1. NATURE AND ACTIVITIES OF THE COMPANY

EDP Renováveis, S.A. (hereinafter, "the Company") was incorporated by public deed under Spanish law on 4 December 2007 and commenced operations on the same date. Its registered office is at Plaza de la Gesta, 2, Oviedo.

On 18 March 2008, the shareholders agreed to change the corporate status of the Company from EDP Renováveis, S.L. to EDP Renováveis, S.A.

According to the Company's articles of association, the statutory activity of EDP Renováveis, S.A. comprises activities related to the electricity sector, specifically the planning, construction, maintenance and management of electricity production facilities, in particular those eligible for the special regime for electricity generation. The Company promotes and develops projects relating to energy resources and electricity production activities as well as managing and administering other companies' equity securities.

The Company can engage in its statutory activities directly or indirectly through ownership of shares or investments in companies or entities with identical or similar statutory activities.

On 28 January 2008, EDP-Energías de Portugal, S.A. informed the market and the general public that its directors had decided to launch a public share offering in EDP Renováveis, S.L. The Company completed its initial flotation in June 2008, with 22.5% of shares in the Company quoted on the Lisbon stock exchange.

As explained in note 8 the Company holds investments in subsidiaries. Consequently, in accordance with prevailing legislation, the Company is the parent of a group of companies. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Spain, consolidated annual accounts must be prepared to give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group, the results of operations and changes in its equity and cash flows. Details of investments in Group companies are provided in Appendix I.

The operating activity of the Group headed by the Company is carried out in Europe, the USA and Brazil through three subgroups headed by EDP Renewables Europe, S.L.U. (EDPR EU) in Europe, EDP Renewables North America, LLC (EDPR NA, formerly Horizon Wind Energy, LLC) in the USA and EDP Renováveis Brasil in Brazil. In 2010 the Group incorporated the subsidiary EDP Renewables Canada, Ltd. to provide a base for carrying out projects in Canada.

The Company belongs to the EDP Group, of which the parent is EDP Energías de Portugal, S.A., with registered office at Avenida 24 de julho, 12, Lisbon.

In 2012, China Three Gorges Corporation (CTG) acquired 780,633,782 ordinary shares in EDP from Parpública – Participações Públicas (S.G.P.S.), S.A., representing 21.35% of the share capital and voting rights of EDP Energías de Portugal S.A., the majority shareholder of the Company.

Under the agreements for its entry into the share capital of the EDP Group, CTG undertook to make minority investments totalling Euros 2,000 million in EDP Renováveis Group assets representing an installed capacity of 1.5 GW (900 MW in service and 600 MW under construction). A part of these investments was completed in 2013 through the sale to CTG of 49% of the shares in EDP Renováveis Portugal, S.A. for an amount of Euros 257.9 million.

Additional investments were completed in 2015 through the sale to CTG of non-controlling interests in wind farms in Brazil. To attain a 49% interest in the Brazilian wind farms, CTG will carry out investments totalling Brazilian Reais 385 million, including contributions of capital that have already been made and future contributions amounting to Brazilian Reais 86.8 million for construction projects. This transaction, carried out in the framework of the agreement entered into between CTG and EDP, encompasses a total of 84 MW in operation and 237 MW under construction.

The EDP Renováveis Group carried out a number of operations effective from 1 January 2013 as part of the Group's financial restructuring, aimed at maximising the efficiency of financing between Group companies by concentrating the Group's financial activities in EDP Renováveis Servicios Financieros, S.L. and transferring the financial activities carried out by the Company prior to that date to this company.

Within the framework of this restructuring, EDP Renováveis, S.A. made a non-monetary contribution of Euros 12 million to EDP Renováveis Servicios Financieros, S.L., consisting of loans extended to the subsidiaries of the EDP Renewables Europe S.L. subgroup and the loans obtained from EDP Finance BV. As part of this operation, the EDP Renováveis Group also transferred its Finances department to the new financial entity.

On 23 February 2016 the directors authorised the issue of the consolidated annual accounts of EDP Renováveis, S.A. and subsidiaries for 2015 under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) (24 February 2015 for 2014), which show consolidated profit of Euros 245,491 thousand and consolidated equity of Euros 6,834,110 thousand (Euros 177,887 thousand and Euros 6,330,759 thousand in 2014). The consolidated annual accounts will be filed at the Asturias Mercantile Registry.

ANNUAL ACCOUNTS

08 2015

A. TRUE AND FAIR VIEW

The annual accounts for 2015 have been prepared on the basis of the accounting records of EDP Renováveis, S.A., in accordance with prevailing legislation and the Spanish General Chart of Accounts to give a true and fair view of the equity and financial position at 31 December 2015 and results of operations, changes in equity, and cash flows for the year then ended.

The directors consider that the accompanying individual annual accounts for 2015, authorised for issue on 23 February 2016, will be approved with no changes by the shareholders at their annual general meeting.

B. COMPARATIVE INFORMATION

The balance sheet, income statement, statement of changes in equity, statement of cash flows and the notes thereto for 2015 include comparative figures for 2014, which formed part of the annual accounts approved by shareholders at the annual general meeting held on 9 April 2015.

However, as permitted by the resolution issued on 29 January 2016 by the Spanish Accounting and Auditing Institute on the information to be included in the notes to annual accounts regarding average payment periods for suppliers, note 17 does not include comparative information for 2014.

C. FUNCTIONAL AND PRESENTATION CURRENCY

The figures disclosed in the annual accounts are expressed in thousands of Euros, the Company's functional and presentation currency.

D. CRITICAL ISSUES REGARDING THE VALUATION AND ESTIMATION OF RELEVANT UNCERTAINTIES AND JUDGEMENTS USED WHEN APPLYING ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

Relevant accounting estimates and judgements and other estimates and assumptions have to be made when applying the Company's accounting principles to prepare the annual accounts. A summary of the items requiring a greater degree of judgement or which are more complex, or where the assumptions and estimates made are significant to the preparation of the annual accounts, is as follows:

Relevant accounting estimates and assumptions

The Company tests investments in Group companies for impairment in circumstances where there are indications of impairment. An asset is impaired when its carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, the latter of which is understood as the higher of the asset's value in use and fair value less costs to sell. The Company generally uses cash flow discounting methods to calculate these values. Discounted cash flow calculations are based on projections in the budgets approved by management. The flows take into consideration past experience and represent management's best estimate of future market performance. The key assumptions employed when determining fair value less costs to sell and value in use include growth rates in accordance with best estimates of rises in electricity prices in each country, the weighted average cost of capital and tax rates. The estimates, including the methodology used, could have a significant impact on values and impairment.

The fair value of financial instruments is based on market quotations when available. Otherwise, fair value is based on prices applied in recent, similar transactions in market conditions or on evaluation methodologies using discounted future cash flow techniques, considering market conditions, time value, the profitability curve and volatility factors. These methods may require assumptions or judgements in estimating fair value.

Changes in accounting estimates

Although estimates are calculated by the Company's directors based on the best information available at 31 December 2015, future events may require changes to these estimates in subsequent years. Any effect on the annual accounts of adjustments to be made in subsequent years would be recognised prospectively.

E. FINANCIAL POSITION AND EQUITY

The balance sheet at 31 December 2015 shows that the Company has negative working capital of Euros 77.5 million (Euros 159.3 million in 2014). However, the Company has current liabilities totalling Euros 204 million with Group companies, of which Euros 56 million relates to current account contracts that are automatically renewable for one-year periods and Euros 139.2 million reflects the fair value of one of the derivatives arranged with EDP Energías de Portugal Sucursal en España S.A., which is used to apply hedge accounting to the investment in EDP Renewables North America, LLC. Moreover, the Company is the parent of a group of companies that generate positive operating cash flows, and as such, the directors consider that the Group will generate sufficient cash flows to meet its obligations in the short term.

Consequently, the directors have prepared these annual accounts on a going concern basis.

3. DISTRIBUTION OF PROFIT

The proposed distribution of 2015 profit to be submitted to the shareholders for approval at their annual general meeting is as follows:

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS, BALANCES AND CASH FLOWS

Foreign currency transactions have been translated into Euros using the spot exchange rate prevailing at the transaction date.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies have been translated into Euros at the closing rate, while non-monetary assets and liabilities measured at historical cost have been translated at the exchange rate prevailing at the transaction date.

In the statement of cash flows, cash flows from foreign currency transactions have been translated into Euros at the exchange rates at the dates the cash flows occur.

The effect of exchange rate fluctuations on cash and cash equivalents denominated in foreign currencies is recognised separately in the statement of cash flows as effect of exchange rate fluctuations.

Exchange gains and losses arising on the settlement of foreign currency transactions and the translation into Euros of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss.

B. INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Computer software is measured at purchase price and carried at cost, less any accumulated amortisation and impairment. Computer software is amortised by allocating the depreciable amount on a systematic basis over its useful life, which has been estimated at five years from the asset entering normal use.

Capitalised personnel expenses of employees who install computer software are recognised as self-constructed assets in the income statement.

Computer software acquired and produced by the Company, including website costs, is recognised when it meets the following conditions:

Payments attributable to the performance of the project can be measured reliably.
The allocation, assignment and timing of costs for each project are clearly defined.
There is evidence of the project's technical success, in terms of direct operation or sale to a third party of the results thereof once completed and if a market exists.
The economic and commercial feasibility of the project is reasonably assured.
Financing to develop the project, the availability of adequate technical and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the resulting intangible asset are reasonably assured.
There is an intention to complete the intangible asset for its use or sale.

Computer software maintenance costs are charged as expenses when incurred.

C. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost of acquisition. Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment.

Property, plant and equipment are depreciated by allocating the depreciable amount of the asset on a systematic basis over its useful life. The depreciable amount is the cost of an asset, less its residual value. The Company determines the depreciation charge separately for each component of an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the asset and with a useful life that differs from the remainder of the asset.

Property, plant and equipment are depreciated using the following criteria:

	DEPRECIATION METHOD	ESTIMATED YEARS OF USEFUL LIFE
Other installations	Straight-line	10
Furniture	Straight-line	10
Information technology equipment	Straight-line	4

D. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

This category also includes the derivative financial instruments described in note 11, which are initially recognised at fair value. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition or issue are recognised as an expense when incurred.

After initial recognition, they are recognised at fair value through profit or loss. Fair value is reduced by transaction costs incurred on sale or disposal. Accrual interest and dividends are recognised separately.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables comprise trade and non-trade receivables with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market other than those classified in other financial asset categories. These assets are initially recognised at fair value, including transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Investments in Group companies

Investments in Group companies are initially recognised at cost, which is equivalent to the fair value of the consideration given, excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at cost net of any accumulated impairment. The cost of investments in Group companies acquired before 1 January 2010 includes any transaction costs incurred.

Investments in Group companies denominated in foreign currency included in hedges of net investments in foreign operations are updated for exchange rate fluctuations (see note 4 l).

Investments in Group companies acquired through a non-monetary contribution from another Group company are measured at the pre-transaction value in the individual annual accounts of the contributing company.

Non-monetary contributions in exchange for investments in the equity of other companies

In non-monetary contributions of businesses (including investments in Group companies) to other Group companies, equity investments received are measured at the transaction date at the higher of the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities transferred in the individual annual accounts of the contributing company and the amount representative of the percentage of interest in the equity of the business contributed. Gains or losses deferred in recognised income and expense associated with the assets and liabilities conveyed continue to be recognised in equity but are linked to the investment received.

Interest and dividends

Interest is recognised using the effective interest method.

Dividends from investments in equity instruments are recognised when the Company is entitled to receive them. If the dividends are clearly derived from profits generated prior to the acquisition date because amounts higher than the profits generated by the investment since acquisition have been distributed, the carrying amount of the investment is reduced.

Pursuant to requested ruling number 2 issued by the Spanish Accounting and Auditing Institute, published in its Official Gazette number 78, for entities whose ordinary activity is the holding of shares in group companies and the financing of investees, the dividends and other income – coupons, interest – earned on financing extended to investees, as well as profits obtained from the disposal of investments, constitute revenue in the income statement.

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or have been transferred and the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.

Impairment of financial assets

Impairment of financial assets carried at amortised cost

The amount of the impairment loss of financial assets carried at amortised cost is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate.

The impairment loss is recognised in profit and loss and may be reversed in subsequent periods if the decrease can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment has been recognised. The loss can only be reversed to the limit of the amortised cost of the assets had the impairment loss not been recognised

Investments in Group companies

An asset is impaired when its carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, the latter of which is understood as the higher of the asset's value in use and fair value less costs to sell.

Value in use is calculated based on the Company's share of the present value of future cash flows expected to be derived from ordinary activities and from the final disposal of the asset.

The carrying amount of the investment includes any monetary item that is receivable or payable for which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future, excluding trade receivables or trade payables.

In subsequent years, reversals of impairment losses in the form of increases in the recoverable amount are recognised, up to the limit of the carrying amount that would have been determined for the investment if no impairment loss had been recognised.

The recognition or reversal of an impairment loss is recorded in the income statement.

Impairment of an investment is limited to the amount of the investment, except when contractual, legal or constructive obligations have been assumed by the Company or payments have been made on behalf of the companies

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities, including trade and other payables, are initially recognised at fair value less any transaction costs directly attributable to the issue of the financial liability. After initial recognition, liabilities classified under this category are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

The Company derecognises all or part of a financial liability when it either discharges the liability by paying the creditor, or is legally released from primary responsibility for the liability either by process of law or by the creditor.

Fair value

The fair value is the amount for which an asset can be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm's length transaction. If available, quoted prices in an active market are used to determine fair value. Otherwise, the Company calculates fair value using recent transaction prices or, if insufficient information is available, generally accepted valuation techniques such as discounting expected cash flows.

E. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and demand deposits in financial institutions. They also include other short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. An investment normally qualifies as a cash equivalent when it has a maturity of less than three months from the date of acquisition.

The Company classifies cash pooling current accounts with Group companies under this heading.

The Company recognises cash payments and receipts for financial assets and financial liabilities in which turnover is quick on a net basis in the statement of cash flows. Turnover is considered to be quick when the period between the date of acquisition and maturity does not exceed six months.

F. PROVISIONS

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal, contractual, constructive or tacit) as a result of a past event; it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account all risks and uncertainties surrounding the amount to be recognised as a provision and, where the time value of money is material, the financial effect of discounting provided that the expenditure to be made each period can be reliably estimated. The discount rate is a pre-tax rate that reflects the time value of money and the specific risks for which future cash flows associated with the provision have not been adjusted at each reporting date.

The financial effect of provisions is recognised as a finance cost in the income statement.

If it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle an obligation, the provision is reversed.

G. INCOME TAX

The income tax expense or tax income for the year comprises current tax and deferred tax.

Current tax assets or liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be paid to or recovered from the taxation authorities, using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantially enacted at the reporting date.

Current and deferred tax are recognised as income or an expense and included in profit or loss for the year, except to the extent that the tax arises from a transaction or event which is recognised, in the same or a different year, directly in equity, or from a business combination.

The Company files consolidated tax returns as part of the 385/08 group headed by EDP Energías de Portugal, S.A. Sucursal en España.

In addition to the factors to be considered for individual taxation, set out previously, the following factors are taken into account when determining the accrued income tax expense for the companies forming the consolidated tax group:

Temporary and permanent differences arising from the elimination of profits and losses on transactions between Group companies, derived from the process of determining consolidated taxable income.
Deductions and credits corresponding to each company forming the consolidated tax group. For these purposes, deductions and credits are allocated to the company that carried out the activity or obtained the profit necessary to obtain the right to the deduction or tax credit.

Temporary differences arising from the elimination of profits and losses on transactions between tax group companies are allocated to the company which recognised the profit/loss and are valued using the tax rate of that company.

A reciprocal credit and debit arises between the companies that contribute tax losses to the consolidated Group and the rest of the companies that offset those losses. Where a tax loss cannot be offset by the other consolidated Group companies, these tax credits for loss carried forward are recognised as deferred tax assets using the applicable recognition criteria, considering the tax group as a taxable entity.

The Parent of the Group records the total consolidated income tax payable (recoverable) with a debit (credit) to receivables (payables) from/to Group companies and associates.

The amount of the debt (credit) relating to the subsidiaries is recognised with a credit (debit) to payables (receivables) to/from Group companies and associates.

Taxable temporary differences

Taxable temporary differences are recognised in all cases except where they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable income.

Deductible temporary differences

Deductible temporary differences are recognised provided that it is probable that sufficient taxable income will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilised, unless the differences arise from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable income.

Tax planning opportunities are only considered when assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets and if the Company intends to use these opportunities or it is probable that they will be utilised.

Measurement

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the years when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantially enacted. The tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets or liabilities are also reflected in the measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Offset and classification

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised in the balance sheet under non-current assets or liabilities, irrespective of the expected date of recovery or settlement

H. CLASSIFICATION OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES AS CURRENT AND NON-CURRENT

The Company classifies assets and liabilities in the balance sheet as current and non-current. Current assets and liabilities are determined as follows:

Assets are classified as current when they are expected to be realised or are intended for sale or consumption in the Company's normal operating cycle, they are held primarily for the purpose of trading, they are expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting date or are cash or a cash equivalent, unless the assets may not be exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.
Liabilities are classified as current when they are expected to be settled in the Company's normal operating cycle, they are held primarily for the purpose of trading, they are due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting date or the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.
Financial liabilities are classified as current when they are due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting date, even if the original term was for a period longer than 12 months, and an agreement to refinance or to reschedule payments on a long-term basis is completed after the reporting date and before the annual accounts are authorised for issue.

I. ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES

Environmental assets

Non-current assets acquired by the Company to minimise the environmental impact of its activity and to protect and improve the environment, including the reduction and elimination of future pollution from the Company's activities, are recognised as property, plant and equipment in the balance sheet at purchase price or cost of production and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

Environmental expenses

Environmental expenses are the costs derived from managing the environmental effects of the Company's operations and existing environmental commitments. These include expenses relating to the prevention of pollution caused by ordinary activities, waste treatment and disposal, decontamination, restoration, environmental management or environmental audit.

Expenses derived from environmental activities are recognised as operating expenses in the period in which they are incurred.

Environmental provisions

The Company makes an environmental provision when expenses are probable or certain to arise but the amount or timing is unknown. Where necessary, provision is also made for environmental work arising from any legal or contractual commitments and for those commitments acquired for the prevention and repair of environmental damage.

J. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Transactions between Group companies are recognised at the fair value of the consideration given or received. The difference between this value and the amount agreed is recognised in line with the underlying economic substance of the transaction.

K. HEDGE ACCOUNTING

Derivative financial instruments which qualify for hedge accounting are initially measured at fair value, plus any transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, or less any transaction costs directly attributable to the issue of the financial instruments.

The Company undertakes fair value hedges, cash flow hedges and hedges of net investments in foreign operations. The Company has also opted to record hedges of foreign currency risk of a firm commitment as a cash flow hedge.

At the inception of the hedge the Company formally designates and documents the hedging relationships and the objective and strategy for undertaking the hedges. Hedge accounting is only applicable when the hedge is expected to be highly effective at the inception of the hedge and in subsequent years in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows attributable to the hedged risk, throughout the period for which the hedge was designated (prospective

analysis), and the actual effectiveness is within a range of 80%-125% (retrospective analysis) and can be reliably measured.

The Company hedges net investments in foreign operations in relation to its investment in the Group companies EDP Renewables North America, LLC, EDP Renováveis Brasil S.A. and EDP Renewables Canada, Ltd.

L. HEDGES OF A NET INVESTMENT IN A FOREIGN OPERATION

The Company hedges the foreign currency risk arising from investments in Group companies denominated in foreign currency. The portion of gains or losses on the hedging instrument or on the changes in the exchange of the monetary item used as the hedging instrument is recognised as exchange gains or losses in income statement. Gains or losses on investments related to the foreign currency amount of the underlying in the annual accounts are recognised as exchange gains or losses in profit and loss with a valuation adjustment for the effective part of the hedge.

M. LONG- AND SHORT-TERM EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

The Company recognises the expected cost of profit-sharing and bonus plans when it has a present legal or constructive obligation to make such payments as a result of past events and a reliable estimate of the obligation can be made.

7. RISK MANAGEMENT POLICY

A. FINANCIAL RISK FACTORS

The Company's activities are exposed to various financial risks: market risk (including currency risk and fair value interest rate risk), credit risk, liquidity risk, and cash flow interest rate risk. The Company's global risk management programme focuses on uncertainty in the financial markets and aims to minimise potential adverse effects on the Company's profits. The Company uses derivatives to mitigate certain risks.

The directors of the Company are responsible for defining general risk management principles and establishing exposure limits. The Company's financial risk management is subcontracted to the Finance Department of EDP-Energías de Portugal, S.A. in accordance with the policies approved by the board of directors. The subcontracted service includes the identification and evaluation of hedging instruments.

All operations involving derivative financial instruments are subject to prior approval from the board of directors, which sets the parameters of each operation and approves the formal documents describing the objectives of the operation.

Currency Risk

The Company operates internationally and is therefore exposed to currency risk when operating with foreign currencies, especially with regard to the US Dollar, the Brazilian Real, the Canadian Dollar and the Polish Zloty. Currency risk is associated with recognised assets and liabilities, and net investments in foreign operations.

The Company holds investments in Group companies denominated in a foreign currency, which are exposed to currency risk. Currency risk affecting these investments is mitigated primarily through derivative financial instruments and borrowings in the corresponding foreign currencies.

Details of hedged financial assets and the derivative financial instruments obtained to hedge them are provided in notes 8 and 11.

Details of financial assets and liabilities in foreign currencies and transactions in foreign currencies are provided in notes 8, 10, 16 and 21.

At 31 December 2014 and 2013, had the Euro risen/fallen by 10% against the US Dollar, with the other variables remaining constant, the effect on pre-tax profit would have been as follows:

THOUSANDS OF EUROS

	2015	2014

EUR/USD exchange rate rose by 10%	(1,019)	84
EUR/USD exchange rate fell by 10%	1,246	(103)

This effect essentially derives from the translation of debt in foreign currencies.

Credit Risk

The Company is not significantly exposed to credit risk as the majority of its balances and transactions are with Group companies. As the counterparties of derivative financial instruments are Group companies, and the counterparties of their derivative financial instruments are highly solvent banks, the Company is not subject to significant counterparty default risk. Guarantees or other derivatives are therefore not requested in this type of operation.

The Company has documented its financial operations in accordance with international standards. The majority of its operations with derivative financial instruments are therefore contracted under "ISDA Master Agreements", which facilitate the transfer of instruments in the market.

Details of financial assets exposed to credit risk are provided in note 10.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will be unable to comply with its financial commitments on maturity. The Company's approach in managing liquidity risk is to guarantee as far as possible that liquidity will always be available to pay its debts before they mature, in normal conditions and during financial difficulties, without incurring unacceptable losses or compromising the Company's reputation.

Compliance with the liquidity policy ensures that contracted commitments are paid, maintaining sufficient credit facilities. The EDP Renováveis Group manages liquidity risk by arranging and maintaining credit facilities with its majority shareholder, or directly with domestic and international entities in the market, under optimal conditions, to ensure access to the financing required to continue its activities.

Details of financial assets and financial liabilities by contractual maturity date are provided in notes 10 and 16.

Cash flow and fair value interest rate risks

In light of the non-monetary contribution mentioned in notes 8.a, in 2015 and 2014 the Company does not have a considerable amount of remunerated assets and as a result, income and cash flows from operating activities are not significantly affected by fluctuations in market interest rates.

Interest rate risk arises from non-current borrowings, which are extended by Group companies. The loans have fixed interest rates, exposing the Company to fair value risks.

Details of hedged financial assets and the derivative financial instruments obtained to hedge them are provided in notes 8 and 11.

17. LATE PAYMENTS TO SUPPLIERS. "REPORTING REQUIREMENT"

Law 3/2004 of 29 December 2004 established measures to combat late payment in commercial transactions. It was amended by additional provision three of Law 15/2010 of 5 July 2010, which was itself amended by the Spanish Companies Act (SCA) on the improvement of corporate governance. On 3 December 2014, the SCA was amended by final provision two of Law 31/2014 of 3 December 2014, which requires all commercial companies to expressly disclose payment terms to suppliers in the notes to the annual accounts.

The following table shows the average payment period for suppliers, payment period for settled transactions, payment period for outstanding transactions, total amount paid and total amount outstanding at the reporting date:

The Company files consolidated income tax and value added tax returns. The parent of this consolidated tax group is EDP-Energías de Portugal, S.A. Sucursal en España. At 31 December 2015 the Company has recognised income tax receivable of Euros 14,424 thousand (Euros 19,579 thousand in 2014) and VAT payable of Euros 1,663 thousand (Euros 1,106 thousand receivable in 2014). These amounts have been recognised under other receivables and other payables in the balance sheet (see notes 10 (d) and 16 (d)).

At the date of preparation of these annual accounts, the consolidated tax group's income taxes for 2009 to 2011 are being inspected by the taxation authorities. The VAT returns for June 2010 to December 2011 are also being inspected. The directors of the Company do not expect that this tax inspection will have any impact on the equity of the Company.

In accordance with prevailing legislation, taxes cannot be considered definitive until they have been inspected by the taxation authorities or the inspection period has elapsed. Taking into account the aforementioned inspection period, and the tax inspections currently underway, at 31 December 2015 the Company has the following main applicable taxes open to inspection:

TAX	YEARS OPEN TO INSPECTION
Income tax	2009-2014
Value added tax	2010-2015
Personal income tax	2012-2015
Capital gains tax	2012-2015
Tax on Economic Activities	2012-2015
Social Security	2012-2015
Non-residents	2012-2015

Due to different possible interpretations of prevailing tax legislation, additional tax liabilities could arise in the event of inspection. In any case, the Parent's directors do not consider that any such liabilities that could arise would have a significant effect on the annual accounts.

A. INCOME TAX

The Company files consolidated tax returns as part of the group headed by EDP Energías de Portugal, S.A. Sucursal en España.

Increases in permanent differences in 2015 reflect impairment of the investment held in South Africa Wind & Solar Power S.L. and other provisions.

19. ENVIRONMENTAL INFORMATION

Given that the Company's activities to develop, construct and operate energy production facilities are carried out through Group companies rather than directly, the Company does not consider it necessary to make investments to prevent or correct any impact on the environment or make any environmental provisions.

However, on behalf of Group companies, the Company has invested in a number of environmental studies required by prevailing legislation during the development of new facilities and taken the appropriate preventative, corrective and

supplementary measures, which have been recognised as an increase in property, plant and equipment under construction.

These annual accounts do not include any environmental costs.

The directors consider that no significant environmental contingencies exist.

We aim to maintain an open and transparent dialogue with our stakeholders in order to build and strengthen trust, promote information and knowledge sharing, anticipate challenges and identify cooperation opportunities.

We do so through four main guiding commitments: Comprehend, Communicate, Collaborate and Trust. These commitments underlie a policy that aims to go beyond mere compliance with legal requirements, and to truly engage our different stakeholder groups.

Who is an EDPR stakeholder? Any person or entity that has an influence on or is influenced by our activities. They can be categorized into four segments: Democracy, Value Chain, Market and Social and Territorial Context.

The image below lists the different stakeholder groups, using Spain as an example:

IN SPAIN MOST STAKEHOLDERS RANK HIGH EDPR'S PERFORMANCE

EDPR conducted its first Stakeholder Survey for the Spanish market in 2015 in order to better understand how to improve communication and relationships with its stakeholders. The study was conducted over a three months period, surveying opinions from 12 different groups of stakeholders, including associations, the media, universities, suppliers, analysts, banks, investors, NGOs, city administrators, regional administrators, landowners and employees. The information was collected through interviews conducted in person, on the phone, by mail, and online.

Similar to the survey conducted in Portugal by the EDP Group, this study looked at soft indicators such as satisfaction, relationship, credibility, relevance of issues for the stakeholder, delivery, transparecy, among others. But it also included new indicators, such as the degree of influence on the decision making process, as well as the relevance of issues for EDPR's business.

The analysis of the survey found that EDPR is recognized for its support of renewable energies, safety in energy generation and its quality R&D investments. Stakeholders also reported as some of the most important factors transparency, trustworthiness and a low environmental impact.

Surveying stakeholders helps us understand what influences our relationships with them, and how we can improve these relationships. In order to implement what we learned from the survey, each business unit will regularly report on their most relevant stakeholders and the status of the relationship with each group. We are also working to enact a stakeholder management plan, which will set actionable goals within a set time frame, to generate value for both stakeholders and EDPR.

HOW CAN WE IMPROVE OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH STAKEHOLDERS AND THEIR PERCEPTION TO POSITIVELY IMPACT EDPR BUSINESS?

As pointed out, the Spanish study follows a previous survey conducted in Portugal for the entire EDP Group. In the future, we plan to conduct similar studies in all EDPR markets around the world with the goal of further develop a global vision of the company's relationships with stakeholders across its different locations.

3.2. GOVERNANCE MODEL

Corporate governance is about promoting corporate fairness, transparency and accountability. EDPR's corporate governance structure specifies the shareholders, board of directors, managers and other stakeholders' rights and responsibilities and spells out the rules and procedures for making decisions on corporate affairs. It also incorporates the organization's strategic response to risk management.

EDPR's corporate governance model is designed to ensure transparency and accountability through a clear separation of duties between management and supervision of the company's activities.

The corporate governance structure adopted is the one in effect in Spain. It comprises a General Meeting of Shareholders and a Board of Directors that represents and manages the company. As required by the law and established in the company's articles of association, the Board of Directors has set up four specialized committees. These are the Executive Committee, the Audit and Control Committee, the Nominations and Remunerations Committee and the Committee on Related-Party Transactions.

This governance structure and composition was chosen to adapt the company's corporate governance model also to the Portuguese legislation and it seeks, insofar it is compatible with the Spanish law, to correspond to the socalled "Anglo-Saxon" model set forth in the Portuguese Commercial Companies Code, in which the management body is a Board of Directors, and the supervision and control duties are of the responsibility of a separate body, a Supervisory Board.

EDPR's model attempts then to establish compatibility between two different systems of company law, through a Nominations and Remunerations Committee and Audit and Control Committee of independent members, although not exclusively separate from the Board of Directors ("BoD").

General Shareholders' Meeting

General Shareholders' Meeting is the body where the shareholders participate, it has the power to deliberate and adopt decisions, by majority, on matters reserved by the law or the articles of association.

Board of Directors

EDPR's BoD shall consist of no less than 5 and no more than 17 Directors, including a Chairperson. Currently it is composed by 16 board members, out of which 9 are independent. BoD members are elected for 3 years period and may be re-elected for equal periods.

EDPR's BoD has the broadest power for the administration, management and governance of the company, with no limitations other than the responsibilities expressly and exclusively invested in the General Shareholders Meeting, in the company's articles of association or in the applicable law. Its members must meet at least 4 times a year, preferably once a quarter. Nonetheless, the Chairperson, on his own initiative or that of 3 Directors, shall convene a meeting whenever he deems fit for the company's interests.

Executive Committee

EDPR's Executive Committee (EC) is composed by five members, including a Chief Executive Officer (CEO). The CEO coordinates the implementation of the BOD decisions and the Corporate and General Management functions, partially assigning those to the other executive officers, namely: the Chief Financial Officer (CFO), the Chief Operating Officer for Europe and Brazil (COO EU & BR) and the Chief Operating Officer for North America (COO NA).

The CFO proposes and ensures the implementation of the financial policy and management, including financial negotiation, management and control, cash management optimization and financial risk management policy proposal; he also coordinates and prepares the business plan and the budget, manages the financial statements reporting analyses the operational and financial performance and coordinates procurement function and relations with key suppliers while ensuring the implementation of the procurement strategy and policy.

The COO EU & BR and the COO NA coordinate their platforms by developing, establishing and implementing the strategic plan for the renewable energy business in their respective platforms, in accordance with the guidelines set by the BOD; they are also responsible for planning, organizing and managing resources, controlling, measuring and improving the management of projects and subsidiary companies to achieve expected results to make EDPR a leader in the renewable energy sector in their respective platforms.

Nominations and Remunerations, Related-Party Transactions and Audit and Control Committees

In addition to EC referred above, EDPR governance model contemplates permanent bodies with an informative, advisory and supervisory tasks independently from the BoD, such as:

Remuneration Policy

EDPR governance model is reinforced by an incentive structure with transparent remuneration through variable remuneration based on key performance indicators.

For further detailed information regarding the responsibilities and roles of the different social bodies, as well as 2015 activity, please refer to the Corporate Governance section, at the end of this report. The company also posts its up-to-date articles of association and regulations at www.edpr.com.

3.3. ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE

The organization structure is designed to accomplish the strategic management of the company but also a transversal operation of all the business units, ensuring alignment with the defined strategy, optimizing support processes and creating synergies.

EDPR is organized around three main elements: a corporate Holding and two platforms that group all the business units where the company has presence.

ORGANIZATIONAL MODEL PRINCIPLES

The model is designed with several principles in mind to ensure optimal efficiency and value creation.

Accountability alignment	Critical KPIs and span of control are aligned at project, country, platform and holding level to ensure accountability tracking and to take advantage of complementarities derived from end-to-end process vision.
Client-service	Corporate areas function as competence support centers and are internal service providers to all business units for all geographical non-specific needs. Business priorities and needs are defined by local businesses and best practices are defined and distributed by corporate units.
Lean organization	Execution of activities at holding level are held only when significant value is derived, coherently with defined EDPR holding role.
Collegial decision making	Ensures proper counter-balance dynamics to ensure multiple-perspective challenge across functions.
Clear and transparent	Platforms organizational models remain similar to allow for: - Easy coordination, vertically (holding-platforms) and horizontally (across platforms);

EDPR HOLDING ROLE

EDPR Holding seizes value creation, through the dissemination of best practices in the organization and the standardization of corporate processes to the platforms and the business units to improve efficiency. Its internal coordination model and interface with EDP group impacts both the company's processes - activities performed, processes steps, inputs and outputs, and decision-making mechanisms -, and the company's structure, with an alignment of functions and responsibilities with the processes configuration.

Scalability and replicability to ensure efficient integration of future growth.

The EDPR Holding structure was designed to accomplish two fundamental roles: Strategic Management and Transversal Operation.

Strategic Management covers to a) adopt a coordination model within the group, supporting the Executive Committee in the definition and control of the strategy policies and objectives; b) define specific strategic initiatives; c) review the accomplishment of the company's business plan; d) define transversal policies, rules and procedures; e) control key performance indicators.

Transversal Operation deals to i) ensure the alignment of all the platforms with the defined strategy; ii) capture synergies and optimize support processes; and iii) systematically and progressively concentrate supporting activities in shared service business units with the group.

INTEGRITY AND ETHICS

Ethical behaviour is absolutely essential for the functioning of the economy. EDPR recognizes its importance and complexity, and is committed to address ethics and its compliance. But is employees' responsibility to comply with ethical obligations.

GOVERNANCE MODEL FOR ETHICS

Ethics are the cornerstone of EDPR strategy, to the extent that EDPR has a Code of Ethics and an Anti-Corruption regulation that go beyond just defining the company principles to be adopted, but also how employees and any other service provider working on behalf of EDPR should behave when dealing with the company stakeholders. The Code of Ethics has its own regulation that defines a process and channels to report any potential incident or doubt on the application of the code. The Ethics Ombudsman is behind this communication channel, and to analyse and present to the Ethics Committee any potential ethical problem. The code is communicated and distributed to all employees and interested parties, and complemented with tailored training sessions.

HOW DO WE APPLY OUR CODE OF ETHICS?

EDPR's Code of Ethics applies to all company employees, regardless of their position in the organization and working location, and they all must comply with. Our suppliers should be aligned with the spirit of our Code of Ethics, and this is reflected in our procurement policies.

The Ethics Ombudsman plays an essential role in the ethics process. He guarantees impartiality and objectivity in registering and documenting all complaints of ethical nature submitted to him. He monitors their progress and ensures that the identity of the complainants remains confidential, while entering into contact with them whenever appropriate, until the case is closed.

Identify an alleged violation of the code of ethics	Reports of alleged violations of the Code of Ethics must be submitted to the Ethics Ombudsman, indicating personal data and a detailed description of the situation.
Ombudsman performs a summary investigation	Ethics Ombudsman first confirms the events reported and submits a preliminary report on the initial confirmations to the Ethics Committee.
Ethics Committee decides if the complaint portrays a violation	Ethics Committee analyses every situation reported and decides as to whether it should be classified as a violation of the Code of Ethics.
When a violation is confirmed, the Committee opens an investigation	When conducting an investigation, the Company shall abide by the law and its own in-house rules. After the investigation is complete, the Committee decides whether any corrective or disciplinary action is required.

In 2015 there were no communications to the Ethics Ombudsman regarding any irregularity at EDPR and no communications regarding any irregularity with material impact at EDPR though the whistleblowing channel.

ETHICS PROGRAM

Our commitment to ethics is reflected in our Ethics Program. Launched in 2010 and in order to renew ethical behaviours within the company and transmit the new additions to the code, was performed again during 2015.

