign Currency Foreign currency transactions are converted into the functional currency by using the exchange rates applicable on the date when the said transactions were performed. The monetary assets and liabilities which are denominated in foreign currency are converted into the Group’s functional currency on the Statement of Financial Position reporting date using the prevailing exchange rate on that day. Any gains or losses due to translation differences that result from the settlement of such transactions during the period, as well as from the conversion of monetary assets denominated in foreign currency based on the prevailing exchange rates on the Statement of Financial Position reporting date, are recognized in the Income Statement. Non-monetary assets which are denominated in foreign currency, and which are measured at fair value are converted into the Group’s functional currency using the prevailing exchange rate on the date of their fair value measurement. The FX translation differences from non-monetary items measured at fair value are considered as part of the fair value and thus are recorded in the same account as the fair value differences. Gains or losses arising from transactions in foreign currency as well as from the end of period valuation of monetary assets, denominated in foreign currency, which meet the criteria for cash flow hedges are recognized in other comprehensive income and cumulatively in equity. Foreign operations The functional currency of the Group’s foreign subsidiaries is the official currency of the country in which every subsidiary operates. For the preparation of consolidated financial statements, assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries, including goodwill and fair value adjustments due to business combinations, are translated into Euro at the exchange rates effective at the Statement of Financial Position reporting sate. Revenue and expenses are translated into the presentation currency of the Group based on the average exchange rates for the reported period. Any differences arising from this procedure are charged/(credited) to the balance sheet of foreign currency subsidiaries' transition balance sheet reserves, equity, and recognized in other comprehensive income in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Upon the disposal, write off or derecognition of a foreign subsidiary, the above reserves are transferred to profit or loss for the period. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 158 4.3 Operating segments The Company’s BoD is the main corporate body responsible for business decision-making. The BoD reviews all the internal financial reports in order to assess the Company’s and Group’s performance and resolve upon the allocation of resources. The Management has set the operating segments based on the said internal reports. The BoD uses different criteria in order to assess the Group’s operations, which vary according to the nature of every segment, taking into consideration the risks involved and their cash requirements. TERNA ENERGY’s operating segments are defined as the segments in which the Group operates and on which the Group’s management information systems are based (please refer to Note 6). 4.4 Intangible assets The Group’s intangible assets pertain to forestry use licenses where wind farms have been located, acquired licenses for Wind Farms operations, rights to invoice the other services arising PPPs concession contacts (see Note 4.11) and acquired software. Upon initial recognition, the intangible assets acquired separately are recorded at acquisition cost. Intangible assets acquired as part of business combinations are recognized at fair value on the acquisition date. Following initial recognition, the intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any impairment loss. Amortization is recorded based on the straight-line method during the useful life of the said assets. All the Group's intangible assets have a definite useful life. The period and method of amortization are reviewed at least at the end of every annual reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life of each intangible asset are accounted for as a change in accounting estimates. Methods of amortization and useful lives of the Group's intangible assets can be summarized as follows: Category Methods of amortization Useful life in years Software Fixed 3 Generation and energy units installation and operation licenses Fixed 25 Forestry plots use rights Fixed 25-27 Intangible assets recognized due to Concession arrangements (Note 4.11) Fixed 25 Gains or losses arising from the write-off due to disposal of an intangible asset are calculated as the difference between the net revenue from the disposal and the current value of the asset and are recognized in the profit or loss of the period. a) Software Maintenance of software programs is recognized as an expense when the expense is realized. On the contrary, the costs incurred for improving or prolonging the return of software programs beyond their initial technical specifications, or respectively the costs incurred for the modification of the software, are incorporated in the acquisition cost of the intangible asset, only if requirements of IAS 38 “Intangible assets” apply. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 159 (b) Forestry plots use rights The value of the land use rights of the forestry land where the Wind Farms are installed includes the acquisition cost of these items less the amount of accumulated amortization and any impairment of their value. (c) Generation and energy units installation and operation licenses Various types of licenses held by the Group enable it to construct energy units or generate the right to produce and sell energy. Effective market conditions provide the required indications regarding the recoverable amount of these licenses. Upon acquisition, the Group recognizes these licenses as intangible assets at fair value and then measures them applying the cost model, according to which the asset is measured at cost (which is the acquisition fair value) less accumulated amortization and any accumulated provisions for impairment. Amortization is carried out on a straight-line basis over the useful life of those assets, which is 25 years for electricity generation from renewable energy sources. The amortization of the acquired licenses starts on the date of completion of the construction of each park and the date of electrification of the wind parks. Regarding the impairment tests, please refer to Note 4.7. 4.5 Property, plant, and equipment Tangible fixed assets are recognized in the financial statements at acquisition values, less accumulated depreciation and any potential impairment losses. The acquisition cost includes all directly reimbursable costs incurred for the acquisition of these assets. Subsequent expenses are recorded as an increase in the book value of tangible assets or as a separate asset only to the extent that the said expenses increase the future economic benefits, expected to arise from the use of the fixed asset and that their cost can be measured reliably. Repair and maintenance cost is recognized in the Income Statement when incurred. Tangible assets are written off when they are sold or withdrawn or when no further economic benefits are expected from their ongoing use. Gains and losses, arising from the write-off of tangible fixed assets, are included in the income statement for the year in which the asset is written off. Assets under construction include fixed assets under construction and are carried at cost. Assets under construction are not depreciated until the fixed asset is settled and put into operation. Depreciation of tangible fixed assets (excluding land, which is not depreciated) is calculated based on the straight-line method over their estimated useful life as follows: Property, plant and equipment Useful life (in years) Building and technical works 8 – 30 Machinery and technical installations 3 – 25 Vehicles 5 – 12 TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 160 Furniture and fixtures 3 – 12 Useful life of tangible fixed assets is reviewed at least at the end of every FY. When the book values of the tangible fixed assets are higher than their recoverable value, then the difference (impairment) is recognized directly as an expense in the Income Statement. Upon sale of tangible assets, the differences between the received consideration and their book value are recognized as profits or losses in the Income Statement. Interest accrued on loans specifically or generally issued in order to finance the construction of tangible fixed assets is capitalized in the year when incurred, during the tangible asset’s construction period, provided that the recognition criteria are met (please refer to Note 10). 4.6 Borrowing costs Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which will require considerable time until the assets are ready for the proposed use or disposal, are added to the acquisition cost of those assets until the assets are ready for the proposed use or disposal. In other cases, the borrowing costs burden gains or losses of the period when incurred. 4.7 Impairment of non-current assets (intangible and tangible assets/investments in consolidated companies) In respect of tangible and intangible fixed assets subject to amortization/depreciation, an impairment test is performed when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may no longer be recoverable. When the net book value of tangible and intangible fixed assets exceeds their recoverable amount, then the excess amount relates to an impairment loss and is recognized directly as an expense in the income statement. Respectively, financial assets that are subject to impairment testing (if the relative indications are effective) are the assets measured at acquisition cost or under equity method (investments in subsidiaries and associates). The recoverable amount of investments in subsidiaries and associates is determined in the same way as that in respect of non-financial assets. For the purpose of impairment test, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which cash flows can be separately identified. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of the asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purpose of calculating value in use, Management estimates the future cash flows from the asset or cash-generating unit and selects the appropriate discount rate in order to calculate the present value of future cash flows. Impairment loss is recognized for the amount, by which the book value of an asset or a Cash Generating Unit exceeds their recoverable amount, which is the highest between fair value less sale costs and value in use. In order to define value in use, the Management defines the estimated cash flows for every Cash Generating Unit, defining a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the current value of these cash flows. Discount factors are determined individually for every Cash Generating Unit and reflect the corresponding risk data, determined by the Management for every one of them. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 161 Further assumptions are made that prevail in the energy market. The period, reviewed by the management exceeds five years - the period that is encouraged by IAS 36, since especially as for renewable energy units, even a longer period will be judged to be quite satisfactory. Impairment losses of Cash Generating units first reduce the book value of goodwill allocated to them. Residual impairment losses are charged pro rata to the other assets of the particular Cash Generating Unit. With the exception of goodwill, all assets are subsequently reviewed for indications that their previously recognized impairment loss is no longer effective. An impairment loss is reversed if the recoverable amount of a Cash Generating unit exceeds its book value. In such a case, the increased book value of the asset will not exceed the book value that would have been determined (net depreciation), if no impairment loss had been recognized, for the asset in the previous years. 4.8 Inventory Inventory includes spare parts and raw and auxiliary materials of Wind Farms. Inventory items are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost of raw material, semi-finished and finished products is determined using the weighted average cost method. Appropriate provisions are made for obsolete inventory, if deemed necessary. Impairment of inventory at net realizable value and other losses from inventory are recognized in the income statement for the period when incurred. 4.9 Cash and cash quivalent Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, sight deposits, term deposits, bank overdrafts and other highly liquid investments that are directly convertible into particular amounts of cash equivalents which are not subject to significant risk of change in value. The Group regards term deposits and other highly liquid investments of less than three months maturity as cash available, as well as term deposits over three months maturity for which it has the right to early liquidation without loss of capital. For the purposes of preparing the Statements of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in hand, bank deposits as well as cash equivalents as defined above. The Group’s restricted deposits, irrespective of the nature of the restrictions, are not included in cash and cash equivalents but are classified in the item "Prepayments and other receivables" (please refer to Note 19). 4.10 Financial instruments 4.10.1 Recognition and derecognition Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in the Statement of Financial Position when and only when the Group becomes a party to the financial instrument. The Group ceases to recognize a financial asset when and only when the contractual rights to the cash flows of the financial asset expire or when the financial asset is transferred and all the risks and benefits, associated with TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 162 the particular financial asset, are substantially transferred. A financial liability is derecognized from the Statement of Financial Position when, and only when, it is repaid - that is, when the commitment set out in the contract is fulfilled, canceled or expires. 4.10.2 Classification and initial recognition of financial assets Except for trade receivables that do not include a significant finance item and are measured at the transaction price in accordance with IFRS 15, other financial assets are initially measured at fair value by adding the relevant transaction cost except in the case of financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets, except those defined as effective hedging instruments, are classified into the following categories: • Financial assets at amortized cost, • Financial assets at fair value through profit & loss, and • Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income without recycling cumulative profit and losses on derecognition (equity instruments) Classification of every asset is defined according to: • the Group's business model regarding management of financial assets, and • the characteristics of their conventional cash flows. All income and expenses related to financial assets recognized in the Statement of Comprehensive Income are included in the items "Other financial results", "Financial expenses" and "Financial income", except for the impairment of trade receivables included in operating results. 4.10.3 Subsequent measurement of financial assets Financial assets at amortized cost A financial asset is measured at amortized cost when the following conditions are met: I. financial asset management business model includes holding the asset for the purposes of collecting contractual cash flows, II. contractual cash flows of the financial asset consist exclusively of repayment of capital and interest on the outstanding balance (“SPPI” criterion). Following the initial recognition, these financial assets are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. In cases where the discount effect is not significant, the discount is omitted. The amortized cost measured category includes non-derivative financial assets such as loans and receivables with fixed or pre-determined payments that are not traded on an active market, as well as cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables. Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for sale, financial assets designated at initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss, or financial assets that are required to be measured at fair value. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 163 Financial assets are classified as held for sale if they are acquired for sale or repurchase in the near future. Derivatives, including embedded derivatives, are also classified as held for sale, unless defined as effective hedging instruments. Financial assets with cash flows that are not only capital and interest payments are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business model. Financial assets classified at fair value through total income (equity interests) In accordance with the relevant provisions of IFRS 9, at initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably choose to present in other results directly in equity the subsequent changes in the fair value of an equity investment that is not held for sale. Gains or losses from these financial assets are never recycled to the income statement. Dividends are recognized as other income in the income statement when the payment entitlement has been proved, unless the Group benefits from such income as a recovery of part of the cost of the financial asset - then such profit is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income. Equity interests designated at fair value through total income are not subject to an impairment test. This option is effective for every equity interest separately. The Group has chosen to classify investments in this category (please refer to Note 14). 4.10.4 Impairment of financial assets Adoption of IFRS 9 led to a change in the accounting treatment of impairment losses for financial assets, as it replaced the treatment effective under IAS 39 for recognition of realized losses with recognition of expected credit losses. Impairment is defined in IFRS 9 as an Expected Credit Loss (ECL), which is the difference between the contractual cash flows attributable to the holder of a particular financial asset and the cash flows expected to be recovered, i.e. cash deficit arising from default events, discounted approximately at the initial effective interest rate of the asset. The Group and the Company recognize provisions for impairment for expected credit losses for all financial assets except those measured at fair value through profit or loss. The objective of provisions for impairment under IFRS 9 is to recognize the expected credit losses over the life of a financial instrument whose credit risk has increased since initial recognition, regardless of whether the assessment is made at a collective or individual level, using all the information that can be collected on the basis of both historical and present data, as well as data relating to reasonable future estimates of the financial position of customers and the economic environment. To facilitate implementation of this approach, a distinction is made among: • financial assets whose credit risk has not deteriorated significantly since initial recognition or which have a low credit risk at the reporting date (Stage 1) and for which the expected credit loss is recognized for the following 12 months, • financial assets whose credit risk has deteriorated significantly since initial recognition, and which have no low credit risk (Stage 2). For these financial assets, the expected credit loss is recognized up to their maturity. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 164 • financial assets for which there is objective evidence of impairment at the reporting date (Stage 3) and for which the expected credit loss is recognized up to maturity. Trade receivables, other receivables, and receivables from contracts with customers The Group and the Company apply the simplified approach, stated in IFRS 9 to trade and other receivables as well as to receivables from on construction contracts and receivables from leases, calculating the expected credit losses over the life of the above items. In this case, the expected credit losses represent the expected shortfalls in the contractual cash flows, considering the possibility of default at any point during the life of the financial instrument. While calculating the expected credit losses, the Group uses a provisioning matrix, grouping the above financial instruments based on the nature and maturity of the balances and taking into account available historical data in relation to the debtors, adjusted for future factors in relation to the debtors and the economic environment. Further analysis is presented in Notes 18, 19 and 20. 4.10.5 Classification and measurement of financial liabilities As the accounting requirements for financial liabilities remained broadly similar to those set in IAS 39, the Group's accounting policies regarding financial liabilities were not affected by the adoption of IFRS 9. The Group's financial liabilities include mainly borrowings, suppliers and other liabilities, as well as derivative financial instruments. Financial liabilities are initially recognized at cost, which is the fair value of the consideration received apart from borrowing costs. After initial recognition, financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with the exception of derivatives that are subsequently measured at fair value with changes recognized in the income statement (except derivatives that operate as hedging instruments, see Note 4.10.6). In particular: (i) Loan liabilities The Group's loan liabilities are initially recognized at cost, which reflects the fair value of the amounts receivable less the relative costs directly attributable to them, where they are significant. After initial recognition, interest bearing loans are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account issuing expenses and the difference between the initial amount and the maturity amount. Gains and losses are recognized in the income statement when the liabilities are derecognized or impaired through the amortization procedures. (ii) Trade and other liabilities Balances of suppliers and other liabilities are initially recognized at their fair value and are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Trade and other short-term liabilities are not interest-bearing accounts and are usually settled on the basis of the agreed credits. (iii) Equity instruments having a substance of financial liabilities TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 165 The Group had entered during the previous years into agreements with "Tax Equity Investors" investors in the USΑ. According to these agreements, cash flows and tax benefits generated by wind farms are contractually distributed amongst investors (Tax Equity Investors, hereinafter "TEI") and the Group. Tax benefits include Production Tax Credits (PTCs) and accelerated depreciation. In fact, based on these figures, TEIs acquire a form of participation in the scheme by paying cash and agreeing on the expected return (estimated internal degree of return) that they will achieve during the period in which wind farms produce these tax benefits. Expected return is calculated based on the total expected benefit that Tax Equity Investors will receive and includes the value of PTCs of distributed taxable income or loss and cash proceeds. Control and management of these wind farms according to the provisions of IFRS 10 falls within the responsibility of the Group and until 30/06/2021 they were fully consolidated in its financial statements using the full consolidation method (see Note 7.1). The initial investment of TEIs is initially recognized at fair value in the account “Equity instruments having a substance of financial liabilities” and then measured at amortized cost. This financial liability is reduced by the value of tax benefits and cash distributions to Tax Equity Investors, as these distributions are contractually defined during the period in which the TEI is to achieve its expected return. The value of accelerated depreciation is recognized as "Amortization of tax benefits" on a pro-rata basis according to the estimated period of the investor's stay in the investment scheme. The value of the "PTCs" transferred to the investor is recognized when they are generated by the project, in return for turnover. The financial liability is increased by a financial expense determined by the balance of liabilities and the effective interest rate resulting from the discounted total cash inflows (TEI initial investment) and expected outflows (distribution of cash flows and tax benefits to the TEI) over the contract duration, as calculated on the date of payment of the initial investment by TEI. There are no contractual obligations of TERNA ENERGY Group and its subsidiaries to provide any form of financial assistance in case of financial difficulty or any form of failure to fulfill the obligations of TERNA ENERGY USA Holding Corporation, including contractual obligations to the TEI. The main features of these transactions are as follows: • Irrespective of the shareholding held by the counterparties, the Group maintains control over the wind farms, according to the provisions of IFRS 10, which are, therefore, fully consolidated in the Group's financial statements under full consolidated method. • Counterparties receive a significant component of tax losses and PTCs generated by wind farms, as well as a component of cash flows, until they achieve a predetermined (at the start of investment) rate of a non- guarantee return. • Counterparties remain investors in wind farms until they have achieved a predetermined return on their investment. • When the return on the investment of the counterparties reaches the predetermined level, the Group has the option to redeem the counterparty's rights to the return on the investment. • The return on the investment of the counterparties depends solely on the performance of wind farms. Although the Group undertakes the obligation to operate these wind farms in the best possible way and to take all the appropriate measures for their sound operation, it is not obliged to pay cash to the counterparties in excess of what is required in order to achieve the predetermined non‐guarantee return on their investment. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 166 After the date when TEI has achieved its contractually agreed performance and if the Group decides not to acquire the rights of TEI, TEI still maintains an insignificant percentage of the wind farm's return for the remaining contractual maturity. The Group, based on the substance of these transactions and according to IFRS 10 and IAS 32, had classified the initial investment of the counterparty as a "financial liability" in the consolidated statement of financial position. The financial liability is measured at net book value using the effective interest method. This liability is reduced through the cash distribution received by TEI and depending on the terms of the contract and the value of the tax benefits. As at 31/12/2021, there are no Equity instruments having a substance of financial liabilities assimilated to financial liabilities for the Group, as on 30/06/2021, the Group lost control and de-privatized the subsidiaries of the TERNA DEN LLC Sub-Group, which also own operate the three (3) Wind Farms in Texas USA (see Note 7.1 and 28). 4.10.6 Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting The Group's risk management policies are in line with the provisions of the standard IFRS 9 and hedge accounting is being applied. The Group's risk management policies are in line with the provisions of the new standard and hedge accounting continues to apply. In the context of risk management, the Group uses: - derivative financial instruments for the exchange of interest rates to hedge the risks associated with the future fluctuation of variable loan interest rates, - derivative financial instruments to hedge the risk of change in electricity prices (options, forward contracts for the sale of electricity) - derivative financial instruments to hedge the risks associated with the future fluctuation of variable income. These derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at their fair value at the date of the contract and are subsequently measured at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of financial derivative instruments are recognized at every reporting date either in the income statement or in other comprehensive income, depending on the extent, to which the derivative financial instrument meets the requirements of hedge accounting and, if so, according to the nature of the hedging object. On the transaction date, the Group records the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedging item, as well as the risk management objective and risk hedging transaction strategy. The Group also records both - when creating the hedging transaction and afterwards – the extent to which the instruments used in these changes are effective in offsetting fluctuations in the cash flows of hedging items. Derivative financial products are measured at fair value at the reporting date and the changes are recognized in the income statement. The fair value of these derivatives is determined primarily on a market value and is confirmed by the counterparty credit institutions. Exceptions are made regarding the derivatives that act as hedging instruments in cash flow hedges, for which special accounting is required. A hedging relationship is appropriate for hedge accounting when all the following criteria are met: TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 167 • the hedging relationship includes only eligible hedging instruments and eligible hedged items. • at the inception of the hedging relationship there is a formal determination and documentation of the hedging relationship and the entity's risk management objective and its hedging strategy. The documentation includes determination of the hedging instrument, the hedged item, the nature of the hedged risk, and the manner in which the entity will assess whether the hedging relationship meets the effectiveness requirements (including an analysis of the sources of inefficiency of the hedge and how determination of the hedging factor). • The hedging relationship covers all the following efficiency requirements: (a) there is an financial relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument, (b) the effect of the credit risk does not override the changes in value arising from this financial relationship, and (c) the hedging rate of the hedging relationship is the same resulting from the amount of hedged item actually hedged by the entity and the amount of the hedging instrument the entity actually uses to offset this amount of hedging item. Future cash flows hedging The component of changes in fair value that is attributable to effective risk hedging is recognized in equity. Any gain or loss arising from changes in fair value attributable to non-effective risk hedging is recognized directly in the statement of comprehensive income in the item "Earnings from financial instruments measured at fair value". Cumulative amounts in equity are recycled through the Statement of Comprehensive Income to the income statement (from other comprehensive income to the income statement) in the periods in which the hedged item affects the income statement (when the projected hedged transaction is taking place). Hedge accountancy is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or when the hedge no longer meets the hedge accountancy criteria. The cumulative amount of gains or losses recognized directly in equity until that date remains in the reserves until the hedged item affects the Statement of Comprehensive Income. In the event that a hedged transaction is no longer expected to be realized, the net accumulated gains or losses recorded in the reserves are directly transferred to the Statement of Comprehensive Income. 4.10.7 Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is recorded the Statement of Financial Position only if there is the present legal right to offset the recognized amounts and the entity intends to settle them on a net basis or to require the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 4.11 Service concession agreements Under the terms of the contracts, the operator acts as a service provider. The operator constructs or upgrades an infrastructure (manufacturing or upgrading services) used to provide a utility service and deals with the operation and maintenance of that infrastructure (operation services) for a specified period of time. According to IFRS, such infrastructure is recognized as a financial asset or as an intangible asset, depending on the contractually agreed terms. The Group companies recognize both - an intangible asset from the concession and a financial asset (bifurcated model) - or recognize a financial asset only. Intangible Assets TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 168 The Group companies operating as concessionaires recognize an intangible asset and an income to the extent that they acquire the right to charge the users of utilities. Revenue recognition is based on the completion rate method. Furthermore, the intangible asset is amortized on the basis of the time of the concession and an impairment test, while the revenues from the infrastructure users are recognized on the accrual basis. For more information on the concession of right, see Note 8. Financial asset (Financial contribution of the State) The Group companies that act as concessionaires recognize a financial asset as they have an unconditional contractual right to receive cash or other financial asset from the grantor for the construction services. In the case of concessions, the concessionaire has an unconditional right to receive cash if the concessioner contractually guarantees to pay to the concessionaire: (i) specific or fixed amounts, or (ii) the deficit which may arise between the amounts received by the users of the public service and the specific or fixed amount provided for in the Concession Agreement. The Group recognizes the Financial Contribution of the State as a financial asset under the provisions of IFRIC 12 "Service Concession Arrangements". In particular, the Group recognizes a financial asset receivable and income based on the rate of completion method and the asset is measured at amortized cost less any impairment losses. More information is provided in Note 16. 