The EBITDA result generated by the ENEA Group in 2022 was driven largelyby the following factors (compared to 2021):
In the Mining Area, the lower EBITDA was largely caused by a decrease inthe volume of coal mined, which was offset by a higher sales price. Inparallel, operating expenses went up.
In the Generation Area, the lower EBITDA resulted predominantly from thepoorer performance in the System Power Plants Segment (decrease in themargin on generation related to the higher cost of coal and CO2 emissionallowances, increase in fixed costs) and in the RES Segment (for themost part, increase in biomass consumption costs coupled with a lowervolume of net electricity generation from renewable sources).
In the Distribution Area, a decline was recorded in EBITDA, caused by anincrease in operating expenses, despite the realized higher margin onlicensed activities and a stronger result on other operating activities.