The Ethics program is an important tool to assess the current status and promote awareness on the issue internally. The Program consists of an interpretative guide of the Code of Ethics, a survey to assess how ethics is understood by EDPR's workers and a training program. An online pilot training program was launched in 2015 to transmit general concepts to a group of employees, and after the great feedback provided by them it will be expanded to the rest of EDPRs personnel during 2016.

ANTI-CORRUPTION REGULATION

In order to ensure compliance with the standards of Anti-Corruption Regulation in all geographies where EDPR operates, the Company has developed an Anti-Corruption Policy of application to all EDPR Group, which was approved by its Board of Directors on December, 2014.

This Anti-Corruption Policy will involve a series of new procedures regarding the relationships of EDPR employees with external parties, namely the approval of certain actions regarding hospitality to and from external parties, charitable donations, and sponsorships. This Policy was implemented in the Group throughout 2015.

EMPLOYEE RELATIONS

EDPR is committed to respect freedom of trade union association and recognises the right to collective bargaining.

At EDPR, from 1,018 employees, 20% were covered by collective bargaining agreements. Collective bargaining agreements apply to all employees working under an employment relationship with some companies of EDPR group, regardless of the type of contract, the professional group into which they are classified, their occupation or job. However, matters relating to the corporate organization itself, the laws of each country or even usage and custom in each country result in certain groups being expressly excluded from the scope of collective bargaining agreements.

The collective bargaining agreements that are applied at EDPR are usually negotiated at state level or regional level, and EDPR may be just one of the players among other leading sectorial companies in the negotiation with employees' representatives, and in some cases, governmental representatives. In Portugal and Brazil, EDP negotiates its own agreements with employees, and those apply to all employee working for companies of the group, including EDPR.

Despite not taking an active part in the negotiations, EDPR wants to facilitate the broadcast of any update in those agreements. EDPR organized training sessions for its employees to inform about the results of those negotiations.

During the last years, EDPR has performed different benchmark analysis of the benefits stated at the different collective bargaining agreements that apply to our employees, comparing them against the benefits offered by the company and, in general terms, the company offers a more competitive benefits package compared to what is stated in the collective bargaining agreement.

During 2015, representatives of the company held different meetings with employees' representatives to deal with some critical topics that affect EDPR, such as the health and safety of its employees, or the bonus payment that is being done in Brazil. In France, EDPR representatives defined a roadmap with the elected employees' representatives with the actions to follow in the short term.

1.1. TRANSITION TOWARDS A LOW CARBON ECONOMY

The world is currently facing vital decisions about the energy of tomorrow. While global primary energy demand is likely to grow by more than 30% over the next 20 years, the need to tighten greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to address climate change is one of the main challenges of this century. This challenge, and in particular, the goal of limiting global warming below 2°C recently agreed at COP 21, requires an urgent shift towards a low-carbon economy.

The scientific consensus is that the Earth's climate system is unequivocally warming, and this is extremely likely attributable to GHG emissions from human activities.

Indeed, climate scientist have observed that carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations in the atmosphere have been increasingly rising over the past century: from the pre-industrial level of around 280 ppm (parts per million), to 397 ppm in 2014. This represents approximately a 40% increase, a trend that is inevitably leading to a rise in temperature levels due to the "greenhouse effect" (by which GHG trap heat in the atmosphere). It has been commonly regarded as an adequate mean to stop this trend and avoid the worst impacts of climate change, to keep global warming below 2°C compared to the pre-industrial average.

"Scientific evidence for warming of the climate system is unequivocal"

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)

THE ENERGY CONTRIBUTION

The energy sector is responsible for approximately two thirds of GHG emissions, being the power sector the largest emitter of CO2. This suggest that we are not able to effectively fight against climate change without a shift in the way we produce energy, and in particular, electricity. Therefore, a key pillar of mitigation strategies is the decarbonisation of the energy sector through renewable energy deployment.

However, current deployment of renewables, especially in the heating sector and in transport, is still not enough to achieve the required energy-related CO2 reductions, to keep global warming below 2°C. Therefore, the fundamental shift towards decarbonisation is still underway.

COP 21 AGREEMENT REACHED IN PARIS

In December 2015, the COP 21 UN Climate Change Conference reached an historical agreement. A legally binding commitment signed by 195 countries aiming at keeping global warming below 2°C.

ROAD TO PARIS AGREEMENT

The Agreement reached at Paris in 2015 is the result of a process that started in Rio de Janeiro Earth Summit back in 1992. The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) was adopted, acknowledging the existence of anthropogenic climate change.

Industrialized countries had the major responsibility for combating it, and the Kyoto Protocol in 1997 provided those countries with binding GHG emissions reduction targets for the period 2008-2012, which entered into force in 2005.

In 2009, countries failed to extend the Kyoto Protocol, but they managed to recognize the common objective of keeping global temperature increase below 2°C.

In 2011, the Durban Platform for Enhanced Action (ADP) was created in order to seek an agreement before 2015, with legal force, applicable to both developed and developing countries, to be applicable in 2020.

In the run-up of the Paris Conference, 186 countries submitted their commitment to fight climate change (INDCs), with GHG reductions targets for 2025-2030.

The submitted INDCs showed that pledges would still result in a global warming between 2.4°C and 2.7°C, therefore, above the 2°C threshold.

KEY ELEMENTS OF PARIS AGREEMENT

After a four-year negotiation round, bythe end of 2015, the so-called Paris Agreement was finally achieved with 195 countries agreing to curb greenhouse gas emissions in order to avoid the worst impacts of global warming. The agreement can be considered as historical as it reached the following key factors:

195 countries participated in an agreement that reflects a "hybrid" approach, blending a top-down rules-based system and a bottom-up system of voluntary pledges to provide flexibility.
Keeping average warming below 2°C was reaffirmed as the common goal, with some parties that should make efforts to limit it to 1,5 °C.
Aims to peak GHG emissions as soon as possible, and to achieve "balance" between emissions and sinks in the second half of the century.
Sets mechanisms to rise targets periodically, since submitted INDCs don't seem to be enough. Every country is bound to submit a new Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) every 5 years, being each NDC progressively more ambitions than the previous one. However, NDCs are not binding.
Places a legal obligation on developed countries to provide climate finance to developing countries, including a provision, stating prior to 2025, where countries should agree a "new collective quantified goal" from the floor of US\$ 100 bn per year
The Agreement is a treaty under international law, although not every provisions are legally binding.

NEXT STEPS

The Paris Agreement will be open for signature on April 22, 2016, and will enter into force on the 30th day, after at least 55 parties accounting for 55% of global greenhouse gas emissions have ratified it. Therefore, the earliest possible date of which the Agreement could enter into force is end-May 2016 but its unlikely to be so straightforward, with governments needing time to push ratification through their respective governments.

1.2. RENEWABLE ENERGY ADVANTAGES

In the current decarbonization scenario, with the commitment to keep global warming below +2°C, renewables are expected to play a key role within an energy sector that is the largest contributor to GHG emissions. Renewable energy has proven to be a competitive source of energy, with a strong contribution to GDP growth while on top of mitigating the potential impacts in the economy that climate change would bring.

A . A N I M M E D I A T E P A T H T O D E C A R B O N I S E T H E G L O B A L E N E R G Y M I X

Ramping renewables is essential to meet climate goals without decelerating economic growth and reducing welfare. In the submitted INDCs prior to COP 21, the growth of the renewable energy capacity (including hydro) is expected to go from 29% in 2013 to a 44% in 2040, about 34% of the generation.

However, the fully implementation of the submitted INDCs and policies of similar strength after 2030, probably will still lead to a warming of around 2.4-2.7°C by 2100.

To achieve the 2°C target scenario, it would require emissions to be close to zero in 2100, while the 1.5° would even require negative emissions from 2080 onwards, which could be achieved with CO2 removal technologies.

According to "IRENA" (International Renewable Energy Agency), doubling the share of renewable energy by 2030 could deliver around half of the required emissions reductions and, coupled with energy efficiency, keep the average rise in temperatures below 2°C, preventing, ultimately, the worst impacts of climate change. Most precisely, doubling the share of renewable energy by 2030 would allow to reduce 8.6 Gt of energy-related CO2 every year until 2030.

B . B R I N G I N G E C O N O M I C G R O W T H & I M P R O V I N G E N E R G Y S E C U R I T Y

Today, renewable energy technologies are viewed not only as tools for mitigating climate change, but are also increasingly recognised as investments that can provide direct and indirect economic advantages by reducing dependence on imported fuels (and hence, improving trade balances), enhancing local air quality and safety, advancing energy access and security, propelling economic development and creating jobs.

GDP growth is one of the outputs of the large deployment of renewables worldwide, thanks to the development of a new industry, which has been representing an increasingly share of the global economy.

Job creation has been asserted by several studies as one of the benefits of renewables, as they recognize this industry is more labour-intensive compared to fossil fuel technologies which are more mechanized and capital intensive. This means that, on average, more jobs are created for each unit of electricity generated from renewable than from fossil fuels. According to IRENA, the sector employed 7.7 million people in 2014, directly and indirectly, around the world (excluding large hydropower), an 18% increase from 2013. Wind energy, is responsible for more than 1 million, 31% of them in Europe.

Reducing country energy dependency is possible because wind, solar and hydro technologies use endogenous resources. Countries enhance their security of energy supply and minimize their exposure to potential increases in fuel prices. Fuel resources are scarce and concentrated in some geographies which explains its high and volatile price.

Reduce wholesale prices, thus, energy-consumers' bills, because renewable generation is bid its output in wholesale markets at zero cost as wind or solar energy has no marginal cost. Power prices are determined by the intersection of power supply and demand, bids at zero displace more expensive technologies shifting, consequently, the supply curve. For a same level of demand, when wind production is available, the market price goes down (the so-called "merit order effect").

WIND EFFECT IN SPAIN POOL PRICE

It´s a fact that wind power reduces the price of electricity: the more the wind blows, the lower the pool or wholesale electricity market price is, which benefits consumers and companies in their electricity bills. This fact is easily observed in the Spanish market, for instance, in the first two weeks of 2015. At that time, the average daily market price, which is the basis for calculating the energy term of the electricity bill, reached 55.66 €/MWh, representing an increase of more than 67% over the same period of the previous year. What was the reason behind this? Low wind generation. According to data released by the Spanish Transmission System Operator (REE) on January 15th, wind production was 1,494 GWh that is 50% lower than in the early days of 2014.

C. RENEWABLES ARE FEASIBLE AND ECONOMICALLY VIABLE

Plummeting costs for renewable energy technologies are making a global energy transition not only possible, but actually, less expensive than the alternative. This is the reason why an increasingly number of private companies are opting for renewables to provide their energy needs, including some of the biggest worldwide as Apple, Ikea, Amazon, Wal-Mart and Lego.

Onshore wind is the least expensive in many regions of the world, mainly due to the drop in wind turbines prices (almost a third in the last 6 years). Its increasingly competitiveness is therefore expected to drive future deployment. Bloomberg expects wind capacity worldwide to reach more than 2,000 GW in 2040 (compared to ~370 GW at the end of 2014).
Solar PV has also experienced dramatic costs reductions that have boost its competitiveness. Solar PV modules prices have dropped 75% since 2009, and this trend is expected to continue. According to Bloomberg, solar PV is expected to dominate new build around the world with almost 5,000 GW of installed capacity by 2040 (from 177 GW in 2014YE).

D. THE COSTS OF ADDRESSING CLIMATE CHANGE MAY BE LOWER THAN THE COSTS ASSOCIATED TO INACTION

Many studies have also analysed the costs of addressing climate change compared to the costs of "inaction" (business as usual). Most of the studies agree on the fact that, if we don't act now, the overall costs and risks of climate change would outweigh the costs of current mitigation options. Most of the studies conclude that, potential impacts of climate change on water resources, food production, health and the environment among others, will provoke important losses for the economies. Instead, the costs of mitigation options (mainly renewables' deployment) will have a negligible impact on aggregate terms.

Focusing on the energy sector, Citi has conducted a study ("Energy Darwinism II"), in which it concludes that the expenditure on energy over the next quarter century, on an undiscounted basis, is remarkably similar in a lowcarbon scenario compared to business-as-usual one. More precisely, the cost of following a low-carbon route in the next 25 years would be of US\$190.2 trillion which is even cheaper than the cost in an "inaction" scenario (US\$192.0 trillion). This is due to the rapid drop of renewables' costs, which, combined with lower fuel usage from energy efficiency investments, result in significantly lower long-term fuel bill.

Therefore, from an economic perspective, the transition towards a low-carbon economy would have positive effects, not only in aggregate terms, but even in the energy sector.

YES TO WIND POWER

THE SUCCESSFUL "YES TO WIND POWER" CAMPAIGN WAS LAUNCHED IN SPAIN IN EARLY 2015, AND WILL BE ROLLED OUT TO SEVERAL OTHER MARKETS IN 2016 SUCH AS POLAND, ROMANIA AND ITALY.

CAMPAIGN OBJECTIVES:

"Yes to Wind Power" works to spread the word that renewable energy is now one of the least expensive generation technologies in the world, even beating out traditional sources like gas and coal. In addition to the economic benefits, the campaign also emphasizes that promoting a shift from conventional fossil fuels to renewable energy is one of the most effective and feasible near-term ways of mitigating climate change. Wind power's scalability, speed of deployment and falling costs make it the best choice to achieve emissions reductions.

The end goal of the campaign is to create more advocates for renewables, and increase societal support for the continued development of wind power and other renewable methods of energy generation.

CAMPAIGN MEDIA:

Through "energetic hipster", a character created to reach the younger public, the campaign has already reached more than 5 million people, offering scientific data in an easy to read and access format. EDPR created a viral video and a web site full of well-researched and credible information including scientific articles and reports about the benefits of wind power and other types of renewable energy. This is made available to the press, opinion leaders and the general public.

"Yes to Wind Power" also has a social media component that aims to build an online community around it. The campaign has been featured in thousands of news reports and blogs, including an article in The Wall Street Journal.

1.3. SUPPORTIVE POLICY INSTRUMENTS

Wind economics, energy policies and environmental concerns continue to drive renewables capacity growth globally.

2015 HIGHLIGHTS

2015 was a record year for the wind industry as annual installations crossed the 60 GW mark for the first time, bringing total capacity to 432 GW.

By region, 2015 was undoubtedly a great year for China that surpassed for the first time the astonishing figure of 30.5 GW, a record figure never seen before and clearly above expert's estimates.

In Europe, 12.8 GW of wind were installed during 2015, a 6.5% increase compared to 2014 installations. Germany, that added 6 GW, was again the largest market, both in terms of cumulative capacity and new installations. Poland came second with 1.3 GW added, more than twice the annual installations in 2014. France was third with 1.1 GW, followed by UK which managed to connect 1 GW.

Although 2015 was a relatively quiet year for European onshore wind, it was an outstanding year for offshore. EWEA (European Wind Energy Association) reported that 3,019 MW offshore wind capacity were installed in European waters, a 108% increase over 2014. These results make cumulative installed capacity amounting to 11,027 MW, consolidating European leadership in terms of offshore wind. This impressive achievement was primarily driven by the German market, where 75.4% of all new capacity was brought online (2,282.4 MW), a four-fold increase compared to 2014. The second largest market was the UK (566.1 MW, or 18.7% share), followed by the Netherlands (180 MW, or 5.9% share). However, despite German additions, UK continues to be the largest offshore market, with 5 GW of installed capacity representing nearly half of total European capacity.

Overall, in Europe, wind power was the energy technology with the highest installation rate, reaching 44% of all new installations. Solar PV came second with 8.5 GW (29% of 2015 installations) and coal third with 4.7 GW (16%). Globally, renewables accounted for 77% of new installations.

2015 was also a very good year for North American wind, primarily driven by US installations: 8,598 MW (a 77% increase over 2014). The US ended 2015 with 74,472 MW, consolidating its second position (after China) in terms of total installed capacity. Mexico installed 714 MW, amid the implementation of its comprehensive electricity market reform, while Canada 1,508 MW, slightly less than in 2014.

In Latin America, Brazil lead the way, installing a record 2,754 MW, with cumulative capacity reaching 8.7 GW. It also worth noting that Uruguay added 316 MW, 60% increase versus its 2014 capacity.

Other emerging economies also achieved important additions as for example India (2,623 MW, surpassing Spain and becoming the fourth largest market), South Africa (483 MW), Panama (235 MW) or Ethiopia (153 MW), among others.

In 2015, the main drivers for wind energy growth were its increasing competitiveness, the need to fight climate change and reduce pollution (particularly choking smog that is dangerously threatening people's health in many countries). Energy security, increasing power demand in emerging countries, insulation from volatile fuel markets, job creation and local industrial development were also decidedly key, but price and environmental concerns stood out as main drivers in 2015.

EUROPE:

In October 24th European Council reached an agreement on 2030 Climate and Energy Policy Framework. A binding renewable energy target of at least 27% was set at European level, a binding EU target to reduce domestic greenhouse gas emissions by 40% compared to 1990 levels and a non-binding energy efficiency target of 27% (to be re-visited by 2020). The framework does not mention individual targets for state implementation so it is still not clear how efforts will be conducted at the national level. European Institutions have now to work in the governance system to set the framework to reach this 2030 targets.

	Renewable energy	CO2 emissions reduction	Energy efficiency
2020 targets	20%	20%	20%
2030 targets	At least 27%	At least 40%	At least 27%

In October 2015, the European Environment Agency published its "Trends and projections" report, according to which the EU would be on tract to meets its climate and energy targets set for 2020. The report states that GHG emissions were already in 2013 19.8% below 1990 levels (and therefore, very close to the 20% target). Regarding renewables share, the 2020 target could be meet, provided that Member States sustain the speed of renewables' development.

Progress on member states towards 2020 targets

SPAIN:

On January 14th 2016 the first auction of RES capacity under the RD 413/2014 framework was held.

The auction was designed to provide a similar remuneration scheme that the one that applies to current installations (RD 413/2014).

Developers were bidding to build 500 MW of wind energy and 200 MW of biomass plants.

<-- PDF CHUNK SEPARATOR -->

The Government has announced that more auctions will be organised, possibly in 2016, to contract the capacity that Spain needs to comply with its 2020 targets.

In connection with 2020 targets, the ministry of Industry, Energy and Tourism published in December its "National Energy Infrastructure Plan 2015-2020" which includes government's view on capacity additions by technology throughout the period. According to this document, and in order to comply with the 2020 targets, around 4.5-6.5 GW of wind capacity would be needed.

FRANCE:

In France, the "Energy Transition bill", whose aim is to build a long-term and comprehensive energy strategy, was finally passed in July 2015. In 66 articles, the text targets to cut France's GHG emissions by 40% between 1990 and 2030 (and divide them by four by 2050), to halve the country's energy usage by 2050, to reduce the share of fossil fuels in energy production, to cap the total output from nuclear power at 63.2 GW and bring the share of renewables up to 32% of the energy mix.

Following the provisions of the "Energy Transition Law", the French government disclosed a draft decree with the details of a new remuneration scheme for renewables. According to this text, renewables will be remunerated by contract-for-difference scheme. However, the implementation for wind energy will probably be delayed to 2018 and up until then, new wind farms will be remunerated according to the current feed-in tariff scheme.

POLAND:

In Poland, a new Renewables' Act was approved in February 2015, introducing a different support system for new renewables plants. According to the law, the current Green Certificate (GC) system will be replaced by a tender scheme. However, the current GC scheme will be maintained (with some adjustments) for operating plants. These plants will have the choice to remain under the GC scheme or shift to the new scheme through specific tenders for operating assets.

ITALY:

In Italy a new draft decree envisaging new wind tenders for at least the two next years. According to the draft, 800 MW of onshore wind could be tendered, with a reference tariff of 110€/MWh. The publication of the final decree is expected for the first quarter of 2016.

UNITED KINGDOM:

On February 26, DECC (Department of Energy and Climate Change) and National Grid, published the results of the first "Contract for Difference" (CfD) auction. Over 2.1 GW of capacity across 27 projects was awarded a CfD contract. Successful projects include 15 onshore wind projects, 2 offshore wind and 5 solar PV, among others.

UK energy secretary Amber Rudd announced a "new direction for UK energy policy" in a speech on 18 November. According to it, the strategy is likely to be focused on gas, nuclear, and provided it cuts its costs, offshore wind. With regards to offshore, she announced that the government would fund three auctions before the end of the decade, with the first probably to be held by end 2016. However, this funding will depend on offshore wind capacity to lower its costs.

ROMANIA:

The European Commission (DG Competition) disclosed in May 2015, its clearance to the Romanian Renewables support scheme amendments notified in 2013 and 2014. Therefore, the amendments have been declared compatible with European regulation, specifically, the European Energy and Environmental State aid Guidelines (EEAG).

On December 2015 the Government finally set the value of the GC quota for 2016 at 12.15%, the same value that was proposed by ANRE by the end of July (well below the original 17% set in the original RES Law)

BRAZIL:

There are two types of renewable reverse auctions in Brazil: energy auctions and capacity auctions. Energy auctions result in long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) being signed between generators and distributors in order to satisfy distribution companies' demand. Capacity auctions result in long-term PPAs signed between generators and Brazil's wholesale market operator, being the main purpose to guarantee the country's reserve margin and grid safety.

In 2015, renewables' projects participated in four auctions. EDPR was awarded 140 MW of wind in an auction held on November 13th.

EUROPEAN TRADING SYSTEM REFORM

The EU emissions trading system (EU ETS) is a cornerstone of the European Union's policy to address climate change and it represents a key tool for reducing GHG emissions costeffectively.

However, the scheme has been witnessing severe challenges. To address them, the European Commission has approved a range of measures.

BACKGROUND:

The EU's emissions trading scheme (EU ETS) was launched in 2005 to promote the reduction of GHG emissions in a cost-effective and economically efficient way. It works on a "cap and trade" principle. A cap, set by the EU, is set on the total amount of certain GHG that can be emitted by the industries, power plants and other installations in the system. The cap is reduced over time so that total allowed emissions gradually decreases. Within the cap, companies receive or buy emission allowances which they can trade as needed.

However, in recent years, weak demand for allowances, largely due to the economic crisis, has led to a surplus of allowances, which has depressed the carbon price.

THE REFORM:

To address the problem, the EU Commission has introduced two mechanisms: backloading in 2014 and the Market Stability Reserve in 2015.

The Backloading was implemented through an amendment to the EU ETS Auctioning Regulation which entered in force on February 2014. It has been designed as a short-term mechanism that consists on postponing the auctioning of allowances. In particular, the auction volume has been reduced by 900 million allowances (400 million in 2014, 300 million in 2015 and 200 million in 2016). By such, the backloading is aimed at rebalancing supply and demand in the short term, and reducing price variations.

The Market Stability Reserve (MSR) is a long-term, structural measure approved by the European Parliament of 7 July 2015 and by the Council on 6 October 2015. The MSR aims at reducing the historical surplus of allowances and improving the resilience of the EU ETS by adjusting the supply of allowances to be auctioned. The scheme will start operating in 2019 and is expected to put Europe on the right track to achieve its ambition to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 40% in 2030 compared to 1990 levels.

In accordance with the MSR, when in a given year the total emission allowances exceeds a certain threshold, a percentage of allowances will be automatically withdrawn from the market and placed into the reserve. In the opposite case, allowances will be returned from the reserve to the market.

Under the scheme, backloaded allowances (900 million postponed allowances withdrawn from the market at least until 2019), will be placed in the reserve when in starts in 2019. Unallocated allowances from the period 2013- 2020 will be also added in the reserve as soon as in 2020.

For the period 2021-2030, market imbalances would also be addressed by a faster reduction of the annual emissions cap. The European Commission is proposing reducing the overall number of allowances by 2.2% each year compared to the current figure of 1.74%.

U.S. TO CONTINUE LEADING THE WAY

Growth in the US expected to add +18 GW of renewable capacity per year until 2020 to meet environmental (RPS) targets and wind energy competitiveness, according to NREL. Incentives as PTCs and the prevalence of PPAs also play a key role.

Historically, the typical framework of wind development in the US has been decentralised, with no national feed-in tariff. It involves the combination of two key drivers of the top line:

PTCs: production tax credits are the dominant form of wind remuneration in the US, and represent an extra source of revenue per unit of electricity (\$23/MWh in 2015), over the first 10 years of the asset's life. There are other mechanisms as well, such as ITCs, investment tax credits equal to 30% of the initial capex usable in lieu of PTCs.

PPAs: long-term bilateral power purchase agreements by which a wind developer can sell its output at a fixed price, usually

adjusted for inflation or a negotiated escalator. Demand for PPAs has been very strong, driven mainly by the need to meet renewable portfolio standards (RPS) targets but also from increasing improving relative competitiveness of wind energy.

The PPA + PTC combination allow wind energy companies to 'lock-in' a return over the life of the assets. The final goals targeted by the application of this framework involve cost competiveness and affordability, security of supply and environmental concerns.

LONG TERM VISIBILITY OF INCENTIVES

Historically, eligibility for production tax credits incentives has been made possible for a couple of years at a time, over a limited period, without any visibility on any further extensions. After many extensions in a 'stop and go' approach, companies required visibility on the investment horizon for wind energy companies.

The President of the US signed in December 2015 the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2016, which includes the extension of energy-related tax incentives for renewable energy in the country. As a result of this Act, wind energy projects that begin construction before January 1st 2020 will qualify for 10 years of Production Tax Credits ("PTC") on the electricity output. Previous to this extension, PTCs were available for wind energy projects that had begun construction before January 1st 2015.

The 5-year extension also includes a phase down according to which the PTC value shall be reduced by 20% in the case facility construction begins after December 31st, 2016, and before January 1st, 2018; by 40% if construction begins after December 31st, 2017, and before January 1st, 2019; and by 60% if construction begins after December 31st, 2018, and before January22020. Projects also have the option to choose, in lieu of the PTC, an Investment Tax Credit ("ITC") on the project cost during the same period and with the same phase down percentages.

This framework provides long-term visibility and an improved environment for the development of new wind and solar projects, thus creating conditions to allow EDPR to further execute competitive projects in the US and strengthen its presence in a country that is already its main growth market.

PTCs are currently crucial, but their relative importance is likely set to decrease over time. The economics of wind power in the U.S. are rapidly improving, necessitating lower and lower PPA prices, to the point where wind is competitive on its own in some areas against other traditional technologies, on a 'new-build' basis. The various RPS and other environmental goals will still represent a substantial incentive, PTCs notwithstanding.

WIND ENERGY COMPETITIVENESS

The improving wind energy economics include decreasing capex and opex per MW, and even more per MWh due to the increase in load factors via technology improvements in wind turbines and also overall excellent wind resources in the US, especially in the regions with best resource available. In the west and east states, load factors are typically within 25-30%, while in the central states those are typically of 30-45%. This naturally makes wind energy further more competitive from a fundamental standpoint, even without incentives.

RPS DEMAND

The renewable portfolio standards (RPS) are designed to require power suppliers to provide a minimum share of electricity from renewable sources, on a state-by-state basis. Such standards have increased and by 2015 a total of 31 states have binding RPS objectives, as shown in the table below, which excludes the 7 states with voluntary goals. Although those are implemented by states all-round the US, however a strong cluster is observed in the west/pacific cost and the north east. This typically represents 10% to 25% to be reached by 2020-25 for most states, and often foreseeing a gradual increase in the mandated percentage.

Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS) set penalties to utilities that do not procure a certain percentage of generation from renewable resources. Utilities can either invest directly in renewable generation assets, purchasing electricity from other renewable generators or purchase RECs. As a result, many utilities setup auction systems (RFPs) to seek long-term power purchase agreements with renewable energy generators. Due to the competitiveness of wind energy, this technology has received the largest share of awarded PPAs.

RPS objective	2015	2020+	RPS objective	2015	2020+
Arizona	4.5%	15%	Montana	15%	15%
California	23%	33%	Nevada	20%	22%
Colorado	17.3%	28.8%	New Hampshire	13.8%	23.8%

Moreover, the U.S. administration has also recently announced (August 2015) the Clean Power Plan by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), a plan to help cut carbon pollution from the power sector by 32% by 2030 (against 2005 levels). Power plants are responsible for about one-third of all US greenhouse gas emissions. This plan implies greater reliance on gas (CCGTs account for c. 40% of the planned reduction emissions), but also on alternative energy sources (c. 25% of the planned reduction emissions), and especially wind.

GROWTH PROSPECTS

Demand growth in the U.S. market could still be motivated by other existing forces, primarily the planned coal capacity retirements, wind energy competitiveness as well as RPS compliance in several states. Approximately 42 GW of coal capacity has been announced to retire through 2020 of which we expect wind to absorb a significant share in the replacement of such retirements. Furthermore, renewable energy generation becomes more competitive as a direct result from coal retirement. A higher penetration of energy generated from natural gas can lead to more flexible grids, benefitting intermittent resources such as renewables.

will need to be added until 2020 in order to fulfil

Regarding RPS targets in place to encourage renewable energy demand, we estimate 22 GW of wind

compliance with targets already established. From wind energy competitiveness alone, we believe an additional 7 GW can be added.

2. BUSINESS PLAN 2014-17

EDPR's value creation strategic plan through 2017 remains in line with previous architecture, supported by three pillars with defined goals: Selective Growth, Increased Profitability and Self-funding Model.

On May 2014, EDPR presented to the financial community its Business Plan for 2014-17 at the EDP Group Investor Day held in London, in which were present c.200 financial markets participants.

Since its inception, EDPR has been performing a strategy focused on selective growth, by investing in quality projects with predictable future cash-flows, and seamless execution, supported by core competences that yield superior profitability, all embedded within a distinctive and renowned self-funding model designed to accelerate value creation. As a result of undertaking such strategy, at the same time flexible enough to accommodate to changing business and economic environments, EDPR remains today a global leading company in the renewable energy industry.

As of today, EDPR is successfully executing its strategic agenda creating solid foundations to outperform its 2014-17 goals.

EDPR on-target execution will allow the company to deliver solid growth targets…

…and continue to lead in a green and sustainable sector with increased worldwide relevance.

2.1. SELECTIVE GROWTH

The selective growth strategic pillar is the guiding principle behind EDPR's investment selection process, it ensures that the projects that are finally built have the best fit with the Company's low risk profile at superior profitability. This strategy can be seen in the 2014-17 Business Plan growth options, as projects have been selected according to two key guidelines:

1) Low risk profile - New capacity benefits from long-term PPAs already awarded or under stable regulatory frameworks. This guarantees high visibility of the project's future cash-flows, reducing risk and locking-in project profitability.

2) High operational performance – The projects selected exhibit strong operating metrics, namely above portfolio average load factors. This improves project competitiveness and drives higher profitability.

EDPR is well on track to deliver on its business plan target growth of +2 GW (>500 MW/year). EDPR's Extensive pipeline has been an important contributing factor to the successful execution of this strategy. The availability of multiple projects coupled with strong development expertise guarantees that only the best, fully optimized, projects are finally selected for investment.

60% GROWTH FROM US, DRIVEN BY PPAS ALREADY SIGNED

The United States is EDPR main growth driver for the 2014-17 Business Plan timeframe. The PTC tax benefit scheme, strong demand for long-term PPAs from wind energy projects, combined with EDPR's deep portfolio of projects in this market support this solid growth opportunity. Additionally, self-funding is available through tax equity partnerships with the possibility of asset rotation transactions as well, given the strong interest from infrastructure and pension funds for equity stakes.

The December 2015 extension of the Production Tax Credit, that includes a gradual phase down of the PTC value for projects that start construction before 2020, provides further long-term visibility and an improved environment for the development of new wind energy projects. This extension provides visibility to US growth beyond the 2014-17 timeframe, further strengthens the strong fundamental of the US wind market, and support EDPR's choice to shift growth to the US.

Project economics on all of the new investments in the US are strong, with average load factors of about 43%, earning average PPA prices in the first year of \$48/MWh, leading to double-digit IRR percentages.

20% GROWTH FROM EUROPE, FOCUSING ON LOW RISK FRAMEWORKS

Certain European markets continue to provide good growth opportunities supported by regulatory frameworks that provide a low risk environment.

France's existing feed-in tariff regime provides a stable growth opportunity in Europe. For the 2014-17 Business Plan EDPR targets additions of 60-70 MW through pipeline development, having already installed 42 MW by December 2015. In Italy, EDPR has installed the 30 MW awarded in 2013, and intends to participate in future energy auctions to generate new possible additions. In Poland, EDPR has already installed 99 MW in 2014 and 2015 under the current Green Certificate regime, whilst further growth remains contingent to the approval of a new energy law, expected to be based in energy auctions, where EDPR maintains competitive projects in pipeline. Finally, in Portugal, the total capacity awarded back in 2006 to the ENEOP consortium has been fully installed, the consequent asset splitting executed, and EDPR now fully consolidates 613 MW.

20% FROM SELECTED EMERGING MARKETS, IN PROJECTS WITH LONG-TERM PPAS

In Brazil, EDPR will install in 2015-17 the projects with PPA awarded in 2011 and 2013 for a total 236 MW, thus representing a significant increase in capacity from current portfolio of 84 MW.

In 2014 EDPR has entered the Mexican energy market signing a long-term electricity supply agreement, for the energy of a 200 MW wind farm to be installed in 2016, representing a sizeable entry into a low risk and attractive market. Mexico is as a country with great potential for wind energy and this entry can provide a solid platform for further growth in this market.

Additionally, EDPR is to remain actively prospecting opportunities in new markets with strong fundamentals, namely high growth of electricity demand, robust renewable resources and availability of long-term energy supply agreements awarded through competitive schemes.

+1.5 GW FOR US GROWTH UNDER PPA

Power Purchase Agreements are a fundamental tool to accomplish EDPR low risk approach in the US market. They ensure that a project's energy is sold at a pre-determined price for long time period, generally between 15- 20 years. This shields EDPR from any volatility in energy market price, locking-in project profitability.

Since 2013 EDPR has signed 1.8 GW in long-term sale agreements providing full visibility to its growth target in US for 2014-17 and to the profitability of our existing fleet with 0.3 GW of new PPAs for operational projects.

During 2015 EDPR successfully signed two additional PPA for 200 MW of new capacity, relating to wind farms in Texas and Ohio, to be installed in 2016. These two agreements that were signed with commercial and industrial corporations, one of which Amazon Web Services Inc., are a clear sign of the growing demand for green affordable energy from corporate players. Previously the demand for PPAs came only from traditional utilities, however recently the direct procurement from corporations has increased substantially, adding new demand for EDPR US wind and solar projects.

These long term sale agreements demonstrate not just EDPR's skill in closing commercial deals but foremost the company's strong ability to position effectively a pipeline of quality projects, in suitable locations and stages of development as a key success factor to capture growth opportunities on-time.

2.2. INCREASED PROFITABILITY

One of the strategic pillars and that has always been a keystone of the company, setting it apart in the industry, is the drive to maximize the operational performance of its wind farms and solar plants. In this area, EDPR's teams, namely in operations and maintenance, have established a strong track record that support challenging targets set in the 2014-17 Business Plan. For this period, EDPR has set targets for three key metrics: Availability, Load Factor and Opex/MW. These three metrics provide an overall view of the progress in our operations and maintenance, wind assessment and cost control efforts. They also serve as good indicators for the overall operational efficiency of the company.

MAINTAINING HIGH LEVELS OF AVAILABILITY >97.5%

Availability measures the percentage of time the fleet is fully operational. If an equipment has a 97.5% availability metric this means that, in a given period, it was available to generate energy 97.5% of the time, which leaves only 2.5% for preventative maintenance or repairs. Availability is a clear indicator of performance of the company's operations and maintenance practices as it focuses on reducing to a minimum any malfunctions and performing maintenance activities in the shortest possible timeframe.

The company always maintained high levels of availability and has registered availability of above 97.6% in 2015, in line with its 2014-17 Business Plan target. EDPR will continue to look for further increases in availability through new predictive maintenance optimization measures supported by the 24/7 control and dispatch centre, in reducing damages most common during extreme weather and improving the scheduling of planned stops. Also a new spare parts warehousing strategy will be key in reducing downtime during unexpected repairs.

LEVERAGING QUALITY GROWTH ON DISTINCTIVE WIND ASSESSMENT TOWARD 31.5% LOAD FACTOR

Load factor (or net capacity factor) measures the speed and quality of the renewable resource at the wind turbines or solar panels. A load factor of 31.5% means the percentage of maximum theoretical energy output with an equipment working at full capacity, in a given period. For example, for 1MW over a year, it equals to the production of 2.759,4 MWh (31.5% x 1 MW x 24 hours x 365 days).

Ensuring the assets generate the maximum amount of energy possible is a key success factor. With regards to the operating portfolio, optimizing load factor is linked to improving availability as described and, if possible, introducing productivity enhancement retrofits that boost production by setting older equipment models with the most up-to-date technological improvements available to increase efficiency in the utilization of renewable resources available. With regards to wind farms and solar plants under development, maximizing load factor is mostly the expert work of energy assessment and engineering teams, designing an optimal layout of the plant, by fitting the positioning and choice among different equipment models with the characteristics of the site, specially the terrain, from the collected resource measurements and their estimated energy outputs.

The company has consistently maintained levels of load factor in the range of 29-30%, having registered 29.2% in 2015, which is slightly below the 29.4% P50 (mean probability) assessment for the current fleet, and has set a target of 31.5% until the end of the 2014-17 period.