4.12 Employee benefits Short-term benefits: Short-term employee benefits (except for termination of employment benefits) in cash and in kind are recognized as an expense when deemed accrued. Any unpaid amount is recorded as a liability, whereas in case the amount already paid exceeds the benefits’ amount, the entity identifies the excessive amount as an asset (prepaid expense) only to the extent that the prepayment shall lead to a future payments’ reduction or refund. Retirement Benefits: Benefits following termination of employment include lump-sum severance grants, pensions and other benefits paid to employees after termination of employment in exchange for their service. The Group’s liabilities for retirement benefits cover both defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans. The defined contribution plan’s accrued cost is recognized as an expense in the period to which it relates. Pension plans adopted by the Group are partly financed through payments to insurance companies or state social security funds. a) Defined Contribution Plan Defined contribution plans pertain to contribution payment to Social Security Organizations and therefore, the Group does not have any legal obligation in case the Fund is incapable of paying a pension to the insured person. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 169 The employer’s obligation is limited to paying the employer’s contributions to the Funds. The payable contribution by the Group in a defined contribution plan is identified as a liability after the deduction of the paid contribution, while accrued contributions are recognized as expenses in the income statement. (b) Defined Benefit Plan (non-funded) Under Laws 2112/20 and 4093/2012, the Company must pay compensation to its employees upon their dismissal or retirement. The amount of compensation paid depends on the years of service, the level of wages and the way of leaving service (dismissal or retirement). The establishment of the right to participate in these plans is carried out through the distribution of benefits in the last 16 years until the date of retirement of employees following the scale provided by Law 4093/2012. The liability recognized in the Statement of Financial Position for defined benefit plans is the present value of the liability for the defined benefit less the plan assets’ fair value (reserves from payments to an insurance company), the changes deriving from any actuarial profit or loss and the previous service cost. The defined benefit commitment is calculated on an annual basis by an independent actuary through the use of the projected unit credit method. Regarding FY 2021, the selected interest rate follows the tendency of European Bonds of 10year maturity as at December 31, 2021, which is regarded as consistent with the provisions of IAS 19, i.e. is based on bonds corresponding to the currency and the estimated term relative to employee benefits as well as appropriate for long-term provisions. A defined benefit plan establishes, based on various parameters, such as age, years of service and salary, the specific obligations for payable benefits. Provisions for the period are included in the relative staff costs in the accompanying separate and consolidated Income Statements and comprise the current and past service cost, the relative financial cost, the actuarial gains or losses and potentially arising additional charges. Regarding unrecognized actuarial gains or losses, the revised IAS 19 is applied, which includes a number of changes to accounting treatment of defined benefit plans, including ad follows: i) recognition of actuarial gains / losses in other comprehensive income and their permanent exclusion from the Income Statement, ii) non-recognition of the expected returns on the plan investment in the Income Statement but recognition of the relative interest on net liability / ( asset ) of the benefits calculated based on the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation, iii) recognition of past service cost in the Income Statement at the earliest between the plan modification date or when the relative restructuring or terminal provision are recognized, other changes including new disclosures, such as quantitative sensitivity analysis. 4.13 Leases 4.13.1 Recognition and initial measurement of the right-of-use asset At the lease period commencement date, the Group recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, measuring the right-of-use asset at cost. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 170 The cost of the right-of-use asset comprises: • the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability (see below), • any lease payments made on or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received, • the initial direct costs incurred by the lessee, and • an estimate of costs to be incurred by the Group in dismantling and removing the underlying asset, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease. The Group undertakes the obligation for those costs either at the lease period commencement date or as a consequence of having used the leased asset during a particular period. 4.13.2 Initial measurement of the lease liability At the lease period commencement date, the Group measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. When the interest rate implicit in the lease can be readily determined, the lease payments shall be discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group shall use the Group’s incremental borrowing rate. At the lease period commencement date, the lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following payments for the right-of-use asset during the lease term that are not paid at the lease commencement date: i. fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, ii. any variable lease payments that depend on the future change in index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the lease period commencement date iii. amounts expected to be payable by the Group under residual value guarantees, iv. the exercise price of a purchase option if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that option and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising an option to terminate the lease. 4.13.3 Subsequent measurement Subsequent measurement of the right-of-use asset After the lease period commencement date, the Group measures the right-of-use asset applying a cost model. The Group measures the right-of-use asset at cost: - less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses, and - adjusted for any subsequent measurement of the lease liability. The Group applies the requirements set in IAS 16 regarding the depreciation of the right-of-use asset, which it reviews for potential impairment. Subsequent measurement of the lease liability After the lease period commencement date, the Group measures the lease liability by: TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 171 i. increasing the carrying amount to reflect financial cost on the lease liability, ii. reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made, and iii. remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect any lease reassessment or modification. Financial cost of a lease liability is allocated over the lease term in such a way that it results in a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. After the lease period commencement date, the Group recognizes in profit or loss, (unless the costs are included in the carrying amount of another asset applying other applicable Standards), both: i. financial cost of the lease liability, and i) variable lease payments not included in the measurement of the lease liability in the period in which the event or condition that triggers those payments occurs. 4.14 Government grants Government grants are recognized at fair value when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be collected, and the Group will comply with all relevant conditions. Government grants related to the grants for tangible fixed assets are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be collected, and all relevant conditions will be met. These grants are recognized as deferred income and are transferred to the income statement during the period based on the expected useful life of the asset, for which the grant was received. Government grants, relating to expenses, are recorded in transit accounts and recognized in the income statement over the period necessary to balance the expenses they are intended to compensate. 4.15 Provisions, Contingent Assets and Liabilities Provisions are recognized when the Group has present legal or imputed liabilities as a result of past events; their settlement is possible through resources’ outflow and the exact liability amount can be reliably estimated. The provisions are reviewed on the reporting date of the Financial Statements and are reviewed and adjusted accordingly on evert financial statements reporting date to reflect the present value of the expense expected for the settlement of the liability. When the effect of the time value of money is significant, the provision is calculated as the present value of the expenses expected to be incurred in order to settle this liability. If it is no longer probable that an outflow will be required in order to settle a liability for which a provision has been made, then it is reversed. In cases where the outflow of economic resources due to current commitments is considered improbable or the provision amount cannot be reliably estimated, no liability is recognized in the financial statements. Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements but are disclosed unless the probability of an outflow of resources incorporating financial benefits is minimal. Potential inflows from economic benefits for the Group which do not meet the criteria of an asset are regarded as contingent assets and are disclosed when the inflow of the economic benefits is probable. Provisions for rehabilitation of natural landscape Concerning restoration of natural landscapes, the Group recognizes the provisions made by the entities of the Group's energy sector for decommissioning wind turbines from Wind Farms and restoring the surrounding area. Decommissioning and remediation provisions reflect the present value at the reporting date of the estimated cost less the estimated residual value of the recoverable materials. Provisions are reviewed at every reporting date of the Statement of Financial Position and are adjusted in order to reflect the present value of the expense, TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 172 expected to be disbursed for settling the lability regarding decommissioning and remediation. The related provision is recognized as an increase in the acquisition cost of wind turbines and is depreciated on a straight- line basis over the 25-year term of the energy production contract. Amortization and disposal of the capitalized decommissioning and restoration costs is included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income together with depreciation of Wind Farms. Any changes in estimates with respect to the estimated cost or the discount rate are added to or deducted from, respectively, the cost of the asset. The effect of discounting the estimated cost is recognized in the income statement as an interest expense. 4.16 Revenue IFRS 15 established the core principle by applying the following steps for identifying revenue from contracts with customers: 1. Identify the contract(s) with a customer. 2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract. 3. Determine the transaction price. 4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract. 5. Recognise revenue when (or as) the Group satisfies a performance obligation Revenue is recognized at the amount by which an entity expects to have in exchange for the transfer of the goods or services to a counterparty. When assigning a contract, the accounting treatment us also defined regarding the additional costs and the direct costs required to complete the contract. Revenue is defined as the amount that an entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it has transferred to a customer. If the promised consideration in a contract includes a variable amount, the entity estimates the consideration amount it would be entitled versus the transfer of the promised goods or services to customer. The consideration amount may vary due to discounts, price subsidies, refunds, credits, price reductions, incentives, additional performance benefits, sanctions or other similar items. The promised consideration may also change if the entity's entitlement to the consideration depends on the occurrence or non-occurrence of a future event. For example, a consideration amount will be variable if the product has been sold with a refund option or if a fixed amount promise has been given as an additional performance benefit to achieve a specific milestone. The volatility associated with the consideration promised by a customer may be expressly stated in the contract. An entity estimates the amount of the variable consideration using one of the following methods, whichever method it considers best suited to the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled: (a) Estimated value - the estimated value is equal to the sum of the probability-weighted amounts in a range of possible consideration amounts. Estimated value is an appropriate estimate of the variable amount if the entity has a large number of contracts with similar characteristics. b) Most probable amount - the most probable amount is the only most probable amount in a range of possible consideration amounts (i.e., the only likely outcome of the contract). The most probable amount is an appropriate estimate of the variable amount if the contract has only two possible outcomes (for example, the entity provides additional performance or not). TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 173 The Group and the Company recognize revenue, when it satisfies the performance of the contractual obligation by transferring the goods or services on the basis of this obligation. Acquisition of control by the client occurs when it has the ability to direct the use and to derive virtually all the economic benefits from this good or service. Control is transferred over a period or at a specific time. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized when the goods are transferred to the customer, usually upon delivery to the customer, and there is no obligation that could affect the acceptance of the good by the customer. Commitments for implementation performed over time The Group recognizes revenue for a performance obligation implemented over time only if it can reasonably measure its performance in full compliance with the obligation. The Group is not in a position to reasonably measure progress in meeting a performance obligation when it does not have the reliable information required to apply the appropriate method of measuring progress. In some cases (eg during the initial stages of a contract), the entity may not be able to reasonably measure the outcome of a performance obligation, but it at least expects to recover the costs incurred to meet it. In such cases, an entity shall recognize revenue only to the extent of the cost incurred until it is able to reasonably measure the outcome of the implementation obligation. Revenue from rendering services is recognized in the accounting period in which the services are provided and measured according to the nature of the services to be provided. The receivable from client is recognized when there is an unconditional right for the entity to receive the consideration for the contractual obligations performed to the client. A contractual asset is recognized when the Group or the Company has settled its liabilities to the counterparty before the latter has paid or before the payment is due, for example when the goods or services are transferred to the customer prior to the right of the Group or the Company to issue an invoice. The contractual obligation is recognized when the Group or the Company receives a consideration from the counterparty as an advance or when it reserves the right to a consideration which is postponed before the performance of the contractual obligations and transfer of goods or services. The contractual obligation is derecognized when the contract obligations are met and the revenue is recorded in the income statement. Commitments for implementation performed at a specific time When a commitment for implementation is not met over time (as outlined above), then the entity enforces the implementation commitment at a particular time. In determining when the client acquires control of a promised asset and the entity settles an implementation commitment, the entity examines the requirements for the acquisition control, as analytically recorded in IFRS 15. The main categories of revenue recognized from implementation commitments fulfilled over time for the Group are as follows: i) Revenue from contracts with customers related to construction operations It relates to revenue from contracts with customers and results from implementation commitments that are fulfilled over time. For the purpose of complying with IFRS, the proceeds from the construction activity are TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 174 accounted for progressively during construction, based on the input method of measurement in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers". The input method recognizes revenue based on the entity's efforts or inflows towards fulfilling an implementation commitment (for example, the resources consumed, the hours worked, the costs incurred the time spent or the hours of operation of the machines consumed) in relation to the total expected inputs to fulfil this implementation commitment. (ii) Sale of goods Revenue from the sale of goods, after deduction of sales discounts, sales incentives and related VAT, is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods are transferred to the buyer. (iii) Revenue from sale of Electric Energy It relates to revenue from contracts with customers and arises from implementation commitments that are fulfilled over time. Revenue from the Sale of Electric Energy is accounted for within the year it concerns. Under the preparation of the financial statements, revenue accrued unbilled, revenue from electricity purchased by DAPEEP or another client not yet invoiced are regarded as collectible revenue. Regarding the Group’s wind farms operating in the USA and selling electricity to specific US energy markets (ERCOT) at market prices, revenue from the sale of electricity is recognized on the basis of the amount of electricity delivered at market prices for transactions, where all the revenue recognition criteria are met. In order to reduce its exposure to changes in energy prices in these markets, the Group uses the derivative instruments described in Note 4.10.6 above. The proceeds from the liquidation of these derivatives are included in the proceeds from the sale of electricity. Regarding the derivatives that do not meet the cash flow hedge accounting criteria but which are nonetheless used to reduce exposure to the risk of a change in earnings, the Turnover also includes non-realized gains/losses from valuation. Renewable Energy Credits (Green Certificates) constitute an economic benefit achieved through the operation of a wind farm. Renewable Energy Credits are generated by the wind power generation of wind farms and can be sold either through Renewable Energy Credits’ organized markets or directly to individual buyers under contracts. As Renewable Energy Credits are generated they are classified as inventories recognized at fair value and the related revenue deferred until sale. When Renewable Energy Credits are sold, they are recognized as a component of revenue at fair market value. Gains and losses from the subsequent sale of RECs to third parties are also recognized as a component of revenue (Turnover). (iv) Revenue from tax benefits The value of tax benefits is recognized in the income statement. The value of tax losses attributable to Tax Equity Investor is recognized in other income for the year, on proportional basis in compliance with the estimated period, during which the investor remains in the investment scheme, while the value of Production Tax Credits (PTCs), associated with the annual energy production of a wind farm, is recognized every year on the basis of actual production for the benefit of turnover. As a result of the fact of the loss of control carried out on 30/06/2021 (see Notes 7.1 and 28), the above reported value of tax losses was transferred to the line "Results for the period from discontinued operations". TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 175 (v) Income from rentals The income in question pertains to revenue from contracts with customers and arises from implementation commitments that are fulfilled over time. Income from rentals (operating leases) is recognized using the straight- line method according to the terms of the lease. (vi) Dividends Dividends are accounted for when the right of recovery is finalized by the shareholders following the decision of the General Meeting of Shareholders. (vii) Interests Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. (viii) Revenue from concession contracts During the construction phase, the revenues are recognized gradually during the execution of the construction project, based on the method of measuring the progress based on inputs (imput method), according to the accounting policy of the Group for the recognition of revenues from construction contracts. During the operation stage, the revenue is recognized in the period in which the related services are provided by the Group. In case a concession agreement includes revenue for more than one service, the consideration is allocated to the different services based on the relative fair values of the services provided . 4.17 Income tax Income tax burden for the year consists of current tax, deferred tax and tax differences from previous years. Current Tax Current tax is calculated on the basis of the separate tax Statements of Financial Position of every company, included in the consolidated Financial Statements, according to the tax regulation effective in Greece or other tax frameworks under which the foreign subsidiaries operate. Expenditure on current income tax includes income tax that is based on the profits of each company as restated in its tax returns and provisions for additional taxes and is calculated according to the statutory or substantially statutory tax rates. Deferred Income Tax Deferred taxes are taxes or tax relief related to financial burdens or benefits accruing in the year but already been accounted for or to be accounted for by the tax authorities in different years. Deferred income tax is determined using the liability method, arising from the temporary differences between the carrying amount and the tax base of assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that, when the transaction took place, did not affect either the accounting or the tax profit or loss. Deferred income taxes are measured using the liability method in all temporary differences at the date of the financial statements between the tax base and the carrying amount of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 176 Deferred tax assets are measured at every reporting date of the financial statements and are reduced to the extent that it is unlikely that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which part or all of the deferred income tax assets may be used. Deferred tax assets and obligations are measured at the tax rates expected to be effective for the year in which the asset is incurred or the liability will be settled and are based on the tax rates (and tax laws) that are in effect or effectively in force as at the financial statements reporting date. In the event the time of reversing temporary differences cannot be clearly identified, the tax rate applicable on the next FY date of the Statement of Financial Position will be applied. Income tax related to items, recognized in other comprehensive income. is also recognized in other comprehensive income. 4.18 Earnings per share Basic earnings per share are calculated dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding the weighted average number of the common shares acquired by the Group as treasury shares. Earnings per share are calculated dividing the net profit attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. 4.19 Share capital, reserves and distribution of dividends Common registered shares are recorded as equity. Costs, directly attributable to a component of equity net of tax effect, are monitored as a deduction to the Balance of Retained Earnings in equity. Otherwise, this amount is recognized as an expense in the period in question. In cases when the Company or its subsidiaries acquire part of the Company's share capital (treasury shares), the amount paid, including any expense, net of tax, is deducted from equity until the shares are derecognized or sold. The number of treasury shares held by the Company does not reduce the number of shares in circulation but affects the number of shares included in the calculation of earnings per share. In particular, the reserves are divided into: Statutory reserves In compliance with the Greek Commercial Law, companies shall transfer at least 5% of their annual net profits to a statutory reserve until such reserve equals 1/3 of the paid-up share capital. This reserve cannot be distributed during the Company's operations. Development legislation reserves and other tax exempted reserves These reserves refer to profits not taxed at the applicable tax rate in accordance with the applicable tax framework in Greece and include reserves arising from taxable profits and pertaining to the company’s participation in development laws. These reserves will be taxable at the tax rate applicable at the time of their distribution to the shareholders or their conversion into share capital under certain circumstances. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 177 Cash flows risk hedging reserves The risk hedge reserve is used to record profits or losses on derivative financial products, which can be classified as future cash flow hedges and are recognized in other comprehensive income. Foreign currency translation differences from incorporation of foreign operations Foreign exchange differences arising on foreign currency translation are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other reserves. The cumulative amount is transferred to the income statement of the year when the amounts were transferred. Treasury shares reserves The Company has proceeded with successive acquisitions of treasury shares through implementing the approved share buy-back plan in accordance with article 49 of Law 4548/2018. The total value of these acquisitions is presented in reserves as a deduction from Equity. Other reserves Other reserves mainly include actuarial losses of pension schemes. The category of other reserves comprises: (1) Actuarial gains/(losses) from defined benefit pension schemes arising from (a) actual adjustments (the effect of differences between previous actuarial assumptions and those eventually occurring) and (b) changes in actuarial assumptions. (2) Changes in fair value of investments classified as equity investments. Dividends distributed to the Company's shareholders are recognized in the financial statements as a liability in the period in which the distribution proposal of the Management is approved by the Annual General Meeting of the Shareholders. Also, at the same time, the financial statements reflect the effect of the disposal of the results approved by the General Meeting and the possible formation of reserves. 4.20 Business combinations Subsidiaries are fully consolidated (full consolidation) applying the acquisition method from the date when control over them has been acquired and cease to be consolidated from the date when such control is no longer effective. Acquisition of a subsidiary by the Group is accounted for using the acquisition method. As at the acquisition date, the acquirer recognizes the goodwill arising on the acquisition transaction as the excess between: • the aggregation of (i) the transferred consideration, measured at fair value; (ii) the amount of any non- controlling interests in the acquiree (measured at fair value or the proportion of non-controlling interests in its net identifiable assets (iii) in a business combination that is completed in stages, the fair value at the date of acquisition of the acquirer's shareholding previously acquired in the acquiree, less • the net fair value of the acquiree's identifiable assets and liabilities as at the acquisition date. Goodwill is tested for potential impairment on annual basis and the balance between its carrying amount and recoverable amount is recognized as an impairment loss, burdening the income statement for the period. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 178 The costs arising under acquisition of investments in subsidiaries (eg fees of consultants, lawyers, accountants, appraisers and other professional and advisory fees) are recognized as expenses and burden the income statement for the period when they are incurred. Otherwise, when the acquiree acquires participating interest, in which, at the acquisition date, net value of assets and assumed liabilities exceeds the transferred consideration, then the issue is classified as a market opportunity. Following the necessary reviews, the excess arising from the above balance is recognized as profit in the income statement for the period. Any consideration given by the Group is initially recognized at its fair value at the date of acquisition. Changes in the fair value of any consideration that qualify as an asset or liability are recognized in accordance with IFRS 9 in the income statement. Contingent consideration recognized in equity is not redefined and the subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. 4.21 Acquisition of entities that do not constitute a “business” according to the definition of IFRS 3 – Acquisition of assets In accordance with IFRS 3 "Business Combination", the Group determines whether a transaction or other event constitutes a business combination as defined in the Standard, ie whether the assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a "business". In the event that the acquired assets are not a business, the Group shall account for the transaction or other event as an asset acquisition. According to IFRS 3, the term "business" identifies an integrated set of activities and assets that is capable of being conducted and managed for the purpose of providing a return in the form of dividends, lower costs or other economic benefits directly to investors or to other owners, members or participants. The accounting treatment of a business combination (see accounting policy 4.20 "Business combination" does not apply to the acquisition of an asset (or group of assets) that does not constitute a "business". In this context, in the case of acquisition of entities that do not meet the definition of "business" in IFRS 3: - The acquirer shall identify the individual identifiable assets acquired (including those assets that meet the definition of, and recognition criteria for intangible assets in IAS 38) and liabilities assumed. In accordance with IFRS 3.2 (b), the cost of the group shall be allocated to the individual identifiable assets and liabilities on the basis of their relative fair values at the date of purchase. - Goodwill or gain on a bargain purchase shall not be recognized in the transaction. The cost of the asset acquired (or group of assets) is allocated to the individual identifiable assets and liabilities based on their relative fair values at the date of purchase. - In accordance with IAS 12.15, recognition of deferred tax is not permitted upon initial recognition of an asset or a liability in a transaction that is not a business combination. In this context, no deferred tax is recognized on the acquisition of assets. - Costs associated with the acquisition of assets (eg fees of consultants, lawyers, accountants, appraisers and other professional and consulting fees) are recognized as an expense and are accounted for to profit or loss for in the period they are incurred. - Any contingent consideration given by the Group is initially recognized at its fair value at the acquisition date. Changes in the fair value of any consideration that meet the conditions for classification as an asset or liability are recognized by a corresponding change in the value of the recognized asset (eg IAS 38).

