Gross debt breakdown (1,432.4 €m )
Guidance 2020: Recurring EBITDA expected to decrease between 5% and 10% versus 2019 results
Italy
- In the second half, a foreseeable moderate recover in demand will only partially offset the loss in volumes suffered during the lockdown period
- Operating results expected to be higher than previous year, net of the sale of CO2 emission rights
USA
- Demand expected to contract in the second half due to the concerns and growing uncertainties following the critical epidemiological picture
- Operating results in local currency expected to close somewhat down in comparison with previous year
Central Europe
- Expected some marginal slowdown in demand in the second half
- Operating results should remain in line with previous year
Eastern Europe
- In the second half, demand is not expected to rebound due to the continuing criticality of the epidemiological picture and the related greater uncertainties regarding the timing of the economic recovery
- Operating results expected to worsen in comparison with previous year

CCS situation: where are we now?
Good news…
- •Various CC options available although not all with the same level of technical readiness (TRL).
- •Storage and utilization solutions potentially available.
- •EU financing.
Bottlenecks
- •High costs
- •Lack of infrastructure
- •Not enough renewable energy / H2
- •NIMBY syndrome
What do we need to go forward?
- • High costs entail risk of carbon leakage. We need rules for maintaining our competitiveness.
- •Infrastructure projects and support for storage still missing.
- •Renewable energy supply.
- • New liaisons and new alliances between energy intensive industry and big emitters.
- •Stakeholder dialogue to prevent/limit NIMBY.