INCREASING TURBINE PRODUCTION

EDPR is also creating value by improving its assets implementing new technologies on the turbines to boost the power output without requiring major component changes. EDPR's Performance Analysis teams are collaborating with the manufacturers to determine the best practices to apply this new technology.

By monitoring real-time conditions, the rotational speed of the generator can be increased while staying within the existing loads envelope, thus increasing the power output. The extra output increases the revenues of the wind farm, without major investments needed. This technology has successfully being applied on many turbines and it will keep being developed in the following years.

INCREASING EFFICIENCY, REDUCING OPEX/MW -2%

In addition to all company initiatives to boost production, EDPR also focuses on strict cost control efforts to improve efficiency and gain additional profitability. Leveraging on the experience accumulated over time, we set a target in the 2014-17 Bussiness Plan to reduce Opex/MW by -2% CAGR 2013- 2017. Despite the natural aging of its installed asset base, the company is on track to achieve this objective, with a registered reduction on OPEX of -2% CAGR 2013-15. A strict control over costs has been applied to reduce the manageable company costs structure, also benefiting from the economies of scale of a growing company. With regards to O&M, representing c. 30% of total Opex, EDPR has already delivered results form the implementation of its M3 system and selfperform program to some of the wind farms that are no longer subject to initial warranty contracts.

M3 PROGRAM AND SELF-PERFORMANCE

As EDPR's fleet becomes more mature the initial Operations and Maintenance (O&M) contracts signed with the turbine suppliers expire. When that happens the company needs to decide between renewing the maintenance service with the OEM or insourcing activities to operate the wind farm on its own, whilst maintaining high levels of availability.

The M3 (Modular Maintenance Model) program is our solution. Based on EDPR's expertise, our O&M teams will decide on the optimal balance between external contractors and in-house maintenance. Usually, EDPR keeps control of high value-added activities such as maintenance planning, logistics and remote operations while outsourcing, under direct supervision, laborintensive tasks.

This strategy resulted in estimated savings of around 20% in the wind farms where the M3 system was implemented, which account for 40% of Europe's fleet.

In the US, during 2014 we expanded the M3 model to a pilot self-perform program in the Blue Canyon V wind farm. After a market review and a bottom-up analysis, we identified potential savings by fully insourcing O&M activities, given the in-house capabilities developed over the last years.

This new program immediately showed savings in operational expenses and increased control over quality. During 2015 self-perform maintenance was implemented in additional facilities whose maintenance contracts were up for renewal.

2.3. SELF-FUNDING MODEL

EDPR self-funding model has been a cornerstone of EDPR strategy and its success has been crucial for funding growth. The self-funding model relies on a combination of cash-flow from operating assets, external funds from tax equity and other structured project finances as well as proceeds from asset rotation transactions to finance the profitable growth of the business. This model substitutes the previous financing strategy that depended on corporate debt from EDPR's majority shareholder EDP.

OPERATING CASH-FLOW

The primary source of funds for the company is the operating cash flow generated from the existing assets, which is firstly used to pay for the debt service and capital distributions to equity partners, while the excess is available to pay dividends to the shareholders of EDPR or to fund new investments.

A strong operating cash-flow generation of about € 3.5 billion is expected for the period 2014-17.

EDPR has indicated a dividend pay-out ratio policy in the range of 25-35% of its annual net profit, thus allowing that most of the cash-flow available to fund growth. The dividends paid in 2015 amounted to about € 35 million corresponding to the low end of the range relative to the net profit of the previous year, representing only a small share of the available cash-flow generated in the period.

US TAX EQUITY AND OTHER PROJECT FINANCE STRUCTURES

EDPR always aims to find external financing to its projects, namely through tax equity structures, typical of the US, and through other project finance structures, available in other geographies. The use of such structures fit in the self-funding model because they substitute the need of corporate debt.

Moreover, the case of tax equity in the US also enables an efficient utilization of the tax benefits provided by the project thus improving its economics. In a simple view, under the tax equity partnerships, tax equity investors contribute a sizable part of the initial project investment, receiving in return almost all of the PTCs granted to the project for first ten years of operation.

In the case of project finance, it is also a means to contract long-term debt in local currency at competitive costs in order to mitigate the refinancing risk and to reduce the foreign exchange risk by having a natural hedge between revenues and expenses.

In 2015 EDPR signed three tax equity transactions relating to the total 398 MW capacity added in the US this year, and corresponding to tax equity financing proceeds of US\$ 473 million. These transactions bring total tax equity financing proceeds ever raised by EDPR up from US\$ 3.1 billion.

With regards to project finance, in 2015 EDPR closed an important project finance deal for its Baixa do Feijão wind farm in Brazil, with proceeds amounting to R\$ 306 million. This project is a good example of the benefits of using project finance as it provides competitive financing from the Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES) as well as a natural hedging for currency volatility in the Brazilian real.

ASSET ROTATION

Proceeds from asset rotation transactions are also important sources of funds for the self-funding model of EDPR in financing the profitable growth of the business. Such model enables the company to advance the value yet to be realized from the future cash-flows of its existing projects over their long remaining lifetime, and reinvest the corresponding proceeds in the development of new value accretive projects, with superior returns to the costs of the asset rotation proceeds themselves. These transactions involve the company selling minority stakes at the level of the projects (typically of 49%), and still maintaining full management control over these projects. Moreover, the scope of projects for these transactions tend to be mature projects, generally already operating and thus significantly de-risked, with high visibility of future cash-flows, that can be attractive to low risk institutional investors from whom EDPR can then source a competitive cost of finance.

In 2015, two transactions were signed in the United States. The first transaction includes the sale of 49% of EDPR's Lone Valley, 30 MW, solar PV plant to an infrastructure fund. This transaction was completed at a competitive multiple and is EDPR's first asset rotation transaction involving non-wind assets. The second, the Company's second largest to date, involves the sale of 34% of a portfolio of operating and under construction wind farms amounting to 1,002 MW in the US. The completion of these two transactions brings the total asset rotation proceeds for 2014 and 2015 to € 800 million, having clearly surpassed EDPR's Business Plan target of € 700 million. The early completion of this target is a clear indicator of the quality of the company's installed asset base that has attracted the interest of many institutional investors.

During 2015, significant progress was also made with regards to the CTG strategic partnership. Under this agreement EDPR will sell 49% of Polish and Italian assets totalling 598 MW. The transaction scope covers 392 MW in operation in Poland and 100 MW in Italy with an average age of 4 years, as well as 107 MW under construction in Poland and Italy. This transaction adds to the Brazil and Portugal transactions signed with CTG in 2014 and 2012 respectively, as well as the MoU relating to the future sale of 49% stake in the ENEOP consortium signed in December 2013.

For the record, the referred strategic partnership between EDP (EDPR's main shareholder) and CTG was established at the end of 2011 and entered into force in May 2012, foreseeing a total € 2 billion investment by CTG until 2015 (including co-funding capex) in operating and ready-to-build renewable energy generation projects, that may include wind energy assets from EDPR and, as after agreed, selected hydro power plants from other EDP business units.

3. RISK MANAGEMENT

In line with EDPR's controlled risk profile, Risk Management process defines the mechanisms for evaluation and management of risks and opportunities impacting the business, increasing the likelihood of the company achieving its financial targets, while minimizing fluctuations of results without compromising returns.

RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS

EDPR's Risk Management Process is an integrated and transversal management model that ensures the implementation of best practices of Corporate Governance and transparency. This process is closely followed and supervised by the Audit and Control Committee, an independent supervisory body composed of non-executive members.

The purpose of the Risk Management process is to ensure the alignment of EDPR's risk exposure with the company's desired risk profile. Risk management policies are aimed to mitigate risks, without ignoring potential opportunities, thus, optimizing return versus risk exposure.

Risk management is endorsed by the Executive Committee, supported by the Risk Committee and implemented in day-to-day decisions by all managers of the company. It is supported by three distinct organizational functions:

RISK PROFILER: Responsible for identification and analyses of risks, defining policies and limits for risk management within the company;
RISK MANAGER: Responsible for day to day operational decisions and for implementing approved risk policies;
RISK CONTROLLER: Responsible for follow up of the result of risk taking decisions and for verification of alignment of operations with general policy approved by the Executive Committee.

EDPR created three distinct meetings of the Risk Committee in order to separate discussions on execution of mitigation strategies from those on the definition of new policies:

RESTRICTED RISK COMMITTEE: Held every month, it is mainly focused on development risk and market risk from electricity price. It is the forum to discuss the execution of mitigation strategies to reduce merchant exposure. Its purpose is also to control the limits of defined risk policies, with regards to counterparty risk, operational risk and country risk.
FINANCIAL RISK COMMITTEE: Held every quarter, it is held to review main financial risks and discuss the execution of mitigation strategies. Exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and credit risk from financial counterparties are most relevant risk reviewed in this committee.
RISK COMMITTEE: Held every quarter, it is the forum where new strategic analyses are discussed and new policies are proposed for approval to the Executive Committee. Additionally, EDPR's overall risk position is reviewed, together with EBITDA@Risk and Net Income@Risk.

RISK MAP AT EDPR

Risk Management at EDPR is focused on covering all market, credit and operational risks of the company. In order to have a holistic view of risks, they are classified in Risk Areas, covering the entire business cycle of EDPR, and in Risk Categories, following a generalized classification of risks. Risk Areas are Countries & regulations, Revenues, Financing, Wind turbine contracts, Pipeline development, and Operations.

Risk Categories are Market, Counterparty, Operational, Business and Strategic, and they refer to the following risks:

MARKET RISK: It refers to the risk to an institution resulting from movements in market prices, in particular, changes in electricity prices, interest rates, foreign exchange rates and other commodity prices.
COUNTERPARTY RISK: Risk that counterparty to a transaction could default before final settlement of the transaction's cash flows. A direct economic loss would occur if transactions with the counterparty had positive economic value at the time of default. Even in the case of not defaulting, it may not comply with its contract obligations (timing, quality, etc.), implying additional higher costs due to its replacement or to delays in fulfilling the contract.
OPERATIONAL RISK: Defined as the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems or from external events (other than counterparty);
BUSINESS RISK: Potential loss in the company's earnings due to adverse changes in business volume, margins, or both. Such losses can result above all from a serious deterioration of the weather conditions, or changes in the regulatory environment. Changes in electricity prices are considered a market risk;
STRATEGIC RISK: It refers to risks coming from macroeconomic, political or social situation in countries where EDPR is present, as well as those coming from a change in the competitive landscape, from technology disruptions, from investment decisions criteria or from reputational issues;

Within each Risk Category, risks are classified in Risk Groups. The full description of the risks and how they are managed can be found in the Corporate Governance chapter.The following graph summarizes the Risk Categories and Risk Groups within EDPR.

Strategic Risk Country Risk Competitive Landscape Risk Technology Disruptions Risk Invest. Decisions Criteria Risk Reputational Risk Business Risk Energy Production Risk Equipment Performance Risk Regulatory Risk (renewables) Wind Turbine Price Risk Wind Turbine Supply Risk Operational Risk Development Risk Execution Risk Physical Assets Risk Legal Claims Risk (Compliance) Personnel Risk Processes Risk Information Technologies Risk Counterparty Risk Counterparty Credit Risk Counterparty Operational Risk Market Risk Electricity Price Risk Interest Rate Risk Exchange Rate Risk Inflation Risk Liquidity Risk Commodity Price Risk

EDPR RISK MATRIX BY RISK GROUP

FOCUS ON COUNTRY RISK AT EDPR

WHAT IS COUNTRY RISK?

Country Risk is defined as the probability of occurrence of a financial loss in a given country due to macroeconomics, political/social issues, natural disasters or legislative decisions.

SOURCES OF COUNTRY RISK

Economic: Risks from the country's economic evolution, affecting revenues or costs of the investments. It can be divided in macroeconomics (the conditions of domestic economy) and external sector (international transactions between the country and the rest of the world).
Political and social: Includes all possible damaging actions or factors for the business of foreign firms that emanate from any political authority, governmental body or social group in the host country (i.e. war, civil disturbances, etc.).
Natural disasters:Natural phenomena (i.e. seismicity, weather) that may impact negatively in the business conditions.

METHODOLOGY FOR COUNTRY RISK ASSESSMENT AT EDPR

Country Risk Assessment is based on an external assessment consensus of country risk and an internal assessment performed by EDPR, which is used to identify the specific source of risk in order to apply potential mitigation strategies.

External Assessment: It is the consensus from third parties assessments
- ECAs
- Private consultants
- Credit rating agencies
- Market indexes.

Internal Assessment:

It is an internal estimate of country risk which allows to differentiate the specific source of risk

EDPR CONTINUES TO DELIVER SOLID SELECTIVE GROWTH

9.6 GW EBITDA + Net

With a top quality portfolio present in ten countries, EDPR has a strong track record and proven capability to execute superior projects and deliver on targets. The installed asset base of 9.6 GW is not only young, on average 6 years, it is also mostly certified in terms of environmental and health and safety standards.

Since 2008, EDPR has doubled its installed capacity with the additions of 5.2 GW, resulting in a total installed capacity of 9,637 MW (EBITDA + Net Equity). As of year-end 2015, EDPR had installed 5,142 MW in Europe, 4,412 MW in North America and 84 MW in Brazil.

During 2015 EDPR added 602 MW to its installed capacity, of which 398 MW were in North America and 204 MW in Europe.

2015 INSTALLATIONS CONCENTRATED IN THE UNITED STATES

+602 MW in 2015

The largest growth in installed capacity occurred due to the completion of 398 MW in the U.S. All of the MW had previously secured long-term power purchase contracts, thus providing long term stability and visibility on the revenue stream.

Total EBITDA + Net Equity installed capacity surpassed 4.4 GW in the U.S.

In Europe, half of the growth in capacity came from additions in Rest of Europe. Iberia also contributed with 93 additional MW, mainly due to ENEOP asset split, which as of September 1st was 100% consolidated in EDPR.

In Poland, EDPR continues to see positive growth with the installation of 77 MW, 47 MW from the Tomaszów wind farm located in the central region and 30 MW from Poturzyn.

EDPR added 24 MW to its installed capacity in France with the completion of the Escardes and Montagne Fayel project, both of them with 12 MW of installed capacity. Finally, EDPR was able to deliver on 10 MW in Italy with the Parco la Rocca project.

MORE THAN HALF OF 2016 CAPACITY ADDITIONS ALREADY UNDER CONSTRUCTION

By the end of 2015, EDPR had 344 MW under construction all related to projects to be delivered in 2016 with long term secured remuneration.

In Mexico, EDPR started the works of its first wind farm in the country, 200 MW with a secured PPA in the state of Coahuila.

In Brazil EDPR has 120 MW under construction related to the Baixa do Feijão projects after successfully bidding in the A5 auction for 20 year PPAs schedule to start in 2016.

Finally in Europe, 24 MW were under construction in France, where EDPR has a solid long-term growth strategy.

92% OF EDPR'S INSTALLED CAPACITY IS COVERED BY ISO 14001 CERTIFICATION

The Environmental Management System (EMS) is developed in accordance with the ISO 14001 international standard and certified by an independent certifying organization. These consensus standards are considered the world's benchmark for EMS Management Systems and is a guarantee that EDPR sites, regardless of its regulatory environment are aligned and at the same level of compliance. For more information regarding the MW certified please refer to page 82.

Assets' Average Age and Useful Life

In addition to operating high quality and safe assets, EDPR also has a young portfolio with an average operating age of 6 years, with an estimate of over 19 years of useful life remaining to be captured.

In Europe, EDPR's portfolio had an average age of 6 years, in North America 5 years, and in Brazil 5 years.

Throughout the entire process, from development to operations, EDPR maintains the highest standards in construction quality, integrity, and sustainability.

As an exemple, EDPR made numerous efforts to minimize impacts and promote environmental stewardship at Arbuckle Mountain. Despite the project representing a very low impact risk to bald eagles, EDPR and its consultant developed an Eagle Conservation Plan, and sited turbines away

from potential bald eagle nesting habitat to further reduce risk. Certain construction activities, including ground disturbance and clearing, were conducted early in the year to minimize risk to nesting ground birds. In addition, while highly unlikely to be present in this area, efforts were taken to minimize potential impacts to the endangered American Burying Beetle, whose modeled range includes a small portion of the project area.

EDPR also extends its postive impact to the local committies, funding their festivities, like the 4th of July celebration in the small town of Davis or supporting important institutions, such us the fire department which needed a new insulation and shelving that was funded by EDPR.

In Poland, the towns of Tomaszów and Jarczów where positively impacted by the construction of the Tomaszów wind farm, as local roads, sidewalks and bus stops were replaced. From an environmental point of view monitoring of bats, birds and hamsters was performed.

All in all, the total intrinsic value created by the installation of more than 0.6 GW is greatly positive.

8% INCREASE IN YOY GENERATION

EDPR generated 21.4 TWh during 2015. When adding the over 1 TWh produced from our equity projects, enough clean energy was produced to serve nearly 50% of the electricity demand of Portugal.

The 8% year-on-year increase in the electricity output benefited from the capacity additions over the last 12 months and ENEOP consolidation.

Due to a lower wind resource, EDPR achieved a 29% load factor during 2015, which compares with a 30% load factor achieved in 2014.

EDPR also achieved a stellar 98% availability. The company continues to leverage on its competitive advantages to maximize wind farm output and on its diversified portfolio to minimize the wind volatility risk.

PREMIUM PERFORMANCE AND DIVERSIFIED PORTFOLIO DELIVERS BALANCED OUTPUT

EDPR's operations in North America were the main driver for the electricity production growth in 2015, increasing by +9% YoY to 11.1 TWh and represented 52% of the total output (stable year-on-year). This performance was driven by EDPR's unique ability to capture the wind resource available along with the contribution from new additions. EDPR achieved a 32% load factor in North America, -1pp vs. 2014.

Production growth in Europe was mainly due to reaping the benefits from the installed capacity in 2014, which help offset the decline in year over year load factor. All countries deliver positive growth except for Spain where 2014 was considered an outstanding year in terms of wind resource.

Spain (-2pp) and Portugal (-3pp) capacity factors were lower YoY, although the efficiency achieved was in line normal expectations. Moreover, EDPR delivered once again a solid premium over the Spanish market average load factor (+2pp).

The Rest of Europe operations delivered a 27% load factor (24% in 2014) and posted higher year over year generation. Poland and Romania lead the increase in production with +572 GWh YoY as new capacity and a solid resource contributed to the strong performance. Higher production in Italy (+44 GWh) and France (+90 GWh) was due to a mix of new capacity and stronger wind resource. The remaining countries delivered stable growth of 23 GWh.

In 2015, EDPR's output in Brazil decreased 6% YoY to 222 GWh, as a result of a weaker wind resource during the year, and led to a lower load factor of 30% (-2pp).

CARBON FREE ENERGY

The 21.4 TWh of electricity produced by EDPR has zero carbon emissions, thus contributing to the world's fight against climate change. Based on each countries' thermal emission factors, an estimate of 18.7 million tons of CO2 equivalent emissions were avoided that would have otherwise been emitted by burning fossil fuels to generate the same amount of electricity in the geographies where EDPR is present.

1.2. FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

REVENUES TOTALLED 1.5 BILLION EUROS AND EBITDA SUMMED 1.1 BILLION EUROS.

In 2015, EDPR revenues totalled 1,547 million euros, an increase of 270 million euros when compared to 2014 mainly driven by forex appreciation (+110 million euros), higher volumes (+106 million euros), higher average selling price (+28 million euros) and an update of TEI's post-flip residual interest accretion (30 million euros). EDPR's output in the period increased 8% and the average selling price increased by 9% as the result of higher average selling price in Europe.

EBITDA decreased 239 million euros year on year to 1,142 million euros, as a result of the top-line evolution and partially offset by higher Net operating costs, +31 million euros to 405 million euros. Net operating costs were positively impacted by higher Other operating income, +116 million euros, mainly explained by the gain subsequent to the control acquisition of certain assets of ENEOP, and on the other hand by higher Operating Costs. In the period, Other operating costs increased by +147 million euros, mainly due to write-off impact, following a strict focus of the development efforts in regions with sound business fundamentals, and at lesser extent to forex translation. As a result, EBITDA margin increased from 71% to 74%.

Impacted by the top line evolution, Net Profit increased 32% year over year to 167 million euros, while Adjusted Net Profit decreased 13% to 108 million euros, adjusted for non-recurring events, forex differences and capital gains.

ROBUST CASH-FLOW

Operating Cash-Flow reached 701 million euros and net investments reached 719 million euros, benefiting from the execution of the asset rotation strategy. In 2015, EDPR received proceeds of 395 million euros from the sale of non-controlling interests. On the back of its asset rotation strategy, was completed the settlement of Fiera Axium transaction, signed in 2014, and the financial closing of the sale of a minority interest in an operating solar PV power plant in the US. As a result, for both transactions, EDPR received a net amount of 316 million euros, considering agreed transaction values, less cash owed from the signing to the settlement dates and net of transactions costs. In 2015, also occurred the financial closing of the sale of Brazilian minority interests assets to CTG, in the context of the partnership with EDP.

Capital expenditures (Capex) totalled 903 million euros reflecting the capacity additions in the year and the capacity under construction. Financial investments totalled 157 million, mainly related with settlement of ENEOP asset split, the acquisition of a 45% stake in EDPR Brasil and the acquisition of minority stakes in already controlled SPVs in Spain. As a result of forex translation (impact 130 million euros), investments done in the period, robust cash-flow generation, the execution of the asset rotation strategy and close monitoring of operating costs, Net Debt increase by 425 million euros, reflecting 3.2x Net Debt to EBITDA, versus 3.6x in 2014.

INCOME STATEMENT

SOLID TOP LINE PERFORMANCE

EDPR revenues totalled 1,547 million euros, a 21% increase on the back of the forex translation, higher volumes and higher selling prices along with other effects.

Other operating income increased by 116 million euros, mainly explained by the gain subsequent to the control acquisition of certain assets of ENEOP, while Operational expenses (Opex) – defined as Operating costs excluding Other operating income - increased by 147 million euros, with the increase mainly explained by the write-off impact and forex translation. Reflecting control over costs and EDPR's asset management strategy, Supplies and services and Personnel costs per Avg. MW, adjusted by forex impact, decreased by 1% YoY, and Supplies and services and Personnel costs per Avg. MWh stood stable YoY, given lower wind resource in the period.

In 2015, EBITDA increased by 26% to 1,142 million euros, while EBITDA margin improved to 74% versus 71% in 2014.

Operating income (EBIT) increased by 37% versus 2014 to 578 million euros, reflecting EBITDA performance and the 84 million euros higher depreciation and amortisation costs, including net impairments, along with higher capacity in operation and forex.

At the financing level, Net Financial Expenses increased 14%. Net interest costs decreased 8% due to lower cost of debt, reduced from 5.2% to 4.3% in December 2015. Institutional Partnership costs were 22 million euros higher, reflecting mainly forex translation and new tax equity deals, while capitalized expenses decreased by 14% versus 2014. Forex differences and derivatives had a negative impact of 3 million euros.

Pre-Tax Profit increased to 291 million euros and income taxes increased to 45 million euros. Non-controlling interests in the period totalled 79 million euros, an increase of 27 million euros on the back of the non-controlling interests sold to EFG Hermes, Northleaf, DIF III and Fiera Axium as part of the execution of the asset rotation strategy, and to CTG.

BALANCE SHEET

TOTAL EQUITY INCREASES BY 503 MILLION EUROS

Total Equity of 6.8 billion euros increased by 503 million euros in 2015, of which 314 million euros attributable to non-controlling interests. The increased equity attributable to the shareholders of EDPR by 189 million euros is due to mainly the 167 million euros of Net Profit, reduced by the 35 million euros in dividend payments.

Total liabilities increased 11% by +916 million euros, mainly in accounts payable (+375 million euros), financial debt (+318 million euros) and institutional partnerships (+98 million euros).

With total liabilities of 8.9 billion euros, the debt-to-equity ratio of EDPR stood at 130% by the end of 2015, which is an increase from the 126% in 2014. Liabilities were mainly composed of financial debt (47%), liabilities related to institutional partnerships in the US (13%) and accounts payable (26%).

Liabilities to tax equity partnerships in the US stood at 1,165 million euros, and including +254 million dollars of new tax equity proceeds received in the 2015. Deferred revenues related to institutional partnerships primarily represent the non-economic liability associated to the tax credits already realized by the institutional investor, arising from accelerated tax depreciation, and yet to be recognized as income by EDPR throughout the remaining useful lifetime of the respective assets.

Deferred tax liabilities reflect the liabilities arising from temporary differences between the accounting and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Accounts payables include trade suppliers, PP&E suppliers, deferred income related to investment grants received and derivative financial instruments.

As total assets totalled 15.7 billion euros in 2015, the equity ratio of EDPR reached 43%, versus 44% in 2014. Assets were 80% composed of net PP&E - property, plant and equipment, reflecting the cum ulative net invested capital in renewable energy generation assets.

Total net PP&E of 12.6 billion euros changed to reflect 898 million euros of new additions during the year, 844 million euros due to ENEOP consolidation and 583 million euros from forex translation (mainly as the result of a US Dollar appreciation), reduced by 694 million euros for depreciation charges, reclassification of assets to held for sale, impairment losses and write-offs.

Net intangible assets mainly include 1.5 billion euros from goodwill registered in the books, for the most part related to acquisitions in the US and Spain, while accounts receivable are mainly related to loans to related parties, trade receivables, guarantees and tax receivables.

FINANCIAL DEBT

LONG-TERM AND STABLE DEBT PROFILE

EDPR's total Financial Debt increased by 326 million euros to 4.1 billion euros, reflecting US Dollar appreciation, investments done in the period and the proceeds from the execution of the asset rotation transactions. Loans with EDP group, EDPR's principal shareholder, accounted or 74% of the debt, while loans with financial institutions represented 26%.

To continue to diversify its funding sources EDPR keeps on executing top quality projects enabling the company to secure local project finance at competitive costs. In 2015, EDPR closed three project finance transactions: i) in Brazil for wind farms under construction with total capacity of 120 MW, in a total amount of 306 million reais; in Belgium for a 14 MW wind farm in operation, for 16 million euros; and in Poland for a 54 MW wind farm in operation, for 167 million of Polish Zlotys.

As of December 2015, 51% of EDPR's financial debt was Euro denominated, 40% was funded in US Dollars, related to the company's investment in the United States, and the remaining 9% was mostly related with debt in Polish Zloty and Brazilian Real.

EDPR continues to follow a long-term fixed rate funding strategy, matching the Operating Cash-Flow profile with its financial costs and therefore mitigating interest rate risk. Therefore, as of December 2015, 90% of EDPR's financial debt had a fixed interest rate and only 14% had maturity schedule until 2018. 40% of EDPR's financial debt had maturity in 2018, reflecting a set of 10-year loans granted by EDP in 2008, and 46% in 2019 and beyond. As of December 2015, the average interest rate was 4.3%, lower versus 5.2% in December 2014.

INSTITUTIONAL PARTNERSHIPS

Liabilities referred to Institutional Partnerships increased to 1,165 million euros from 1,165 million euros in 2014, due to US dollar appreciation, the benefits captured by the tax equity partners and the establishment of new institutional tax equity financing structures during the period.

EUROPE

REVENUES

In Europe, EDPR delivered revenues of 832 million euros, an increase of 85 million euros versus 2014, reflecting the impact from higher electricity output, increasing 8% versus 2014 to 10,062 GWh, and higher average selling price, increasing by 3% versus 2014 to 83 euros per MWh.

In detail, the decrease in revenues was a result of higher revenues in Rest of Europe (+38 million euros), Portugal (+24 million euros) and Spain (+21m million euros, including hedges). Consequently, the contribution from Spain totalled 45%, while contribution from Portugal and Rest of Europe totalled 23% and 32%, respectively.

AVERAGE SELLING PRICE

The average selling price in Europe increased 3% to 83 euros per MWh, mainly driven by higher average selling price in Spanish, following 2014 abnormally low selling price due to weather conditions. In Portugal the average selling price was 95 euros per MWh, lower versus 2014, reflecting ENEOP consolidation since 1st September. In Rest of Europe the average selling price was lower versus 2014, reaching 86 per MWh, mainly impacted by the lower realised price in Romania, with green certificates being sold at the floor of the regulated collar.

Average Selling Price (€/MWh)

NET OPERATING COSTS

Net Operating Costs decreased by 61 million euros, to 141 million euros, mainly explained by the increase in Other operating income following the gain subsequent to the control acquisition of certain assets of ENEOP, partially mitigated by the increase in Other operating costs on the back of write-offs of certain projects, higher rents and taxes due to the higher capacity in operation. In 2015, Supplies & Services and Personnel Costs per average MW in operation decreased 1% YoY to 41 thousand euros, supported by EDPR's asset management strategy and higher capacity in operation. Reflecting the lower wind resource in the period, Supplies & Services and Personnel Costs per MWh stood stable YoY at 17.6 euros.

All in all, EBITDA in Europe totalled 690 million euros, leading to an EBITDA margin of 83%, while EBIT reached 401 million euros.

NORTH AMERICA

REVENUES

In 2015, Revenues increased 15% to 772 million US Dollars, supported by 9% increase in production and stable overall average selling price.

AVERAGE SELLING PRICE

Average selling price in the region stood unchanged versus 2014, at \$51 per MWh, In the US the average selling price increased to \$51 per MWh, versus \$50 per MWh in 2014, benefiting from higher production towards PPA/Hedge along with higher realised merchant price, as in the 2014 prices were impacted by extreme weather conditions that increased balancing and congestion costs, and in 2015 prices increased mostly due to an increase of REC prices. In Canada, EDPR average selling price was \$113 per MWh, lower versus 2014 mainly reflecting forex translation.

NET OPERATING COSTS

Net Operating Costs increased to 259 million US Dollars, mainly due to the increase in Other operating costs and in Personnel costs, at a lower extend. The increase in Other operating costs was driven by write-offs and by the booking of property taxes related to new wind farms. Reflecting control over costs and strong efficiency levels, Supplies & Services and Personnel Costs per Avg. MW in operation decreased 3% YoY, and decreased by 2% per MWh, impacted by the lower wind resource in the period.

INSTITUTIONAL PARTNERSHIPS AND GOVERNMENT GRANTS

Income from Institutional Partnerships increased to 219 million US Dollars, reflecting in part an one-off event from an update of tax equity investors' postflip residual interest accretion. The projects that opted for the cash grant benefited from lower depreciation charges, booked in the income statement as amortisation of government grants, totalling 23 million US Dollars.

In 2015, EDPR received 268 million US Dollars from institutional tax equity financing structures, related to proceeds of the last tranche of an institutional tax equity financing structure signed in October 2014 and from two institutional partnership structures signed 2015, for 99 MW of Rising Tree South and 100 MW Arbuckle wind farm.

In addition, in 2015, EDPR signed an institutional partnership structure for the 199 MW Waverly wind farm, which financial closing occurred in the beginning of 2016.

All in all, EBITDA went up 7% to 513 million US Dollars, leading the EBITDA margin to increase to 66%.

Accordingly, in 2015, 100% of the new Directors have been hired internally and there has been a total of 81 promotions.

The Mobility processes within EDPR aim to respond to the different challenges and needs of the Group, considering specific characteristics of the different geographical locations.

INTEGRATION

As EDPR has a strong company culture, we want new hires to adopt this culture and quickly integrate it in the day-to-day activities. To facilitate this process, new hires are involved in numerous workshops and team building activities focused on improving integration and gaining a better knowledge of the company.

Our Welcome Day, a three day event for new hires, allows new employees to obtain basic acquaintance of the company and our business. Depending on the employee's profile, we offer them a visit to one of the wind farms or the remote control dispatch centre.

2.1.2. DEVELOPMENT

The development of our employees is a strategic target at EDPR. We offer employees an attractive career development program, as well as a continuing education and training opportunities to stimulate the acquisition of new knowledge and individual skills, while aligning people's training with the Company's internationalization and competitiveness challenges.

In order to support the Company's growth, aligning current and future organization demands with employees' capabilities and to fulfil their professional development, EDPR has designed Development Programs adapted to Middle Management whose main target is to provide tools that may be helpful for facing new responsibilities.

During 2015, EDPR carried out the following Programs:

L EAD NOW PRO GRAM : an advanced development program intended for EDPR Middle Managers to support the team leader role assumed. During the program, participants have the chance to self-assess their management style, go deep into the skills needed for leading effectively and get to know their new role in the different HR Processes of the company.
EX EC U T IV E D EV E LO PM E N T PROGRAM : a customized development program carried out along with a leading Business School designed to increase business skills and leadership capabilities of top-performing employees from across all disciplines to help them taking management decisions in a fastpaced and competitive business. During the program, employees are involved in core business areas, working on a Business Case for EDPR to analyse new strategic opportunities for the company, resulting in the creation of different work groups to implement the recommendations once the program ended.

COAC H I NG PRO GRAM : intended for employees who have previously participated in the High Potential Program. Conducted by an external coach, provides guidance to Directors of the Company that act as Coaches for the Participants along the Program. This Program allows participants to fine-tune their skills with the support of a Director during the Coaching Sessions.

In addition to these specific Development Programs, each year, a customized Training Plan is created for all our employees based on the results of a 360 potential appraisal process to define their training needs, providing a framework that aims to align current and future organization demands.

In 2015, we spent a total of 38.618 training hours, representing 37.9 hours of training per employee. Almost all the employees (99%) received training during 2015.

RENEWABLE ENERGY SCHOOL

To achieve our training and new employees' integration strategy, the Renewable Energy School plays a fundamental role. Created in 2011 in the framework of the corporate EDP University, shares the mission of promoting the development of individuals, facilitating learning and sharing of knowledge generated within the Group and developing the skills needed to ensure the sustainability of the businesses operated by EDP in all the geographic settings in which the company is present. The ambition of the School goes beyond pure training, the School emerged as a platform for sharing knowledge, experience and best practices across the company.

During the year, 33 training sessions were delivered in Europe, United States, and Brazil, representing a total of 7.042 training hours and 780 attendances (540 employees reached which represents 53% of the headcount). The School engaged 103 experts within the organization to deliver the training sessions, 48% of whom were Directors and Head of department, which enhances the transfer of knowledge.

POTENTIAL APPRAISAL

Current challenges of EDP Group include new requirements so this year our potential analysis model have been improved with two main goals:

Align all segments of the organization with the current strategy and projects, capitalising on new business opportunities, all in a more global and diversified context.
Strengthen the employees' life cycle momentum in which their professional and personal development is promoted.

Amplify is the new model for analysing skills and potential and for identifying development actions to help employees on their goals achievement. This process builds the future, taking into account that the better our skills are, the better way we impact both the people around us and the organisation.

This model is intended to promote a culture where employees receive feedback on an ongoing basis, because this is essential to ensure alignment with EDP group and to promote development.

2.1.3. REWARD AND WORK LIFE BALANCE

We want to recognize the work and talent of our employees, so we are committed to offer a competitive compensation and benefits packages. The compensation policy addresses the needs of local markets and provides flexibility to adapt to the specifics of each region. The fixed base compensation is completed by a variable component that depends on an individual evaluation measured against individual, area and company KPIs.

In addition, we understand the importance of maintaining a balance between work and personal commitments. This understanding has led to an increase of employees' satisfaction, while boosting productivity and morale. Work Life Balance (WLB) for us is more than measures for employees with children, it is a set of initiatives to promote a positive work climate where employees can develop their career and give their best. And we believe that WLB must be a shared responsibility. We seek to constantly improve our WLB program and provide the most suitable benefits to employees. We even define often specific benefits that are tailored and applicable to certain countries where EDPR is present.

Since 2011, EDPR's practices have been recognized with the Family Responsible Employer Certification (EFR-Empresa Familiarmente Responsable) by the MásFamilia Foundation, in Spain. This certification has been renovated and taking the recognition to the next level defining EDPR as a "Proactive Company", which reflects our commitment to promote a healthy work-life balance for our employees.

In addition, EDPR has been ranked one more year among the 50 best companies to work in 2015 as determined by the Great Place to Work rankings in Spain and Poland. We are sure that a motivated workforce aligned with the company's strategy is one of the key drivers behind our ability to deliver on results.

2.1.4. INTERNAL COMMUNICATION

Our focus in 2015 has been to continue improving our internal communications, and to keep employees informed, motivated, and committed to the company's strategy. Moreover, our global presence with employees from 28 nationalities require us to listen and provide feedback on the different ambitions and expectations. In 2015, we have developed a Climate survey with new topics and questions in an effort to better reflect employees' reality. EDPR and EDP Group have strategically invested in this area with innovative communication channels that have consistently been recognized internationally for their mix of dynamism and creativity.

These are our internal communication channels that keep employees informed and connected every day:

INTRANET: Our award-winning intranet platform takes online interaction among employees to a new level, by including social media-style features and advanced customization options. It's a place to share information, work together, and learn about the projects and news from EDPR and EDP
ED PO N RE N EW MAGAZ INE : Our print magazine has been a mainstay of EDP Group's internal communications since 1988. The OnRenew edition, specific to EDPR, shows the company and its people through stories, opinion articles and editorials.
ED PO N TV : Our TV Channel has been broadcasting on our offices and online over the past 8 years. Includes dynamic news reports and interviews on news and events. It is the medium that truly puts a face on our projects and initiatives.
HR P HO NE A P P : In 2015, EDPR has created a new phone app to provide employees with news, access to selection processes or measures in a practical and simple way. This tool proves to be particularly useful to keep connected to often-travelling and geographically dispersed employees.
INTERNAL NEWSLETTERS: Monthly newsletters give a broader reach to news and information regarding our projects, teams, successes, and strategies.