The company HELLAS SMARTICKET S.A. ("HST") is fully consolidated as a subsidiary, as the Group exercises control in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 10 (See Note 11.2). * After the loss of control of the subsidiaries of the TERNA DEN LLC Sub-Group, which owns and operates the three (3) Wind Farms in Texas, USA (see Note 7.1), these companies remain in the Group, but do not have any substantial activity. 5.3 Changes in the Group structure within 2021 On January 29 th , 2021, the Group through TERNA ENERGY OVERSEAS LTD, acquired an additional 10% of the shares of its subsidiary TERNA ENERGY TRADING LTD for an amount of € 90 thousand of which € 65 thousand was paid to the seller while the remaining amount of 25 thousand covered an outstanding due capital of the seller towards the company. On December 1 st , 2021, the Group acquired an additional 29% of the shares of subsidiary TERNA ENERGY TRADING LTD for an amount of € 1, thus changing the participation percentage in the latter to 90%. As a result of the above transactions, the Group increased the percentage of its indirect participation in subsidiaries TERNA ENERGY TRADING EOOD, TETRA DOOEL SKOPJE, TERNA ENERGY TRADING D.O.O and TERNA ENERGY TRADING SHPK to 90%. It is noted that TERNA ENERGY TRADING LTD holds 100% of the share capital of the above companies. As at 30/06/2021, the Group lost control of the subsidiaries of the TERNA DEN LLC Sub-Group, which owns and operates the three (3) Wind Farms in Texas, USA. The items of the results of these Wind farms for the reported periods are presented in the results from discontinued operations of the Group (see in detail Note 7.1.5). In October 2021, after the signing of an act amending the terms of the existing shareholders' agreement, the Group assumed control of OPTIMUS ENERGY SA, which until that date was consolidated as a jointly controlled entity based on the equity method (see details Note 7.2) During the second half of the year 2021, the liquidation of the companies TERNA ENERGIAKI & SIA AEOLIKI ROKANI DERVENOCHORION GP, MALESINA ENERGY LTD & ORCHOMENOS ENERGY LTD was completed. The above companies had not started their production activity. Finally, in September 2021, the company TERNA ENERGY OVERSEAS LTD acquired for a symbolic consideration all shares of the newly established company EOLOS DEVELOPMENT Sp.z o.o. 6. SEGMENT REPORTING Under the provisions of IFRS 8, an operating sector is a component of an entity: a) that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the same entity), and, b) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 184 and assess its performance. The term “chief operating decision maker” defines the function of the Group, which is to allocate resources to and assess the performance of the operating segments of an entity. For the application of IFRS 8, this function is assigned to the Board of Directors. The Management separately monitors the operating results of the Group’s individual operating segments in order to make the necessary decisions, allocate the available resources and evaluate their performance. For management reporting purposes, the Group is organized in the following operating segments: i. Constructions: The segment refers to development of wind farms and other units for electricity production from renewable energy sources, and also to the construction of the necessary infrastructure (roads, substations, interconnection with the national electric energy grid). Furthermore, the construction segment of the Group undertakes construction of the infrastructure assigned to special purpose companies of the Group in the form of Public-Private Partnerships. Finally, the construction segment of the Group renders services to third parties mainly in small scale infrastructure works under the capacity of the main contractor or subcontractor, or through joint ventures. ii. Electricity from RES: The segment mainly concerns production of electricity through wind energy. The portfolio also includes a number of photovoltaic projects, hydroelectric projects, and related energy projects with the use of biomass at various development stages. iii. Trade in electric energy: The segment refers to trade in electric energy and includes as follows: Supply and sale of electric energy from and to the neighboring markets and the markets of Southeastern Europe/Development of the network of subsidiaries in the Balkan area with the objective of accessing the respective markets of electric energy/Participation in tenders for acquisition of rights for cross‐border electric energy transmission. Acquisition of such rights is a requirement for the transmission of electric energy among the neighboring countries/ Continuing operations and analysis of options offered in the international markets of electric energy (on a daily, monthly and annual basis). iv. Concessions: The segment concerns operation of infrastructure and public sector projects (such as Unified Automatic Collection System and the municipal waste treatment facility in Epirus Region) in exchange for long‐term operation of the above projects through provision of services to the public .

