NETWORKS WASTE Up in collection and consolidation, down in plants' activities 6

- Positive results in Collection, due to the inflation recovery in tariffs and efficiencies
- Treatment & Disposal were down, due to lower plants' availability (WTE turbine extraordinary maintenance and WTE failure impacted for 9M€) and high ramp up costs
- Lower energy scenario and minor special waste volumes to landfills (-14%)
- Positive contribution from the consolidation of Sienambiente (+6M€)

NETWORKS ENERGY Lower energy prices and energy efficiency works' conclusion 7

- RES benefited from higher volumes (almost +50% YoY) offset by lower energy prices
- Lower heat due to the decrease in margins following the gas price trend partially counterbalanced by higher volumes (+5%)
- Lower production hours to capture positive clean spark spread combined with a weaker MSD (12€M vs. 16€M in H1 2023)
- Works' conclusion after Superbonus incentives

NETWORKS MARKET 8 Positive increase of value in a more competitive market

- Effectiveness commercial policy
- Margins partially offset by higher costs for maintaining the customer base in a competitive market