In addition to these communication channels, we hold companywide Annual Meetings that allow employees to streamline their long-distance communication to improve their day-to-day work, share their concerns, and get to know the business goals set by EDPR's top management. We also hold meetings and team building events; conference calls regarding results, and a robust website that informs both internal and external stakeholders.

In this sense, in 2015 we have initiated the "Talking to Improve" initiative, where different departments are invited to share with the CEO its surveys services results, with the internal feedback provided by other departments about the service offered, and identify areas for improvement and strengths.

All of these communication efforts work to motivate employees, promote knowledge sharing and bring people together.

Maintaining an ongoing dialog with community members is an integral part of our business activity. We carry on discussions and meetings with local stakeholders during all phases of the development and operation of our power plants, to learn about their concerns and to determine the best way to address them. It is also an opportunity to communicate some of EDPR's core values to the local community.

EDP FOUNDATION IN SPAIN

The mission of the EDP Foundation in Spain is to strengthen the commitment of the EDP Group with sustainable development across the country.

The selected projects were all related to a priority area identified, including support for in-need populations, the integration of communities at risk of social exclusion and the promotion of employment and entrepreneurship.

ENGANGING WITH OUR COMMUNITIES

France: crowdfunding project

The project for Escardes Wind Farm, in France, has taken community involvement to a different level by allowing people to participate financially.

As a result of growing demand for increased financial participation from local authorities and residents, a crowdfunding initiative has been launched for this windfarm of 12MW, now under construction and with expected completion in the first half of 2016. The purpose was to raise a debt tranche to be held by local community members.

This kind of local participative investment (either in the form of local shareholdings or local loans) is seen as a means to increase public support, minimize litigation, reduce the "Not In My Backyard" attitude, and align interests toward the development of renewable energy projects.

Europe: Generation EDPR

At EDPR, we believe it is essential to meet today's objectives without compromising tomorrow's.

That's why we not only focus on producing clean energy, but also work to support future generations with projects like University Challenge (in its 7th edition), a project that aims to promote the education, creativity and development of university students; Your Energy, an international program that helps children discover the world of renewable energies; and Green Education, an international project to support the education of children and teenagers of families with limited resources.

These projects exist because we believe there is no better way to contribute to society than to support the education and training of generations to come.

Poland: for and with local communities

To maintain strong and positive long-term relationships with local communities in Poland, the company has organized several events and activities to involve and engage all of the people living in the areas surrounding its wind farms.

During the year, EDPR has been involved in more than 28 events supporting more than 10 communities. Local sports championships, cultural activities promoted with local organizations, educational and environmental activities are among the many initiatives held in Poland in 2015.

Spain: Solidarity team building

In 2015, 600 employees in Europe were invited to be part of something different. Taking advantage of the fact that most of them were gathered together in activity was to put together humanitarian aid kits destined for 329 Syrian refugees in Spain.

United States: Volunteers give back to children

EDPR North America supports the local community with many initiatives. One of them was the volunteer work conducted by employees with "Undies for Everyone", a nonprofit organization providing clean underwear to economically disadvantaged children in the Houston area.

3. SAFETY FIRST

ZERO ACCIDENTS MINDSET

Guaranteeing the health, safety and well-being of our employees and contractors is a top priority at EDPR, and this commitment is supported by our Health and Safety policy.

At EDPR, we are conscious that we work in a sector that is particularly sensitive to the occupational risk. Therefore, we place special emphasis on prevention by training, communicating and certifying our facilities.

As an integral part of our health and safety strategy, employees participate in training courses and risk assessment activities based on the potential risks associated with their position. Our employees follow the guidelines rigorously and strive to achieve a safe workplace for all those who provide services in our facilities.

Committees and subcommittees throughout EDPR support the implementation of health and safety measures. These committees collect information from different operational levels and involve employees with the creation and communication of a preventative plan.

In order to achieve our zero accidents goal, EDPR has implemented health and safety management systems based on the OSHAS 18001:2007 specifications. The standards and procedures of these systems are adapted to the specifics of each geography where they are implemented, and are developed based on country regulation and industry best practices. Our commitment to the health and safety of our employees and contractors is further supported through the OHSAS 18001 certification. EDPR is working actively to have all installed capacity certified by 2017.

INDICATORS:

The implementation of our health and safety management systems allow us to record and monitor the number of accidents, which aids us in achieving our zero accident goal. During 2015, EDPR registered 27 accidents. The trend is decreasing in Europe and US but it is compensated by higher short-term absence accidents in Brazil, impacted by higher construction activity in the country, which led to an increase in the frequency rate. Additionally, the severity rate increased, due to one long-term absence coming from 2014 and three during 2015, which have led to 63% of the total days lost.

Overall, the trend is improving despite the increase in number of accidents in Brazil. A greater focus on communication of our policies, plus the realization of the benefits from OHSAS certification that occurred at the end of this year in Brazil, will help drive the improvement of these statistics.

EUROPE AND US HAVE LOWER H&S INDICATORS DUE TO MORE TRAINING HOURS AND EMERGENCY PLANS BOTH FOR STAFF AND CONTRACTORS.

4. POSITIVE BALANCE ON THE ENVIRONMENT

EDPR is committed to protect the environment, we complement our strategy of fighting against climate change with an environmentally responsible management of our wind farms. This strategy is based on the Environmental and Biodiversity policies. Our policies reflect a responsible management of the environment along the whole value chain.

The operation stage of wind farms, with a useful life of 25 years, stands as the core of our business. According to this, we are really conscious of the importance of proper management of environmental matters in our facilities in operation, which is assured through the Environmental Management System (EMS).

The EMS is developed in accordance with the ISO 14001 international standard and certified by an independent certifying organization.This standard is considered the world's benchmark for EMS Management Systems and is a guarantee that EDPR sites, regardless of its regulatory environment are aligned and at the same level of compliance. 92%* of EDPR's installed capacity is covered by ISO 14001 certification. Additionally, in the frame of the Sustainability roadmap 2013-2017, EDPR has the goal to certify 100% of the installed MWs by end 2017.

EDPR is committed to promote environment conservation and aspires to have an active role in contributing to the world's objective of reducing climate change. To do so, we take environment into consideration in all our business activities, seeking a positive balance.

18,717 kt CO2 AVOIDED

Growth in wind and solar installations will lead to a substantial reduction in CO2 emissions.

Promoting a shift from conventional fossil fuels to renewable energy is one of the most effective and feasible near-term ways of mitigating climate change.

BIODIVERSITY

Aspect: EDPR co-exists peacefully and abundantly with most wildlife. Even though mitigating climate change is the best way to protect biodiversity, we are aware that our operations can have an impact on the local flora and fauna where our windfarms are constructed and operated.

MITIGATION OR COMPENSATION MEASURES:
Prevent: Potential environmental impacts are analysed in detail in the environmental impact studies of the projects.
Correct and/or Compensate: EDPR respects biodiversity in all phases of the plant's life-cycle.

WATER & WASTES**

Aspect: We produce clean and green energy, water-free and with low wastes generation. Even though we are in a clean energy business, we go beyond our commitment with the close monitoring of operations and by fostering a corporate culture of responsibility.

MITIGATION OR COMPENSATION MEASURES:

Therefore we are committed to measure the footprint from our administrative activities and plants electricity consumption, representing 0.2% of the emissions avoided.
The company has been actively working to improve the recovery rate of its hazardous wastes reaching a rate of 73%, 98% without considering the soil removed from the mentioned spillage.

EMERGENCIES

Aspect: Given our activity and locations, oil spills and fires are the major environmental-related emergency risks. The EMS is designed to prevent emergency situations but in case they happen, the system covers the management of these, including the near-miss situations.

MITIGATION OR COMPENSATION MEASURES:

EDPR defined a new Crisis Management Plan in Europe during 2015.
During 2015, EDPR conducted 216 environmental drills to guarantee that our employees and contractors are familiar with the risks and have received the appropriate training to prevent and act, if necessary. A total of 46 near-misses were reported and acted upon.
In 2015, we had only 1 significant spill. The contamined soil was removed and fully restored.

COMMUNITY

Aspect: EDPR considers local communities at the centre of its operations creating shared value but we are also aware that our operations could impact local neighbours with discomforts such as visual impact or noise.

MITIGATION OR COMPENSATION MEASURES:

Prevent: We elaborate social impact studies during development of the windfarms that may impact the layout of the windfarm if necessary.
Communicate: EDPR has in place open channels for claims reporting. During 2015, registered a total of 94 environmental-related complains mainly due to TV interferences that were promptly and satisfactorily corrected.
Compensate: During 2015, EDPR participated in environmental related activities such as environmental volunteering programs or partnerships with public entitites.

5. INNOVATION

Innovation is about new technologies for more renewable energy - such as offshore wind - but that is not all: it is also about attitude, looking for ongoing improvement every day at what we do.

Our company has been implementing successful innovative solutions to increase the operational and economic performance of our assets for years, throughall the lifecycle of our projects: improving the design of the layouts to achieve the best wind resource, decreasing construction costs and risks and increasing the production of our operational power plants developing new technological solutions designed in-house.

After great results, the innovation efforts will continue in our onshore operations, as well as EDPR's new focus on finding feasible solutions in the offshore section of our business. To do so our company participates in two projects that focus on the foundations, one of the most important elements of the power plant. Both based in the coast of Aguçadoura (north of Portugal), thus sharing knowledge and resources, WindFloat and DEMOGRAVI3 will help to reduce costs opening new markets for the offshore wind industry.

WINDFLOAT

The 'WindFloat' project is one of the flagstaffs of the renewable R&D project list at EDP, with a deep waters offshore prototype that has reported excellent results after four years in operation under harsh conditions, having to endure waves up to 15 meters high, off the northern coast of Portugal.

This is the most ambitious innovation project on floating offshore technology conducted worldwide so far, the first wind energy turbine in open waters in the Atlantic ocean, and also the first time for a triangular semisubmersible floating structure supporting a 2 MW wind turbine allowing the utilization of offshore winds with great stability at water depths below 40 meters, existing at long distances from the coast. It is the first offshore wind energy project in the world not requiring the use of any heavy offshore lifting equipment. The whole process of final assembly, installation and commissioning was performed on land, in a controlled environment. When the construction on land was completed in dry docks, the structure was towed for about 350 kilometres in the open water. The capability to undertake the towing operation under such circumstances can be attributed to the performance and stability of WindFloat. These factors also allow any ready-to-use commercial wind turbines of any manufacturer to be installed on WindFloat. The project is a partnership between EDP, Repsol, Principle Power, A. Silva Matos, Vestas and InovCapital and is also supported by the Innovation Support Fund (FAI), involving more than 60 suppliers, more than two thirds are Portuguese.

After successfully finalizing the first phase of the project, next steps consists on the installation of a full scale floating wind farm of 27 MW.

DEMOGRAVI3

In November 2015 EDP was granted European funding to develop new technology for offshore wind power. DEMOGRAVI3 is a project that aims to develop an innovative gravity based foundation for offshore wind turbines and will be funded by the European Commission's Horizon 2020 programme.

The consortium developing this new project will be coordinated by EDP, through EDPR. DEMOGRAVI3 will test a wind turbine with an innovative gravitational foundation made of concrete and steel. The project will last for four years, including the installation of a wind turbine taking advantage of the underwater cable connecting the WindFloat turbine to a substation on land.

Unlike the solution based on a floating platform successfully tested with Windfloat, DEMOGRAVI3 will be installed on the seabed, although it will already be assembled and floated to the mooring place. The whole structure of the turbine and its constituent elements will be assembled on shore and then transported. The main innovation of this structure thus avoids the necessity for heavy lift vessels to anchor and assemble all the turbine components in an offshore environment.

The project includes other technological partners such as: TYPSA, ASM Energia, Univ. Politécnica de Madrid, WavEC, Acciona Infraestructuras, Fraunhofer Gesellschaft IWES, Gavin & Doherty Geo Solutions and Global Maritime AS.

Pursuant to the terms of article 15 of the Articles of Association, electronic votes must be received by the Company before midnight (24.00 hours) of the day before the scheduled meeting date of first call.

14. DECISIONS THAT CAN ONLY BE ADOPTED BY A QUALIFIED QUORUM

EDPR has approved on the last General Shareholders Meeting of April 9th, a modification of the Articles of Association in order to adapt them to the changes introduced by the regulation set by the New Spanish Law, which are more favourable to the shareholders, and more protective of their position. Among others, one of such modifications was related to the qualified quorum and the reinforced majority as described below.

According to EDPR's Articles of Association and as established on the law, both ordinary and extraordinary General Shareholders' Meetings are validly constituted when first called if the Shareholders, either present or represented by proxy, represent at least twenty five percent (25%) of the subscribed voting capital. On the second call, the General Shareholders' Meeting will be validly constituted regardless of the amount of the capital present.

To validly approve the issuance of bonds, the increase or reduction of capital, the transformation, global assignment of assets and liabilities, merger or spin-off of the Company, the transfer of the Registered Office abroad, the elimination of preemptive rights of new shares and in general any necessary amendment to the Articles of Association, in the Ordinary or Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting, it is required that on first call, the Shareholders, either present or represented by proxy, represent at least fifty percent (50%) subscribed voting capital and, on second call, at least twenty five percent (25%) of the subscribed voting capital.

In relationto the quorum required to validly approve these matters, in accordance with the Law and the Articles of Association, when the shareholders attending represent more than fifty percent (50%) of the subscribed voting capital, the above mentioned resolutions will be validly adopted by absolute majority and in the case the shareholders attending represent between the twenty-five percent (25%) and the fifty percent (50%)- but without reaching it- the favourable vote of two-thirds (2/3) of the present or represented capital in the General Shareholders' Meeting will be required in order to approve these resolutions.

EDPR has not established any mechanism that may intend to cause mismatching between the right to receive dividends or the subscription of new securities and the voting right of each common share and has not adopted mechanisms that hinder the passing of resolutions by shareholders, including fixing a quorum for resolutions greater than that provided by the law.

II. MANAGEMENT AND SUPERVISION

A. COMPOSITION

15. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE MODEL

EDPR is a Spanish Company listed in a regulated stock exchange in Portugal. EDP Renováveis' corporate organization is subject to its personal law and to the extent possible, to the recommendations contained in the Portuguese Corporate Governance Code, ("Código de Governo das Sociedades") approved by the Comissão do Mercado de Valores Mobiliários (CMVM- Portuguese Securities Market Commission-) in July 2013. This governance code is available to the public at CMVM website (www.cmvm.pt).

The organization and functioning of EDPR corporate governance model aims to achieve the highest standards of corporate governance, business conduct and ethics referenced on the best national and international practices in corporate governance.

EDPR has adopted the governance structure in effect in Spain. It comprises a General Shareholders' Meeting and a Board of Directors that represents and manages the Company.

As required by law and the Articles of Association, the Company's Board of Directors has set up four committees. These are the Executive Committee, the Audit and Control Committee, the Nominations and Remunerations Committee and the Related-Party Transactions Committee.

In order to ensure a better understanding of EDPR corporate governance by its shareholders, the Company posts its updated Articles of Association as well as its Committees Regulations at www.edprenovaveis.com.

The governance model of EDPR was designed to ensure the transparent, meticulous separation of duties and the specialization of supervision. EDPR' bodies for the management and supervision model are the following:

General Shareholders' Meeting
Board of Directors
Executive Committee
Audit and Control Committee
External auditor

The purpose of the choice of this model is to adapt, to the extent possible, the Company's corporate governance structure to the Portuguese legislation. The governance model adopted by EDPR therefore seeks, as far as it is compatible with its personal law, to correspond to the so-called "Anglo-Saxon" model set forth in the Portuguese Commercial Companies Code, in which the management body is the Board of Directors, and the supervision and control duties are of the responsibility of an Audit and Control Committee.

Following the recommendations of CMVM, Article 12 of the Board of Directors regulations requires that at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the Members of the Board have to be independent. Article 20.2 of EDPR's Articles of Association defines independent members of the Board of Directors as those who are able to perform their duties without being limited by relations with the Company, its shareholders with significant holdings, or its Directors and comply with the other legal requirements.

In addition, pursuant to Article 23 of the Articles of Association, the following may not be Directors:

People who are Directors of or are associated with any competitor of EDPR and those who are related to the above. A Company shall be considered to be a competitor of EDPR if it is directly or indirectly involved in the generation, storage, transmission, distribution, sale, or supply of electricity or combustible gases and also those that have interests opposed to those of EDPR, a competitor or any of the companies in its Group, and Directors, employees, lawyers, consultants, or representatives of any of them. Under no circumstances shall companies belonging to the same group as EDPR, including abroad, be considered competitors;
People who are in any other situation of incompatibility or prohibition under the law or EDPR's Articles of Association. Under Spanish law, people, who are i) aged under eighteen (18) years, (ii) disqualified, iii) competitors; (iv) convicted of certain offences, or (v) hold certain management positions, among others, are not allowed to be Directors.

The Chairman of EDPR's Board of Directors does not have executive duties.

C. POWERS AND DUTIES

37. PROCEDURES FOR HIRING ADDITIONAL SERVICES TO THE EXTERNAL AUDITOR

In EDPR there is a policy of pre-approval by the Audit and Control Committee for the selection of the External Auditor and any related entity for non-audit services, according to Recommendation IV.2 of the Portuguese Corporate Governance Code. This policy was strictly followed during 2015.

The services, other than auditing services, provided by the External Auditor and entities in a holding relationship with or incorporated in the same network as the External Auditor were previously approved by the Audit and Control Committee according to Article 8.2, b) of its Regulations and upon review of each specific service, which considered the following aspects: (i) such services having no effect on the independence of the External Auditor and any safeguards used; and (ii) the position of the External Auditor in the provision of such services, notably the External Auditor's experience and knowledge of the Company.

Furthermore, although hiring services other than auditing services to the External Auditor is admissible, it is envisaged as an exception. In 2015 such services reached only around 17% of the total amount of services provided to the Company.

38. OTHER DUTIES OF THE AUDIT AND CONTROL COMMITTEE

Apart from the competences expressly delegated on the Audit and Control Committee according to Article 8 of its Regulations and in order to safeguard the independence of the External Auditor, the following powers of the Audit and Control Committee were exercised during the 2015 financial year and should be highlighted:

Nominate and hire the External Auditor and responsibility for establishing their remuneration as well as pre-approval of any services to be hired from the External Auditor and perform its direct and exclusive supervision;
Assessment of the qualifications, independence, and performance of the External Auditors, and obtaining, yearly and directly from the External Auditors, written information on all relations existing between the Company and the Auditors or associated persons, including all services rendered and all services in progress; in fact, the Audit Committee, in order to evaluate independence, obtained from the External Auditors information on their independence in light of article 62B of Decree-Law no. 224/2008 ofNovember 20th 2008, which amends the articles of association of the Chartered Accountant Professional Association;
Review of the transparency report, signed by the Auditor and disclosed at its website. This report covers the matters provided for under article 62A of Decree-Law no. 224/2008, including those regarding the quality control internal system of the audit firm and the quality control procedures carried out by the competent authorities;
Definition of the Company's hiring policy concerning persons who have worked or currently work with the External Auditors;
Review, with the External Auditors, of the scope, planning, and resources to be used in their services;
Responsibility for the settlement of any differences between the Executive Committee and the External Auditors concerning financial information;
Contracts signed between EDPR and its Qualified Shareholders that were analysed by the Audit and Control Committee. This information is included on the annual report of the Audit and Control Committee regarding those cases that needed a previous opinion from the committee.

Within this context, it should be particularly stressed that the External Auditor' independence was safeguarded by the implementation of the Company's policy for the pre-approval of the services to be hired to External Auditors (or any entity in a holding relationship with or incorporating the same network as the External Auditors), which results from the application of the rules issued by SEC on this matter. According to such policy, the Audit and Control Committee makes an overall pre-approval of the services proposal made by the External Auditors and a specific pre-approval of other services that will eventually be provided by the External Auditors, particularly tax consultancy services and services other than "audit and audit related" services.

II. REPORTING OF IRREGULARITIES

49. IRREGULARITIES COMMUNICATION CHANNELS

WHISTLEBLOWING

EDPR has always carried out its activity by consistently implementing measures to ensure the good governance of its companies, including the prevention of incorrect practices, particularly in the areas of accounting and finance.

EDPR provides the Group workers with a channel enabling them to report directly and confidentially to the Audit and Control Committee any practice presumed illicit or any alleged accounting and/or financial irregularity in their Company, in compliance with the provisions of CMVM Regulation no. 4/2013.

With this channel for reporting irregular accounting and financial practices, EDPR aims to:

Guarantee conditions that allow workers to freely report any concerns they may have in these areas to the Audit and Control Committee;
Facilitate the early detection of irregular situations, which, if practiced, might cause serious damage to the EDPR Group, its workers, customers, and shareholders.

Contact with the Company's Audit and Control Committee is only possible by email and post, and access to information received is restricted.

Any complaint addressed to the Audit and Control Committee will be kept strictly confidential and the whistleblower will remain anonymous, provided that this does not prevent the investigation of the complaint. S/he will be assured that the Company will not take any retaliatory or disciplinary action as a result of exercising his/her right to blow the whistle on irregularities, provide information, or assist in an investigation.

The Secretary of the Audit and Control Committee receives all the communications and presents a quarterly report to the members of the Committee.

In 2015 there were no communications regarding any irregularity at EDPR.

ETHICS CHANNEL AND CODE OF ETHICS

EDPR has a Code of Ethics published on its intranet and its website, which includes principles like transparency, honesty, integrity, non-discrimination, equal opportunity, and sustainability.

The Code of Ethics has been widely circulated among employees of the Group through internal communications mechanisms, individual shipments, delivery to new employees, and intranet publishing. On February 2014, the Board of Directors approved an updated version of the Code of Ethics.

There is a strong commitment by the Company in relation to the dissemination and promotion of compliance with the Code available to all employees through training, questionnaires, and open discussions of the findings.

There is also an Ethics Channel and Ethics Regulation to articulate any specific claims of the Code of Ethics and to resolve doubts on all matters relating to the Code of Ethics.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2015 20

Communications regarding possible breaches of the Code of Ethics are sent to the Ethics Ombudsman, who performs a first analysis, forwarding its conclusion to the Ethics Committee of EDPR, which receives, records, processes, and reports it to the Board of Directors.

In 2015 there were no communications to the Ethics Ombudsmen regarding any irregularity at EDPR.

The Ethics Code is available at our website www.edprenovaveis.com

ANTI-CORRUPTION POLICY

In order to ensure compliance with the standards of Anti-Corruption Regulation in every geography where EDPR operates, the Company developed in 2014 an Anti-Bribery Policy of application to all EDPR Group, which was approved by its Board of Directors on December 19th, 2014. This Anti-Corruption Policy implies a series of new procedures regarding the relationships of EDPR employees with external parties, namely the approval of certain actions regarding hospitality to and from external parties, charitable donations, and sponsorships. This Policy was implemented in the Group in 2015, through the introduction of several approval systems in the corporate's employee channels in order to ensure transparency and prevent any corrupt business practice, and was communicated to all EDPR employees. Once this implementation was finished, the corresponding training sessions were organized for part of our employees, and also made available in the intranet, in order to ensure appropriate knowledge and understanding of the Policy.

The Anti-Corruption Policy is available at our website www.edprenovaveis.com

III. INTERNAL CONTROL AND RISK MANAGEMENT

50. INTERNAL AUDIT

EDPR Internal Audit Department is composed by seven people. The function of EDPR's Internal Audit is to carry out an objective and independent assessment of the Group's activities and of its internal control situation, in order to make recommendations to improve the internal control mechanisms over systems and management processes in accordance with the Group's objectives.

Additionally, EDPR has a Responsibilities Model and a SCIRF Manual (Internal Control System over Financial Reporting), in which individuals, governing bodies and committees responsible for implementing and managing the internal control system are indicated.

The Responsibilities Model includes the functions and main activities in the management and maintenance of the system at all levels of the organization including monitoring activities related to the annual cycle, the implementation of controls and documentation of evidence and supervision activities.

The SCIRF Manual incorporates the general principles of the Internal Control System over Financial Reporting as well as the methodology used, the procedures for ensuring the effectiveness of internal control and design of models, documentation, evaluation and reporting.

In line with the general principles of the model adopted by EDPR for the management of the SCIRF, the COSO Internal Control Integrated Framework 2013 (Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission), the responsibility for supervising the Internal Control System lies in the Board of Directors and the Audit and Control Committee. The CEO is accountable before the Board, must ensure the proper functioning and effectiveness of the SCIRF, promoting its design, implementation and maintenance. The Executive Committee must support the CEO in this task, guiding the development of the Entity Level Controls of the Company and the controls in their areas of responsibility, relying when necessary on other levels of the organization. Also, the Senior Managers are responsible for evaluating any deficiencies and implementing appropriate improvement opportunities.

To fulfil these responsibilities, EDPR's Internal Audit offers support and advice to the management and development of the SCIRF.

51. ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE OF INTERNAL AUDIT

The Internal Audit function in EDPR Group is a corporate function carried out by the Internal Audit Department, that reports both to the Chairman of EDPR's Executive Committee and to EDPR's Audit and Control Committee.

52. RISK MANAGEMENT

EDPR's Risk Management is as an integrating element of all organizational processes and decisions and not a stand-alone activity separated from the main activities of the company. It includes from strategic planning to evaluation of new investments and contracts.

Risk Management at EDPR is supported by three distinct organizational functions, each one with a different role: Strategy (Risk Profiler), Management (Risk Manager) and Controlling (Risk Controller).

Market, credit and operational risks are identified and assessed and, following the result of the assessment, Risk Policies are defined and implemented across the company. These policies are aimed to mitigate risks without compromising potential opportunities, thus, optimizing return versus risk exposure.

During 2015, EDPR defined or reviewed four Global Risk Policies: Energy Hedging Policy, Counterparty Risk Policy, Operational Risk Policy and Country Risk Policy. These policies are already implemented.

53. RISK MAP

Risk Management at EDPR is focused on covering all risks of the company. In order to have a holistic view of risks, they are grouped in Risk Areas, covering the entire business cycle of EDPR, and in Risk Categories, following a standard classification of risks.

Risk Areas are Countries & regulations, Revenues, Financing, Wind turbine contracts, Pipeline development, and Operations. Within each Risk Area, risks are classified in Risk Groups.

Risk Categories are Market, Counterparty, Operational, Business and Strategic. Each Risk Group can also be classified into a Risk Category. Thus, for each Risk Group there is a corresponding Risk Area and Risk Category.

The definition of Risk Categories at EDPR is as follows:

1. Market Risk - It refers to the risk to an institution resulting from movements in market prices, in particular, changes in electricity prices, interest rates, foreign exchange rates and other commodity prices.

2.Counterparty Risk (credit and operational) - Risk that counterparty to a transaction could default before final settlement of the transaction's cash flows. A direct economic loss would occur if transactions with the counterparty had positive economic value at the time of default. Even in the case of not defaulting, it may not comply with its contract obligations (timing, quality, etc.), implying additional higher costs due to its replacement or to delays in fulfilling the contract

3. Operational Risk (other than counterparty) – Defined as the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems or from external events (other than counterparty).

4. Business Risk - Potential loss in the company's earnings due to adverse changes in business volume, margins or both. Such losses can result above all from a serious deterioration of the weather conditions, or changes in the regulatory environment. Changes in electricity prices are considered a market risk.

5. Strategic Risk - It refers to risks coming from macroeconomic, political or social situation in countries where EDPR is present, as well as those coming from a change in the competitive landscape, from technology disruptions, from investment decisions criteria or from reputational issues.

1. Market Risk

1. i) Electricity price risk

EDPR faces limited electricity price risk as it pursues a strategy of being present in countries or regions with long term visibility on revenues. In most countries where EDPR is present, prices are determined through regulated framework mechanisms. In those countries with no regulated tariffs, power purchase agreements are negotiated with different offtakers to eliminate electricity and Green Certificate or REC price risks.

Despite EDPR's strategy of eliminating market price risk, EDPR still has some wind farms with merchant exposure.

In Europe, EDPR operates in countries where the selling price is defined by a feed-in-tariff (Portugal, France and Italy) or in markets where, on top of the electricity price, EDPR receives either a pre-defined regulated premium or a green certificate, whose price is achieved on a regulated market (Spain, Belgium, Poland and Romania). EDPR is also developing investment activity in the UK, where current incentive system is based on green certificates but will change to a feed in tariff.

In countries with a pre-defined regulated premium or a green certificate scheme, EDPR is exposed to electricity price fluctuations. Considering current PPAs in place, EDPR is exposed to electricity price risk in Romania, in Poland and partially in Spain. Additionally, in European countries with a green certificate scheme (Romania and Poland), EDPR is exposed to fluctuation on the price of green certificates.

The US market does not provide a regulated framework system for the electricity price. Nevertheless, renewable generation is incentivized through PTCs (Production Tax Credits) and regional RPS programs that

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2015 22

allow receiving RECs (Renewable Energy Credit) for each MWh of renewable generation. REC prices are very volatile and depend on the regional supply/demand equilibrium in the relevant market.

Most of EDPR's capacity in the US has predefined prices determined by bundled (electricity + REC) long-term contracts with local utilities in line with the Company's policy of avoiding electricity price risk. Despite existing long term contracts, some EDPR's wind farms in the US do not have PPA and are selling merchant with exposure to electricity and REC price risks. Additionally, some wind farms with existing PPAs do not sell their energy where it is produced and are therefore exposed to basis risk (difference in price between the location where energy is produced and that where energy is sold).

In Ontario (Canada), the selling price is defined by a long term feed-in-tariff, thus, there is no electricity price exposure.

In Brazilian operations, the selling price is defined through a public auction which is later translated into a longterm contract. Electricity price exposure is almost null, with little exposure for the production above or below the contracted production.

Under EDPR's global approach to minimize the exposure to market electricity prices, the Company evaluates on a permanent basis if there are any deviations to the pre-defined limits (measured through EBITDA at risk, Net Income at risk and total merchant exposure).

EDPR intends to eliminate Green Certificates and REC price risk with the signing of bundled PPAs with private offtakers, which include the sale of the electricity and the Green Certificate or REC. In some cases, the offtaker may be interested in contracting only the Green Certificate or the REC, thus a GCPA (Green Certificate Purchase Agreement) or a RECPA (REC Purchase Agreement) is signed. During 2015, EDPR signed new long-term PPAs in the US for 517 MW.

In those geographies with remaining merchant exposure, EDPR uses various commodity hedging instruments in order to minimize the exposure to fluctuating market prices. In some cases, due to the lack of liquidity of financial derivatives, it may not be possible to successfully hedge all merchant exposure (i.e. no financial derivatives exist for green certificates nor RECs).

In 2015, EDPR financially hedged most of its remaining merchant exposure in Poland, Romania, Spain and the US. As aforementioned, some US wind farms have exposure to REC price risk and/or basis risk (difference in electricity price between locations). EDPR hedges REC prices through forward sales and basis exposures through financial swaps or FTR (Financial Transmission Rights).

1. ii) Risks related to financial markets

EDPR finances its wind farms through project finance or corporate debt. In both cases, a variable interest rate might imply significant fluctuations in interest payments.

On the other hand, due to EDPR's presence in several countries, revenues denominated in different currencies. Consequently, exchange rate fluctuations may have a material adverse effect on financial results.

1. ii) a) Interest rate risk

Given the policies adopted by EDPR Group, current exposure to variable interest rate is not significant and financial cash flows are substantially independent from the fluctuation of interest rates.

The purpose of interest rate risk management policies is to reduce the exposure of long term debt cash flows to market fluctuations, mainly by contracting long term debt with a fixed rate.

When long term debt is issued with floating rates, EDPR settles derivative financial instruments to swap from floating to fixed rate.
EDPR has a portfolio of interest-rate derivatives with maturities of up to 13 years. Sensitivity analyses of the fair value of financial instruments to interest-rate fluctuations are periodically performed.

Taking into account risk management policy and approved exposure limits, the Finance team submits the financial strategy appropriate to each project/location for the Executive Committee's approval. Global Risk Area supports the Finance team in interest rate hedging decisions.

Repricing calendar of debt is continuously monitored together with interest rates in order to detect good timing for interest rate hedging.

1. ii) b) Exchange rate risk

EDPR has international operations and is exposed to the exchange-rate risk resulting from investments in foreign subsidiaries. Currency exposure in operating wind farms is to U.S. dollar, Romanian leu, Polish zloty, Brazilian real, British pound and Canadian dollar.

EDPR hedges risk against currency fluctuations by financing in the same currency as the revenues of the project. When local financing is not available, EDPR hedges debt cash flows though cross currency interest rate swaps.

EDPR also hedges net investments in foreign currency through cross currency interest rate swaps.

Finally, EDPR contracts foreign exchange forwards to hedge the risk in specific transactions, mainly in payments to suppliers which may be denominated in different currencies.

EDPR's hedging efforts minimize exchange rate volatility, but do not eliminate completely this risk due to high costs associated to hedging FX in certain situations.

1. ii) c) Inflation risk

In some countries, regulated remuneration is linked to inflation.

Exposure to inflation may be naturally hedged with exposure to interest rates and EDPR regularly analyses inflation exposure and its relationship with interest rates to adjust level of interest rate coverage in project finance structures.

1. ii) d) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk of EDPR not meeting its financial obligations. Liquidity risk is mainly related to extreme market movements in electricity prices, interest or exchange rates.

EDPR tracks liquidity risk in the short term (margin calls, etc) and in the long term (financing sources) in order to meet strategic targets previously set (EBITDA, debt ratio and others).

EDPR's strategy to manage liquidity risk is to ensure that its liquidity is sufficient to meet financial liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, and without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to EDPR's reputation.

Different funding sources are used such as Tax Equity investors, multilateral organizations, project finance, corporate debt and asset rotation in order to ensure long-term liquidity for financing planned projects.

1. iii) Commodity price risk (other than electr.)

In projects in which there is a significant number of years between investment decision and start of construction, EDPR may be exposed to the price of the materials used in turbine manufacturing, foundations and interconnection through escalation formulae included in the contracts with suppliers.

In order to manage this risk, EDPR may hedge some of the market exposure in OTC/future commodity markets depending on the potential losses and the cost of the hedge.

2. Counterparty Risk

Counterparty credit risk is the risk that the counterparty to a transaction could default before the final settlement of the transaction's cash flows. An economic loss could occur, either a direct economic loss if the transaction has a positive value at the moment of default (counterparty credit risk) or a replacement cost due to change of the counterparty (counterparty operational risk).

During 2015, EDPR updated its Global Counterparty Risk Policy.

2. i) Counterparty Credit Risk

If the transactions or portfolio of transactions with the counterparty has a positive economic value at the time of default, an economic loss would occur.

To control credit risk at EDPR, thresholds of Expected Loss and Unexpected Loss are established as defined in Basel Standards and re-evaluated monthly. If threshold is surpassed by any counterparty or by the company as a whole, mitigation measures are implemented in order to remain within the pre-established limit.

2. ii) Counterparty Operational Risk

If the transactions or portfolio of transactions with the counterparty does not have a positive economic value at the time of default, it will impact operations. Despite no direct loss at the time of default, the replacement of the counterparty could imply a cost to EDPR due to potential delays, higher contract value with a new counterparty (replacement costs), etc.

Construction and O&M subcontractors are counterparties to which EDPR is exposed from an operational point of view.

To minimize the probability of incurring in potential replacement costs with counterparties, EDPR´s policy concerning counterparty operational risk is managed by an analysis of the technical capacity, competitiveness, credit notation and replacement cost of the counterparty.

3. Operational Risk

3. i) Development Risk

Wind farms are subject to strict regulations at different authority levels (international, national, state, regional and local) relating to the development, construction, grid interconnection and operation of power plants. Among other things, these laws regulate landscape and environmental aspects, building licenses, land use and land securing and access to the grid issues.

While level of exigency might be different depending on the geographies, EDPR acknowledges a trend for legislations to align towards concentrating the most restrictive rules and development risks on the consenting (environmental and urban permissions) and interconnection (connection of the wind farm to the national grid).

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2015

In this context, EDPR's experience gathered in different countries is useful to anticipate and deal with similar situations in other countries.

During the development and design phase, EDPR focuses on the optimization of its projects. By mastering the variables, such as choice of locations, lay-out, etc, the objective is to make our projects more resilient to permitting risks.

Additionally, EDPR mitigates development risk by generating optionality, with development activities in 12 different countries (Spain, Portugal, France, Belgium, Poland, Romania, UK, Italy, US, Canada, Brazil and Mexico) and a portfolio of projects in several stages of maturity. EDPR has a large pipeline of projects that provide a "buffer" to overcome potential delays in the development of prioritized projects, ensuring growth targets and being able to compensate permitting delays in some geographies.