BUSINESS COMBINATIO Ν 7.1 Loss of Control over the Group’s 3 Wind Parks in Texas, USA – Discontinued Operations 7.1.1 General Overview of the February 2021 Natural Phenomenon in Texas, USA and its Impact on Energy Consumption, Energy Infrastructure and Energy Costs Within the year under consideration and specifically on 11/02/2021, bad weather of unprecedented power and severity hit most areas of the State of Texas, in the United States of America,, adversely affecting the Group's activities [through TERNA ENERGY USA HOLDING CORP ("TERNA USA") and in particular the TERNA DEN LLC Subgroup ( which includes US subsidiaries that own and operate the Group's 3 (three) Wind Farms in Texas - Fluvanna 1, Fluvanna 2 / Gopher Greek and Bearkat I – of total capacity of 510MW - hereinafter referred to as "the three (3) Wind Farms")], as well as a significant number of other Texas power plants (not just renewables but also gas, coal, and nuclear power plants). TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 190 The phenomena began to hit the State severely and already as of 12/02/2021 and the 254 counties of the State of Texas were put in a state of disaster. Extremely low temperatures of up to -22οC were observed, with alternation to snowfall and icy rain, while the accumulation of ice on the wings of the wind farm machines resulted in their shutdown due to eccentric load. The extremely low temperatures resulted in: (i) the vertical increase in gas and electricity consumption (in the case of electricity, 20% higher consumption was recorded than projected by the grid operator). (ii) the insufficiency of available energy production that could not meet the increased demand. The deep cold has greatly affected the electromechanical mechanism in the energy infrastructure, while the electricity transmission and distribution network has suffered significant damages. Due to the combination of the above, the electricity generation capacity was significantly affected. iii) the imposition of controlled / rolling blackouts by ERCOT in order to avoid a generalized blackout throughout the State of Texas and to reduce the demand for electricity in the available (reduced) production. Production capacity in the Texas system was at 50% of the declared as available until the onset of the Natural Phenomenon. (iv) the combined conditions of increased consumption and reduced production led to a dramatic increase in the price of electricity, which rose from a level of US $ 20 / MWh to US $ 9,000 / MWh, which is the maximum allowed by ERCOT. Due to the generally strong fluctuations in electricity producer prices in Texas, 85% of total electricity generation at ERCOT is allocated through tariff hedging contracts, which, in practice share the risk between producers and their counterparties. In particular, the producers assume the obligation and the risk of production according to a promised profile (which is different per day, per season, or per hour, depending on the producer), while the counterparty assumes the obligation and the risk of purchasing the produced energy according to the agreed energy profile, at a specific price. In case the energy production deviates from the contractual profile, the market price is used. In this case, as the producers could not produce energy for distribution to their counterparties according to the contractual provisions (as it was the case in the Wind farms of the TERNA ENERGY sub-Group), the counterparties proceeded to purchase this energy from the free market against the prevailing up to US $ 9,000 / MWh and invoiced the producers the difference between the energy purchase price and the respective agreed / contract price (approximately US $ 20 / MWh), thus causing enormous financial burdens on the producers. It is noted that all three wind parks in Texas, returned to full operation between 20 and 23 February 2021. 7.1.2 Financial burden on the three (3) Wind Parks of the Group because of the Natural Phenomenon In the case of the Group's 3 (three) Wind Farms, these conditions generated an energy shortfall of approximately $ 30 million per day and ultimately amounted to $ 179.4 million. In particular, the counterparties Merrill Lynch Commodities, Inc., Morgan Stanley Capital Group Inc. and JPMorgan Chase Bank respectively (hereinafter referred to as "Hedge Providers"), on the basis of the existing hedging contracts with the three Wind Farms, TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 191 issued Liquidated Damages invoices, covering the period from 13 to 19 February 2021, totally amounting to $ 179.4 million, allocated as follows: Fluvanna 1 $ 32.7 million, Fluvanna 2/Gopher Creek $ 69.6 million and Bearkat $ 77.1 million. These invoices were disputed and were not accepted by the Group, as the Management invoked the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event – see Note 7.1.3. 7.1.3 Actions and decisions of the Management of the Group The previous risk analysis was performed with the contribution of the best market consultants which did not include the occurrence of a similar event. At the same time, insurance coverage could not cover the event, as no projections were made for such an event in the risk analysis of the insurance companies. The Management of the Group moved quickly from the first moments of the occurrence of the Natural Phenomenon and proceeded with all the necessary actions, to notify the Hedge Providers in time for the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event. With this action, the goal of the Group Management was to activate the contractual provision for the exemption of the three (3) Wind farms from the obligation to provide energy to Hedge Providers due to force majeure. The occurrence of Force Majeure was not accepted by the Hedge Providers, because of which they proceeded within February 2021 with invoices for unqualified energy ("Liquidated Damages invoices"), which cover the period from 13 to 19 February 2021. Throughout the onset of the phenomenon, daily discussions with all stakeholders (Hedge Providers, Tax Equity Investors, and Lender) and their legal advisors continued with increasing intensity, to minimize the adverse effects on the Group. While these discussions were ongoing, the Group Management considered the following three possible actions: (a) Maintaining the three (3) Wind farms and appealing to the competent courts to initiate a legal dispute with Hedge Providers over the pricing of non-supplied energy (Liquidated Damages invoices) covering the period from the 13th to the 19th of February 2021; Class B interests), (b) finding a mutually acceptable commercial solution to the dispute with the Hedge Providers and (c) divesting from the three (3) Wind Farms in the USA (Class B interests). After the thorough examination of the above actions by the Management, it was found that the smallest possible impact on the financial results of the Group would result from the choice of the third action, as through the divestment, the loss for the Group is limited to € 94,04 million Euros ( see Note 7.1.4 κατωτέρω ). In particular, the Management of the Group, after a thorough examination of all data and conditions, decided to enter into an agreement for the sale of 100% of the shares of Class B (membership interests) of the subsidiaries that own and operate the three (3) Wind Farms in Texas towards the lending bank "CI-II FLUVANNA BK / S" ("CIP"), in exchange for the release of the loan obligations of the company TERNA DEN LLC (100% parent of these subsidiaries, which financed the construction of the Wind farms through borrowing from the CIP). TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 192 Note 7.1.4 below presents the Management's decision to divest from the three (3) Wind Farms in Texas, as well as the total accounting loss recognized because of the consolidated results for 2021. Finally, it is emphasized that the loss from Disinvestment from the 3 Wind Farms in Texas is a non-recurring event, the effects of which have no effect either on the TERNA ENERGY USA HOLDING GROUP in the USA or in the senior parent company TERNA ENERGIAKI. As a result of the above, apart from the accounting loss recognized in 2021 (see Note 7.1.4 below) no liquidity or financing issues arose for the Group. 7.1.4 Sale of Three (3) Wind Parks of the Group in Texas, USA As a consequence of all the above, and as a result of the continuous consultations and discussions with all the involved parties that started immediately after the occurrence of the Natural Phenomenon, the Management signed on 19/07/2021, with a date of entry into force of 30/06/2021, Put & Call Option Agreement with the lending bank CI-II Fluvanna BK / S (hereinafter “CIP”) regarding the sale of Class B Interests held by the Group to the subsidiaries Sponsor Bearkat I Holdco LLC ("Sponsor Bearkat I"), Fluvanna Investments 2 LLC ("Gopher HoldCo") and Fluvanna 1 Investor Inc ("Fluvanna HoldCo") - hereinafter referred to as "the three (3) Wind Farms" or "Disposal Team". According to the terms of the signed agreement, CIP (through its affiliated companies) purchased the right to purchase the Class B Interests of the above companies, and the Group purchased the right to sell the said holdings. The exercise price of the purchase and sale options was set at 1 US Dollar ($ 1.00) plus the theoretical repayment of the Group's borrowings to CIP, i.e., the Group's lender bank for financing, through TERNA DEN LLC, the construction of the 3 (three) Wind Parks. In accordance with the terms of the agreement and the requirements of IFRS 10 "Consolidated Financial Statements", the Management of the Group assessed that it lost on 30/06/2021, the control of the above three (3) Wind Farms, while up to 30/09/2021 was set the deadline for the completion of the Transaction and the transfer of company shares to the Buyer. According to the definitions of IFRS 10, control exists when the investor exercises power over the investee, holds positions or variable returns rights from the investor's participation and has the ability to use his power over the investee in order to influence the amount of its returns. From the evaluation of the contractual rights deriving from the Put & Call Option Agreement, the Management assessed that, from 30/06/2021 and onwards, it has lost the element of power over the three (3) Wind farms in Texas, USA. Therefore, the Group divested from these investments, through the theoretical sale (deemed disposal) following the Put Call Options Agreement, which led to a substantial loss of control (the three (3) Wind Farms were considered as a Disposal Team according to the requirements of the IFRS 5 "Non-current Assets Available for Sale and Discontinued Operations"). The deemed sale of the companies took place against the theoretical consideration equal to the amount of 1 US Dollar ($ 1.00) plus the theoretical repayment of the existing loan received by the Group through TERNA DEN to finance the construction of these Wind farms (non-cash consideration that essentially relates to the transfer of loans to the Buyer at the date of completion of the transaction - see Note 22). TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 193 On July 23, 2021, the Group, through its subsidiaries SPONSOR BEARKAT I HOLDCO, LLC, FLUVANNA INVESTMENTS 2, LLC, and FLUVANNA I INVESTOR, INC, exercised the put option that it had acquired through the above Put & Call Option Agreement. As a result of that exercise, the Contract for the Sale and Purchase of Class B company shares (interests) of the three (3) wind farms "Disposal Group of Assets" was signed on September 30, 2021. With the signing of this agreement, the process of transferring the aforementioned company shares to CIP was completed. As a result of all the events described above, on 30/06/2021, the Group deconsolidated its participation in the three (3) US Wind Parks (Class B Interests). In the consolidated Financial Statements for the year 2021, the Gains / (Losses) of these Wind Parks which were previously fully consolidated i.e. until 30/06/2021, as well as the result obtained from the theoretical sale (deemed disposal), have been included in item "Profit / (Loss) after taxes from discontinued operations" (see Note 7.1.5). Details of the book values of the net assets of the above Wind Farms at the date of loss of control are as follows: Deemed disposal as a result of the Put Call Option Agreement, which led to a loss of control Book values at the date of loss of control Assets Non current assets 536.560 Current assets other than cash 22.070 Cash and cash equivalents 8.031 Total assets 566.661 Liabilities Long‐term loan liabilities 8.602 Equity instruments having a substance of financial liability 233.141 Other long term liabilities 29.610 Short‐term loans 28.264 Equity instruments having a substance of financial liability (short-term part) 45.379 Current liabilities including liabilities to Hedge Providers from invoicing of non-supplied energy (“Liquidated Damages invoices”) 136.267 Total liabilities 481.263 Net assets disposed 85.398 Respectively, the calculation of the result of the above transactions is analyzed as follows: Cash consideration ($1.00) − Theoretical repayment of CIP bank loans (lender bank of TERNA DEN to finance the construction of the 3 Wind Parks) - Non-cash consideration 194.356 Theoretical selling price (a) 194.356 Disposal costs (b) 1.076 TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 194 Book value of the Disposal Group of Entities (c) 85.398 Profit from the presumed sale of the 3 Wind Parks as a result of the loss of control (a) - (b) - (c) 107.882 Less: Reclassification of other comprehensive income related to discontinued operations in current year results (39.925) Total profit from the presumed sale as a result of the loss of control 67.957 Results from the discontinued operations of the 3 Wind Parks for the period 01/01 – 31/12/2021 (161.992) Overall results from discontinued operations (see Note 7.1.5.2) (94.035) The amount of profit was calculated as the difference between the theoretical consideration less the estimated disposal costs of the above holdings of the Group and the book value of the Disposal Team at the date of loss of control. As a result of the decision of the Group Management to de-consolidate from the investments in the 3 Wind Farms in Texas, USA, the total loss for the Group was reduced from € 161,99 million to € 94,04 million No further liquidity or financing issues arose for the Group.. In accordance with the above details, the presumed sale of the three (3) Wind Farms took place instead of the theoretical consideration equal to the amount of 1 US Dollar ($ 1.00) plus the theoretical repayment of the existing loan received by the Group (through their parent company TERNA DEN) to finance the construction of these Wind farms. Based on the requirements of IFRS, it was deemed appropriate to offset the above receivable (non-cash theoretical price of the sale transaction) with the borrowings of the Group (theoretical repayment of loan obligations of TERNA DEN LLC, through the transfer of this liability to the buyer). The presentation of the above receivable and loan liabilities on an offsetting basis, reflects the future cash flows of the Group from the settlement of these financial instruments. The offset reflects the substance of the transaction and was made on the basis that there is a legally strong right to counterbalance the above mentioned amounts (based on the relevant terms of the contract) and further the Group intends to settle the assets and liabilities on a clearing basis. The relevant settlement (theoretical repayment of the Group's loan obligations to CIP) occurred on 30/09/2021, when the Class B Interests (company shares) were transferred to the Buyer, i.e. the relevant Purchase & Sale Agreement was signed concerning the company shares to the CIP. 7.1.5 Discontinued Operations of the Group 7.1.5.1 Discontinued operations for the comparative reporting period (01/01 - 31/12/2020) The data of the consolidated Income Statement for the comparative reporting period (01/01 - 31/12/2020) have been restated in order to include only the continuing operations. The discontinued operations of the comparative period include: • The results of the 3 Wind Farms (Sponsor Bearkat I, Gopher HoldCo and Fluvanna HoldCo) in Texas, USA for the period 01/01 – 31/12/2020 (due to the loss of control on 30/06/2021 - see Note 7.1.3 and 7.1.4). TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 195 • the results of the Mountain Air Wind Farm in Idaho, USA for the period 01/01 – 31/12/2020 (due to sale on 15/07/2020), as a result of the decision of the Management to divest from the (3) remaining parks he owned in the USA in 2021. More specifically, in the annual Financial Statements for the year 2020, the data of the Income Statement of the said wind farm (for the period 01/01 – 15/07/2020), as well as the result obtained from the sale were included in the results of continued operations, as, based on the definition of discontinued companies and the criteria of IFRS 5, this transaction did not constitute a discontinued operation for the Group's activities. Specifically, after the sale of Mountain Air, the Group continued to operate the remaining three (3) wind farms with a total capacity of approximately 510 MW, in the state of Texas, therefore this sale did not represent for the Group an interruption of a significant separate line business activity or a separate significant geographical area of activity. Given the developments that took place in 2021 (see Note 7.1.3), the Group no longer has the activity of production and sale of electricity in the USA and for this purpose and for the correct presentation of the comparative results, the Mountain Air Park was presented under the discontinued operations of the Group for the comparative period ο 01/01 - 31/12/2020. 7.1.5.2 Net Results of the Group from Discontinued Operations The net results of the Group from discontinued operations for the periods 01/01 – 31/12/2021 and 01/01 – 31/12/2020 are analyzed as follows: 01/01 - 31/12/2021 01/01 - 31/12/2020 Revenue 32.132 79.400 Cost of sales (21.337) (51.460) Gross profit 10.795 27.940 Administrative and distribution expenses (104) (329) Other income/(expenses) (145.360) 8.532 Results from Operating Activities (134.669) 36.143 Financial income 260 45 Financial expenses (19.447) (44.580) Losses from financial instruments measured at fair value (7.991) (412) Gains from disposals and valuation of participations and other investments − 27.453 Losses before income tax (161.847) 18.650 Income tax expense (145) (397) Net operating losses (161.992) 18.253 Less: Reclassification of other comprehensive income related to discontinued operations in current year results (39.925) − Profit from the presumed sale of the 3 Wind Parks as a result of the loss of control 107.882 − Net loss for the period from discontinued operations (94.035) 18.253 The table below presents the net cash flows from operating, investment and financial activities related to discontinued operations for the periods 01/01 - 31/12/2021 and 01/01 - 31/12/2020: TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 196 Cash flow analysis of discontinued operations 01/01 - 31/12/2021 01/01 - 31/12/2020 Net cash flows from operating activities (28.234) 76.157 Net cash flows from investment activities − 43.608 Net cash flows from financial activities 26.313 (61.519) Total net cash flows from discontinued operations (1.921) 58.246 The basic earnings per share from discontinued operations for the presented reporting periods 01/01- 31/12/2021 and 01/01- 31/12/2020 amount to € (0,81288) and € 0,16242 respectively (see detailed calculation method in Note 33). There are no diluted earnings per share from discontinued operations. 7.2 Acquisition of Control of the company OPTIMUS ENERGY S.A. within 2021 (former joint venture) TERNA ENERGY participates with 51% in the company OPTIMUS ENERGY SA. Despite holding a majority of the voting rights, the Company did not exercise control over OPTIMUS ENERGY SA. According to the definitions of IFRS 10 "Consolidated Financial Statements", as a consequence of the terms included in the relevant shareholders' agreement, the Management had assessed that it exercises joint control in accordance with IFRS 11 "Shares under Joint Control". Therefore, this investment was classified in the item "Investments in Joint Ventures" and was consolidated according to the equity method. OPTIMUS ENERGY SA aims to provide integrated representation and financial optimization services to Producers of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) in the Greek wholesale electricity market and is licensed by RAE as a Cumulative Representation Agency (CRA). During the financial year 2021, and in particular in October 2021, an act of amendment of the terms of the above shareholders' agreement was signed. As a result, changes were made in the manner of exercising control on OPTIMUS ENERGY SA along with an amendment made in the latter company’s articles of association. Following the above change, certain shareholder rights expired, which previously did not allow the Company to exercise control in accordance with the requirements of IFRS 10. Consequently, and after evaluation of the requirements of IFRS 10, from 25.10.2021 TERNA ENERGY acquired the control of the company OPTIMUS ENERGY SA. As a result of the above, from 25.10.2021 onwards, OPTIMUS ENERGY SA is consolidated as a subsidiary in the consolidated financial statements by the method of full consolidation. The investment in OPTIMUS ENERGY SA for the period 01/01/2021 – 25/10/2021 was consolidated based on the equity method and therefore, the results of the Group for the annual period ended 31/12/2021 include its share (51%) in the results of the above company and certain profits amounting to € 470 thousand. This amount is included in the item "Share of results of assosiates and joint ventures" of the consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income based on the percentage held by the Group until 25.10.2021 (i.e. 51%). Respectively, the contribution to the total results of the Group for the period 25/10-31/12/2020 had amounted to € 67 thousand. Furthermore, in accordance with the requirements of IFRS 3 "Business Combinations", at the date of acquisition of control, the Group measured the existing pre-acquisition equity rights (51%) at fair value. The above estimation indicated a profit of € 3,994 thousand which was recognized in favor of the consolidated results of TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 197 the year 2021 and was included in the item "Profit / (losses) from sale and valuation of participations and other investments" of the consolidated Income Statement for the year 2021. The measurement of the fair value of OPTIMUS ENERGY SA amounted to € 9,400 thousand and was determined based on the valuation technique of discounted cash flows. The determination of fair value is based on significant assumptions not observable in the market. The main estimates and assumptions are related to the evolution of the future income of the company which is expected to be formed based on the estimated representation that the company is expected to achieve in the total estimated electricity production of the country as planned by the National Energy & Climate Plan. The estimated future cash flows have been discounted at a discount rate of 11.60%. Acquired assets and assumed liabilities and Temporary Goodwill The book values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in October 2021 and the resulting temporary goodwill are as follows: Temporary book values at the acquisition of control ASSETS Intangible assets και Right-of-use assets 179 Property, plant and equipment 6 Other long‐term receivables 5 Trade receivables και Receivables from contracts with customers 7.422 Prepayments and other receivables 23.285 Cash and cash equivalents 22.914 TOTAL ASSETS 53.811 Liabilities Lease liabilities 1 Suppliers και Liabilities from contracts with customers 337 Accrued and other short‐term liabilities 51.626 Income tax payable 279 Total liabilities 52.243 Less: Non Controlling interest (768) Book Value of acquaried net assets 800 The goodwill arising from the above transaction, and which is included in the respective item of the consolidated Statement of Financial Position was determined based on the book values of OPTIMUS on 25/10/2021 and is deemed to be temporary. The process of determining the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities, the purchase price allocation and the consequent final determination of the relevant goodwill is underway, as the Group made use of the option provided by IFRS 3 "Business Combinations" for the finalization of the above figures within the 12-month period from the date of acquisition of control. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 198 Consideration of obtaining control − Fair Value of owned shares (51% - see above) 4.794 Less: Obtained Net Asset (800) Temporary Goodwill 3.994 The total income after taxes and non-controlling interests of OPTIMUS ENERGY SA for the period 25/10/2021 up to 31/12/2021 amounted to earnings of € 67 thousand and were included in the consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income of the Group. If the above company had been fully consolidated with the above percentage from 01/01/2021, then the consolidated turnover would have increased by € 2,006 thousand, while the consolidated earnings after taxes and non-controlling interests would have increased by € 989 thousand. 8.