3. ii) Execution Risk

During the construction of the foundations, interconnection and substation of a wind farm, and the installation of the wind turbines, different events (bad weather, accidents, etc) might occur that could imply an over cost or a delay in the commercial operation date of the wind farm:

The delay implies a postponement of cash flows, affecting profitability of the investment.
When a wind farm has a PPA, a delay of the commercial operation date might imply the payment of LDs , with the consequent loss of revenues and the impact on annual financial results.

During the design phase, EDPR engineering teams supervise the engineering and the installation method. Construction is subcontracted to technically capable construction companies.

In both cases, a critical path analysis is performed to assess the reliability of construction and installation plan.

3. iii) Physical assets

Wind farms in construction and in operation are exposed to weather hazards, natural disasters, etc. These risks depend on the location.

All wind farms are insured the physical damage during construction and operation. During operation, any natural disaster, weather hazard or accident will be partially insured to revenues lost due to the event.

3. iv) Information Technology

IT (Information Technologies) risk may occur in the technical network (information network for wind farms operation) or in the office network (information network of corporate services: ERP, accounting…)

EDPR mitigates this risk creating redundancy of servers and control centers of wind farms. Redundancy is created in a different location to anticipate potential natural disasters, etc.

3. v) Legal claims (compliance)

EDPR faces potential claims of third parties and fraud of its employees.

EDPR revises periodically its compliance with all the regulations that affects its activity (environmental, taxes…)

3. vi) Personnel

EDPR identifies two main risk factors regarding personnel: turnover and health and safety.

Turnover: Cost of replacing an employee. A high turnover implies direct costs of replacement and indirect costs of knowledge loss
Health and safety: Likelihood that a person may be harmed or suffers adverse health effects if exposed to a hazard.

EDPR mitigates turnover through constant reassessment and benchmarking of remuneration schemes in different geographies. Additionally, EDPR offers flexibility to its employees to improve work life balance. In 2015, EDPR was elected as "Great Place to Work" in Spain and Poland.

EDPR aims zero-accidents at work by constantly training in health and safety issues and certifying its facilities according to the OHSAS 18001 standard.

3. vii) Processes

Internal processes are subject to potential human errors.

Internal Audit Department regularly reviews internal processes and recommends the establishment of new controls or the improvement in the implementation of existing procedures.

4. Business Risk

4. i) Energy Production Risk

The amount of electricity generated by EDPR's wind farms is dependent on weather conditions, which vary across locations, from season to season and from year to year. Variation on the amount of electricity that is generated affects EDPR's operating results and efficiency.

Not only the total wind production in a specific location is relevant, but also the profile of production. Wind usually blows more at night than at daytime, when energy prices are lower. Generation profile will affect the discount in price of a wind farm versus a baseload generation.

Finally, curtailment of a wind farm will also affect its production. Curtailment occurs when the production of a wind farm is stopped by the TSO (Transmission System Operators) for external reasons to the company. Examples of cases of curtailment are upgrades in transmission lines, high level of renewable generation production with low demand (very exceptional).

EDPR mitigates wind resource volatility and seasonality through geographical diversification of its asset base in different countries and regions.

EDPR acknowledges the correlation between different wind farms in its portfolio that allows for this geographical diversification, which enables EDPR to partially offset wind variations in each region and to keep the total energy generation relatively steady. Currently, EDPR is present in 12 countries: Spain, Portugal, France, Belgium, Poland, Romania, UK (no generation), Italy, US, Canada, Brazil and Mexico (no generation).

In some geographies there is an inverse correlation between wind volume and electricity price, implying a natural hedge.

EDPR has analysed in detail the potential use of financial products to hedge wind risk, and EDPR might use this product to mitigate risk in specific cases.

Profile risk and curtailment risk are managed ex-ante. For every new investment, EDPR factors the effect that expected generation profile and curtailment will have on the output of the wind farm. Generation profile and curtailment of EDPR's wind farms are constantly monitored by Risk department to detect potential future changes.

4. ii) Equipment Performance Risk

Output from wind farms and solar plants depends upon the operating availability of the turbines and solar panels and the operating performance of the equipment, mainly the components of wind turbines and transformers.

EDPR mitigates this risk by using a mix of turbine suppliers which minimizes technological risk, avoiding exposure to a unique manufacturer.

EDPR also engages wind turbine suppliers through medium-term full-scope maintenance agreements to ensure alignment in minimizing technology risk.

Finally, EDPR has created an O&M program with adequate preventive and scheduled maintenance program. EDPR externalized non-core technical O&M activities of its wind farms, while primary and value added activities continue controlled by EDPR.

4. iii) Regulatory Risk (renewables)

The development and profitability of renewable energy projects are subject to policies and regulatory frameworks. The jurisdictions in which EDPR operates provide different types of incentives supporting energy generated from renewable sources.

Remuneration schemes have become less competitive in some countries due to the financial crisis and it cannot be guaranteed that current support will be maintained in all EDPR's geographies or that future renewable energy projects will benefit from current support measures. Regulation promoting green energy has been revised or is under revision in some of the countries where EDPR is present.

In the US, renewable generation from wind will be incentivized through Production Tax Credits (PTC) at a Federal level for all projects beginning of construction up to 2019. Level of incentives will be progressively fading out. Additionally, wind production is also incentivized through State RPS Programs that allow receiving RECs (Renewable Energy Credit) for each MWh of renewable generation.

EDPR is managing its exposure to regulatory risks through diversification, by being present in several countries and through participation as an active member in several wind associations.

Regulatory Risk in each of EDPR's countries is monitored continuously, considering current regulation, potential drafts of new laws, feedback from associations, evolution of installed renewable generation capacity and other inputs. EDPR has developed an internal quantitative assessment of Regulatory Risk that serves as an indicator for changes in supporting schemes. This measure is updated annually in all EDPR's geographies.

Regulatory Risk is also considered ex-ante, at the moment of the investment, through sensitivity analyses that are performed to evaluate its impact in project profitability under different scenarios.

4. iv) Wind Turbine Price Risk

Price of wind turbines is affected, not only by market fluctuations of the materials used in the turbines, but also by the demand of wind turbines.

For every new project, EDPR secures the demand risk that might increase price of the turbines.

4. v) Wind Turbine Supply Risk

The demand for new wind farms may offset the offer of turbines by WTG manufacturers. Currently, the local component requirement in some geographies (Ex: Brazil) creates this shortfall situation.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2015 26

EDPR faces limited risk to the availability and price increase of WTG´s due to existing framework agreements with major global wind turbines suppliers. The Company uses a large mix of turbines suppliers in order to diversify wind turbine supply risk.

For geographies with specific requirements of local component, EDPR does not engage in a project before securing the supply of wind turbines.

5. Strategic Risk

5. i) Country Risk

Country Risk is defined as the probability of occurrence of a financial loss in a given country due to macroeconomics, political or natural disasters. EDPR has defined a Country Risk Policy that assesses country risk through an internal scoring based on publicly available data. This internal scoring is compared with external assessments from renowned parties. Each risk factor affecting country risk is evaluated independently to decide on potential mitigating actions:

Macroeconomic Risk: Risks from the country´s economic evolution, affecting revenue or cost time of the investments
Political Risk: All possible damaging actions or factors for the business of foreign firms that emanate from any political authority, governmental body or social group in the host country
Natural disaster risk: Natural phenomena (seismicity, weather) that may impact negatively in the business conditions.

Before approving a project in a new geography, EDPR analyses the risk of the new country and compares it to our existing portfolio. Mitigation measures may be decided when this risk is above a certain threshold.

During 2015, EDPR updated its Global Country Risk Policy.

5. ii) Competitive landscape

In the renewable business, size can be an advantage or disadvantage in specific situations. For example, in development of wind farms, small and dynamic companies are usually more competitive than larger companies. On the other hand, when participating in tender processes for offshore wind farms, the size of the investment benefits larger companies.

Additionally, the consequences of a change in the competitive landscape due to mergers and acquisitions may also be a risk for EDPR.

To mitigate the risks, at EDPR there is a clear knowledge of our competitive advantages and try to leverage on them. When EDPR has no advantage versus its competitors, alternatives are considered in order to become competitive. For example, for offshore wind farms, EDPR has partnered with large companies with previous experience in large electricity generation projects or offshore construction, in order to benefit from their knowledge and become a more competitive consortium.

5. iii) Technology disruptions

Most renewables are relatively recent technologies, which are continuously evolving and improving efficiency. As such, some initially expensive technologies can become competitive in a relatively short time.

EDPR focuses in onshore wind technology, which in most geographies is the most competitive renewable technology at the moment. However, EDPR is progressively investing in other technologies that are starting to be competitive and may become more efficient in the future, like PV solar and wind offshore.

5. iv) Investment decisions criteria

Not all projects have the same risk profile. This will depend on merchant exposure of remuneration, construction risk, etc.

In order to take proper business decisions, EDPR uses Risk Adjusted Metrics for investment decisions, which take into consideration the different risks inherent of each project.

5. v) Reputational risk

Companies are exposed to public opinion and today's social networks are a rapid mean to express particular opinions. A bad reputation could eventually harm financial results of a company in the short and in the long term.

Sustainability makes part of the essence of EDPR. EDPR is not only committed in building a better future for our children, but also in doing it well, in an ethical and sustainable manner, consequently limiting reputational risk.

54. RISK FUNCTIONS AND FRAMEWORK

Risk Management at EDPR is supported by three distinct organizational functions, each one with a different role: Strategy (Risk Profiler), Management (Risk Manager) and Controlling (Risk Controller).

Risk functions	Description
Strategy – General risk strategy & policy	x Global Risk Department provides analytically supported proposals to general strategic issues x Responsible for proposing guidelines and policies for risk management within the company
Management – Risk management & risk business decisions	x Implement defined policies by Global Risk x Responsible for day-to-day operational decisions and for related risk taking and risk mitigating positions
Controlling – Risk control	x Responsible for follow-up of the results of risk taking decisions and for contrasting alignment of operations with general risk policy approved by the board

The Risk Committee is the forum where the different Risk Functions discuss the policies to be implemented and control the risk exposure of the company. EDPR's Risk Committee integrates and coordinates all Risk Functions and assures the link between corporate's risk appetite and defined strategy and the operations of the company.

EDPR created three distinct meetings of the Risk Committee in order to separate discussions on execution of mitigation strategies from those on the definition of new policies:

Restricted Risk Committee: Held every month, it is mainly focused on development risk and market risk from electricity price. It is the forum to discuss the execution of mitigation strategies to reduce merchant exposure. Its purpose is also to control the limits of defined risk policies, with regards to counterparty risk, operational risk and country risk.
Financial Risk Committee: Held every quarter, it is held to review main financial risks and discuss the execution of mitigation strategies. Exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and credit risk from financial counterparties are most relevant risk reviewed in this committee.
Risk Committee: Held every quarter, it is the forum where new strategic analyses are discussed and new policies are proposed for approval to the Executive Committee. Additionally, EDPR´s overall risk position is reviewed, together with EBITDA@Risk and Net Income@Risk.

55. DETAILS ON THE INTERNAL CONTROL AND RISK MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS IMPLEMENTED IN THE COMPANY REGARDING THE PROCEDURE FOR REPORTING FINANCIAL INFORMATION

With the purpose of not only controlling risks, but also managing them ex-ante, EDPR has created Global Risk policies that are enforceable at a Global Level. These policies are proposed and discussed in the Risk Committee and approved by the Executive Committee.

During 2015, EDPR defined or reviewed four Global Risk Policies, which are already implemented:

Energy Price Hedging Policy
Counterparty Credit Risk Policy
Operational Risk Policy
Country Risk Policy

Compliance with Global Risk policies is verified every month in the Restricted Risk Committee.

INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

EDPR has an Internal Control System over Financial Reporting (SCIRF) updated and monitored in line with international standards of Internal Control.

This system covers the main aspects of the COSO framework: maintaining a control environment for the preparation of qualified financial information, assessment of the risks of financial reporting, existence of control activities to mitigate risks of error, information and communication and evaluation mechanisms.

SCOPE REVISION AND UPDATE

The SCIRF Manual includes the annual update of the scope that aims to identify companies, areas and processes that must be included in the scope of SCIRF, according to criteria of materiality and risk, including the risk of error or fraud.

The risk analysis included in the scoping process for SCIRF, includes both the different types of risk (operational, economic, financial, technological or legal) and the control objectives of financial reporting (existence and occurrence, completeness, measurement, presentation, disclosure and comparability, and rights and obligations in terms of their potential impact on the financial statements).

The results of the updated scope with the methodology outlined are communicated at all levels of the organization involved in the SCIRF and supervised by the Audit and Control Committee.

CONTROL ACTIVITIES

In documented SCIRF processes and controls, information capture mechanisms are established (including identification of the scope of consolidation) and steps and checks that are carried out for the preparation of the financial information that will be part of consolidated financial statements are specified.

The procedures for review and approval of financial information are provided by the areas of Planning and Control, and Administration, Consolidation and Tax. Financial information is supervised in the scope of its competences by the Audit Control Committee, prior to the formulation of the accounts by the Board of Directors.

The SCIRF includes control activities related to these processes, embodied in Entity Level Controls, Process Controls and General Computer Controls. These processes include review and approval activities of the financial information which are described in the processes of elaboration of individual accounts, preparation of consolidated accounts and processing of consolidated financial statements.

EDPR has descriptions of Competency Profiles for the Positions to be carried out in the exercise of the main features of each position that includes a description of the main responsibilities. These include the descriptions of the key positions of those involved in the preparation of financial information. These descriptions include responsibilities in the preparation of financial information and compliance with internal control procedures.

The documentation of processes and associated controls designed include among others, the completion of closure activities by completing monthly closing checklists by entity, setting time limits for the closures, the identification of the relevance of the operations in order to be reviewed at the appropriate level, conducting analytical reviews of financial information, the existence of limitations in systems to prevent erroneous records or by unauthorized persons, analysis of deviations from the budget, the analysis in Executive Committees of relevant and significant facts that could cause a significant impact on the accounts, or the allocation of responsibilities for calculating amounts to be provisioned for them to be carried out by authorized personnel with the right skills.

In addition to the mentioned processes, major transactional processes resulting from the scope are documented. The description of the activities and controls are designed with the aim of ensuring the registration, evaluation, appropriate presentation and disclosure of transactions in financial reporting.

Control activities of EDPR's SCIRF also include those relating to systems and information technology (Computer General Controls) following an international reference, the COBIT framework (Control Objectives for Information and related Technologies). The importance of this area is that information systems are the tools with which financial information is prepared, and is therefore relevant for transactions conducted with them.

These control activities include those related to access control to applications and systems, segregation of duties, management of corrective and preventive maintenance, new projects implementation, administration and management of the systems, facilities and operations (back-ups, security incidents) and their proper monitoring and planning. These activities are developed taking into account the requirements of control and supervision.

Among the activities of SCIRF's scope update, there is a periodic analysis of the existence of service suppliers that perform relevant activities in relation to the processes of preparing financial information.

SCIRF SUPERVISION

The Audit and Control Committee supervises the SCIRF in the scope of the exercise of their activities through the monitoring and supervision of the developed mechanisms for SCIRF's implementation, evolution and evaluation, and the results of the scope analysis and the extent of the situation in terms of coverage. To this extent, the Internal Audit Department assists the Audit and Control Committee.

EDPR has an Internal Audit Department under the Chairman of the Executive Committee. The Audit and Control Committee supervise the Internal Audit Department as establishes the Basic Internal Audit Act.

The main functions of the Internal Audit Department are set out in the Basic Internal Audit Act, which includes, among others, the evaluation activities of internal control systems, including the internal control system over financial reporting.

The annual work plans of the Audit Department obtain the opinion of the Audit and Control Committee. The Internal Audit Department reports to the Audit and Control Committee about the status and the performance of the audit works.

Among these activities, Internal Audit supports the Audit and Control Committee in supervising the implementation and maintenance of SCIRF and reports the results of the evaluation, improvement actions identified and their evolution.

The entity has action plans for improvement actions identified in SCIRF's assessment processes, which are accompanied and supervised by the Internal Audit Department, considering their impact on the financial information.

Also in the year 2015, as in previous years, a process of self-certification was made by the heads of the various process owners regarding proper documentation update on SCIRF controls and processes in their area of responsibility and the implementation of controls with corresponding evidence.

SCIRF EVALUATION

Besides the monitoring and evaluation activities described in the preceding paragraph, in case the auditors identified internal control weaknesses in the scope of their financial audit work, they are expected to communicate these circumstances to the Audit and Control Committee, which regularly monitors the results of the audit work.

Additionally, in 2015 the EDPR Group decided to have its SCIRF audited by the external auditor. As a result of its evaluation, the external auditor issued a report with a favourable opinion on the SCIRF of the EDPR Group, according to ISAE 3000 (International Standard on Assurance Engagements 3000).

IV. INVESTOR ASSISTANCE

56. INVESTOR RELATIONS DEPARTMENT

EDPR seeks to provide to shareholders, investors, and stakeholders all the relevant information about the Company and its business environment, on a regular basis. The promotion of transparent, consistent, rigorous, easily accessible, and high̻quality information is of fundamental importance to an accurate perception of the Company's strategy, financial situation, accounts, assets, prospects, risks, and significant events.

EDPR, therefore, looks to provide investors with accurate information that can support them in making informed, clear and concrete investment decisions.

The Investor Relations Department was created to ensure a direct and permanent contact with all market related agents and stakeholders, to guarantee effective communication, equality between shareholders and to prevent imbalances in the information access.

The EDPR Investor Relations Department (IR) is the intermediary between EDPR and its actual and potential shareholders, the financial analysts that follow Company's activity, all investors and other members of the financial community. The main purpose of the department is to guarantee the principle of equality among shareholders, by preventing asymmetries in access the information and reducing the gap between market perception and Company's strategy and intrinsic value. The department responsibility comprises developing and implementing EDPR's communication strategy and preserving an appropriate institutional and informative relationship with the financial market, the stock exchange at which EDPR shares trade and the regulatory and supervisory entities (CMVM – Comissão de Mercado de Valores Mobiliários – in Portugal and CNMV – Comisíon Nacional del Mercado de Valores – in Spain).

EDPR is clearly aware of the importance of detailed and transparent information, delivered on-time to the market. Consequently, EDPR publishes Company's price sensitive information before the opening or following the closing of the NYSE Euronext Lisbon stock exchange through CMVM's information system and, simultaneously, make that same information available on the website investors' section and through the IR department's mailing list. In 2015, EDPR made 49 press releases, including quarterly, semi-annual and annual results presentations and handouts elaborated by the IR Department. In addition, the IR Department also elaborates key data files and interim presentations which are available on the website investors' section.

On each earnings announcement, EDPR promotes a conference call and webcast, at which the Company's management updates the market on EDPR's activities. On each of these events, shareholders, investors and analysts had the opportunity to directly submit their questions and to discuss EDPR's results as well as the Company's outlook and strategy.

EDPR IR Department is coordinated by Rui Antunes and is located at the Company's head offices in Madrid, Spain. The department structure and contacts are as follows:

D. REMUNERATION

I. POWER TO ESTABLISH

66. COMPETENCES TO DETERMINE THE REMUNERATION OF THE CORPORATE BODIES

The Nominations and Remunerations committee is a permanent body belonging to the Board of Directors with an informative and advisory nature. Its recommendations and reports are non-binding.

As such, the Nominations and Remunerations Committee has no executive functions. The main functions of the Nominations and Remunerations Committee are to assist and inform the Board of Directors regarding the nominations (including by co-option), re-elections, dismissals, and the remuneration of the Board Members and its position about the composition of the Board of Directors, as well as the nominations, remuneration, and dismissal of senior management personnel.

The Nominations and Remunerations Committee is the body responsible for proposing to the Board of Directors the determination of the remuneration of the Executive management of the Company; the Declaration on Remuneration Policy; the evaluation and compliance of the KPI's (Key Performance Indicators); the annual and multi annual variable remuneration, if applicable, and also proposes the remuneration of the Non-Executive Directors and members of the Board Committees.

The Board of Directors is responsible for the approval of the above mentioned proposals except concerning the Declaration on the Remuneration Policy.

The Declaration on the Remuneration Policy is submitted by the Board of Directors to the approval of the General Shareholders' Meeting as an independent proposal. According to the Company's Articles of Association the Board of Directors remuneration is subject to a maximum value that can only be modified by a Shareholders agreement.

II. REMUNERATION COMMITTEE

67. NOMINATIONS AND REMUNERATIONS COMMITTEE

The Composition of the Nominations and Remunerations Committee is reflected on topic 29 of the report.

The Nominations and Remunerations Committee did not hire any external consultancy services corresponding to 2015.

68. KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE REGARDING REMUNERATION POLICY

The Chairman of the Nominations and Remunerations Committee has knowledge and experience regarding Remuneration Policy as member of the Remuneration Committee of a Portuguese listed company as mentioned on his biography available in the Annex of this report, together with the biographies of all other members of the Nominations and Remunerations Committee.

III. REMUNERATION STRUCTURE

69. REMUNERATION POLICY

Pursuant to Article 26 of the Company's Articles of Association the Directors shall be entitled to a remuneration which consists of (i) a fixed amount to be determined annually by the General Shareholders' Meeting for the whole Board of Directors and of (ii) attendance fees regarding the Board Meetings.

The above mentioned article also establishes the possibility of the Directors being remunerated with Company shares, share options, or other securities granting the right to obtain shares or by means of share-indexed remuneration systems. In any case, the system chosen must be approved by the General Shareholders' Meeting and comply with current legal provisions.

The total amount of the remunerations that the Company will pay to its Directors under the terms provided in the previous paragraphs shall not exceed the amount determined for that effect by the General Shareholders' Meeting. The maximum remuneration approved by the General Shareholders' Meeting, for all the members of the Board of Directors was € 2,500,000 per year.

Pursuant to Article 26.4 of the Company's Articles of Association, the rights and duties of any kind derived from the condition of Board Member shall be compatible with any other rights and obligations either fixed or variable that could correspond to the Board Members as a consequence of other employment or professional engagements, if any, carried out in the Company. Variable remuneration resulting from said contracts or from

any other relationship, including being a Board Member, will be limited to a maximum annual amount to be established by the General Shareholders' Meeting.

The maximum annual remuneration approved by the General Shareholders Meeting for the variable remuneration for all the executive members of the Board of Directors was € 1,000,000 per year.

EDPR, in line with EDP Group corporate governance practice, has signed an Executive Management Services Agreement with EDP, under which the Company bears the cost for such services to some of the members of the Board of Directors to the extent their services are devoted to EDPR.

The non-executive Directors only receive a fixed remuneration, which is calculated on the basis of their work exclusively as Directors or with their membership on the Nominations and Remunerations Committee, Related Party Transactions Committee, and the Audit and Control Committee. Those members who are seated in two different Committees don't accumulate two remunerations. In these cases, the remuneration to be received is the one that corresponds to the highest value.

EDPR has not incorporated any share remuneration or share purchase options plans as components of the remuneration of its Directors.

No Director has entered into any contract with the Company or third parties that have the effect of mitigating the risk inherent in the variability of the remuneration established by the Company.

In EDPR there aren't any payments for the dismissal or termination of Director's duties.

The remuneration policy for the Directors of the Company is submitted each year to the General Shareholders' Meeting for approval.

70. REMUNERATION STRUCTURE

The remuneration policy applicable for 2014-2016 as proposed by the Nominations and Remuneration Committee and approved by the General Shareholders' Meeting on April 8th, 2014 (the Remuneration Policy), defines a structure with a fixed remuneration for all members of the Board of Directors and a variable remuneration, with an annual component and a multi-annual component for the members of the Executive Committee.

The Remuneration Policy, including the minor amendments approved by the General Shareholders' Meeting held on April 9th, 2015, remained unaltered during 2015. On the topic below can be found a reminder of the KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) stated in the Remuneration Policy for variable annual and multi-annual variable components.

71. VARIABLE REMUNERATION

Variable annual and multi-annual remuneration applies to the members of the Executive Committee.

The variable annual remuneration may range from 0 to 68% of the annual fixed remuneration and the multiannual remuneration from 0 to 120% of the annual fixed remuneration.

For Executive Committee Members that are also Officers, there will be a qualitative evaluation of the CEO about the annual performance. This evaluation will have a weight of 20% for the final calculation in the annual variable remuneration and 32% in the multi-annual variable remuneration. The other 80% will be calculated based on the weights indicated in the next paragraph for the annual variable remuneration and 68% for the multi- annual variable.

The key performance indicators (KPIs) used to determine the amounts of the annual and multi-annual variable remuneration regarding to each year of the term are aligned with the strategic grounds of the Company: growth, risk control and efficiency. These are the same for all members of the Executive Committee, although with specific targets for the platforms in the case of COO's. For the years 2015 and 2016 and in order to align the indicators with the company objectives a new KPI has been included "Asset Rotation & Tax Equity". The indicators are as follows:

Target Group	Key Performance Indicator	Weight
	Total Shareholder Return vs. Peers & PSI 20	15%
Growth	Incremental MW (EBITDA + Net Equity) Asset Rotation & Tax Equity	10% 7.5%
Risk – Return	ROIC Cash % EBITDA Net Income	8% 12% 12%

Target Group	Key Performance Indicator	Weight
	Technical Availability	6%
Efficiency	Opex / MW	6%
	Capex / MW	6%
	Sustainability	7.5%
Other	Employee satisfaction	5%
	Appreciation of the Remuneration Committee	5%

According to the Remuneration Policy approved by the General Shareholders' Meeting, the maximum variable remuneration (annual and multi-annual) is applicable if all the above mentioned KPI's were achieved and the performance evaluation is equal or above 110%.

72. MULTI-ANNUAL REMUNERATION

The Remuneration Policy incorporates the deferral for a period of three years of the multi-annual variable remuneration, being the relevant payment conditioned to the lack of any willful illicit action, known after the appraisal and which endangers the sustainable performance of the company, in line with CMVM corporate governance practices.

73. VARIABLE REMUNERATION BASED ON SHARES

EDPR has not allocated variable remuneration on shares and does not maintain Company shares that the Executive Directors have had access to.

74. VARIABLE REMUNERATION BASED ON OPTIONS

EDPR has not allocated variable remuneration on options.

75. ANNUAL BONUS AND NON-MONETARY BENEFITS

The key factors and grounds for any annual bonus scheme are described on topics 71 and 72. Additionally, the Officers, with the exception of the CEO received the following non-monetary benefits: company car and Health Insurance. In 2015, the non-monetary benefits amounted to €123.355.

The Directors do not receive any relevant non-monetary benefits as remuneration.

76. RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN

The retirement savings plan for the members of the Executive Committee that are also Officers, acts as an effective retirement supplement with a range between 3% to 6% of their annual salary. The percentage is defined according with the retirement savings plan applicable in their home country. The retirement savings plan has been approved by the General Shareholders' Meeting on April 9th, 2015 (the Remuneration Policy included the retirement plan).

01. THE BUSINESS OPERATIONS OF THE EDP RENOVÁVEIS GROUP

EDP Renováveis, Sociedad Anónima (hereinafter referred to as "EDP Renováveis" or "EDPR") was incorporated on 4 December 2007. Its main corporate objective is to engage in activities related to the electricity sector, namely the planning, construction, operation and maintenance of electricity generating power stations, using renewable energy sources, mainly wind. The registered offices of the company are located in Oviedo, Spain. On 18 March 2008 EDP Renováveis was converted into a company incorporated by shares (Sociedad Anónima).

As at 31 December 2014 the share capital was held 62.02% by EDP S.A. - Sucursal en España ("EDP Branch"), 15.51% by Hidroeléctrica del Cantábrico, S.A. ("HC") and 22.47% of the share capital was free-floated in the NYSE Euronext Lisbon. On December 18th 2015, EDP S.A. - Sucursal en España acquired to Hidroeléctrica del Cantábrico, S.A., its block of shares, so that, as at December 2015 EDP Energias de Portugal, S.A holds directly, through its Spanish branch, a qualified shareholding of 77.5% of the share capital and voting rights of EDPR. As a result of this acquisition, HC no longer holds any shareholding in EDPR (see note 27).

As at 31 December 2015, EDP Renováveis holds a 100% stake in the share capital of the following companies: EDP Renewables Europe, S.L. (EDPR EU), EDP Renewables North America, L.L.C. (EDPR NA), EDP Renewables Canada, Ltd. (EDPR Canada), South África Wind & Solar Power, S.L.U., EDP Renováveis Servicios Financieros, S.L. and EDP Renováveis Brasil, S.A. (EDPR BR).

The Company belongs to the EDP Group, of which the parent company is EDP Energias de Portugal, S.A., with registered offices at Avenida 24 de Julho, 12, Lisbon.

In December 2011, China Three Gorges Corporation (CTG) sign an agreement to acquire 780,633,782 ordinary shares in EDP from Parpública - Participações Públicas SGPS, S.A., representing 21.35% of the share capital and voting rights of EDP Energias de Portugal S.A., a majority shareholder of the Company. This operation was concluded in May 2012.

The terms of the agreements through which CTG became a shareholder of the EDP Group stipulate that CTG would make minority investments totalling 2,000 million of Euros in operating and ready-to-build renewable energy generation projects (including co-funding capex).

Within the agreement mentioned above, in June 2013, EDPR completed the sale of 49% equity shareholding in EDPR Portugal to CTG through CITIC CWEI Renewables S.C.A. and, on May 2015, EDPR closed the sale of 49% of the following EDPR Brasil subsidiaries to CTG through CWEI Brasil participaçoes LTDA. (see note 5): Elebrás Projetos S.A, Central Nacional de Energia Eólica S.A, Central Eólica Baixa do Feijão I S.A, Central Eólica Baixa do Feijão II S.A, Central Eólica Baixa do Feijão III S.A, Central Eólica Baixa do Feijão IV S.A, Central Eólica Jau S.A. and Central Eólica Aventura S.A.

In this context, EDPR Group has entered into new agreements with CTG during 2015, which are still subject to regulatory and third party approvals and other precedent conditions, so that no accounting impacts are booked in 2015 in this respect (see note 40).

EDPR EU operates through its subsidiaries located in Portugal, Spain, France, Belgium, Poland, Romania, Italy and United Kingdom. EDPR EU's main subsidiaries are: EDP Renováveis Portugal, S.A. (wind farms in Portugal), EDP Renovables España, S.L.

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK FOR THE ACTIVITIES IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

The United States federal government and various state governments have implemented policies designed to promote the growth of renewable energy, including wind power. The primary federal renewable energy incentive program is the Production Tax Credit (PTC), which was established by the U.S. Congress as part of 1992 EPACT. Additionally, many states have passed legislation, principally in the form of renewable portfolio standards ("RPS"), which require utilities to purchase a certain percentage of their energy supply from renewable sources, similar to the Renewable Energy Directive in the EU.

American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 includes a number of energy related tax and policy provisions to benefit the development of wind energy generation, namely (i) a three year extension of the PTC until 2012 and (ii) an option to elect a 30% Investment Tax Credit ("ITC") that could replace the PTC through the duration of the extension. This ITC allows the companies to receive 30% of the cash invested in projects placed in service or with the beginning of construction in 2009 and 2010. In December 2010, the Tax Relief, Unemployment, Insurance and Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010 was approved and includes an one year extension of the ITC, which allow the companies to receive 30% of the cash invested in projects with beginning of construction until December 2011 as long as placed in service until December 2012.

On 1 January 2013, the US Congress approved "The American Taxpayer Relief Act" that includes an extension of the Production Tax Credit (PTC) for wind energy, including the possibility of a 30% Investment Tax Credit (ITC) instead of the PTC. Congress set 31 December 2013 as the new expiration date of these benefits and changed the qualification criteria (projects will only qualify as long as they are under construction by year-end 2013). The legislation also includes a depreciation bonus on new equipment placed in service which allows the depreciation of a higher percentage of the cost of the project (less 50% of the Investment Tax Credit) in the year that it is placed in service. This bonus depreciation was 100% in 2011 and 50% for 2012.

On 16 December 2014, the U.S. Congress approved the "Tax Increase Prevention Act of 2014" that included an extension of the PTC for wind, including the possibility of a 30% Investment Tax Credit instead of the PTC. Congress set a new expiration date of 31 December 2014 and kept the qualification criteria (projects can qualify as long as they are under construction by year-end 2014).

On 15 December 2015, the US Congress approved the "Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2016" that included an extension of the PTC for wind, as well as the possibility of a 30% Investment Tax Credit instead of the PTC. Developers now have until the end of 2016 to start construction of new wind farms to qualify for 10 years of production tax credits at the full level. Congress introduced a phase out for projects that start construction after 2016 and before 2020. These projects will still qualify for production tax credits, but at reduced levels. The levels are 80% for projects starting construction in 2017, 60% in 2018, and 40% in 2019. Developers of projects that start construction before 2020 may elect to claim 30% investment tax credits instead of production tax credits, subject to a similar phase out. The phase out reduces the value of the 30% investment tax credit to 24% in 2017, 18% in 2018, and 12% in 2019. Neither production tax credits nor investment tax credits are allowed for wind projects that start construction in 2020 or later.

In addition, the "Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2016" extended the Investment Tax Credit (ITC) for solar projects. Solar projects that are under construction by the end of 2019 will now qualify for the 30% ITC. The credit is reduced to 26% for projects starting construction in 2020 and to 22% for projects starting construction in 2021. The credit drops to a permanent 10% level for projects that begin construction in 2022 or later or that begin construction before 2022, but are placed in service in 2024 or later. Projects must be placed in service by the end of 2023 to qualify for a credit above 10%.

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK FOR THE ACTIVITIES IN SPAIN

On December 2012, following Law 15/2012 of 27 December, the Spanish Government approved a 7% tax on electricity generation, as well as new taxes on nuclear and large-scale hydropower, plus a new carbon levy. These taxes have been applied since 2013.

On 4 February 2013, the Spanish Government published the Royal Decree-Law 2/2013 "on urgent measures in the electrical system and financial sector" that included a set of regulatory modifications applicable to the Spanish electricity sector and affecting wind energy assets. The main measures of RD-L 2/2013 were:

x New index to annually update all regulated activities in the electricity sector. This new index is the annual inflation ("IPC") excluding some components of it, such as tax variations, non-manufactured products and energy products
x Sole formula to remunerate special regime facilities: the remuneration through the price market + premium is eliminated. Therefore, the remuneration of all the special regime facilities had to be done under the regulated tariff formula, unless the titleholder of the facility decided to perceive only the market price, but without a premium
x Other consequences for facilities that had previously chosen the option "market + premium". Those facilities that between January 1st, 2013 and February 2nd, 2013 (date of entry into force of the Royal Decree-Law) had sold their energy according to that system, perceived an amount equivalent as if they had chosen the regulated tariff option.

On 12 July 2013 the Spanish Council of Ministers approved a comprehensive reform of the Spanish energy sector aimed to end with the Spanish tariff deficit. The energy reform has been afterwards implemented by means of a new Energy Sector Act, a Decree-Law, eight Royal Decrees and three Ministerial Orders.

As a part or this Energy Reform, the RD-L 9/2013 was passed in July 2013. According to it, renewable energy facilities would be subject to a new framework, by which they would be remunerated by the market price plus a payment per installed MW allowing that the return on investment would be equivalent to the Spanish Government 10-year bonds yield plus a spread of 300 bps (being based on the asset's regulatory life). The RD-L also suppresses the renewables remuneration for reactive power (2€/MWh).

On 26 December 2013, the Spanish government published a new regulation that will govern the electricity sector (Law 24/2013) replacing the existing from 1997 (Law 54/1997).

The law refers to the need to finish with the sector's structural deficit that had been accumulated during the last decade, as the motivation to undertake the reform. Two years after, it seems that this target is to be achieved. Indeed, in November 2015, the CNMC (National commission of markets and competition) published the final balance of the Spanish electricity system for the year 2014 delivering a surplus of +550.3 M€, being the first surplus of the Spanish electricity system after 9 consecutive years of deficit.

The Spanish Government published in 20 June 2014, the Order IET/1045/2014, which included the parameters to remunerate the renewable energy assets, under the new remuneration framework that was approved by the Decree-Law 413/2014 of June 2014. The final legislation had no significant changes to the previous draft versions. In the case of wind farms onshore, the DL 413/2014 confirmed that the wind farms in operation in 2003 (and before) would not receive any further incentive, while the incentive for the rest of the wind farms would be calculated in order to reach of 7.398% return before taxes.

In October 2015 the Government approved the Royal Decree 947/2015 and a Ministerial Order aimed at allowing the installation of new renewable capacity through competitive tenders. On December 3rd 2015, the conditions for the upcoming auction were published.

Also in October 2015, the Government approved the "National Energy Infrastructure Plan 2015-20", envisaging an increase in wind capacity of 6.5 GW and the "Plan de Relazamiento de la Industria Eólica", consisting in 15 specific measures focused in relaunching the wind manufacturing sector. Some of the measures are focused to spur the competitiveness of the Spanish wind manufacturer sector, while others are aimed at increasing turbine exports and others at boosting R+D.

On January 14th 2016 the first auction of RES capacity was held. The auction was designed to provide a similar remuneration scheme that the one that applies to current installations (RD 413/2014). Following this framework, tender participants were requested to bid discounts on the "initial investment" (CAPEX) parameter which would then, by being plugged in the formula set by RD 413/2014 determine the "Rinv" (investment premium) that would eventually be awarded.