During the previous year, the Group recognized intangible assets of € 30,611 thousand as a result of the acquisition of the subsidiary RF ENERGY OMALIES SA, which was subsequently renamed into TERNA ENERGY OMALIES SA. These intangible assets (wind farm licenses) will start to be amortized on the date of completion of the construction of each farm and the date of electrification of the wind farms. In the interim reporting periods, they are examined for any impairment, in accordance with the relevant requirements of IAS 36 "Impairment of Assets". From the performance of the relevant audit on the reporting date of the annual financial statements, i.e. on 31/12/2021, there was no need to recognize any impairment losses on these intangible assets. 9.

TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 207 During the year 2021 the Company recognized dividends collected from the subsidiaries amounting to € 31.594 thousand Those amounts are included in the item "Income from participations and other investments" in the attached separate Financial Statements (see Note 40). 11.2 Assessment of control under IFRS 10 The company HELLAS SMARTICKET ΑΕ («HST»), which is 35% owned by the Group in terms of voting rights, is fully consolidated as a subsidiary, since the Group exercises control over it according to the provisions of IFRS 10. More specifically, the Company owned 70% of the share capital of (HST) until 28/11/2017 inclusively, when it sold off 35% of its holding to its parent company GEK TERNA. According to the Management assessment, the Company exercises control over that subsidiary as IFRS 10 criteria are met since it directs the related operations of the subsidiary through the majority of BoD members and key management personnel. A reassessment of the above judgments was conducted within the current reporting period, and no change was made with respect to the existing approach. During the current year, as a result of amending the terms of an existing shareholder agreement regarding OPTIMUS ENERGY SA (in which the Company holds 51% of the voting rights) based on which changes were made in the exercise of control, the Group re-evaluated the audit elements according to the requirements of IFRS 10, and concluded that on 25.10.2021 TERNA ENERGY acquired control of the above company, which from this date is fully consolidated as a subsidiary, in the consolidated financial statements of the Group (see Note 7.2). 11.3 Impairment test In accordance with the applied accounting policies and in line with provisions of IAS 36, the Company performs an impairment test on the assets at the end of each annual reporting period if there is any indication of impairment. The test can be performed earlier if any evidence of impairment arises. The arising evaluation focuses on both - extrinsic and intrinsic factors. Regarding the impairment test, every wind farm constitutes a Cash Generating Unit (CGU). The recoverable amounts of the above GTUs were determined using the value in use method. Value in use was calculated applying the discounted cash flow method, i.e. projections for cash flows, based on the Management calculations and projections until the end of the useful life of each wind farm. Assumptions used to determine value in use The key assumptions applied by Management relate to the determination of the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to be generated by each CGU (discounted cash flow method) and are as follows: • Projected sales: Projected sales include management assumptions and estimates that have taken into account historical measurements of electricity generation and electricity sales prices. • Pre – calculated EBITDA: Operating profit margins and EBITDA are calculated on the basis of the latest years’ actuarial data. For the projected period, EBITDA margin for RES is estimated fluctuate between 13% and 82%while for the biomass 35% and 54%. • Discount rate from 4,05% up to 8,68% per case (for Greece 4,05% ‐ 8,68%, for Poland 4,73% - 7,61% and for Bulgaria 6,58% - 6,60%).