Developers were bidding to build 500 MW of wind energy and 200 MW of biomass plants.

The Government has announced that more auctions will be organised, possibly in 2016, to contract the capacity that Spain needs to comply with its 2020 targets.

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK FOR THE ACTIVITIES IN PORTUGAL

The Portuguese legal provisions applicable to the generation of electrical power based on renewable resources are currently established by Decree-Law 189/88 dated 27 May, as amended by Decree-Law 168/99 dated 18 May, Decree-Law 312/2001 dated 10 December , and Decree-Law 339-C/2001 dated 29 December. Also relevant is Decree-Law 33-A/2005, dated 16 February 2005 ("DL 33-A/2005"), which establishes the remuneration formula applicable to energy produced by renewable sources.

The Portuguese Government published on 28 February 2013, the Decree Law 35/2013, that maintains the legal stability of the current contracts (following Decree-Law 33-A/2005) and protects the value of the investments made by the wind energy producers. However, this Decree Law opened the possibility for voluntary changes of the existing feed-in tariff. the Government proposed four alternative tariff schemes to be elected by each of the wind developers, that include the following: i) alternative cap and floor selling prices; ii) alternative durations to the new scheme beyond the initial 15 years of the current contracts; and consequently iii) alternative levels of investment (on a per MW basis) to adhere a new scheme. EDPR and ENEOP chose a 7 year extension of the tariff defined as the average market price of previous twelve months, with a floor of 74€/MWh and a cap of 98€/MWh values updated with inflation from 2021 onwards, in exchange for a payment of 5.800€/MW from 2013 to 2020.

The Environment and Energy Ministry published, on 24 July 2014, the Decree Law 94/2014 that allows the increase of installed capacity of wind farms up to 20%. The additional production generated from the capacity increase will have a fixed remuneration of 60 Euros/MWh, whilst the remaining production is remunerated at the previous tariff.

On 7 April 2015 the Administrative Order 102/2015 was published, which establishes the procedures for the placement of additional energy and for the repowering authorisation of wind farms previously defined by Decree-Law 94/2014 of 24 June.

The main measures introduced by this legislation are: (i) the energy produced by repowering wind farms (increasing the number of wind turbines in existing wind farms) is remunerated at a fixed rate of 60€/MW; (ii) the energy corresponding to the difference between installed capacity and the injected energy in the network is remunerated at 60€/MW; and (iii) Recognition of the wind farms repowering as an independent generator.

On April 23 European Commission approved Portugal's plans to support 50 MW of wave, tidal and floating offshore wind turbine demonstration projects (25 MW windfloat project).

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK FOR THE ACTIVITIES IN FRANCE

The electricity industry in France is governed primarily by Act 2000-108 (amended by Acts 2004-803 and 2006- 1537) ("Act 2000'), passed on 10 February 2000, which regulates the modernization and development of public energy services and is the general legislative framework for the operation of wind facilities in France.

Act 2000 allows wind operators to enter into long-term agreements for the purchase and sale of their energy with Electricité de France (EDF), the national incumbent. The tariffs were initially set by Order of July 10, 2006 which was repealed in August 2008 due to formal defect in its approval, and then republished without any amendment in December 2008. The tariffs are the following: i) during the first ten years of the EDF Agreement, EDF pays a fixed annual tariff, which is €82 per MWh for applications made during 2006 (tariff is amended annually based, in part, on an inflation-related index); ii) During years 11 to 15 of the EDF Agreement, the tariff is based on the annual average percentage of energy produced during the wind facility's first ten years (these tariffs are also amended annually, based, in part, on an inflation-related index); iii) Beginning in the year 16, there is no specific support and wind energy generators will sell their electricity at the market, thus receiving market price.

On March 2012, the legality of the 2008 feed-in tariff ministerial order for wind farm projects was questioned before the French Council of State (Conseil dÉtat) on the basis that the required notification to the European Commission on State Aid has not been done. Following this appeal, the French Council of State decided to raise the issue for a preliminary ruling before the EU Court of Justice.

After years of litigation, the French Council of State decided to cancel the French Wind Tariff on May 2014. The EU Court of Justice argued that it constituted illegal State Aid as France failed to notify the European Commission of the subsidy back in 2008. Shortly after, the French Government approved and released a new tariff decree ("Arrêté du 17 juin 2014") that had previously received clearance from the European Union. This new decree contains the same parameters than the former decree and has come into force with retroactive effects. Therefore, it will not endanger or modify any power purchase agreement signed under the 2008 Order.

In July 2015, the "Energy Transition bill", whose aim is to build a long-term and comprehensive energy strategy, was finally passed. In 66 articles, the text targets to cut France's GHG emissions by 40% between 1990 and 2030 (and divide them by four by 2050), to halve the country's energy usage by 2050, to reduce the share of fossil fuels in energy production, to cap the total output from nuclear power at 63.2 GW and bring the share of renewables up to 32% of the energy mix.

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK FOR THE ACTIVITIES IN POLAND

The legislation applicable to renewable energy in Poland is primarily contained in an Energy Act passed on 10 April 1997, which has subsequently been amended by Act 24 July 2002 and the Energy Act of 2 April 2004, which came into effect in January 2005 (together, the ''Energy Act'').

The Energy Act introduces a support scheme for renewable energy facilities. The law includes a system of obligatory purchase Green Certificates by companies selling electricity to end-consumers, with mandatory quotas. These power companies are obliged to: a) obtain GC and submit them to the Energy Regulator, or b) pay a substitution fee calculated in accordance with the Energy Act. If suppliers fail to meet their obligation (either the submission of GC or the payment of substitution fee), they must pay a fine, equal to 130% of the substitution fee in that year.

Under the current legislation, the following quota apply (as amended by the ministerial decree of 18 October 2012): 2016: 15.0%, 2017:16.0%, 2018:17.0%, 2019:18.0% , 2020:19.0% and 2021:20.0%.

However, this initial scheme was amended in 2015. In February 2015 a new Renewables Law was approved, introducing a different support system. According to the law, the current Green Certificate (GC) system will be replaced by a tender scheme. However, the current GC scheme will be maintained (with some adjustments) for operating plants. These plants will have the choice to remain under the GC scheme or shift to the new scheme through specific tenders for operating assets.

In mid-December, as a result of the changes in Parliament (Poland's general election on 25 October was won by the right-wing Law and Justice Party), the new government postponed the implementation of tenders to July 2016. Therefore, up to this date, the GC system will be maintained.

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK FOR THE ACTIVITIES IN BELGIUM

The regulatory framework for electricity in Belgium is conditioned by the division of powers between the federal and the three regional entities: Wallonia, Flanders and Brussels-Capital. The federal regulatory field of competence includes electricity transmission (of transmission levels above 70 kV), generation, tariffs, planning and nuclear energy. The relevant federal legislation is the Electricity Act of 29 April 1999 (as modified) (the ''Electricity Act''). The regional regulatory entities are responsible for distribution, renewable energy and cogeneration (with the exception of offshore power plants) and energy efficiency. The relevant regional legislation, respectively, is: (a) for Flanders, the Electricity Decree of 17 July 2000; (b) for Wallonia, the Regional Electricity Market Decree of 12 April 2001; and (c) for Brussels-Capital, the Order of 19 July 2001 on the Organization of the Electricity Market.

The Belgian regulatory system promotes the generation of electricity from renewable sources (and cogeneration) by a system of GC as described below. The Belgian federal government is responsible for offshore power plants and for imposing obligations on the transmission system operators. The various GC systems are very similar across the three regions and are similar to the GC system for federally-regulated offshore power plants. There are currently differences in terms of quotas, fines and thresholds for granting GCs.

In Wallonia, GC are allocated for a maximum of 15 years. After the 10th year, the amount of GC can be reduced on the basis of the so-called "k factor". This parameter is calculated according to several criteria, including the additional operating costs of the renewable electricity production compared to conventional energy sources (Art. 15 Arrêté du 30 novembre 2006). The value of the "k-factor" to be applied to a certain installation is the one in force by the time it was granted its certificate of origin (Art. 15 Arrêté du 30 novembre 2006).

However, from 1 January 2015, the number of GC allocated to each technology is calculated according to a new methodology taking following factors into consideration (Art. 15, Arrêté du 30 novembre 2006):

x The net amount of electricity produced
x The energy performance coefficient of the installation
x The economic performance coefficient of the technology, which is adjusted by the Walloon regulatory Authority (CWaPE) every 2 years (for onshore wind)

Green Certificates benefit from a minimum price of 65€ and the penalty for non-compliance is set at 100€ per missing GC.

On 21 March 2012, Walloon government approved a decree which fixed the quotas of GC until 2020. The quotas are: (i) 19.4% in 2013; (ii) 23.1% in 2014; (iii) 26.7% in 2015; (iv) 30.4% in 2016.

A new tax for wind generators was approved in Wallonia in July 2012. According to this regulation, all generators earning GC shall pay 0,54 €/MWh. The energy regulator of Wallonia (CWaPE) is the beneficiary of this tax, aimed at supporting the costs originated by green certificates management.

REGULATORY FRAMEWORKS FOR THE ACTIVITIES IN ROMANIA

The promotion of electricity generated from renewable energy sources in Romania was set with the Electricity Law 318/2003. In 2005 a Green Certificate (GC) mechanism was introduced with mandatory quotas for suppliers, in order to comply with their EU renewable requirements. The regulatory authority establishes a fixed quota of electricity produced from renewable energy systems which suppliers are obliges to fulfil. Law 220/2008 of November, introduced some changes in the GC system. In particular, it allowed wind generators to receive 2GC/MWh until 2015. From 2016 onwards generators would receive only 1 GC for each MWh during 15 years.

The law also guaranteed that:

x The trading value of GC would have a floor of 27€ and a cap of 55€, both indexed to Romanian inflation
x The access to the National Grid for the electricity produced from renewable sources.

Law 220/2008 on renewable energy was amended by the Emergency Order 88/2011. A key aspect of this amendment was the overcompensation analysis which is to be carried out on a yearly basis. ANRE (Energy Regulator) has to monitor the benefits obtained by renewables' producers and annually prepare a report on this regard. If overcompensation is observed, ANRE has to propose a reduction of the applicability period of the support scheme or the number of GCs initially granted to the technology. This reduction would be applied only to new plants.

Law 123/2012 of 19 July 2012 on Electricity and Natural Gas eliminated the provision of bilateral contracts not publicly negotiated as a mean to sale electricity. Thus, trading of electricity must be carried out on a centralized market.

The Romanian Parliament passed on 17 December 2013, the law for the approval of the Government Emergency Ordinance 57/2013 (the Ordinance). The law brought several amendments to the Ordinance and implicitly to the Renewables Law (i.e. Law 220/2008). The amendments were:

The postponement of GC for operating plants. The postponement only applies to renewable energy operators accredited by ANRE before 2013. Wind power producers receive 2 GCs/MWh until 2017 (inclusive) of which 1 GC is postponed from trading from 1 July 2013 to 31 March 2017. Solar producers have 2 GCs (out of 6 GCs) postponed from trading from 1 July 2013 to 31 March 2017. The GCs postponed will be gradually recovered until 31 December 2020 (starting on 1 April 2017 for solar PV and 1 January 2018 for wind);
Wind facilities accredited after this date receive 1.5 GC/MWh until 2017 and 0.75 GC/MWh from 2018 onwards during 15 years. All these GC are immediately tradable;
Solar facilities only receive 3 GC from 1 January 2014 onwards.

On 24 March 2014, the President of Romania ratified EGO 57/2013 with the following amendments: (i) Reduction of the GC validity from 16 months to 12 months; and (ii) the obligation for ANRE (Energy Regulator) to communicate in each year the GC quota for the next year.

At this regard, ANRE released on 27 June 2014, the 2015 mandatory quota for acquisition of green certificates at 11.9%.

The European Commission (DG Competition) disclosed in May 2015, its clearance to the Romanian Renewables support scheme amendments notified in 2013 and 2014. Therefore, the amendments have been declared compatible with the European Energy and Environmental State aid Guidelines (EEAG).

Other main 2015 regulatory development was the approval of Law 122/2015 amending the Renewables' Law. The main objective was to grant a temporary accreditation from ANRE (Energy Regulator), to renewables' plants above 125 MW (but below 250 MW) that had not obtain an individual reply from the EC, and therefore, allow them to benefit from the GC support.

The Law 122/2015 also included other amendments to Romanian renewable energy law, being the most important ones: suppliers' obligation to purchase GC on a quarterly basis, the opening of the GC scheme to imported electricity and the removal of the right to receive GC for the electricity sold at negative prices

REGULATORY FRAMEWORKS FOR THE ACTIVITIES IN ITALY

On 6 July 2012, the Government approved a new renewable regulation by means of the Decree on Renewables (DM FER) introducing a feed-in-tariff support scheme (therefore, shifting away from the former GC system). The key aspects of the new regulation provided by the DM FER were the following: (i) wind farms over 5 MW would be remunerated under a feed-in tariff scheme defined by tenders; (ii) capacity to be tendered to be set by different technologies' capacity paths; (iii) the reference tariff for 2013 was 127 €/MWh for onshore wind and tender participants would bid offering discounts on a reference tariff (in %); (iv) The reference tariff would decrease 2% per year and will be granted for 20 years.

The new system replaces the previous one based on GCs. Under the previous system producers obtained their revenues from the sale of the electricity in the electricity market and from the sale of GCs. Wind farms built until December 2012 (with some exceptions) continued to operate under the previous system until 2015 (from 2015 onwards, the GC system was transformed into a feed-in-premium).

Spalma Incentivi Decree, published in November 2014, stipulated that wind farms under the GCs scheme could voluntarily adhere to an extension of the incentivation period of 7 years in exchange of a permanent reduction of the premium/GCs received, being the coefficient of reduction calculated individually for each wind farm depending on their remaining regulatory life. As the option was voluntary, wind farms that refused to accept this change remained under previous GCs scheme. Wind farms had to decide whether or not to adhere to the extension before 17 February 2015.

Since the implementation of the tender system, 3 reverse-auction have been held. It´s expected that a new decree will be passed in 2016 aimed to release new wind tenders for at least, the next two years. According to the draft, 800 MW of onshore wind could be tendered, with a reference tariff of 110€/MWh.

REGULATORY FRAMEWORKS FOR THE ACTIVITIES IN BRAZIL

The Electrical Sector in Brazil is regulated by Federal Law nr 8,987 of 13 February 1995, which generally rules the concession and permission regime of public services; Law nr 9,074 of 7 July 1995, which rules the grant and extension of public services concession or permission contracts; Federal Law nr 10,438 of 26 April 2002, which governs the increase in Emergency Electric Power Supply and creates the 3,300 MW Program of Incentives for Alternative Electricity Sources (PROINFA); Federal Law nr 10,762 of 11 November 2003 and Law nr 10,848 of 15 March 2004, concerning commercial rules for the trade of Electric Power; and, subsequent amendments to the legislation.

The Decree nr 5,025 of 30 March 2004, regulates the Federal Law nr 10,438 and states the "Alternative Energy Sources" economical and legal framework. PROINFA participants have granted a PPA with ELETROBRÁS, and are subject to the regulator (ANEEL) authority. However, the first stage of PROINFA has ended and the second stage is highly uncertain.

After PROINFA program, renewable producers obtain their remuneration by participating in auctions where price is the only criteria. Winners of the auctions obtain a PPA contract at the price bid. Public Electricity Auctions are technically lead by the state "Energy Planning and Research Company" (EPE), who registers, analyses and allows potential participants.

On 13 November 2015, the latest Reserve Auction (A-3) took place. As a result, Brazilian government contracted 1.664 MW of wind (548 MW) and solar PV (1.1 GW) capacity for a 20-year long-term contract through this auction. The auction exclusively sought wind and PV projects, with power delivery start date being 1 November 2018. Wind ceiling price was BRL 213/MWh. EDPR, through its subsidiary EDP Renováveis Brasil, S.A., secured in this auction a 20-year Power Purchase Agreement to sell electricity in the regulated market. The energy will be produced by a 140 MW wind farm to be installed in the Brazilian State of Bahia with operations expected for 2018. The initial price of the long term contract was set at R\$199.37/MWh, indexed to the Brazilian inflation rate.

02. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A) BASIS OF PREPARATION

The accompanying consolidated annual accounts have been prepared on the basis of the accounting records of EDP Renováveis, S.A. and consolidated entities. The consolidated annual accounts for 2015 and 2014 have been prepared to present fairly the consolidated equity and consolidated financial position of EDP Renováveis, S.A. and subsidiaries at 31 December 2015 and 2014, the consolidated results of operations, consolidated cash flows and changes in consolidated equity for the years then ended.

In accordance with Regulation (EC) no. 1606/2002 of 19 July 2002, from the European Council and Parliament, the Group's consolidated annual accounts are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as endorsed by the European Union (EU). IFRS comprise accounting standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and its predecessor body as well as interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) and its predecessor bodies.

The Board of Directors approved these consolidated annual accounts on 23 February 2016. The annual accounts are presented in thousands of Euros, rounded to the nearest thousand.

The annual accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified by the application of fair value basis for derivative financial instruments, financial assets and liabilities held for trading and available-forsale, except those for which a reliable measure of fair value is not available.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with the IFRS-EU requires the Board of Directors to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and of the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and related assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors considered reasonable in accordance with the circumstances. They form the basis for making judgments regarding the values of the assets and liabilities whose valuation is not apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The areas involving the highest degree of judgment or complexity, or for which the assumptions and estimates are considered significant, are disclosed in note 3 - Critical accounting estimates and judgments in applying accounting policies.

Accounting policies have been applied consistently by all Group companies and in all periods presented in the consolidated financial statements.

The consolidated balance sheet, consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of changes in equity, consolidated statement of cash flows and the notes thereto for 2015 include comparative figures for 2014, which formed part of the consolidated annual accounts approved by shareholders at the annual general meeting held on April 9th, 2015.

However, according to the resolution of January 29, 2016 of the Spanish Institute of Accounting and Auditing (ICAC) about the information to be included in the notes to the financial statements relating the average period of payments to suppliers, the information disclosed in note 34 does not include comparative information for 2014.

B) BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION

Controlled entities

Investments in subsidiaries where the Group has control are fully consolidated from the date the Group assumes control over their financial and operating activities until the moment that control ceases to exist.

An investor controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee, independently of the percentage of voting rights held.

Joint arrangements

The Group classifies an arrangement as a joint arrangement when the jointly control is contractually established. An investor controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee, independently of the percentage of voting rights held. Joint control exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties that collectively control the arrangement.

After determining the existence of joint control, the Group classifies joint arrangements into two types - joint operations and joint ventures.

A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement (i.e. joint operators) have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement, so the assets and liabilities (and related revenues and expenses) in relation to its interest in the arrangement are recognised and measured in accordance with relevant IFRSs applicable.

A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement (i.e. joint ventures) have rights to the net assets of the arrangement, so this investment shall be included in the consolidated financial statements under the equity method.

The consolidated financial statements include the Group's attributable share of total reserves and profits or losses of joint ventures, included in the consolidated financial statements under the equity method. When the Group's share of losses exceeds its interest in a jointly controlled entity, the Group's carrying amount is reduced to zero and recognition of further losses is discontinued, except to the extent that the Group has a legal or constructive obligation to cover such losses on behalf of that entity.

Entities over which the Group has significant influence

Investments in associates are included in the consolidated financial statements under the equity method from the date the Group acquires significant influence to the date it ceases. Associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence, but not control, over its financial and operating policies.

The existence of significant influence by the Group is usually evidenced by one or more of the following:

Representation on the Executive Board of Directors or equivalent governing body of the investee;
Participation in policy-making processes, including participation in decisions about dividends and other distributions;
Existence of material transactions between the Group and the investee;
Interchange of managerial personnel;
Provision of essential technical information.

The consolidated financial statements include the Group's attributable share of total reserves and profits or losses of associates, included in the consolidated financial statements under the equity method. When the Group's share of losses exceeds its interest in an associate, the Group's carrying amount is reduced to zero and recognition of further losses is discontinued, except to the extent that the Group has a legal or constructive obligation to cover such losses on behalf of the associate.

Business combination

From 1 January 2010 the Group has applied IFRS 3 Business Combinations (2008) in accounting for business combinations.

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method as at the acquisition date, which is the date on which control is transferred to the Group. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, the Group takes into consideration potential voting rights that currently are exercisable.

Acquisitions on or after 1 January 2010

For acquisitions on or after 1 January 2010, the Group measures goodwill at the acquisition date as:

The fair value of the consideration transferred; plus
The recognised amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree; plus
If the business combination is achieved in stages, the fair value of the existing equity interest in the acquiree; less
The net recognised amount (generally fair value) of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

When the excess is negative, a bargain purchase gain is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

The consideration transferred does not include amounts related to the settlement of pre-existing relationships. Such amounts are generally recognised in profit or loss.

Costs related to the acquisition, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, that the Group incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred.

Any contingent consideration payable is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it is not remeasured and settlement is accounted for within equity. Otherwise, subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration are recognised in profit or loss.

Some business combinations in the period have been determined provisionally as the Group is currently in the process of measuring the fair value of the net assets acquired. The identifiable net assets have therefore initially been recognised at their provisional value. Adjustments during the measurement period have been recorded as if they had been known at the date of the combination and comparative information for the prior year has been restated where applicable. Adjustments to provisional values only include information relating to events and circumstances existing at the acquisition date and which, had they been known, would have affected the amounts recognised at that date.

After that period, adjustments to initial measurement are only made to correct an error.

Acquisitions between 1 January 2004 and 1 January 2010

For acquisitions between 1 January 2004 and 1 January 2010, goodwill represents the excess of the cost of the acquisition over the Group's interest in the recognised amount (generally fair value) of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquire. When the excess was negative, a bargain purchase gain was recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Transaction costs, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, that the Group incurred in connection with business combinations were capitalised as part of the cost of the acquisition.

Accounting for acquisitions of non-controlling interests

From 1 January 2010, acquisitions of non-controlling interests are accounted for as transactions with owners in their capacity as owners and therefore no goodwill is recognised as a result of such transactions. The adjustments to non-controlling interests are based on a proportionate amount of the net assets of the subsidiary.

Previously, goodwill was recognised on the acquisition of non-controlling interests in a subsidiary, which represented the excess of the cost of the additional investment over the carrying amount of the interest in the net assets acquired at the date of the transaction.

Investments in foreign operations

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to Euro at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations, are translated to Euro at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.

Foreign currency differences are recognised in other comprehensive income in the translation reserve. On disposal of a foreign subsidiary, the related exchange differences previously recognised in reserves, are accounted for in the income statement. as part of the profit or loss on disposal.

When the settlement of a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operation is neither planned nor likely in the foreseeable future, foreign exchange gains and losses arising from such a monetary item are considered to form part of a net investment in a foreign operation and are recognised in other comprehensive income, and presented in the translation reserve in equity.

Balances and transactions eliminated on consolidation

Inter-company balances and transactions, including any unrealised gains and losses on transactions between group companies, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealised gains and losses arising from transactions with associates and jointly controlled entities are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in those entities.

Common control transactions

The accounting for transactions among entities under common control is excluded from IFRS 3. Consequently, in the absence of specific guidance, within IFRSs, the EDP Renováveis Group has developed an accounting policy for such transactions, as considered appropriate. According to the Group's policy, business combinations among entities under common control are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the EDP consolidated book values of the acquired company (subgroup). The difference between the carrying amount of the net assets received and the consideration paid, is recognised in equity.

Put options related to non-controlling interests

EDP Renováveis Group records written put options at the date of acquisition of a business combination or at a subsequent date as an advance acquisition of these interests, recording a financial liability for the present value of the best estimate of the amount payable, irrespective of the estimated probability that the options will be exercised. The difference between this amount and the amount corresponding to the percentage of the interests held in the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

Until 31 December 2009, in years subsequent to initial recognition, the changes in the liability due to the effect of the financial discount are recognised as a financial expense in the consolidated income statement, and the remaining changes are recognised as an adjustment to the cost of the business combination. Where applicable, dividends paid to minority shareholders up to the date the options are exercised are also recorded as adjustments to the cost of the business combination. In the event that the options are not exercised, the transaction would be recorded as a sale of interests to minority shareholders.

As from January 2010, the Group applies IAS 27 (2008) to new put options related to non-controlling interests and, therefore, subsequent changes in the carrying amount of the put liability are recognised in profit or loss.

Business combinations achieved in stages

In a business combination achieved in stages, the excess of the aggregate of (i) the consideration transferred, (ii) the amount of any non-controlling interest recognized in the acquiree (iii) the fair value of the previously held equity interest in the acquired business; over the net of amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, is recognized as goodwill.

If applicable, the defect, after evaluating the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest recognized in the acquiree, the fair value of the previously held equity interest in the acquired business; and the valuation of the net assets acquired, is recognized in the income statement. The Group recognizes the difference between the fair value of the previously held equity interest in the acquired business and the carrying value in consolidated results according to its classification. Additionally, the Group reclassifies the deferred amounts in other comprehensive income relating to the previously held equity interest to the income statement or consolidated reserves, according to their nature.

C) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS

Foreign currency transactions are translated at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated into Euros at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. These exchange differences arising on translation are recognised in the income statement.

Foreign currency non-monetary assets and liabilities accounted for at historical cost are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign currency non-monetary assets and liabilities stated at fair value are translated into Euros at the exchange rates at the dates the fair value was determined.

D) DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGE ACCOUNTING

Derivative financial instruments are recognised on the trade date at fair value. Subsequently, the fair value of derivative financial instruments is re-measured on a regular basis, being the gains or losses on re-measurement recognised directly in the income statement, except for derivatives designated as hedging instruments. The recognition of the resulting gains or losses on re-measurement of the derivatives designated as hedging instruments depends on the nature of the risk being hedged and of the hedge model used.

The fair value of derivatives correspond to their quoted market prices as provided by an exchange, or is determined by through the use of net present value techniques, including discounted cash flows models and option pricing models, as appropriate.

HEDGE ACCOUNTING

The Group uses financial instruments to hedge interest and foreign exchange risks resulting from its operational and financing activities. The derivate financial instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recorded as for trading.

The derivatives that are designated as hedging instruments are recorded at fair value, being the gains and losses recognised in accordance with the hedge accounting model adopted by the Group. Hedge accounting is used when:

(i) At the inception of the hedge, the hedge relationship is identified and documented;

(ii) The hedge is expected to be highly effective;

(iii) The effectiveness of the hedge can be reliably measured;

(iv) The hedge is revalued on an on-going basis and is considered to be highly effective over the reporting period; and

(v) The forecast transactions hedged are highly probable and represent a risk to changes in cash flows that could affect the income statement.

Derivatives are recognised initially at fair value; attributable transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss as incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are accounted for as described below.

Cash flow hedge

The effective portion of the changes in the fair value of the derivative financial instruments that are designated as hedging instruments in a cash flow hedge model is recognised in equity. The gains or losses relating to the ineffective portion of the hedging relationship are recognised in the income statement in the moment they occur.

The cumulative gains or losses recognised in equity are also reclassified to the income statement over the periods in which the hedged item will affect the income statement. When the forecast transaction hedge results in the recognition of a non-financial asset, the gains or losses recorded in equity are included in the acquisition cost of the asset.

When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss recognised in equity at that time stays recognised in equity until the hedged transaction also affects the income statement. When the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gains or losses recognized in equity are recorded in the income statement.

Net investment hedge

The net investment hedge is applied on a consolidated basis to investments in subsidiaries in foreign currencies. The exchange differences recorded against exchange differences arising on consolidation are offset by the exchange differences arising from the foreign currency borrowings used for the acquisition of those subsidiaries. If the hedging instrument is a derivative, the gains or losses arising from fair value changes are also recorded against exchange differences arising on consolidation. The ineffective portion of the hedging relation is recognised in the income statement.

E) OTHER FINANCIAL ASSETS

The Group classifies its other financial assets at acquisition date in the following categories:

Loans and receivable

Loans and receivable are initially recognised at their fair value and subsequently are measured at amortised cost less impairment losses.

Impairment losses are recorded based on the valuation of estimated losses from non-collection of loans and receivable at the balance sheet date. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement, and can be reversed if the estimated losses decrease in a later period.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

This category includes: (i) financial assets held for trading, which are those acquired for the purpose of being traded in the short term, and (ii) financial assets that are designated at fair value through profit or loss at inception.

Available-for-sale investments

Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-for-sale and that are not classified in any of the other categories. The Group's investments in equity securities are classified as available-for-sale financial assets.

Initial recognition, measurement and derecognition

Purchases and sales of: (i) financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and (ii) available-for-sale investments, are recognised on trade date, the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the assets.

Financial assets are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, in which case these transaction costs are directly recognised in the income statement.

Financial assets are derecognised when: (i) the contractual rights to receive their cash flows have expired, (ii) the Group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership or (iii) although retaining some, but not substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership, the Group has transferred the control over the assets.

Subsequent measurement

After initial recognition, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value and gains and losses arising from changes in their fair value are included in the income statement in the period in which they arise.

Available-for-sale financial assets are also subsequently carried at fair value. However, gains and losses arising from changes in their fair value are recognised directly in equity, until the financial assets are derecognised or impaired. When this occurs, the cumulative gains or losses previously recognised in equity are immediately recognised in the income statement. Foreign exchange differences arising from equity investments classified as available-for-sale are also recognised in equity. Interest calculated using the effective interest rate method and dividends, are recognised in the income statement.

The fair values on quoted investments in active markets are based on current bid prices. For unlisted securities the Group determines the fair value through: (i) valuation techniques, including the use of recent arm's length transactions or discounted cash flow analysis and (ii) valuation assumptions based on market information.

Financial instruments whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are carried at cost.

Reclassifications between categories

The Group does not reclassify, after initial recognition, a financial instrument into or out of the fair value through profit or loss category.

Impairment

At each balance sheet date, an assessment is performed as to whether there is objective evidence of impairment, including any impairment resulting in an adverse effect on estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets.

If there is objective evidence of impairment, the recoverable amount of the financial asset is determined, and the impairment loss is recognised in the income statement.

A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after their initial recognition, such as: (i) in the case of listed securities, a significant or prolonged decline in the listed price of the security, and (ii) in the case of unlisted securities, when that event (or events) has an impact on the estimated amount of the future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets, that can be reliably estimated.

Evaluating the existence of objective evidence of impairment involves judgement, in which case the Group considers, among other factors, price volatility and current economic situation. Thus, when listed securities are concerned, it is considered as continuous a devaluation in the listed price of the security for a period over 24 months and as significant a devaluation of the security's value above 40%.

If there is objective evidence of impairment on available-for-sale investments, the cumulative potential loss recognised in fair values reserves, corresponding to the difference between the acquisition cost and the fair value at the balance sheet date, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in the income statement, is transferred to the income statement.

F) FINANCIAL LIABILITIES

An instrument is classified as a financial liability when it contains a contractual obligation to transfer cash or another financial asset, independently from its legal form. These financial liabilities are recognised (i) initially at fair value less transaction costs and (ii) subsequently at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

The Group derecognises the whole or part of a financial liability when the obligations included in the contract have been satisfied or the Group is legally released of the fundamental obligation related to this liability either through a legal process or by the creditor.

G) BORROWING COSTS

Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of assets are capitalised as part of the cost of the assets. A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale. To the extent that funds are borrowed generally, the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation are determined by applying a capitalisation rate to the expenditures on these assets. The capitalisation rate corresponds to the weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the borrowings of the enterprise that are outstanding during the period, other than borrowings made specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset. The amount of borrowing costs capitalised during a period does not exceed the amount of borrowing costs incurred during the period.

The capitalisation of borrowing costs commences when expenditures for the asset are being incurred, borrowing costs have been incurred and activities necessary to prepare all or part of the assets for their intended use or sale are in progress. Capitalisation ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying assets for their intended use or sale are completed. Capitalisation of borrowing costs shall be suspended during extended periods in which active development is interrupted.

H) PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment are stated at acquisition cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. In case of projects in a development stage, costs are only capitalized when it is probable that the project will be finally built. If due to changes in regulation or other circumstances costs capitalized are derecognized from property plant and equipment, they are recognized in the profit and loss caption of "Other expenses". Replacements or renewals of complete items are recognized as increases in the value of property, plant and equipment and the items replaced or renewed are derecognized and recognized in the "Other expenses" caption.

The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition for its intended use, and the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located. Cost also may include transfers from equity of any gain or loss on qualifying cash flow hedges of foreign currency purchases of property, plant and equipment. Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalised as part of that equipment.

The cost of acquisition includes interest on external financing and personnel costs and other internal expenses directly or indirectly related to work in progress accrued solely during the period of construction. The cost of production is capitalised by charging costs attributable to the asset as own work capitalised under financial expenses and personnel costs and employee benefit expense in the consolidated income statement.

When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Subsequent costs are recognised as separate assets only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group. All repair and maintenance costs are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.

The Group assesses assets impairment, whenever events or circumstances may indicate that the book value of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the impairment being recognised in the income statement.

Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on the other assets is calculated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

	NUMBER OF YEARS
Buildings and other constructions	8 to 40
Plant and machinery:
- Wind farm generation	25
- Other plant and machinery	4 to 25
Transport equipment	3 to 5
Office equipment and tools	2 to 10
Other tangible fixed assets	3 to 10

I) INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Group´s intangible assets are booked at acquisition cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. The Group does not own intangible assets with indefinite lives.

The Group performs impairment tests, whenever events or circumstances may indicate that the book value of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount, being any impairment recognised in the income statement.

Acquisition and development of software

Acquired computer software licenses are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific software. These costs are amortised on the basis of their expected useful lives.

Costs that are directly associated with the development of identifiable specific software applications by the Group, and that will probably generate economic benefits beyond one year, are recognised as intangible assets. These costs include employee costs directly associated with the development of the referred software and are amortised using the straight-line method during their expected useful lives.

Maintenance costs of software are charged to the income statement when incurred.

Industrial property and other rights

The amortisation of industrial property and other rights is calculated using the straight-line method for an expected useful live expected of less than 6 years.

Green Certificates

As per Romanian Regulatory Framework, there's a category of Green Certificates (GCs) which although granted are restricted for sale until 2017 (solar) and 2018 (wind). These deferred GCs are recognised as intangible assets when generated at fair market value. These GCs will be offset as they will be collected.

Power purchase agreements

Acquired Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) are booked as intangible assets and amortised using the straightline method according with the duration of the contract.

J) NON-CURRENT ASSETS HELD FOR SALE AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Non-current assets or groups of non-current assets held for sale (groups of assets and related liabilities that include at least one noncurrent asset) are classified as held for sale when their carrying amounts will be recovered mainly through sale, the assets or groups of assets are available for immediate sale and the sale is highly probable.

The Group also classifies as non-current assets held for sale, non-current assets or groups of assets acquired exclusively for its subsequent resale, that are available for immediate sale and the sale is highly probable.

The measurement of all non-current assets and all assets and liabilities included in a disposal group, is adjusted in accordance with the applicable IFRS standards, immediately before their classification as held for sale. Subsequently, these assets or disposal groups are measured at the lowest between their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.

K) IMPAIRMENT OF NON-FINANCIAL ASSETS

The carrying amounts of the Group's non-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset's recoverable amount is then estimated. For goodwill the recoverable amount is estimated at each reporting date.

The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a post-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (the cash-generating unit). The goodwill acquired in a business combination, for the purpose of impairment testing, is allocated to cash-generating units which are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro-rata basis.

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in circumstances that caused the impairment. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

L) LEASES

The Group classifies its lease agreements as finance leases or operating leases taking into consideration the substance of the transaction rather than its legal form. A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers to the lessee substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

Operating leases

Lease payments are recognised as an expense and charged to the income statement in the period to which they relate.

M) INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of the acquisition cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories includes purchases, conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. The net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated selling costs.

The cost of inventories is assigned by using the weighted average method.

N) CLASSIFICATION OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES AS CURRENT AND NON-CURRENT

The Group classifies assets and liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position as current and noncurrent. Current assets and liabilities are determined as follows:

Assets are classified as current when they are expected to be realised or are intended for sale or consumption in the Group's normal operating cycle, they are held primarily for the purpose of trading, they are expected to be realised within twelve months of the balance sheet date or are cash or a cash equivalent, unless the assets may not be exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months from the balance sheet date.

Liabilities are classified as current when they are expected to be settled in the Group's normal operating cycle, they are held primarily for the purpose of trading, they are due to be settled within twelve months of the balance sheet date or the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

Financial liabilities are classified as current when they are due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, even if the original term was for a period longer than twelve months, and an agreement to refinance, or to reschedule payments, on a long-term basis is completed after the reporting period and before the consolidated financial statements are authorised for issue.

O) PROVISIONS

Provisions are recognised when: (i) the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation, (ii) it is probable that settlement will be required in the future and (iii) a reliable estimate of the obligation can be made.

Dismantling and decommissioning provisions

The Group recognises dismantling and decommissioning provisions for property, plant and equipment when a legal or contractual obligation is settled to dismantling and decommissioning those assets at the end of their useful life. Consequently, the Group has booked provisions for property, plant and equipment related with wind turbines, for the expected cost of restoring sites and land to its original condition. The provisions correspond to the present value of the expenditure expected to be required to settle the obligation and are recognised as part of the initial cost or an adjustment to the cost of the respective asset, being depreciated on a straight-line basis over the asset useful life.