According to the details mentioned in Note 7.1 of the Financial Statements, on 30/06/2021, the Group lost control and de-consolidated the subsidiaries of TERNA DEN LLC Sub-Group, which owned and operated the three (3) Wind Farms in Texas, USA. As a result of the fact of the loss of control, on 30/06/2021, from the above derivatives, it was de-recognized the loss in the results of the period deriving from changes in the fair value of € 6,828 thousand and was accordingly transferred to the "Results for the period from discontinued operations". For purposes of comparability, the corresponding loss recognized in the year 2020 in the item "Losses from financial instruments valued at fair value" amounting to € 412 thousand was de-recognized and transferred to the "Results for the period from discontinued operations".

The objective of interest rate swaps is to offset the risk of adverse cash flows of future cash flows arising from interest on loan contracts entered into as a result of activities, in particular the electricity generation sector. Specifically, interest rate swaps relate to contracts whereby the variable interest rate on the loan is converted to fixed over the entire term of the loan, so that the Group is protected against any increase in interest rates. The fair value of these contracts was estimated by displaying the effective interest rate (euribor) curve as of 31/12/2021, throughout the time horizon of such contracts. The fair value of these contracts as of 31/12/2021 amounted to a total net liability of € 2.111 with the total nominal value of the contracts amounting to € 253.132 thousand for Greece and Bulgaria). As of 31/12/2021, these derivatives met the requirements for cash flow hedging, in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 9 and from their measurement at fair values a profit of € 6.280 thousand ( 2020: loss € 2.158 thousand) was recognized in the item "Cash flow hedging" in the other comprehensive income statement.

This financial liability has been classified in the fair value hierarchy at level 3 (see Note 44). 24.2.2 Derivative hedging derivatives of energy prices in the Group for RES investments in RES in USA On 31/12/2020, the fair value of hedging derivatives utilized against the changes in energy purchase prices for the Group's RES investments in USA was determined at a net receivable of € 10,289 thousand. On 31/5/2021, the Group prematurely terminated a collar type option as well as a swaption type option. The fair value as of 31/12/2020 that was derecognized, implied a net receivable of € 2,569 thousand. Also, the early termination resulted in an additional cost of € 1,649 thousand, which was included in the "Results for the period from discontinued operations". According to the details mentioned in Note 7.1 of the Financial Statements, on 30/06/2021, the Group lost control and de-recognized the subsidiaries of TERNA DEN LLC Sub-Group, which owns and operates the three (3) Wind Farms in Texas, USA.

PROVISION FOR STAFF INDEMNITIES According to Greek labor law, each employee is entitled to a lump‐sum indemnity in case of dismissal or retirement. The amount of the indemnity depends on the length of service with the company and the employee’s wages the day he/she is dismissed or retires. Employees that resign or are justifiably dismissed are not entitled to such an indemnity. The indemnity payable in case of retirement in Greece is equal to 40% of the TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 229 indemnity calculated in case of dismissal. According to the practices in the countries where the subsidiaries of the Group are operating in, staff indemnity programs are usually not funded. The liabilities for staff indemnity liabilities were determined through an actuarial study. The following tables present an analysis of the net expenditure for the relevant provisions recorded in the consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income for the FY 2021 and the change of the relevant provision accounts for staff indemnities presented in the attached consolidated Statement of financial position for the year ended on 31/12/2021.

EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share were calculated by dividing the net earnings attributed to shareholders of the parent company by the weighted average number of outstanding shares as follows: GROUP 31/12/2021 31/12/2020 * Net profit attributed to shareholders of the parent for basic EPS purposes (in thousand Euro) - from continuing operations 71.834 53.588 - from discontinued operations (94.035) 18.253 (22.201) 71.841 Average weighted number of shares used to calculate basic EPS 115.681.726 112.381.580 Basic Earnings per share attributed to shareholders of the parent (Amounts in Euro per share) - from continuing operations 0,62096 0,47684 - from discontinued operations (0,81288) 0,16242 - from continuing and discontinued operations (0,19191) 0,63926 * The comparative figures of the Group and the Company for the year 2020 have been revised by the impact from the changes of the accounting policy of IAS 19 (see Note 2.6.3).

INCOME TAX – DEFERRED TAXATION The tax rate for legal entities in Greece in the year 2021 after the enactment of Law 4799/2021 which amended par. 1 of no. 58 of Law 4172/2013 is set at 22% while for the year 2020 was 24%. The effect from this reduction of the tax rate in the year 2021, on the results and the other comprehensive results for the Group amounted to a profit of € 1,908 thousand and a loss of € 173 thousand respectively. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 239 The effective tax rate differs from the nominal. The calculation of the effective tax rate is affected by several factors, the most important of which are non‐exemption of specific expenses, depreciation rates differences, arising between the fixed asset’s useful life and the rates defined under Law 4172/2013, and the ability of companies to generate tax‐exempted discounts and tax‐exempted reserves. ( α ) Income Tax Expense Income tax in the accompanying consolidated and separate financial statements for 2021 and 2020, is analyzed as follows: GROUP COMPANY 31/12/2021 31/12/2020 * 31/12/2021 31/12/2020 * Current income tax 18.242 15.109 1.709 598 Deferred tax 7.277 1.119 336 (3.046) Total 25.519 16.228 2.045 (2.448) GROUP COMPANY 31/12/2021 31/12/2020 * 31/12/2021 31/12/2020 * Profit before tax 98.437 90.060 35.174 26.498 Nominal tax rate 22% 24% 22% 24% Income tax based on the effective nominal tax rate 21.656 21.614 7.738 6.360 Adjustments for: Expenses not included in the tax calculation 141 451 141 451 Effect of change in tax rate and tax rate differences of foreign subsidaries (1.791) (278) 95 − Adjustments of tax of previous years and additional taxes − (833) − − Difference in taxation of foreign companies (312) (1.354) − − Write-off/(offsetting) of tax losses 853 (427) − − Effect of participations of associates and joint ventures in net results 756 − − − Direct results on other comprehensive income or equity (23) − − − Non-taxable results (598) (1.076) (7.122) (10.116) Permanent tax differences (results not included in the tax calculation) 4.837 (1.473) 1.193 857 Deferred tax differences of previous years − (396) − − Actual income tax expense 25.519 16.228 2.045 (2.448) Effective tax rate 25,92% 18,02% 5,81% (9,24)% TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 240 * The comparative figures of the Group and the Company for the year 2020 have been revised by the impact from the changes of the accounting policy of IAS 19 (see Note 2.6.3). Tax return statement is submitted on an annual basis but declared profits or losses remain provisional until the tax authorities inspect the taxpayer’s books and records and issue a final audit report. In February 2021 the Company received an order from the Tax Authorities for a partial tax audit of the fiscal years 2015 and 2016, to be conducted by the Audit Authority for Large Enterprises (KEMEP). This audit has started and the Company’s Management estimates that the audit is not expected to have a significant impact on the results of the Company and the Group. The Group annually estimates any contingent liabilities, expected to arise from the audit of past years, making relevant provisions where appropriate. The Group made provisions of € 560 for tax non-inspected years and the Management believes that apart from the provisions made, any potentially arising tax amounts will not have a significant impact on the Group's and Company’s equity, results, and cash flows. Information regarding tax non- inspected years is presented in Notes 5 and 47.1 to the Financial Statements.

RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES AND PROCEDURES The Group is exposed to multiple financial risks such as market risk (fluctuations in exchange rates, interest rates, market prices, etc.), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group, on a regular basis, reviews and assess its exposure to the aforementioned risks, individually and in combination, and uses financial instruments in order to mitigate its exposure to specific risk categories. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 256 Risk assessment and management of the risks which the Group and the Company encounter, are conducted by the Company's Management and the Board of Directors. Key objective is to monitor and assess all types of risks to which the Group and the Company are exposed through their business and investment activities. The Group uses various financial instruments or applies specialized strategies to minimize its exposure to changes in the values of investments that may arise from market fluctuations, including changes in current interest rates and exchange rates. 41.1 Currency Risk Currency risk is the risk that results from the fact that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will be subject to volatility due to changes in exchange rates. This type of risk may result, for the Group, from foreign currency denominated transactions with non-Eurozone countries and countries that have not linked their currency to the euro. The transactions mainly concern purchases of fixed assets and inventories, commercial sales, investments in financial assets, loans, as well as net investments in foreign entities. The Group operates through subsidiaries in Greece, Cyprus, East Europe and North America and thus it may be exposed to foreign exchange risk. The Group’s current foreign activities relate to energy production and electric energy trades. As regards to the construction projects in countries such as Bulgaria, the contractual receivables and liabilities are realized in euro or local currency (which is linked to euro) and thus the exposure to currency risk is limited. But the development of energy projects as well as the trading of electricity in other countries such as Poland, Serbia and North Macedonia, where the local currency fluctuates against euro may lead to currency differences and exposure to currency risk from the change in the Polish zloty (PLN), Serbian dinar (RSD), North Macedonia dinar (MKD), the US Dollar (USD), and Albanian lek (ALL) against euro. The Group uses plain methods of hedging currency risk in the countries where it operates by borrowing partially in local currency, thereby hedging its foreign currency risk. 2021 Amounts in € of balances in currency trades where differences in payments and valuations arise Nominal amounts USD MKD RSD ΑLL PLN Current financial assets 18 − − − 5.740 Current financial liabilities − − − − − Total 18 − − − 5.740 Non-current financial assets − − − − 131 Non-current financial liabilities − − − − − Total − − − − 131 TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 257 Amounts in € of balances in local currency where differences in conversion arise Nominal amounts USD MKD RSD ΑLL PLN Current financial assets 75.743 2.092 6.758 12 12.417 Current financial liabilities (74.101) (1.193) (5.242) (78) (4.757) Total 1.642 899 1.516 (66) 7.660 Non-current financial assets 14.560 − 180 − 3 Non-current financial liabilities (447.452 ) − (40) − (51.125 ) Total (432.892 ) − 140 − (51.122 ) 2020 Amounts in € of balances in currency trades where differences in payments and valuations arise Nominal amounts USD MKD RSD ΑLL PLN Current financial assets 12 − − − 4.251 Current financial liabilities − − − − − Total 12 − − − 4.251 Non-current financial assets − − − − 127 Non-current financial liabilities − − − − − Total − − − − 127 Amounts in € of balances in local currency where differences in conversion arise Nominal amounts USD MKD RSD ΑLL PLN Current financial assets 75.743 2.092 6.758 12 12.417 Current financial liabilities (74.101) (1.193) (5.242) (78) (4.757) Total 1.642 899 1.516 (66) 7.660 Non-current financial assets 14.560 − 180 − 3 Non-current financial liabilities (447.452 ) − (40) − (51.125 ) Total (432.892 ) − 140 − (51.122 ) The table below presents the sensitivity of the year’s result as well as of the other comprehensive income versus the exchange rate fluctuations through their effect on financial assets and liabilities. For the BGN currency we did not review the change as the currency has a fixed exchange rate against the Euro. For the other currencies we reviewed the sensitivity to a change of +/- 10%.

In this context, long-term loans received by the Group either bear a fixed interest rate or are hedged for almost the entire duration. In this context, on 31/12/2021, 35,2% of long-term loans received by the Group bear a fixed interest rate, 30,2% of long-term loans refer to floating-rate loans that have been hedged through derivatives with which future fixed rate payments are exchanged against floating rate collections, while 34,6% of long-term loans refer to floating rate loans on a case by case basis euribor or wibor (Note 22). The Group's short-term bank loans, as a total, are denominated in Euro based on a floating rate linked to Euribor (Note 22). ). It is to be noted that the Group's policy is to convert short-term debt into long-term debt when the wind farm whose construction is financed, is completed. The balance of the Group's short-term debt as at 31/12/2021 amounts to € 40.425 thousand. The following table presents sensitivity of the results for the year versus the Group’s short-term debt and deposits, given a reasonable change in variable interest rates amounting to +20% –20% ( 2020: +/-20% επίσης ). The changes in interest rates are estimated to fluctuate on a normal basis in relation to current market conditions and until today they remain stable compared to the previous Fiscal Year. 2021 2020 Amounts in thousand € 20% (20)% 20% (20)% Results for the year after tax – Group (421) 421 (171) 171 Results for the year after tax – Company (130) 130 (64) 64 The Group is not exposed to other interest rate risks. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 259 41.3 Market Risk The Group, for its financial assets is not exposed to Market risks. 41.4 Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty in a financial instrument might cause damage to the other party by failing to pay the relevant obligation. The Group continuously controls its receivables and incorporates the resulting information in its credit control The total of the energy segment receivables relates to the broader domestic (including DAPEEP and DEDDIE) and foreign Public Sector, while the same is the case regarding the concessions sector and the main part of the construction segment receivables. Given the nature of its operations, the Group is not exposed to significant credit risk from trade receivables except delays in collections from DAPEEP, which have been significantly reduced by the application of Law 4254/14 as well as the extraordinary levy imposed, for the financial year 2020, for encountering the side effects of the coronavirus pandemic, to the producers of electricity from Renewable Energy Sources (RES) stations, and particularly for those which have been put into normal or test operation until 31 December 2015 (Government Gazette 245 / 09.12.2020). The one-off extraordinary levy amounted to 6% of electricity sales for the year 2020. For the Group, the relevant extraordinary levy amounted to € 5,252 thousand and burdened the results of the year 2020. The credit risk for the cash and other receivables is considered low given that the counterparties are reliable banks with high quality capital structure, the Greek State and the broader public sector and powerful groups. The amounts representing the maximum exposure to this risk at the end of the current and comparative periods are the present value of those items in the respective periods. The Company's maximum credit risk is the possibility of the counterparty's default. On 31/12/2021, there are no guarantees and credit enhancements to securing the credit risk of the aforementioned receivables, for both the Group and the Company. The Group’s Management considers that all the above financial assets, arising following the implementations of the necessary impairments, are of high credit quality. 41.5 Liquidity Risk The Group manages its liquidity needs by closely monitoring its long‐term financial liabilities and the daily payments. The liquidity needs are monitored in different time‐zones daily and weekly as well as in a rolling 30 day period. The liquidity needs for the coming 6 months and the coming year are estimated on a monthly basis. The Group and the Company maintain cash and deposits at the banks in order to cover its liquidity needs for periods up to 30 days. The capital for long‐term liquidity needs is disbursed from the time‐deposits of the Group.