The assumptions used for 2015 and 2014 are:

	EDPR EU	EDPR NA
Average cost per MW (Euros)	14,000	22,045
Salvage value per MW (Euros)	41,000	32,148
Discount rate
Euro	[1.90% - 2.50%]	-
PLN	[3.00% - 4.00%]	-
USD	-	[3.85% - 5.00%]
CAD	-	[3.35% - 4.25%]
RON	[4.50% - 5.65%]	-
Inflation rate
Euro zone	[1.75% - 1.85%]	-
Poland	0.90%	-
USA	-	2.50%
Canada	-	2.25%
Capitalisation (number of years)	25	25

Decommissioning and dismantling provisions are remeasured on an annual basis based on the best estimate of the settlement amount. The unwinding of the discount at each balance sheet date is charged to the income statement.

Tax liabilities

Liabilities for payment of taxes or levies related to an activity of the Group are recognized as the activity which triggers the payment is carried out, according to the laws regulating such taxes or levies. However, in the cases of taxes or levies with right of reimbursement of the amount already paid proportionally to the period of time in which there is no activity or the asset which triggers the payment is no longer owned, liabilities are recognized on a proportional basis.

P) RECOGNITION OF COSTS AND REVENUE

Costs and revenues are recorded in the year to which they refer regardless of when paid or received, in accordance with the accrual concept. Differences between amounts received and paid and the corresponding revenue and expenditure are recorded under other assets and other liabilities.

Revenue comprises the amounts invoiced on the sale of products or of services rendered, net of value added tax, rebates and discounts, after elimination of intra-group sales.

Revenue from energy sales is recognised in the period that energy is generated and transferred to customers.

Deferred Green Certificates (GCs) are recognised as revenue at fair market value.

Q) FINANCIAL RESULTS

Financial results include interest payable on borrowings, interest receivable on funds invested, dividend income, unwinding of the discount of provisions and written put options to non-controlling interests, foreign exchange gains and losses, gains and losses on financial instruments and the accrual of tax equity estimated interest over outstanding liability.

Interest income is recognised in the income statement based on the effective interest rate method. Dividend income is recognised in the income statement on the date the entity's right to receive payments is established.

R) INCOME TAX

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a items recognized directly in equity, in which case is also recognized in equity.

Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities to the extent that it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future. In addition, deferred tax is not recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.

A deferred tax asset is recognised for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

S) EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net profit attributable to equity holders of the parent company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year, excluding the average number of ordinary shares purchased by the Group and held as treasury stock.

T) CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents include balances with maturity of less than three months from the date of acquisition, including cash and deposits in banks. This caption also includes other short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and specific demand deposits in relation to institutional partnerships that are funds required to be held in escrow sufficient to pay the remaining construction related costs of projects in institutional equity partnerships in U.S.A., in the next twelve months.

The Group classifies as cash and cash equivalents the balance of the current accounts with the Group formalized under cash-pooling agreements.

U) GOVERNMENT GRANTS

Government grants are recognised initially as deferred income under non-current liabilities when there is reasonable assurance that they will be received and that the Group will comply with the conditions associated with the grant. Grants that compensate the Group for expenses incurred are recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis in the same periods in which the expenses are recognised.

V) ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES

The Group takes measures to prevent, reduce or repair the damage caused to the environment by its activities.

Expenses derived from environmental activities are recognised as other operating expenses in the period in which they are incurred.

W) INSTITUTIONAL PARTNERSHIPS IN U.S. WIND FARMS

The Group has entered in several partnerships with institutional investors in the United States, through limited liability Company operating agreements that apportion the cash flows generated by the wind farms between the investors and the Company and allocates the tax benefits, which include Production Tax Credits (PTCs), Investment Tax Credits (ITC) and accelerated depreciation, largely to the investor.

The institutional investors purchase their minority partnership interests for an upfront cash payment with an agreed targeted internal rate of return over the period that the tax credits are generated. This anticipated return is computed based on the total anticipated benefit that the institutional investors will receive and includes the value of PTC's / ITC's, allocated taxable income or loss and cash distributions received.

The control and management of these wind farms are a responsibility of EDPR Group and they are fully consolidated in these financial statements.

The upfront cash payment received is recognised under 'Liabilities arising from institutional partnerships' and subsequently measured at amortised cost.

This liability is reduced by the value of tax benefits provided and cash distributions made to the institutional investors during the contracted period. The value of the tax benefits delivered, primarily accelerated depreciation and ITC are recognized as Income from institutional partnerships on a pro-rata basis over the 25 year useful life of the underlying projects (see note 7). The value of the PTC's delivered are recorded as generated. This liability is increased by an interest accrual that is based on the outstanding liability balance and the targeted internal rate of return agreed.

After the Flip Date, the institutional investor retains a non-significant interest for the duration of the structure. This non-controlling interest is entitled to distributions ranging from 2.5 % to 6 % and taxable income allocations ranging from 5% to 17%. EDPR NA has an option to purchase the institutional investor's residual interest at fair market value during a defined period following the flip date. A liability to provide for the institutional investors' minority interest is accreted on a straight-line basis from the funding date through the Flip Date.

03. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The IFRS set forth a range of accounting treatments and require the Board of Directors to apply judgment and make estimates in deciding which treatment is most appropriate.

The main accounting estimates and judgements used in applying the accounting policies are discussed in this note in order to improve the understanding of how their application affects the Group's reported results and disclosures. A broader description of the accounting policies employed by the Group is disclosed in note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Although estimates are calculated by the Board of Directors based on the best information available at 31 December 2015 and 2014, future events may require changes to these estimates in subsequent years. Any effect on the financial statements of adjustments to be made in subsequent years would be recognised prospectively.

Considering that in many cases there are alternatives to the accounting treatment adopted by EDP Renováveis, the Group's reported results could differ if a different treatment was chosen. EDP Renováveis believes that the choices made are appropriate and that the financial statements are presented fairly, in all material respects, the Group's financial position and results. The alternative outcomes discussed below are presented solely to assist the reader in understanding the financial statements and are not intended to suggest that other alternatives or estimates would be more appropriate.

Fair value of derivatives

Fair values are based on listed market prices, if available, otherwise fair value is determined either by dealer prices (both for that transaction or for similar instruments traded) or by pricing models, based on net present value of estimated future cash flows which take into account market conditions for the underlying instruments, time value, yield curves and volatility factors. These pricing models may require assumptions or judgments in estimating fair values.

Consequently, the use of a different model or of different assumptions or judgments in applying a particular model may have produced different financial results for a particular period.

Fair value measurement of contingent consideration

The contingent consideration, from a business combination or a sale of a minority interest while retaining control is measured at fair value at the acquisition date as part of the business combination or at the date of the sale in the event of a sale of a minority interest. The contingent consideration is subsequently remeasured at fair value at balance sheet date. Fair value is based on discounted cash flows. The main assumptions consider the probability of achieving each objective and the discount factor, corresponding to the best estimates of management at each balance sheet date. Changes in assumptions could have impact on the values of contingent assets and liabilities recognized in the financial statements.

Review of the useful life of assets related to production

The Group regularly reviews the useful life of its electrical generation installations in order to bring it into line with the technical and economic measurements of the installations, taking into consideration their technological capacity and prevailing regulatory restrictions.

Impairment of non-financial assets

Impairment test are performed whenever there is an indication that the recoverable amount of property, plant, equipment and intangible assets is less than the corresponding net book value of assets.

On an annual basis, the Group reviews the assumptions used to assess the existence of impairment in goodwill resulting from acquisitions of shares in subsidiaries. The assumptions used are sensitive to changes in macroeconomic indicators and business assumptions used by management. The net interest in associates is reviewed when circumstances indicate the existence of impairment.

Considering that estimated recoverable amounts related to property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and goodwill are based on the best information available, changes in the estimates and judgments could change the impairment test results which could affects the Group's reported results.

Income taxes

The Group is subject to income taxes in numerous jurisdictions. Significant interpretations and estimates are required in determining the global amount for income taxes.

There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. Different interpretations and estimates would result in a different level of income taxes, current and deferred, recognised in the period.

Tax Authorities are entitled to review EDP Renováveis, and its subsidiaries' determination of its annual taxable earnings, for a determined period that may be extended in case there are tax losses carried forward. Therefore, it is possible that some additional taxes may be assessed, mainly as a result of differences in interpretation of the tax law. However, the EDP Renováveis and its subsidiaries, do not anticipate any significant changes to the income tax booked in the financial statements.

Dismantling and decommissioning provisions

The Board of Directors considers that Group has contractual obligations with the dismantling and decommissioning of property, plant and equipment related to wind electricity generation. For these responsibilities the Group has recorded provisions for the expected cost of restoring sites and land to its original condition. The provisions correspond to the present value of the expenditure expected to be required to settle the obligation.

The use of different assumptions in estimates and judgments referred may have produced different results from those that have been considered.

Green Certificates

As a consequence of the regulatory framework in Romania related to Green Certificates (GCs), the Group has the following assumptions:

(i) For estimating the price of GCs, the model is based on current regulation including the latest developments published in the last months and estimations on renewable capacity to be added in the following years;

(ii) The GC model determines whether there will be excess or deficit of GCs to evaluate the price to apply;

"In order to determine whether there will be excess or deficit of GCs, we compare demand with supply of GCs. Demand of GCs is calculated by multiplying gross electricity consumption and quotas of renewable electricity. Electricity demand growth is based in latest external estimates, including those from Romanian regulator ANRE. EDPR has made sensitivity analyses to the quotas and has assumed a conservative scenario that considers the latest regulatory changes.

Entities included in the consolidation perimeter

In order to determine which entities must be included in the consolidation perimeter, the Group evaluates whether it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.

This evaluation requires judgement, assumptions and estimates in order to conclude whether the Group is in fact exposed to variable returns and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.

Other assumptions and estimates could lead to a different consolidation perimeter of the Group, with direct impact in the consolidated financial statements.

04. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES

The businesses of EDP Renováveis Group are exposed to a variety of financial risks, including the effects of changes in market prices, foreign exchange and interest rates. The main financial risks lie essentially in its debt portfolio, arising from interest-rate and the exchange-rate exposures. The unpredictability of the financial markets is analysed on an on-going basis in accordance with the EDPR's risk management policy. Financial instruments are used to minimize potential adverse effects resulting from the interest rates and foreign exchange rates risks on EDP Renováveis financial performance.

The Board of Directors of EDP Renováveis is responsible for the definition of general risk-management principles and the establishment of exposure limits. Recommendations to manage financial risks of EDP Renováveis Group are proposed by EDPR's Finance and Global Risk Departments and discussed in the Financial Risk Committee of EDP Renováveis, which is held quarterly. The pre-agreed strategy is shared with the Finance Department of EDP - Energias de Portugal, S.A., to verify the accordance with the policies approved by the Board of Directors of EDP. The evaluation of appropriate hedging mechanisms and the execution are outsourced to the Finance Department of EDP.

All transactions undertaken using derivative financial instruments require the prior approval of the Board of Directors, which defines the parameters of each transaction and approves the formal documents describing their objectives.

Exchange-rate risk management

EDPR/EDP Group's Financial Department are responsible for managing the foreign exchange exposure of the Group, seeking to mitigate the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on the net assets and net profits of the Group, using foreign exchange derivatives, foreign exchange debt and/or other hedging structures with symmetrical exposure characteristics to those of the hedged item. The effectiveness of these hedges is reassessed and monitored throughout their lives.

EDPR operates internationally and is exposed to the exchange-rate risk resulting from investments in foreign subsidiaries. With the objective of minimizing the impact of exchange rates fluctuations, EDP Renováveis general policy is to fund each project in the currency of the operating cash flows generated by the project.

Currently, the main currency exposure is the U.S. Dollar, resulting from the shareholding in EDPR NA. With the increasing capacity in other geographies, EDPR is also becoming exposed to other currencies (Brazilian Real, Zloty, New Romanian Leu and Canadian Dollar).

To hedge the risk originated with net investment in EDPR NA, EDP Renováveis entered into a CIRS in USD/EUR with EDP Branch and also uses financial debt expressed in USD. Following the same strategy adopted to hedge these investments in USA, EDP Renováveis has also entered into CIRS in BRL/EUR and in PLN/EUR to hedge the investments in Brazil and Poland (see note 36).

Sensitivity analysis - Foreign exchange rate

As a consequence a depreciation/appreciation of 10% in the foreign currency exchange rate, with reference to 31 December 2015 and 2014, would originate an increase/(decrease) in EDP Renováveis Group income statement and equity before taxes, as follows:

	31 DEC 2015
	PROFIT OR LOSS			EQUITY
	+10%	-10%	+10%	-10%
USD / EUR	-359	439	-	-
	-359	439	-	-
	31 DEC 2014
	PROFIT OR LOSS			EQUITY
	+10%	-10%	+10%	-10%
USD / EUR	5,825	-7,119	-	-
	5,825	-7,119	-	-

THOUSANDS OF EUROS

This analysis assumes that all other variables, namely interest rates, remain unchanged.

Interest rate risk management

The Group's operating cash flows are substantially independent from the fluctuation in interest-rate markets.

The purpose of the interest-rate risk management policies is to reduce the exposure of debt cash flows to market fluctuations. As such, whenever considered necessary and in accordance to the Group's policy, the Group contracts derivative financial instruments to hedge interest rate risks.

In the floating-rate financing context, the Group contracts interest-rate derivative financial instruments to hedge cash flows associated with future interest payments, which have the effect of converting floating rate loans into fixed rate loans.

All these hedges are undertaken on liabilities in the Group's debt portfolio and are mainly perfect hedges with a high correlation between changes in fair value of the hedging instrument and changes in fair value of the interest-rate risk or upcoming cash flows.

The EDP Renováveis Group has a portfolio of interest-rate derivatives with maturities up to 11 years. The Financial Department of EDP Group undertakes sensitivity analyses of the fair value of financial instruments to interest-rate fluctuations or upcoming cash flows.

About 92% of EDP Renováveis Group financial debt bear interest at fixed rates, considering operations of hedge accounting with financial instruments.

Sensitivity analysis - Interest rates

EDPR/EDP Group's Financial Department are responsible for managing the interest rate risk associated to activities developed by the Group, contracting derivative financial instruments to mitigate this risk.

Based on the EDPR Group debt portfolio and the related derivative financial instruments used to hedge associated interest rate risk, as well as on the shareholder loans received by EDP Renováveis, a change of 50 basis points in the interest rates with reference to 31 December 2015 and 2014 would increase/(decrease) in EDP Renováveis Group income statement and equity before taxes, as follows:

THOUSANDS OF EUROS

	31 DEC 2015
	PROFIT OR LOSS			EQUITY
	+ 50 BPS	- 50 BPS	+ 50 BPS	- 50 BPS
Cash flow hedge derivatives	-	-	15,668	-16,388

Unhedged debt (variable interest rates)	-1,094	1,094	-	-
	-1,094	1,094	12,343	-12,844

This analysis assumes that all other variables, namely foreign exchange rates, remain unchanged.

Counter-party credit-rate risk management in financial transactions

The EDP Renováveis Group counter-party risk exposure in financial and non-financial transactions is managed by an analysis of technical capacity, competitiveness and probability of default to the counter-party. EDP Renováveis has defined a counter-party risk policy inspired in Basel III, which is implemented across all departments in all EDP Renováveis geographies. Counterparties in derivatives and financial transactions are restricted to highquality credit institutions or to the EDP Group.

Most relevant counterparties in derivatives and financial transactions are companies within EDP Group. Financial instruments contracted outside EDP Group are generally engaged under ISDA Master Agreements. The credit quality of external counterparties is analysed according to the counter-party risk policy of the Group and collaterals are required when exposure is above the pre-established limits.

In the specific case of the energy sales of EDPR EU Group, the Group's main customers are operators and distributors in the energy market of their respective countries (OMIE and MEFF in the case of the Spanish market). Credit risk is not significant due to the limited average collection period for customer balances and the quality of its debtors. Additional counter-party risk comes from the countries that set renewables incentives, which it is usually treated as regulatory risk.

In the specific case of EDPR NA Group, the Group's main customers are regulated utility companies and regional market agents in the US. As it occurs in Europe, credit risk is not significant due to the limited average collection period for customer balances and the quality of the debtors. However, the exposure to customers in long term contracts also comes from the mark-to-market of those contracts. This exposure is managed by a detailed assessment of the counter-party before signing any long term agreement and by a requirement of collaterals depending on the exposure and on the rating.

EDP Renováveis believes that the amount that best represents the Group's exposure to credit risk corresponds to the carrying amount of Trade receivables and Other debtors, net of the impairment losses recognised. The Group believes that the credit quality of these receivables is adequate and that no significant impaired credits exist that have not been recognised as such and provided for.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the possibility that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group strategy to manage liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have significant liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group's reputation.

The liquidity policy followed ensures compliance with payment obligations acquired, through maintaining sufficient credit facilities and having access to the EDP Group facilities.

The EDP Renováveis Group undertakes management of liquidity risk through the engagement and maintenance of credit lines and financing facilities with its main shareholder, as well as directly in the market with national and international financial institutions, assuring the necessary funds to perform its activities.

Market price risk

As at 31 December 2015, market price risk affecting the EDP Renováveis Group is not significant. In the case of EDPR NA, the great majority of the plants are under power purchase agreements, with fixed or escalating prices. In the case of EDPR EU, the electricity is sold in Spain, France, Italy and Portugal through regulated tariffs whether in Romania and Poland most plants sell their electricity and green certificates under power purchase agreements with fixed prices or floors.

For the small share of energy, green certificates and RECs generated with market exposure, this risk is managed through electricity sales swaps and REC swaps. EDPR EU and EDPR NA have electricity sales and REC swaps that qualify for hedge accounting (cash flow hedge) that are related to electricity sales for the years 2016 to 2019 (see note 36). The purpose of EDP Renováveis Group is to hedge a volume of energy generated to reduce its exposure to the energy price volatility.

Capital management

The Group's goal in managing equity, in accordance with the policies established by its main shareholder, is to safeguard the Group's capacity to continue operating as a going concern, grow steadily to meet established growth targets and maintain an optimum equity structure to reduce equity cost.

In conformity with other sector groups, the Group controls its financing structure based on the leverage ratio. This ratio is calculated as net financial borrowings divided by total equity and net borrowings. Net financial borrowings are determined as the sum of financial debt, institutional equity liabilities corrected for non-current deferred revenues, less cash and cash equivalents.

Main features of the tax systems of the countries in which the EDP Renewables Group operates

The statutory corporate income tax rates applicable in the countries in which EDP Renewables Group operates are as follows:

COUNTRY	31 DEC 2015	31 DEC 2014
Europe:
Belgium	39,99%	39,99%
France	33,33% - 34,43%	33,33% - 34,43%

America:
Brazil	34%	34%
Canada	26,50%	26,50%
Mexico	30%	30%
United States of America	38,2%	38,2%

EDP Renováveis S.A. and its subsidiaries file individual tax returns in accordance with the applicable tax legislation. Nevertheless, the company and the majority of its Spanish subsidiaries in Spain are taxed under the tax consolidation group regime applicable according to the Spanish law. EDP - Energias de Portugal, S.A. - Sucursal en España (Branch) is the dominant company of this Group which includes other subsidiaries that are not within the renewables energy industry.

As per the currently applicable tax legislation, tax periods may be subject to examination by the various Tax Administrations during a limited number of years. Statutes of limitation differ from country to country, as follows: USA, Belgium and France: 3 years; Spain, United Kingdom, Italy and Portugal: 4 years or, in the case of Portugal, if tax losses/credits have been used, the number of years that such tax losses/credits may be carry forward; Brazil, Romania, Poland, Italy and Mexico: 5 years; and Canada: 10 years.

Tax losses generated in each year are also subject to Tax Administrations' review and reassessment. Losses may be used to offset yearly taxable income assessed in the subsequent periods, as follows: 5 years in Poland; 7 in Romania; 10 in Mexico; 12 in Portugal; 20 in the USA and Canada; and indefinitely in Spain, France, Italy, Belgium, Brazil and the United Kingdom. Moreover, in the United Kingdom tax losses may be carried back to the previous tax year and in the USA and Canada to the 2 and 3 previous years, respectively. However, the deduction of tax losses in Portugal, Spain, Brazil, France, Italy and Poland may be limited to a percentage of the taxable income of each period.

EDP Renewables Group companies may, in accordance with the law, benefit from certain tax benefits or incentives in specific conditions, namely the Production Tax Credits in the US which are the dominant form of wind remuneration in that country, and represent an extra source of revenue per unit of electricity (\$23/MWh in 2015 and 2014), over the first 10 years of the asset's life.

EDP Renewables Group transfer pricing policy is in line with the rules, guidelines and best international practices applicable across all geographies where the Group operates, in due compliance with the spirit and letter of the Law.

EDPR EU Group

During 2015, EDPR EU Group mainly presents a decrease in goodwill movement in the amount of 2,000 thousands of Euros and an increase in the amount of 2,499 thousands of Euros that are principally related to the contingent price revision related to the purchase agreements of three projects in EDPR Spain and several projects in EDPR Poland, respectively.

The decrease in goodwill movement in EDPR EU Group in the year 2014 is related with the cancellation of the success fee associated to a project in EDPR France.

Transactions related to movements in goodwill disclosed above were made before 1 January 2010, date of the adoption of the revised IFRS 3, therefore have been accounted for as described in the accounting policy 2 b.

Goodwill impairment tests - EDPR Group

The goodwill of the EDPR Group is tested for impairment each year with basis of September. In the case of operational wind farms, it is performed by determining the recoverable value through the value in use. Goodwill is allocated to each country where EDPR Group performs its activity, so the EDPR Group aggregate all the CGUs cash flows in each country in order to calculate the recoverable amount of goodwill allocated.

To perform this analysis, a Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) method was used. This method is based on the principle that the estimated value of an entity or business is defined by its capacity to generate financial resources in the future, assuming these can be removed from the business and distributed among the company's shareholders, without compromising the maintenance of the activity.

Therefore, for the businesses developed by EDPR's CGUs, the valuation was based on free cash flows generated by the business, discounted at appropriate discount rates.

The future cash flows projection period used is the useful life of the assets (25 years) which is consistent with the current depreciation method. The cash flows also incorporate the long-term off-take contract in place and longterm estimates of power prices, whenever the asset holds merchant exposure.

The main assumptions used for the impairment tests are as follows:

Power produced: net capacity factors used for each CGU utilize the wind studies carried out, which takes into account the long-term predictability of wind output and that wind generation is supported in nearly all countries by regulatory mechanisms that allow for production and priority dispatching whenever weather conditions permit;
Electricity remuneration: regulated or contracted remuneration has been applied where available, as for the CGUs that benefit from regulated remuneration or that have signed contracts to sell their output during all or part of their useful life; where this is not available, prices were derived using price curves projected by the company based on its experience, internal models and using external data references;
New capacity: tests were based on the best information available on the wind farms expected to be built in coming years, adjusted by probability of success and by the growth prospects of the company based on the Business Plan Targets, its historical growth and market size projections. The tests considered the contracted and expected prices to buy turbines from various suppliers;
Operating costs: established contracts for land leases and maintenance agreements were used; other operating costs were projected consistent with the company's experience and internal models;
Terminal value: considered as a 15% of the initial investment in each wind farm, considering inflation;
Discount rate: the discount rates used are post-tax, reflect EDPR Group's best estimate of the risks specific to each CGU and range as follows:

THOUSANDS OF EUROS

Europe	3.8% - 6.0%	4.0% - 6.4%
North America	4.5% - 6.6%	5.1% - 7.1%
Brazil	9.6% - 11.7%	8.6% - 10.3%

Impairment tests done have taken into account the regulation changes in each country, as disclosed in note 1.

EDPR has performed the following sensitivity analyses in the results of impairment tests performed in Europe, North America and Brazil in some of the key variables, such as:

5% reduction of Merchant Prices used in the base case. This sensitivity analysis performed for this assumption independently would not suppose any impairment for the goodwill allocated to each country, except for Romania amounting to 9,392 thousands of Euros.
100 basis points increase of the discount rate used in the base case. This sensitivity analysis performed for this assumption independently would not suppose any impairment for the goodwill allocated to each country, except for Romania amounting to 9,392 thousands of Euros.

Additional paid in capital

The accounting for transactions among entities under common control is excluded from IFRS 3. Consequently, in the absence of specific guidance, within IFRSs, the Group EDPR has adopted an accounting policy for such transactions, judged appropriate. According to the Group's policy, business combinations among entities under common control are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the book values of the acquired company (subgroup) in the EDPR consolidated financial statements. The difference between the carrying amount of the net assets received and the consideration paid is recognised in equity.

Legal reserve

The legal reserve has been appropriated in accordance with Article 274 of the Spanish Companies Act whereby companies are obliged to transfer 10% of the profits for the year to a legal reserve until such reserve reaches an amount equal to 20% of the share capital. This reserve is not distributable to shareholders and may only be used to offset losses, if no other reserves are available, or to increase the share capital.

Taking into account the EDPR Group external debt profile as well as the favourable interest rate market conditions, EDPR Group has entered into several negotiation processes with different counterparties aiming to improve the average cost of debt, adjusting the debt service profile to the company updated cash flow forecast. The main transactions performed throughout the year are as following:

1) Three long term loans with EDPR Group were restructured for a total amount of 1,209,000 thousands of Euros, improving the average life of long term debt provided by EDP and the average cost;

2) Three Spanish project finance for a total amount of 155,367 thousands of Euros were restructured in order to adjust the Debt Service Schedule to the Updated Cash Flow profile, also improving the average cost of debt;

3) Two Spanish project finance and one Romanian project finance for a total amount of 42,496 thousands of Euros were early amortized in order to optimize excess cash allocation as well as improve the average cost of debt; and

4) Three new project finance for projects in Poland, Belgium and Brazil have been arranged for a total amount around 122,943 thousand of euros equivalent, taking advantage of the completive conditions and/or as part of EDPR Group financing strategy for forex exposure.

As of 31 December 2014, the fair value and maturity of derivatives is analysed as follows:

The fair value of derivative financial instruments is recorded under other debtors and other assets (note 23) or other liabilities and other payables (note 34), if the fair value is positive or negative, respectively.

The net investment derivatives are related to the Group CIRS in USD and EUR with EDP Branch as referred in the notes 38 and 39. The net investment derivatives also include Currency forwards in CAD and CIRS in PLN and BRL with EDP with the purpose of hedging EDPR Group's operations in Canada, Poland and Brazil.

Interest rate swaps relate to the project finances and have been formalised to convert variable to fixed interest rates.

Cash flow hedge power price swaps are related to the hedging of the sales price. EDPR NA has entered into a power price swap to hedge the variability in the spot market prices received for a portion of the production of Maple Ridge I project. Additionally, both EDPR NA and EDPR EU have entered in short term hedges to hedge the short-term volatility of certain un-contracted generation of its wind farms.

In certain U.S. power markets, EDPR NA is exposed to congestion and line loss risks, which typically have a negative impact on the price received for power generated in these markets. To economically hedge these risk exposures, EDPR NA entered into Financial Transmission Rights ("FTR") and a three year fixed for floating Locational Marginal Price (LMP) swap.

The trading derivative financial instruments are derivatives contracted for economic hedging that are not eligible for hedge accounting. These include a USD/EUR forward contract with EDP Servicios Financieros used to mitigate the exchange rate risk arising from the net assets in USD, as a complement of the net investment hedge.

Fair value of derivative financial instruments is based on quotes indicated by external entities. These entities use discounted cash flows techniques usually accepted and data from public markets. The only exceptions are the CIRS in USD/EUR with EDP Branch and the USD/EUR forward contract with EDP Servicios Financieros, which fair values are determined by the Financial Department of EDP, using the same above-mentioned discounted cash flows techniques and data. As such, according to IFRS13 requirements, the fair value of the derivative financial instruments is classified as of Level 2 (note 39), and the fair value of the CIRS in USD/EUR with EDP Branch and the USD/EUR forward contract with EDP Servicios Financieros is classified as of Level 3 (note 39).

The changes in the fair value of hedging instruments and risks being hedged are as follows:

			31 DEC 2015		31 DEC 2014
			CHANGES IN FAIR VALUE		CHANGES IN FAIR VALUE
			INSTRUMENT	RISK	INSTRUMENT	RISK

At each reporting date, this CIRS is revalued to its market value, which corresponds to a spot foreign exchange revaluation, resulting in a perfect hedge (revaluation of the investment in EPDR NA and of the USD external financing). As at 31 December 2015, the amount payable by EDP Renováveis to EDP Branch related to this CIRS amounts to 589,036 thousands of Euros (31 December 2014: 342,231 thousands of Euros) (see notes 33 and 35).

Transactions with related parties for the year ended 31 December 2015 are analysed as follows:

As part of its operational activities, the EDP Renováveis Group must present guarantees in favour of certain suppliers and in connection with renewable energy contracts. As at 31 December 2015, EDP, S.A., Energias do Brasil and Hidrocantábrico granted financial (40,019 thousands of Euros, 31 December 2014: 42,158 thousands of Euros) and operational (293,314 thousands of Euros, 31 December 2014: 282,883 thousands of Euros) guarantees to suppliers in favour of EDPR EU and EDPR NA. The operational guarantees are issued following the commitments assumed by EDPR EU and EDPR NA in relation to the acquisition of property, plant and equipment, supply agreements, turbines and energy contracts (power purchase agreements) (see note 37). In the normal course of its activity, the EDPR Group performs business transactions and operations with its related parties based on normal market conditions.

39. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Fair value of financial instruments is based, whenever available, on quoted market prices. Otherwise, fair value is determined through internal models, which are based on generally accepted cash flow discounting techniques and option valuation models or through quotations supplied by third parties.

Non-standard instruments may require alternative techniques, which consider their characteristics and the generally accepted market practices applicable to such instruments. These models are developed considering the market variables that affect the underlying instrument, namely yield curves, exchange rates and volatility factors.

Market data is obtained from generally accepted suppliers of financial data (Bloomberg and Reuters).

As at 31 December 2015 and 2014, the following table presents the interest rate curves of the major currencies to which the Group is exposed. These interest rates were used as the base for the fair value calculations made through internal models referred above:

	31 DEC 2015		31 DEC 2014
	CURRENCIES		CURRENCIES
	EUR	USD	EUR	USD
3 months	-0,13%	0,61%	0.08%	0.26%
6 months	-0,04%	0,85%	0.17%	0.36%
9 months	0,00%	1,01%	0.25%	0.50%
1 year	0,06%	1,18%	0.33%	0.63%
2 years	-0,03%	1,18%	0.18%	0.90%

7 years	0,33%	1,74%	0.53%	2.05%
10 years	0,48%	1,85%	0.81%	2.28%

Non-listed equity instruments, for which a reliable and consistent fair value estimate is not available either by internal models or external providers, are recognized at their historical cost.

Available-for-sale financial instruments and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Listed financial instruments are recognized at fair value based on market prices. The financial instruments for which reliable fair value estimates are not available, are recorded in the statement of financial position at their cost.

Cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and suppliers

These financial instruments include mainly short term financial assets and liabilities. Given their short term nature at the reporting date, their book values are not significantly different from their fair values.

Financial debt

The fair value of the financial debt is estimated through internal models, which are based on generally accepted cash flow discounting techniques. At the reporting date, the carrying amount of floating rate loans is approximately their fair value. In case of fixed rate loans, mainly the intercompany loans granted by EDP Group, their fair value is obtained through internal models based on generally accepted discounting techniques.

Derivative financial instruments

All derivatives are accounted at their fair value. For those which are quoted in organized markets, the respective market price is used. For over-the-counter derivatives, fair value is estimated through the use of internal models based on cash flow discounting techniques and option valuation models generally accepted by the market, or by dealer price quotations.

CIRS with EDP Branch (note 36)

With the purpose of hedging the foreign exchange risk resulting from the net investment in EDPR NA, the Group entered into a CIRS in USD and EUR with EDP Branch. This financial derivative is presented in the statement of financial position at its fair value, which is estimated by discounting the projected USD and EUR cash flows. The discount rates and forward interest rates were based on the interest rate curves referred to above and the USD/EUR exchange rate is disclosed on note 28. See also notes 13 and 23.

The fair values of assets and liabilities as at 31 December 2015 and 31 December 2014 are analysed as follows:

40. RELEVANT AND SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

EDPR informs about wind offshore projects in the UK

In July 2015, EDPR through its subsidiary EDPR UK Limited, reached agreements with Repsol Nuevas Energías S.A. ("Repsol") by which, under the terms of the contracts, EDPR agreed to buy from Repsol 33% equity interest in Moray offshore project, and to sell to Repsol 49% equity interest in Inch Cape offshore project.

With the closing of these transactions in January 2016, EDPR fully owns the Moray offshore project, while Repsol fully own the Inch Cape offshore project. Both projects are located in the UK.

In January 2010, Moray Offshore Renewable Limited was awarded the right, under a farm leasing programme conducted by The Crown Estate, to develop offshore wind energy in Zone 1 of the Third Offshore Wind Licensing Round ("UK Round 3") and in March 2014 was granted consent, by the Scottish government, for up to 1,116 MW offshore wind development. The project may be divided in several phases, to allow a proper bidding strategy in the CfD allocation rounds.

EDPR informs about an agreement with CTG regarding wind offshore projects in the UK

In October 2015, EDPR, through its subsidiary EDPR UK Limited, entered in an Investment Cooperation Agreement with China Three Gorges (Europe) S.A., by which CTG proposes to invest in and develop the Moray wind offshore project, located in the North Sea off the coast of Scotland (Zone 1 of the Crown Estate's Round 3 programme), alongside with EDPR and other potential investors.

Pursuant to the agreement, CTG intends to acquire up to 30% of the equity and shareholder loans directly or indirectly owned by EDPR in the Moray Offshore Renewable Limited in order to participate in the investment, development and operation of the Moray wind offshore project.

The transaction is expected to occur in two phases, with CTG investing between 10% to 20% following the announcement of a new Contract for Difference ("CfD") auction allocation round, and an additional investment of up to 10% subject to MORL be successfully award with a CfD.

The transaction is subject to regulatory and third party approvals and other precedent conditions.

EDPR announces the sale of minority stakes in Poland and Italy

In December 2015, EDPR, through its subsidiary EDP Renewables Europe, S.L. entered into an agreement with ACE Poland S.A.R.L. and ACE Italy S.A.R.L., both of which 100% owned by ACE Investment Fund LP – an entity participated of China Three Gorges Hong Kong Ltd ("CTG HK"), a fully-owned subsidiary of China Three Gorges ("CTG") – to sell 49% of equity shareholding and shareholder loans in a portfolio of wind assets with 598 MW of capacity in Poland and Italy, for a total consideration of €392 million.

The transaction scope covers 392 MW in operation in Poland and 100 MW in Italy, with an average age of 4 years, as well as 107 MW under construction in Poland and in Italy.

The transaction is subject to the customary regulatory and other approvals and is expected to be completed within the first half of 2016.

The agreement reached today is made in the context of the €2bn strategic partnership established in Dec-11 between EDPR's principal shareholder, EDP – Energias de Portugal, S.A., and CTG.

EDP Renováveis signs agreement to acquire licenses for 216 MW of wind energy in Portugal

On 7 October 2015, EDP Renováveis S.A. (EDPR), 77.5% controlled by EDP, informed that it has reached an agreement with Ventinveste S.A. (Ventinveste), a consortium led by Galp Energia, SGPS, S.A. and Martifer, SGPS, S.A., for the acquisition of a group of special purpose vehicles (SPVs) that hold licenses and interconnection rights corresponding to a total of 216.4 MW of wind energy capacity in Portugal, for a reference price of approximaly 17 millions of Euros.

This wind energy capacity was awarded with a long-term feed-in tariff in 2007, under the Phase B of a tender launched by the Portuguese Government. Following the agreement reached between the Portuguese Government and several operators in the wind energy sector in September 2012, the 216.4 MW will be remunerated according to a feed in-tariff for a 20-year period (or a maximum of 44 GWh/MW).

With this transaction EDPR intends to maximize the value created from projects since the early stages of development by applying its distinctive technical and wind assessment know-how. The commissioning and beginning of operations of EDPR's new wind farms is expected to occur until 2018.

EDPR executes a new asset rotation transaction in the US

During the last quarter of 2015, EDP Renovaveis S.A., reached an agreement with a consortium of investors led by Axium Infrastructure (Axium), to sell a minority cash equity interest in a US wind portfolio with a total production capacity of 1,002 MW. Axium's interest in the portfolio will represent 340MW and is the third asset rotation transaction announced by EDPR with Axium, further strengthening the existing partnership.

The portfolio is comprised of 6 operating wind farms. All of the wind farms have long-term offtake agreements in place.

Based on the i) the transaction price and ii) the outstanding and expected tax equity liabilities of the projects, the total enterprise value on the 340 MW portfolio amounts to US 590 million translating to 1.7 million of US dollar/MW

Fiera Axium funded \$307.5 million in January 2016 after all assets involved had achieved commercial operations.