The construction sector of TERNA ENERGY is subject to significant fluctuations, both with regards to turnover and with regards to the profitability of each construction project, because the construction activity, particularly TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 261 of specialized companies such as TERNA ENERGY, entails increased volatility that is mainly related to the ongoing renewal of the backlog of construction agreements towards third parties, which are mainly Public entities. (a) Special statement on coronavirus (COVID-2019) pandemic The outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 and the measures taken to limit its spread significantly affected the global and Greek economy and disrupted the global economic stability. The economic impact will depend on the duration and intensity of the recession, as well as the prospects for recovery. However, the good progress of the vaccination program as well as the gradual easing of strict containment measures during 2021 led to a partial recovery of the domestic economy. TERNA ENERGY Group holds a leading position in the sector of renewable energy sources. With a portfolio of projects of total capacity approximately 1,300 MW (in operation or under construction), is one of the largest investors in the Renewable Energy sector in Greece, with a significant presence in the Southeast Europe. The Management's position is that the Group operates in the segments that are more defensive during the phases of the business cycle, which investors recognize as "safe haven" that provide stable recurring cash flows even in times of turmoil and uncertainty, such as the current one. Furthermore, during the Greek financial crisis (i.e. the most difficult and longest financial crisis in Europe), the Group has already proven its ability to grow and strengthen its market position. Group Organizational Planning Applying an extremely high sense of responsibility, towards its customers, employees, suppliers, partners and investors, the Group’s Management monitors the developments in respect of the coronavirus pandemic (COVID- 19), assessing the potential risk factors that could affect the Group's financial position, operations and results. Employee safety has been and still is an absolute priority. For this purpose, TERNA ENERGY maintains, through the special committee, which reports to the Supreme Administration, the plan to ensure business continuity by monitoring all relevant developments. Internal and external protocols for regular and urgent communication with employees and other key stakeholders have been maintained and the actions taken since the beginning of the pandemic continue unabated. The above mentioned actions are presented below: • Creation of a safe working environment for all employees along with the adoption of distance work policies wherever and whenever this is deemed feasible and necessary. The Group has taken a number of precautionary measures, including a large-scale teleworking plan (covering, over this period, more than 50% of the personnel). In addition, the Group provided communication channels for health advice and psychological support for all employees. • Establishment of a special committee for the treatment of coronavirus and ensuring that ALL employees of the Group have the absolute protection and care against COVID-19 and its mutations. The Committee systematically monitors the development of the pandemic, is also being immediately informed of any critical factors of its spread and guides the necessary actions to be taken by the Management and each employee throughout the Group in order to minimize the risks of the phenomenon and their impact on the course of the company. At the same time, the Committee has entered into an agreement with a special diagnostic center for TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 262 the proper and timely examination of all its human resources with the aim of protecting them until the end of the pandemic and bringing social life back to normalcy. Finally, it has safeguarded the workplaces for those employees who continue to work in their offices by implementing the most stringent measures decided by the competent scientific committee of the Greek State. • Security and utilization of the most modern information technology to limit movement and travel to a minimum, the implementation of teleconferencing (video calls), as well as modern, flexible ways of working depending on the individual or special needs of groups of employees. • Establishment and adoption of extremely strict operating rules at all points of presence and operation of the Group in Greece and abroad, in order to constantly confirm the highest possible level of health safety for all. Effects arising from the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) and their mitigation measures The Group has taken all the necessary measures in order to continue the development of its core operations, continuing the exploitation of RES and implementation of its investment plan in the energy segment, strengthening the efforts aimed at stabilizing the Greek economy and improving prospects of employment. In particular, the Management examined the specific conditions that could have a significant impact on the business activities of the RES operating segment as well as the risks to which it is exposed. Based on current events and conditions regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, such issues are analyzed as follows. No interruption or other adverse impact on the Group's facilities that are in operation occurred in the RES electricity segment in Greece. Regarding RES facilities under construction, no delays have been caused due to the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) until today and the estimated time of completion and commissioning of the projects has not changed. Regarding the collection of the Group's revenues, no delays were recorded in 2021. Although estimates regarding the impact of the pandemic on the global and Greek economy vary, Management estimates that the Group's operations, financial performance, cash flows and financial position will not be significantly affected. In any case, the Management ensures the maintenance of the smooth operation both in the Greek territory and in the other countries where the Group operates, applying procedures of continuous identification and evaluation of all risks that may arise in the near future. In direct, continuous and systematic cooperation with the Risk Managers and the executives of the Group, the Management plans and implements measures to deal with any identified risk in order to limit its negative effects to the minimum possible. The organizational efficiency of the Group and the continuous efforts of the Management to use its managers by project and specific issue depending on the required ability and experience, have created a proven capable, flexible and effective mechanism for dealing with any possible crisis in any company of the Group whenever it appears. Due to this fundamental principle is the immediate response of Management and the above mechanism for dealing with the epidemic crisis with prudence, balance and strategic perspective. The impact from COVID-19 is not expected to be significant for TERNA ENERGY Group and the Management has estimated that there is no substantial uncertainty regarding the continuation of the business activity of the Group and the Company. (b) Special note to the war conflict in the region of Ukraine Terna Energy Group closely monitors the geopolitical developments in Ukraine which in any case do not have a direct impact on its size and financial performance. However, from these events, risks have already TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 263 appeared and new ones are expected to emerge. These include: fluctuations in expected state revenues in the tourism sector, inflation pressures on energy and grain prices and uncertainty in the development of foreign direct investment, with all the above being factors that may affect fiscal flexibility and the wider macroeconomic climate and thus have inevitable repercussions on the operations of the Group. (c) Wind and hydrological data fluctuations Regarding its activity in the energy sector, the Group remains exposed to the short-term fluctuations of wind and hydrological data, without affecting the long-term profitability of its projects, as long as the implementation of its investments is preceded by extensive studies involving long-term studies of the above factors. From now on, calculation models should incorporate new factors allowing for the occurrence of potential events of force majeure, such as the current epidemic, in order to examine in greater depth, the viability of any projected investment. Regarding the unprecedented and extreme weather conditions in the State of Texas, USA in February 2021 and their effects on the Group's business activities, a relevant analysis is presented in Note 7.1 of the Financial Statements of the parent company. 42.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT Fair value measurements of financial assets Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in the Group’s Statement of Financial Position are classified under the following 3 level hierarchy in order to determine and disclose the fair value of financial instruments per valuation technique: The Group has adopted the revision of IFRS 7 regarding the fair value hierarchy of the financial instruments at the following levels: • Level 1: at fair value based on quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for comparable assets or liabilities. • Level 2: at fair value, using valuation techniques for which all inputs that significantly affect the fair value, are based (either directly or indirectly) on observable market data. • Level 3: at fair value, using valuation techniques, in which the data that significantly affects the fair value, is not based on observable market data. The Group’s and the Company financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value as of 31/12/2021 and 31/12/2020 classified in the aforementioned levels of hierarchy, are as follows: 31st December 2021 Financial Assets Stage 1 Stage 2 Stage 3 Total Other short-term investments 1.762 − − 1.762 Investments in equity interests − − 2.583 2.583 Receivables from derivatives − 1.409 − 1.409 Total 1.762 1.409 2.583 5.754 TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 266 Financial Liabilities Liabilities from derivatives − 3.657 5.164 8.821 Contingent consideration from acquisition of assets − − 10.549 10.549 Total − 3.657 15.713 19.370 Net Fair Value 1.762 (2.248) (13.130) (13.616) 31st December 2020 Financial Assets Stage 1 Stage 2 Stage 3 Total Other short-term investments 2.212 − − 2.212 Investments in equity interests − − 2.753 2.753 Receivables from derivatives − − 14.544 14.544 Total 2.212 − 17.297 19.509 Financial Liabilities Liabilities from derivatives − 8.392 4.255 12.647 Contingent consideration from acquisition of assets − − 10.290 10.290 Total − 8.392 14.545 22.937 Net Fair Value 2.212 (8.392) 2.752 (3.428) There were no changes in the valuation techniques applied by the Group within the current reporting period. Moreover, there were no transfers of amounts between the fair value hierarchy levels 1 and 2 during the 2021 και 2020. The level 2 derivative financial instruments relate to forward rate swap contracts, while those of level 3 relate to fixed for floating swap contracts of the HERON EN.A and HERON EN.A BUSINESS plan and the possible consideration from the acquisition of assets (see Note 30). To determine the fair value of the above financial instruments, the Group uses appropriate valuation techniques depending on the category of financial instrument. With regard to forward rate swap contracts, their fair value is measured by reference to market interest rate curves, through valuations by credit institutions and in combination with internal valuation using interest rate curves. With regard to the fixed for floating swap contracts of the HERON EN.A and HERON EN.A BUSINESS plan, their fair value is determined by using future market prices and discounting their estimated future value at present value. The fair value of the contingent consideration from acquisition of assets (see Note 30), was determined based on the probability - weighted payout approach, as at the acquisition date. The fair value of the consideration was determined at € 11,590 k and was measured at its present value, i.e. at an amount of € 10,549 k by using an appropriate discount rate of 6.14%. The fair value of the liability for contingent consideration is measured at every reporting date and until the date of its final measurement and payment, i.e. until 31/07/2023. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 267 2021 and 2020 are presented as follows: 31/12/2021 31/12/2020 Investments in equity interests Derivatives Contingent consideration from acquisition of assets Investments in equity interests Derivatives Contingent consideration from acquisition of assets Opening balance 2.753 10.289 (10.290) 2.418 5.666 − - Acquisition 374 (5.164) − 774 − (10.290) - Return of capital (249) − − − − − - (Impairment) (295) − − (439) − − - Finance cost − − (259) − − − - Effect of evaluation − − − − 5.481 − - (Results from discontinued operations (see Note 7.1.5.2)) − (48.408) − − − − - Reductions from loss of control of subsidiaries (see Note 7.3.4) − 37.554 − − − − - Foreign exchange differences − 565 − − (858) − Closing balance 2.583 (5.164) (10.549) 2.753 10.289 (10.290) The carrying amounts of the following financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature: • Trade and other receivables • Cash available • Suppliers and other liabilities 45. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT POLICIES AND PROCEDURES The aims of TERNA ENERGY Group regarding the management of its capital are as follows: • To ensure the ability of the Group to continue its activity (going concern) • To secure a satisfactory return for its shareholders by pricing products and services according to their level of risk. • to fulfill its contraction obligations in respect of specific debt agreements • to ensure it meets the minimum requirements set by legislation regarding undertaking of contractual constructions. The Group defines the level of capital in proportion to the risk of its activities, it monitors the developments of the economic environment and their effect on the risk characteristics, and it manages the capital structure (relation of debt to equity) with the adjustment of the amount and maturity of debt, the issue of new shares or TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 268 the return of capital to shareholders, with the adjustment of the dividend and the sale of individual or a group of assets. The Group finances the construction of Wind Farms and other projects through a combination of capital, bank borrowings and government grants. Therefore, the Group monitors Loan Liabilities to Total Employed Capital ratio. As Loan Liabilities is defined the total of Short-term Loans, Long-term Loans and Long-term loan liabilities carried forward. Total Employed Capital is defined as total equity, loan liabilities, equity instruments similar to financial liabilities (Note 28), whose repayment follows repayment of the primary debt of the respective Wind Farms and is performed only to the extent the required performance is achieved from their operation, and government grants less the amount of cash not to be restricted or suspended for any reason, in addition to commitments linked with borrowing. The ratio at the end of 2021 and 2020 was as follows: Amounts in thousand € 31/12/2021 31/12/2020 * Short‐term loans 40.425 27.487 Long‐term loans 872.144 857.232 Long‐term liabilities carried forward 70.966 69.364 Loan liabilities 983.535 954.083 Total equity 431.643 496.094 Loan liabilities 983.535 954.083 Equity interests having a substance of financial liability − 281.263 Lease liabilities (Long & Short-term portion) 19.852 11.782 Grants 76.736 82.140 Subtotal 1.511.766 1.825.362 Less: Cash and cash equivalents 397.409 290.907 Restricted cash related with loans (Note 21) 61.192 53.246 Grants to be rebated (Note 27) (3.024) (3.024) Subtotal 455.577 341.129 Total employed capital 1.056.189 1.484.233 Loan Liabilities / Total employed capital 93% 64% * The comparative figures of the Group and the Company for the year 2020 have been revised by the impact from the changes of the accounting policy of IAS 19 (see Note 2.6.3). The Group has settled all its material contractual obligations arising from loan agreements. 46. EFFECTIVE LIENS TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 269 In order to cover financing needs regarding new projects, the Company and the Group issue notional collateral on its current assets as well as liens (usually in the form of mortgages) on its non-current assets as guarantees to the creditors. Additional information regarding such collaterals is presented in Notes 10 and 22. 47. CONTIGENT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES 47.1 Non audited Fiscal Years he Group's tax liabilities are not final as there are non-inspected tax years, which are analyzed in Note 5 to the accompanying Financial Statements. For non-inspected tax years there is the possibility additional taxes and surcharges to be imposed at the time they are inspected and finalized. The Group assesses annually any contingent liabilities that are expected to arise from the tax inspection of past years, making relevant provisions where appropriate. The Group has made provisions for non-inspected tax years of € 560 thousand ( 31/12/2020: € 560 thousand). Management considers that in addition to the provisions made, any tax amounts that may arise will not have a significant impact on the equity, results and cash flows of the Group and the Company. Pursuant to relevant tax provisions: a) paragraph 1 of article 84 of law 2238/1994 (non-inspected income tax cases), b) paragraph 1 of article 57 of law 2859/2000 (non-inspected VAT tax cases) and c) paragraph 5 of article 9 of Law 2523/1997 (imposition of penalties for income tax cases), the right of the State to levy tax for the fiscal years up to 201 5 has expired on 31/12/20 21 , without prejudice to special or exceptional provisions that may provide for a longer limitation period and subject to the provided conditions. In addition, in the absence of an existing Stamp Duty Code, the relevant State claim for stamp duty is subject to twenty-year limitation under Article 249 of the Civil Code for cases generated until FY 2013. From 1 / 1.2014 and after the entry into force of Law 4174/2013, the limitation period for the imposition of stamp duty is limited to 5 years since the procedures for its imposition and collection are now in line with the provisions of the Tax Procedures Code. In addition, on February 10, 2021, the company received a mandate for a partial tax audit for the years 2015 and 2016. This audit has commenced and the Management estimates that the audit is not expected to have a significant impact on the financial results of the Company and the Group. Tax Compliance Reports For the years 2011 to 2020, the Group companies operating in Greece and meeting the relevant eligible criteria for the tax audit by the Certified Public Auditors received a Tax Compliance Report in accordance with paragraph 5 of article 82 of Law 2238/1994 and article 65A par. 1 Law 4174/2013, without substantial differences arising. It is to be noted that according to the circular POL. 1006/2016, the companies that have been subject to the aforementioned special tax audit are not exempted from statutory tax audit by the competent tax authorities. Further, according to the relevant legislation, for the fiscal years 2016 onwards, the audit and the issuance of the Tax Compliance Report are optional. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 270 For the fiscal year 2021, for the Group companies operating in Greece that have been subject to the optional criteria, they meet the relevant eligibility criteria for auditing the Certified Auditors, this special audit for obtaining the Tax Compliance Report for the fiscal year 2019 is in The relevant tax certificates are foreseen to be issued after the publication of the accompanying Interim Condensed Financial Statements. The Tax Compliance Report will be received upon its final submission by the Certified Auditors to the tax authorities. At the completion of these tax audits, the Management does not expect any significant tax liabilities to arise beyond those that have been recognized in the financial statements of the Group and the Company. It should be noted that according to POL. 1192/2017, the right of the State to charge tax until the fiscal year 2015 has been limited unless the special provisions of 10 years, 15 years and 20 years of limitation apply. 47.2 Commitments from construction contracts The outstanding balance of the projects from construction contracts of the Group settles on 31/12/2021 σε ποσό € 84,0 million ( 31/12/2020:€ 107,8 million) which includes the outstanding balance (backlog) from concession contracts of € 80,1 million ( 31/12/2020: € 105.1 million). 47.3 Litigations The Company and its consolidated companies are involved (as defendant and plaintiff) in various litigations in the context of their normal operation. The Group makes provisions in the financial statements for outstanding legal cases when it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and that the amount can be estimated reliably. In this context, the Group recognized as of 31/12/2021 provisions of € 335 thousand ( 31/12/2020: € 335 thousand). Management, as well as legal consultants, consider that outstanding cases are expected to be settled without significant adverse effects on the consolidated financial position of the Group or the Company, or the results of their operation apart from the provision already made for litigations. In particular: Contingent Liabilities TERNA ENERGY S.A. • Legal action was taken against Terna Energy S.A. by the residents of the Municipality of Sitia, Lassithi, Crete regarding a total amount of € 2.523 k. for tort law property and moral damage due to the Company’s acquisition of a license for a locally established Wind Farm electricity production. According to the Company’s legal consultants, the lawsuit will not be settled successfully for the claimant. The lawsuit was to be heard on 15.10.2015, when it was postponed at the request of the plaintiffs for 07.12.2017. However, on 15.11.2017 the plaintiffs disclosed a similar lawsuit for the same requested amount, resigning from the previous lawsuit. The new lawsuit was heard on 7-3-2019. Regarding this hearing, Num. 1589/2020 decision was issued, dismissing the lawsuit. The opponents have not filed an appeal and the Management and the Company’s legal consultants assume that they will not do so. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 271 • On July 19 th , 2021, the Single-Member Court of First Instance in Karpenisi was notified of an Application for injunction measures dated 12/7/2021 and with filing number 23/2021 by natural persons against the Company, the hearing of which has been set for July 29 th , 2021 before the above court, with a request for an Interim Order, the hearing of which was scheduled for July 22 nd , 2021. The Interim Order issued on July 22 nd , 2021 was revoked on July 29 th , 2021 and the Application for Injunction Measures was set for September 10 th , 2021, when it was actually discussed. An intervention in favor of TERNA ENERGY SA by AIOLIKI STEREAS ELLADOS SA and by the Greek State against the opponents was exercised. The Single Member Court of First Instance in Karpenisi ruled that it was materially incompetent and referred the case to the Magistrates' Court. Since then nothing new has been announced to the Company. TERNA ENERGY S.A. and TERNA ENERGY AI GIORGIS S.A. • There is a legal lease dispute between an individual and the companies TERNA ENERGY S.A. and "TERNA ENERGY AI GIORGIS S.A.", regarding the lease of the island of Agios Georgios Attica from the other party to TERNA ENERGY. It is to be noted that on the island there is an installation of two wind farms of the subsidiary "TERNA ENERGY AI GIORGIS S.A.", with a total installed capacity of 69 MW. In particular, on 01.07.2019 the opponent filed a lawsuit to the Athens Single Member Court of First Instance against TERNA ENERGY S.A. and "TERNA ENERGY AI GIORGIS S.A.", demanding the return of the island of Agios Giorgis, Attica. The lawsuit was heard on September 6, 2019. Regarding the aforementioned lawsuit, No. 619/2020 decision of the above court was issued, which accepted the lawsuit, and stated that TERNA ENERGY S.A. should return the island of Agios Georgios to the plaintiff or whoever draws rights from it, including "TERNA ENERGY AI GIORGIS SA." (it is understood that TERNA ENERGY S.A. has transferred the Lease to this company, or has subleased a lease to it) and declared the decision temporarily enforceable. On 15.06.2020, "TERNA ENERGY S.A." and "TERNA ENERGY AI GIORGIS S.A." received a court order for voluntary compliance with the above decision, otherwise the court decision would be enforced. The companies "TERNA ENERGY S.A." and "TERNA ENERGY AI GIORGIS S.A." filed an application for suspension of execution of the above order, requesting an interim injunction, heard on 18 June 2020 and granted on 19 June 2020 until the hearing of the Application for Interim Measures on 28 July 2020, as well as an appeal against no. 619/2020 of decision, scheduled to be discussed on March 2, 2021, which, however, following a preference request of the other party, was heard on 13.10.2020. Regarding this hearing, no. 548/2021 decision of the Athens Court of Appeals was issued, accepting the appeal of the Group companies, annulling no. 619/2020 decision, re-hearing the lawsuit and rejecting it in its entirety. On 01/03/2021, the other party filed an Appeal which was discussed on 24 th September 2021. According to the Group's legal consultants, it is estimated that the appeal will not succeed. On 30/06/2020 the opponent filed a lawsuit ΕΑΚ 5258/2020 to the Athens Single Member Court of First Instance against “TERNA ENERGY S.A.” and "TERNA ENERGY AI GIORGIS S.A.", disclosed on 20/07/2020, under which, on one hand, it waives the lawsuit as of 13.01.2020 against the same parties and on the other hand, demands compensation of € 235.2 k due to tort, according to article 914 of the Civil Code, reporting the occupation of the island of Agios Giorgis and interruption of payment of rentals to the plaintiff. The lawsuit is being heard under the new Code of Civil Procedure and, therefore, the date of hearing has not been defined yet. According to the estimates of the Company's legal consultants, it is probable that this lawsuit will be rejected. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 272 On 10.07.2020 the other party filed a lawsuit against "TERNA ENERGY S.A." and "TERNA ENERGY AI GIORGIS S.A.", requesting the Application for Precautionary Measures, which was also heard on July 28, 2020, with a request for the termination of the Provisional Order as of 19.06.2020 of the Chairman of the Court of First Instance, Maria Skarpou, granted in respect of as of 16.06.2020 Application for Suspension of Enforcement of the companies "TERNA ENERGY S.A." and "TERNA ENERGY AI GIORGIS S.A." or - alternatively - continuation of validity of the above Interim Order under the condition of payment to the applicant of the amount of € 8.9 k per month as compensation for the use of its property.

The Company timely filed (GAK 108200/2019 and EAK 13627/2019) an Application for suspension of execution of the above payment order with a request for a temporary order, regarding which the temporary order as of 10.12.2019 of the Chairman of the Single Member Court of First Instance of Athens was issued, granting - temporarily and until the discussion of the above application on 11.03.2020 and given the course of the hearing - a suspension according to article 632 § 3 of the execution of the above payment order no. 10898/2019 setting the condition of the payment of guarantee by the Company amounting to € 50,000 within 15 working days from the publication of the temporary order.

Moreover, the Company has filed an Interruption Lawsuit against the Payment Order (GAK 108204/2019 and EAK 5972/2019) as above under no. 10898/2019. The application for precautionary measures was heard on 11.03.2020 and the validity of the effective interim injunction was extended until the issuance of the relative decision on it. No. 3804/2020 decision was issued, suspending the Payment Order until the issuance of a final decision regarding the case as of 19.12.2019, without the provision of a guarantee, therefore, we will request in court the return of the above letter of guarantee.

AEIFORIKI EPIRUS MAEES • Epirus Prefecture, with prot. no. 45431/142 / 1.4.2019 letter notified the company of a penalty amount of Euro 690,000 due to failure to make available the Epirus Prefecture Waste Treatment Plant Services at the Scheduled Date, in accordance with the terms of 21/07/2017 Agreement. On 23/07/2019, the 19/07/2019 Arbitration Appeal - Appointment of Arbitrator and Invitation of Arbitration Appointment for the Company was handed to Region of Epirus with which it was requested to be declared that the penalty of 690 was unlawfully imposed and to be repaid to the company with the default interest and the following amounts to be paid: (a) € 989 k as compensation for positive losses due to the prolongation of the working period, (b) € 697 k as compensation for loss of revenue during the above period, (c) € 325 k as compensation for TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 273 the cost of performing additional control tests for MEA Epirus, (d) € 817 k as compensation for loss of income during the first year of operation of MEA Epirus, (e) € 1,048 k as compensation for loss of income during the second year of operation of MEA Epirus. After the completion of the discussions, the Arbitration Court issued on March 10, 2022 the relevant decision according to which it awards in favor of the Group company, AEIFORIKI EPIRUS MAEES, the total amount of € 3,111 thousand with legal interest. According to the Partnership Agreement, the parties have waived the exercise of ordinary or legal remedies or appeals before any court or other judicial authority with potential jurisdiction and the relevant decision is an enforceable one without having to be declared as such by the courts. The company considers as probable scenario that the Epirus Regional Authority decides at a point in time to take legal action in order to avoid or delay the above payment of the above by litigation resolved obligations, but such attempt is unlikely to succeed.

EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING DATE OF STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION From 01/01/2022 until the preparation date of the present report, the following important events occurred: Amendment of the PPP Contract for the Integrated Waste Management of Peloponnese Region On 31/01/2022, the amendment of the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) Contract for the Integrated Waste Management of Peloponnese Region was signed, between the Peloponnese Region and Environmental Peloponnese, a member company of TERNA ENERGY Group, with which the modern, responsible, and fully integrated waste management will become a reality in the Peloponnese Region. The signing of the amended Contractual Agreement facilitates the Transitional Management period in the units of the project that have already been completed (Transitional Management Unit in Paleochouni, County of Arcadia and Transshipment Station in Nea Kios, County of Argolida), providing modern waste management services with the environmental protection as core priority and ensuring that public health requirements are met, offering at the same time multiple benefits to local communities which function as vital parts of the circular economy. TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 276 The above development marks the beginning of the end regarding the various environmental issues plaguing the Peloponnese Region for over 30 years, covering not only the current EU directives but also prospective ones, as the implementation of the project achieves high environmental benefits through the largest Integrated Waste Management PPP scheme currently under development in Greece. When the project is fully operational, landfill will be prevented and at least 65% of biodegradable materials will be utilized, 50,000 tons of liquid waste will be diverted from landfills, and green energy will be generated to serve the needs of 6,000 households, while avoiding release of 24,000 tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Under the project, a number of 800 jobs will be created during the construction period and of 200 permanent jobs during the operating period (27 years). These do not include the indirect job positions that will be generated (transport, marketing of recyclables, accommodation of personnel, environmental school excursions, etc.). In total, it is about an investment of 152 million euros (62.5 million originating from a NSRF (National Strategic Reference Framework) related subsidy), which provides for the construction and operation of the following: • three (3) Transitional Management Units (TMU) and three (3) Waste Treatment Units (WTU) with a total capacity of 200,000 tons / year • three (3) Landfills (XYTY) • two (2) Waste Transfer Stations (WTS) The above units TMU, WTU and XYTY, have been located in Arcadia, Messinia and Laconia and the WTS in Corinth and Argolida, so that the waste materials can be collected along a distance of less than 50 km from the capitals of the prefectures of the Region, and therefore helping to minimize transport costs and time requirements from the Municipalities. The project utilizing state-of-the-art technology implements most of the Regional Waste Management Plan (RWMP or PESDA) of Peloponnese, operates in parallel and in addition to the Local Recycling Plans at the source of the Municipalities and applies the best circular economy practices. The Transitional Waste Management in the Peloponnese Region started on 14/02/2022 A new era for waste management in the Peloponnese Region, Greece, started on 14/02/2022 following the commencement of the Transitional Waste Management of the new modernized Transitional Management Unit in Paleochouni, Arcadia, which will serve Arcadia, Corinth and Argolida. The transitional management will last up to 14 months and after the start of the integrated management, it will be the most modern waste management unit in the country and one of the most modern ones in Europe. Among the multiple advantages of the new unit is the fact that the Landfill (XYTY) is located close to the unit, which allows to minimize the transport requirements of waste and residuals. Special note to the war conflict in the region of Ukraine Terna Energy Group closely monitors the geopolitical developments in Ukraine which in any case do not have a direct impact on its size and financial performance. However, from these events, risks have already TERNA ENERGY GROUP Annual Financial Report for the Year 2021 (Amounts in thousands of Euros unless mentioned otherwise) 277 appeared, and new ones are expected to emerge. These include fluctuations in expected state revenues in the tourism sector, inflation pressures on energy and grain prices and uncertainty in the development of foreign direct investment, with all the above being factors that may affect fiscal flexibility and the wider macroeconomic climate and thus have inevitable repercussions on the operations of the Group. 49.