EDPR informs about new institutional partnerships structures in the US

In October 2015, EDPR has secured \$238 million of institutional equity financing from an affiliate of Google Inc. , in exchange for an interest in the 199 MW Waverly wind project located in the State of Kansas, US. The project, currently under-construction, will sell its output through a 20-year Power Purchase Agreement.

Under the agreement, Google will invest its funds close to the project's start of operations, which is scheduled to occur by the end of 2015. This institutional partnership structure is EDPR's largest one with just one underlying project,

In November 2015, EDPR has secured \$116 million of institutional equity financing from MUFG Union Bank N.A. and another leading institutional investor, in exchange for an interest in the 100 MW Arbuckle wind project, located in the State of Oklahoma. The project will sell its output through a 20-year Power Purchase Agreement.

The establishment of institutional partnership structures enables EDPR to efficiently utilize the tax benefits generated by the projects, improving the project's economics and maintaining its self-funding strategic pillar.

EDPR secures new PPAs for 100 MW wind farm in the US

In December 2015, EDPR, through its fully owned subsidiary EDP Renewable North America LLC, signed longterm Power Purchase Agreements ("PPAs") with commercial and industrial corporations, to sell the energy produced by 100 MW from Hidalgo wind farm extension.

Hidalgo wind farm project had initially secured two PPAs totalling 150 MW, as announced in Apr-2014. The project, that will now total 250 MW, is located in the State of Texas and is expected to be installed in 2016.

EDPR is awarded long-term contract for 140 MW at Brazilian energy auction

In November 2015, EDPR, through its subsidiary EDP Renováveis Brasil, S.A., secured a 20-year Power Purchase Agreements ("PPA") at the Brazilian energy LER 2015 auction to sell electricity in the regulated market. The energy will be produced by a 140 MW wind farm to be installed in the Brazilian State of Bahia with operations expected for 2018. The initial price of the long term contract was set at R\$199.37/MWh, indexed to the Brazilian inflation rate.

With this new contract, EDPR has already secured PPAs for 377 MW of wind energy projects in Brazil (currently under construction/development) to start operations in 2016, 2017 and 2018.

The successful outcome from this auction reinforces EDPR presence in a market with a low risk profile through the establishment of long term PPA, attractive wind resource and strong prospects for the wind sector in the medium and long term.

EDP Renováveis awarded with 93 MW in the Spanish renewable energy auction

In January 2016, EDPR was awarded with rights for the pre-registry of 93 MW of wind energy capacity in Spain.

Following the outcome of the auction, the awarded capacity will be remunerated according with the Spanish wholesale market and could be installed until 2020. EDPR has already identified, within its pipeline, specific competitive projects with high load factors that could be allocated to this awarded capacity.

41. RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS USED

Standards, amendments and interpretations issued effective for the Group

The new interpretation that has been issued and is already effective and that the EDPR Group has applied on its consolidated financial statements is the following:

• IFRIC 21 - Levies

The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued, in May 2013, IFRIC 21 - Levies, with effective date of mandatory application for periods beginning on or after 17 June 2014, being allowed its early adoption.

This interpretation clarifies that:

a levy is an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits that is imposed by governments on entities, in accordance with legislation;
the recognition of the liability corresponds to the payment of a levy that results from the activity that triggers the payment of the levy, as identified by the legislation (obligating event).

The adoption of this interpretation does not impact the amounts presented on the annual consolidated financial statements, but only the amounts that were presented on the condensed consolidated financial statements of 2015.

The Group has performed an assessment on the impacts of the adoption of this interpretation concluding that the adoption of this Standard does not affect the figures presented in the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements, but rather, only those published on an interim basis. As a consequence, no restatement is applicable for the Annual Consolidated Statement of 2015.

The new standards and interpretations that have been issued and are already effective and that the Group has applied on its consolidated financial statements with no significant impact are the following:

• Annual Improvement Project (2011-2013)

Standards, amendments and interpretations issued but not yet effective for the Group

The standards, amendments and interpretations issued but not yet effective for the Group, which impact is being evaluated, are the following:

ł IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments

The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), issued in November 2009, IFRS 9 - Financial instruments part I: Classification and measurement, with effective date of mandatory application for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, being allowed its early adoption. This standard, changed in July 2014, has not yet been adopted by the European Union.

This standard is included in the IASB's comprehensive project to replace IAS 39 and relates to issues of classification and measurement of financial assets. The main issues considered are as follows:

the financial assets can be classified in two categories: at amortised cost or at fair value. This decision will be made upon the initial recognition of the financial assets. Its classification depends on how the entity presents these financial assets and the contractual cash flows associated to each financial asset in the business;
debt instruments can only be measured at amortised cost when the contractual cash-flows represent only principal and interest payments, which means that it contains only basic loan features, and for which an entity holds the asset to collect the contractual cash flows. All the other debt instruments are recognised at fair value;
equity instruments issued by third parties are recognised at fair value with subsequent changes recognised in the profit and loss. However an entity could irrevocably select equity instruments at initial recognition for which fair value changes and the realised gain or loss are recognised in fair value reserves. Gains and losses recognised in fair value reserves cannot be recycled to profit and loss. This is a discretionary decision, and does not imply that all the equity instruments should be treated on this basis. The dividends received are recognised as income for the year;
the exemption that allows unquoted equity investments and related derivatives to be measured at cost, under IAS 39, is not allowed under IFRS 9; and
changes in fair value attributable to own credit risk of financial liabilities classified as fair value through profit or loss, shall be recognised in Other comprehensive income. The remaining fair value changes related to these financial liabilities shall be recognised through profit or loss. The amounts recognised in Other comprehensive income shall not be reclassified/transferred to profit and loss.

ł IFRS 11 (Amended) - Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations

The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), issued in May 2014, IFRS 11 (Amended) - Accounting for acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations, with effective date of mandatory application for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, being allowed its early adoption.

This amendment introduces guidance on accounting that should be made in the acquisition of participation in joint operations that qualifies as a business, by applying the principles of IFRS 3 - Business Combinations.

ł IFRS 15 - Revenue from the Contracts with Customers

The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), issued in May 2014, IFRS 15 - Revenue from the Contracts with Customers, with effective date of mandatory application for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, being allowed its early adoption. This standard has not yet been adopted by the European Union.

This new standard presents the principles that shall be applied by an entity in order to provide more useful information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, term and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from a contract with a client.

The core principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity recognises revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services, as provided in the 5 steps methodology.

The 5 steps methodology consists in the following steps: (i) identify the contract with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations; and (v) recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

ł IFRS 16 – Leases

The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued, in January 2016, IFRS 16 - Leases, with effective date of mandatory application for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019, with earlier adoption permitted for entities that have also adopted IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This standard has not yet been adopted by the European Union.

This standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases, and supersedes IAS 17 - Leases and its associated interpretative guidance. The objective is to ensure that lessees and lessors provide relevant information to the users of financial statements, namely about the effect that leases have on the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the entity.

The main issues considered are as follows:

inclusion of some considerations in order to distinguish leases from service contracts, based on the existence of control of the underlying asset at the time that it is available for use by the lessee; and
introduction of a single lessee accounting model that requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. A lessee is required to recognise a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. As a consequence, a lessee recognises depreciation costs and interest costs separately.

ł IAS 1 (Amended) - Disclosure Initiative

Amendments to the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), issued in December 2014, IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements, with effective date of mandatory application for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, being allowed its early adoption. This amendment has not yet been adopted by the European Union.

The following narrow scope amendments have been made to IAS1:

Materiality and aggregation: clarifies that an entity should not obscure useful information by aggregating our disaggregating information; and that materiality considerations apply to the primary statements, notes and any specific disclosure requirements in IFRSs, i.e. disclosures specifically required by IFRSs need to be provided only if the information is material;
Statement of Financial Position and Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income: clarifies that the list of line items specified by IAS 1 for these statements can be disaggregated as relevant. Additional guidance has been on the presentation of subtotals in these statements;
Presentation of items of Other Comprehensive Income ("OCI"): clarifies that an entity's share of OCI of equity-accounted a in associates and joint ventures should be presented in aggregate as single line items based on whether or not it will subsequently be reclassified to profit or loss;
Notes: clarifies that entities have the flexibility when designing the structure of the notes and provides guidance on how to determine a systematic order of the notes.
x IAS 7 (Amended) Disclosure Initiative

The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued, in January 2016, amendments to IAS 7 - Statement of Cash Flows, with effective date of mandatory application for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017, being allowed its early adoption.

These amendments require an entity to provide disclosures that enable users of financial statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows and noncash changes, such as:

Changes from financing cash flows;
Changes arising from obtaining or losing control of subsidiaries or other businesses;
The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates; or
Changes in fair values.

These disclosures may be presented by providing a reconciliation between the opening and closing balances in the statement of financial position for liabilities arising from financing activities.

The standards, amendments and interpretations issued but not yet effective for the Group with no significant impact are the following:

ł IFRS 10 (Amended) and IAS 28 (Amended) - Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture

ł IFRS 10 (Amended), IFRS 12 (Amended) and IAS 28 (Amended) - Investment Entities: Applying the Consolidation Exception

ł IFRS 14 - Regulatory Deferral Accounts

ł IAS 16 (Amended) and IAS 38 (Amended) - Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation

ł Annual Improvement Project (2010-2012)
ł Annual Improvement Project (2012-2014)

42. ENVIRONMENT ISSUES

Expenses of environmental nature are the expenses that were identified and incurred to avoid, reduce or repair damages of an environmental nature that result from the Group's normal activity.

These expenses are booked in the income statement of the year, except if they qualify to be recognised as an asset, according to IAS 16.

During the year, the environmental expenses recognised in the income statement in the amount of 3,467 thousands of Euros (31 December 2014: 2,849 thousands of Euros) refer to costs with the environmental management plan.

As referred in accounting policy 2o), the Group has established provisions for dismantling and decommissioning of property, plant and equipment when a legal or contractual obligation exists to dismantle and decommission those assets at the end of their useful lives. Consequently, the Group has booked provisions for property, plant and equipment related to electricity wind generation for the responsibilities of restoring sites and land to its original condition, in the amount of 117,228 thousands of Euros as at 31 December 2015 (31 December 2014: 96,676 thousands of Euros) (see note 31).

In 2006, EDPR Group (through its subsidiary EDP Renováveis Portugal) entered into a joint business with Generg, Finerge (together with EDPR the "Wind Promoters") and Enercom to develop 1,200 Mw of renewable energy in Portugal. At that moment it was agreed that at the time that all the assets would be in production, the "Consortium" (ENEOP) would be splited once the pertinent authorities would authorize it.

The consortium (ENEOP), through two different subsidiaries fully held by ENEOP, carried the following two activities connected with the industrial and wind farm project:

ENEOP 2: construction, maintenance and exploitation of the wind farms;
ENEOP 3: construction and exploitation of the industrial part of the project.

It was agreed that the split will be performed on three steps:

ł Merger of Eneop 2 and Eneop;

ł Demerger of ENEOP, with its dissolution, and incorporation of 4 NewCos (that issue shares to all the shareholders of ENEOP on a proportional basis), to which each one of the respective portfolios of wind farm SPVs and ENEOP 3 are transferred; and

ł Cross-sell disposal of the investment in the NewCos between the wind promoters and Enercon, such that each owns 100% of the respective portfolio of wind farm SPVs (in respect to the WPs) and ENEOP 3 (regarding Enercon).

On September 19th, even though the above transactions were not yet been legally performed, all the conditions needed for the asset split to be performed were obtained, namely, the approval and authorisation of the competition authority (AdC), Direção Geral de Energia e Geologia (DGEG) and banks (BEI and commercial banks). This, together with the shareholders agreement signed between the wind promoters and the change of the corporate bodies of the SPVs, gave EDPR the effective control over the agreed EDPR portfolio, as the pending issues to be closed for the legal Asset Split to take place were not relevant in terms of control assesment.

For simplification purposes, and considering this does not have a material effect, the Group used the financial statements as at 31st of August, 2015, of the twelve companies, to determine pre-acquisition results and, consequently, these companies have been fully consolidated from the 1st of September, 2015.

As of 31st December 2015 all the transactions have been legally closed so that the Asset Split process is legally finished.

Since the date of acquisition of full control over this portfolio, it has contributed to the consolidated financial statements with Revenues from energy sales in the amount of 33,917 thousands of Euros and with a Net profit for the period (attributable to Equity holders of EDPR) in the amount of 4,148 thousands of Euros. If this acquisition had occurred in the beginning of the exercise, it would have contributed to the consolidated financial statements with Revenues from energy sales in the amount of 102,698 thousands of Euros and with a Net profit for the period (attributable to Equity holders of EDPR) in the amount of 11,777 thousands of Euros, referring to the twelve-month period ended at 31 December 2015. Until the date in which the control was obtained, the shareholding previously held was being included in the consolidated financial statements under the equity method, therefore the result was incorporated under this method until this date in the amount of 5,986 thousands of Euros.

At the acquisition date, EDPR Group has determined the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on a valuation performed by an independent third party. This valuation, which was based on the discounted cashflow method, came to an equity fair value of the portfolio in which EDPR takes control in the amount of 230,791 thousands of Euros . Fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities at the acquisition date is presented as follows:

Acquisition cashflow:
Cash and cash equivalents of Eneop			99,147

The cash compensation was paid at the legal asset split transaction.

The above mentioned Eneop's valuation has determined a fair value for Property, plant and equipment in the amount of 844,163 thousand Euros, based on discounted cash-flows method, generating a fair value adjustment of 249,671 thousand Euros and a corresponding deferred tax liability in the amount of 55,519 thousand Euros (see note 15 and 19).

Net cash outflow 48,650

As EDPR Group had already a 35,95% stake in Eneop, this transaction was treated as a step acquisition under IFRS 3. Consequently, the previously held investment in Eneop was remeasured to fair value, and the corresponding difference for its book value, was recorded under Other income (see note 8). The total impact of the transaction gain also include the transfer to results of cash flow hedge reserves previously recognised under Other comprehensive income at EDPR level, in the amount of 11,955 thousand Euros.

Acquisition-related costs were expensed and are recognised under Supplies and services, in the amount of 837 thousands of Euros.

44. OPERATING SEGMENTS REPORT

The Group generates energy from renewable resources and has three reportable segments which are the Group's business platforms, Europe, North America and Brazil. The strategic business units have operations in different geographic zones and are managed separately because their characteristics are quite different. For each of the strategic business units, the Group's CEO reviews internal management reports on at least a quarterly basis.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as described in note 3. Information regarding the results of each reportable segment is included in Annex 2. Performance is based on segment operating profit measures, as included in the internal management reports that are reviewed by the Management. Segment operating profit is used to measure performance as management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of certain segments relative to other entities that operate within these industries. Inter-segment pricing is determined on an arm's length basis.

A business segment is an identifiable component of the Group, aimed at providing a single product or service, or a group of related products or services, and it is subject to risks and returns that can be distinguished from those of other business segments.

The Group generates energy from renewable sources in several locations and its activity is managed based on the following business segments:

ł Europe: refers to EDPR EU Group companies operating in Spain, Portugal, Belgium, France, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Romania and United Kingdom;
ł North America: refers to EDPR NA and EDPR Canada Group companies that operate in United States of America and Canada, respectively;
ł Brazil: refers to EDPR Brasil Group companies that operate in this country.

Segment definition

The amounts reported in each business segment result from the aggregation of the subsidiaries and business units defined in each segment perimeter, including the intra-segment eliminations, without any inter-segment allocation adjustment.

The financial information disclosed by each business segment is determined based on the amounts booked directly in the subsidiaries that compose the segment, including the intra-segment eliminations, without any inter-segment allocation adjustment.

Remuneration Policy

EDPR governance model is reinforced by an incentive structure with transparent remuneration through variable remuneration based on key performance indicators.

3.3. ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE

EDPR is organized around three main elements: a corporate Holding and two platforms that group all the business units where the company has presence.

ORGANIZATIONAL MODEL PRINCIPLES

The model is designed with several principles in mind to ensure optimal efficiency and value creation.

Accountability alignment	Critical KPIs and span of control are aligned at project, country, platform and holding level to ensure accountability tracking and to take advantage of complementarities derived from end-to-end process vision.
Client-service	Corporate areas function as competence support centers and are internal service providers to all business units for all geographical non-specific needs. Business priorities and needs are defined by local businesses and best practices are defined and distributed by corporate units.
Lean organization	Execution of activities at holding level are held only when significant value is derived, coherently with defined EDPR holding role.
Collegial decision making	Ensures proper counter-balance dynamics to ensure multiple-perspective challenge across functions.
Clear and transparent	Platforms organizational models remain similar to allow for: - Easy coordination, vertically (holding-platforms) and horizontally (across platforms);

EDPR HOLDING ROLE

Scalability and replicability to ensure efficient integration of future growth.

The EDPR Holding structure was designed to accomplish two fundamental roles: Strategic Management and Transversal Operation.

INTEGRITY AND ETHICS

GOVERNANCE MODEL FOR ETHICS

HOW DO WE APPLY OUR CODE OF ETHICS?

Identify an alleged violation of the code of ethics	Reports of alleged violations of the Code of Ethics must be submitted to the Ethics Ombudsman, indicating personal data and a detailed description of the situation.
Ombudsman performs a summary investigation	Ethics Ombudsman first confirms the events reported and submits a preliminary report on the initial confirmations to the Ethics Committee.
Ethics Committee decides if the complaint portrays a violation	Ethics Committee analyses every situation reported and decides as to whether it should be classified as a violation of the Code of Ethics.
When a violation is confirmed, the Committee opens an investigation	When conducting an investigation, the Company shall abide by the law and its own in-house rules. After the investigation is complete, the Committee decides whether any corrective or disciplinary action is required.

ETHICS PROGRAM

ANTI-CORRUPTION REGULATION

EMPLOYEE RELATIONS

EDPR is committed to respect freedom of trade union association and recognises the right to collective bargaining.

A full description of the Ethics governance model can be found in the Corporate Governance Report

ROAD TO PARIS AGREEMENT

In 2009, countries failed to extend the Kyoto Protocol, but they managed to recognize the common objective of keeping global temperature increase below 2°C.

In the run-up of the Paris Conference, 186 countries submitted their commitment to fight climate change (INDCs), with GHG reductions targets for 2025-2030.

The submitted INDCs showed that pledges would still result in a global warming between 2.4°C and 2.7°C, therefore, above the 2°C threshold.

KEY ELEMENTS OF PARIS AGREEMENT

195 countries participated in an agreement that reflects a "hybrid" approach, blending a top-down rules-based system and a bottom-up system of voluntary pledges to provide flexibility.
Keeping average warming below 2°C was reaffirmed as the common goal, with some parties that should make efforts to limit it to 1,5 °C.
Aims to peak GHG emissions as soon as possible, and to achieve "balance" between emissions and sinks in the second half of the century.
Sets mechanisms to rise targets periodically, since submitted INDCs don't seem to be enough. Every country is bound to submit a new Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) every 5 years, being each NDC progressively more ambitions than the previous one. However, NDCs are not binding.
Places a legal obligation on developed countries to provide climate finance to developing countries, including a provision, stating prior to 2025, where countries should agree a "new collective quantified goal" from the floor of US\$ 100 bn per year
The Agreement is a treaty under international law, although not every provisions are legally binding.

WIND EFFECT IN SPAIN POOL PRICE

C. RENEWABLES ARE FEASIBLE AND ECONOMICALLY VIABLE

Onshore wind is the least expensive in many regions of the world, mainly due to the drop in wind turbines prices (almost a third in the last 6 years). Its increasingly competitiveness is therefore expected to drive future deployment. Bloomberg expects wind capacity worldwide to reach more than 2,000 GW in 2040 (compared to ~370 GW at the end of 2014).
Solar PV has also experienced dramatic costs reductions that have boost its competitiveness. Solar PV modules prices have dropped 75% since 2009, and this trend is expected to continue. According to Bloomberg, solar PV is expected to dominate new build around the world with almost 5,000 GW of installed capacity by 2040 (from 177 GW in 2014YE).

D. THE COSTS OF ADDRESSING CLIMATE CHANGE MAY BE LOWER THAN THE COSTS ASSOCIATED TO INACTION

Therefore, from an economic perspective, the transition towards a low-carbon economy would have positive effects, not only in aggregate terms, but even in the energy sector.

YES TO WIND POWER

THE SUCCESSFUL "YES TO WIND POWER" CAMPAIGN WAS LAUNCHED IN SPAIN IN EARLY 2015, AND WILL BE ROLLED OUT TO SEVERAL OTHER MARKETS IN 2016 SUCH AS POLAND, ROMANIA AND ITALY.

CAMPAIGN OBJECTIVES:

The end goal of the campaign is to create more advocates for renewables, and increase societal support for the continued development of wind power and other renewable methods of energy generation.

CAMPAIGN MEDIA:

CAMPAIGN'S REACH:

1,235,989 hits

1.3. SUPPORTIVE POLICY INSTRUMENTS

Wind economics, energy policies and environmental concerns continue to drive renewables capacity growth globally.

2015 HIGHLIGHTS

2015 was a record year for the wind industry as annual installations crossed the 60 GW mark for the first time, bringing total capacity to 432 GW.

By region, 2015 was undoubtedly a great year for China that surpassed for the first time the astonishing figure of 30.5 GW, a record figure never seen before and clearly above expert's estimates.

EUROPE:

	Renewable energy	CO2 emissions reduction	Energy efficiency
2020 targets	20%	20%	20%
2030 targets	At least 27%	At least 40%	At least 27%

Progress on member states towards 2020 targets

SPAIN:

On January 14th 2016 the first auction of RES capacity under the RD 413/2014 framework was held.

The auction was designed to provide a similar remuneration scheme that the one that applies to current installations (RD 413/2014).

Developers were bidding to build 500 MW of wind energy and 200 MW of biomass plants.

The auction was very competitive, around 5 times oversubscribed for onshore wind, and awarded contracts without any incentive, this is, at 100% discount to the opening price. EDPR was awarded 93 MW of wind energy. The Government has announced that more auctions will be organised, possibly in 2016, to contract the capacity that Spain needs to comply with its 2020 targets.

FRANCE:

POLAND:

ITALY:

UNITED KINGDOM:

ROMANIA:

BRAZIL:

In 2015, renewables' projects participated in four auctions. EDPR was awarded 140 MW of wind in an auction held on November 13th.

EUROPEAN TRADING SYSTEM REFORM

The EU emissions trading system (EU ETS) is a cornerstone of the European Union's policy to address climate change and it represents a key tool for reducing GHG emissions costeffectively.

However, the scheme has been witnessing severe challenges. To address them, the European Commission has approved a range of measures.

BACKGROUND:

However, in recent years, weak demand for allowances, largely due to the economic crisis, has led to a surplus of allowances, which has depressed the carbon price.

THE REFORM:

To address the problem, the EU Commission has introduced two mechanisms: backloading in 2014 and the Market Stability Reserve in 2015.

U.S. TO CONTINUE LEADING THE WAY

Historically, the typical framework of wind development in the US has been decentralised, with no national feed-in tariff. It involves the combination of two key drivers of the top line:

PPAs: long-term bilateral power purchase agreements by which a wind developer can sell its output at a fixed price, usually

GROWTH PROSPECTS

will need to be added until 2020 in order to fulfil

Regarding RPS targets in place to encourage renewable energy demand, we estimate 22 GW of wind

compliance with targets already established. From wind energy competitiveness alone, we believe an additional 7 GW can be added.

3. RISK MANAGEMENT

RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS

RISK PROFILER: Responsible for identification and analyses of risks, defining policies and limits for risk management within the company;
RISK MANAGER: Responsible for day to day operational decisions and for implementing approved risk policies;
RISK CONTROLLER: Responsible for follow up of the result of risk taking decisions and for verification of alignment of operations with general policy approved by the Executive Committee.

EDPR created three distinct meetings of the Risk Committee in order to separate discussions on execution of mitigation strategies from those on the definition of new policies:

RESTRICTED RISK COMMITTEE: Held every month, it is mainly focused on development risk and market risk from electricity price. It is the forum to discuss the execution of mitigation strategies to reduce merchant exposure. Its purpose is also to control the limits of defined risk policies, with regards to counterparty risk, operational risk and country risk.
FINANCIAL RISK COMMITTEE: Held every quarter, it is held to review main financial risks and discuss the execution of mitigation strategies. Exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and credit risk from financial counterparties are most relevant risk reviewed in this committee.
RISK COMMITTEE: Held every quarter, it is the forum where new strategic analyses are discussed and new policies are proposed for approval to the Executive Committee. Additionally, EDPR's overall risk position is reviewed, together with EBITDA@Risk and Net Income@Risk.

RISK MAP AT EDPR

Risk Categories are Market, Counterparty, Operational, Business and Strategic, and they refer to the following risks:

MARKET RISK: It refers to the risk to an institution resulting from movements in market prices, in particular, changes in electricity prices, interest rates, foreign exchange rates and other commodity prices.
COUNTERPARTY RISK: Risk that counterparty to a transaction could default before final settlement of the transaction's cash flows. A direct economic loss would occur if transactions with the counterparty had positive economic value at the time of default. Even in the case of not defaulting, it may not comply with its contract obligations (timing, quality, etc.), implying additional higher costs due to its replacement or to delays in fulfilling the contract.
OPERATIONAL RISK: Defined as the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems or from external events (other than counterparty);
BUSINESS RISK: Potential loss in the company's earnings due to adverse changes in business volume, margins, or both. Such losses can result above all from a serious deterioration of the weather conditions, or changes in the regulatory environment. Changes in electricity prices are considered a market risk;
STRATEGIC RISK: It refers to risks coming from macroeconomic, political or social situation in countries where EDPR is present, as well as those coming from a change in the competitive landscape, from technology disruptions, from investment decisions criteria or from reputational issues;

Strategic Risk Country Risk Competitive Landscape Risk Technology Disruptions Risk Invest. Decisions Criteria Risk Reputational Risk Business Risk Energy Production Risk Equipment Performance Risk Regulatory Risk (renewables) Wind Turbine Price Risk Wind Turbine Supply Risk Operational Risk Development Risk Execution Risk Physical Assets Risk Legal Claims Risk (Compliance) Personnel Risk Processes Risk Information Technologies Risk Counterparty Risk Counterparty Credit Risk Counterparty Operational Risk Market Risk Electricity Price Risk Interest Rate Risk Exchange Rate Risk Inflation Risk Liquidity Risk Commodity Price Risk

EDPR RISK MATRIX BY RISK GROUP

FOCUS ON COUNTRY RISK AT EDPR

WHAT IS COUNTRY RISK?

Country Risk is defined as the probability of occurrence of a financial loss in a given country due to macroeconomics, political/social issues, natural disasters or legislative decisions.

SOURCES OF COUNTRY RISK

Economic: Risks from the country's economic evolution, affecting revenues or costs of the investments. It can be divided in macroeconomics (the conditions of domestic economy) and external sector (international transactions between the country and the rest of the world).
Political and social: Includes all possible damaging actions or factors for the business of foreign firms that emanate from any political authority, governmental body or social group in the host country (i.e. war, civil disturbances, etc.).
Natural disasters:Natural phenomena (i.e. seismicity, weather) that may impact negatively in the business conditions.

METHODOLOGY FOR COUNTRY RISK ASSESSMENT AT EDPR

External Assessment: It is the consensus from third parties assessments
- ECAs
- Private consultants
- Credit rating agencies
- Market indexes.

Internal Assessment:

It is an internal estimate of country risk which allows to differentiate the specific source of risk

Economic sector Macroeconomics External sector
Political Risk
Natural Disaster

USE OF COUNTRY RISK

Country Risk of EDPR's geographies is monthly monitored and is considered for new investment decisions

MORE THAN HALF OF 2016 CAPACITY ADDITIONS ALREADY UNDER CONSTRUCTION

By the end of 2015, EDPR had 344 MW under construction all related to projects to be delivered in 2016 with long term secured remuneration.

In Mexico, EDPR started the works of its first wind farm in the country, 200 MW with a secured PPA in the state of Coahuila.

In Brazil EDPR has 120 MW under construction related to the Baixa do Feijão projects after successfully bidding in the A5 auction for 20 year PPAs schedule to start in 2016.

Finally in Europe, 24 MW were under construction in France, where EDPR has a solid long-term growth strategy.

92% OF EDPR'S INSTALLED CAPACITY IS COVERED BY ISO 14001 CERTIFICATION

Assets' Average Age and Useful Life

In Europe, EDPR's portfolio had an average age of 6 years, in North America 5 years, and in Brazil 5 years.

Throughout the entire process, from development to operations, EDPR maintains the highest standards in construction quality, integrity, and sustainability.

All in all, the total intrinsic value created by the installation of more than 0.6 GW is greatly positive.

8% INCREASE IN YOY GENERATION

EDPR generated 21.4 TWh during 2015. When adding the over 1 TWh produced from our equity projects, enough clean energy was produced to serve nearly 50% of the electricity demand of Portugal.

The 8% year-on-year increase in the electricity output benefited from the capacity additions over the last 12 months and ENEOP consolidation.

Due to a lower wind resource, EDPR achieved a 29% load factor during 2015, which compares with a 30% load factor achieved in 2014.

PREMIUM PERFORMANCE AND DIVERSIFIED PORTFOLIO DELIVERS BALANCED OUTPUT

In 2015, EDPR's output in Brazil decreased 6% YoY to 222 GWh, as a result of a weaker wind resource during the year, and led to a lower load factor of 30% (-2pp).

1. Market Risk

1. i) Electricity price risk

Despite EDPR's strategy of eliminating market price risk, EDPR still has some wind farms with merchant exposure.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2015 22

allow receiving RECs (Renewable Energy Credit) for each MWh of renewable generation. REC prices are very volatile and depend on the regional supply/demand equilibrium in the relevant market.

In Ontario (Canada), the selling price is defined by a long term feed-in-tariff, thus, there is no electricity price exposure.

1. ii) Risks related to financial markets

EDPR finances its wind farms through project finance or corporate debt. In both cases, a variable interest rate might imply significant fluctuations in interest payments.

1. ii) a) Interest rate risk

Given the policies adopted by EDPR Group, current exposure to variable interest rate is not significant and financial cash flows are substantially independent from the fluctuation of interest rates.

The purpose of interest rate risk management policies is to reduce the exposure of long term debt cash flows to market fluctuations, mainly by contracting long term debt with a fixed rate.

When long term debt is issued with floating rates, EDPR settles derivative financial instruments to swap from floating to fixed rate.
EDPR has a portfolio of interest-rate derivatives with maturities of up to 13 years. Sensitivity analyses of the fair value of financial instruments to interest-rate fluctuations are periodically performed.

Repricing calendar of debt is continuously monitored together with interest rates in order to detect good timing for interest rate hedging.

1. ii) b) Exchange rate risk

EDPR also hedges net investments in foreign currency through cross currency interest rate swaps.

Finally, EDPR contracts foreign exchange forwards to hedge the risk in specific transactions, mainly in payments to suppliers which may be denominated in different currencies.

EDPR's hedging efforts minimize exchange rate volatility, but do not eliminate completely this risk due to high costs associated to hedging FX in certain situations.

1. ii) c) Inflation risk

In some countries, regulated remuneration is linked to inflation.

1. ii) d) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk of EDPR not meeting its financial obligations. Liquidity risk is mainly related to extreme market movements in electricity prices, interest or exchange rates.

EDPR tracks liquidity risk in the short term (margin calls, etc) and in the long term (financing sources) in order to meet strategic targets previously set (EBITDA, debt ratio and others).

1. iii) Commodity price risk (other than electr.)

In order to manage this risk, EDPR may hedge some of the market exposure in OTC/future commodity markets depending on the potential losses and the cost of the hedge.

2. Counterparty Risk

During 2015, EDPR updated its Global Counterparty Risk Policy.

2. i) Counterparty Credit Risk

If the transactions or portfolio of transactions with the counterparty has a positive economic value at the time of default, an economic loss would occur.

2. ii) Counterparty Operational Risk

Construction and O&M subcontractors are counterparties to which EDPR is exposed from an operational point of view.

3. Operational Risk

3. i) Development Risk

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2015

In this context, EDPR's experience gathered in different countries is useful to anticipate and deal with similar situations in other countries.

3. ii) Execution Risk

The delay implies a postponement of cash flows, affecting profitability of the investment.
When a wind farm has a PPA, a delay of the commercial operation date might imply the payment of LDs , with the consequent loss of revenues and the impact on annual financial results.

During the design phase, EDPR engineering teams supervise the engineering and the installation method. Construction is subcontracted to technically capable construction companies.

In both cases, a critical path analysis is performed to assess the reliability of construction and installation plan.

3. iii) Physical assets

Wind farms in construction and in operation are exposed to weather hazards, natural disasters, etc. These risks depend on the location.

3. iv) Information Technology

EDPR mitigates this risk creating redundancy of servers and control centers of wind farms. Redundancy is created in a different location to anticipate potential natural disasters, etc.

3. v) Legal claims (compliance)

EDPR faces potential claims of third parties and fraud of its employees.

EDPR revises periodically its compliance with all the regulations that affects its activity (environmental, taxes…)

3. vi) Personnel

EDPR identifies two main risk factors regarding personnel: turnover and health and safety.

Turnover: Cost of replacing an employee. A high turnover implies direct costs of replacement and indirect costs of knowledge loss
Health and safety: Likelihood that a person may be harmed or suffers adverse health effects if exposed to a hazard.

EDPR aims zero-accidents at work by constantly training in health and safety issues and certifying its facilities according to the OHSAS 18001 standard.

3. vii) Processes

Internal processes are subject to potential human errors.

Internal Audit Department regularly reviews internal processes and recommends the establishment of new controls or the improvement in the implementation of existing procedures.

4. Business Risk

4. i) Energy Production Risk

EDPR mitigates wind resource volatility and seasonality through geographical diversification of its asset base in different countries and regions.

In some geographies there is an inverse correlation between wind volume and electricity price, implying a natural hedge.

EDPR has analysed in detail the potential use of financial products to hedge wind risk, and EDPR might use this product to mitigate risk in specific cases.

4. ii) Equipment Performance Risk

EDPR mitigates this risk by using a mix of turbine suppliers which minimizes technological risk, avoiding exposure to a unique manufacturer.

EDPR also engages wind turbine suppliers through medium-term full-scope maintenance agreements to ensure alignment in minimizing technology risk.

4. iii) Regulatory Risk (renewables)

EDPR is managing its exposure to regulatory risks through diversification, by being present in several countries and through participation as an active member in several wind associations.

Regulatory Risk is also considered ex-ante, at the moment of the investment, through sensitivity analyses that are performed to evaluate its impact in project profitability under different scenarios.

4. iv) Wind Turbine Price Risk

Price of wind turbines is affected, not only by market fluctuations of the materials used in the turbines, but also by the demand of wind turbines.

For every new project, EDPR secures the demand risk that might increase price of the turbines.

4. v) Wind Turbine Supply Risk

The demand for new wind farms may offset the offer of turbines by WTG manufacturers. Currently, the local component requirement in some geographies (Ex: Brazil) creates this shortfall situation.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2015 26

For geographies with specific requirements of local component, EDPR does not engage in a project before securing the supply of wind turbines.

5. Strategic Risk

5. i) Country Risk

Macroeconomic Risk: Risks from the country´s economic evolution, affecting revenue or cost time of the investments
Political Risk: All possible damaging actions or factors for the business of foreign firms that emanate from any political authority, governmental body or social group in the host country
Natural disaster risk: Natural phenomena (seismicity, weather) that may impact negatively in the business conditions.

During 2015, EDPR updated its Global Country Risk Policy.

5. ii) Competitive landscape

Additionally, the consequences of a change in the competitive landscape due to mergers and acquisitions may also be a risk for EDPR.

5. iii) Technology disruptions

5. iv) Investment decisions criteria

54. RISK FUNCTIONS AND FRAMEWORK

Risk Management at EDPR is supported by three distinct organizational functions, each one with a different role: Strategy (Risk Profiler), Management (Risk Manager) and Controlling (Risk Controller).

Risk functions	Description
Strategy – General risk strategy & policy	x Global Risk Department provides analytically supported proposals to general strategic issues x Responsible for proposing guidelines and policies for risk management within the company
Management – Risk management & risk business decisions	x Implement defined policies by Global Risk x Responsible for day-to-day operational decisions and for related risk taking and risk mitigating positions
Controlling – Risk control	x Responsible for follow-up of the results of risk taking decisions and for contrasting alignment of operations with general risk policy approved by the board

EDPR created three distinct meetings of the Risk Committee in order to separate discussions on execution of mitigation strategies from those on the definition of new policies:

Restricted Risk Committee: Held every month, it is mainly focused on development risk and market risk from electricity price. It is the forum to discuss the execution of mitigation strategies to reduce merchant exposure. Its purpose is also to control the limits of defined risk policies, with regards to counterparty risk, operational risk and country risk.
Financial Risk Committee: Held every quarter, it is held to review main financial risks and discuss the execution of mitigation strategies. Exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and credit risk from financial counterparties are most relevant risk reviewed in this committee.
Risk Committee: Held every quarter, it is the forum where new strategic analyses are discussed and new policies are proposed for approval to the Executive Committee. Additionally, EDPR´s overall risk position is reviewed, together with EBITDA@Risk and Net Income@Risk.
