OVERVIEW OF THE PERIOD 01

Key messages - Financial

  • EBITDA increased 11.1% to €264.9M vs 1H22, driven by:
  • (1) domestic business performance (+€19.6M) as a result of the increase in assets and opex remuneration (+€15.5M), other revenues (+€1.9M) and lower core OPEX (-€2.2M) reflecting the decrease in electricity prices;
  • (2) positive contribution from international business (+€6.9M).

  • Net Profit grew €17.2M (+37.5% vs 1H22), benefiting from the increase in EBIT (+€25.0M). This was partially offset by lower financial results (-€1.7M), higher taxes (+€6.1M) and higher levy (+€0.1M), following the increase in regulated asset base.

  • Net Debt, excluding tariff deviation outflows, decreased 8%, to €2,339M (vs FY 22).

  • Capex raised to €111.8M (an increase of 41.9% vs 1H22).

  • Transfers to RAB improved €11.1M. Decrease of 1.9% in average RAB (-€32M in electricity, -€45M in gas transmission, and +€8M in gas distribution) reflecting the level of amortization above the transfers to RAB.

Key messages - Operational

  • Renewable Energy Sources (RES) increased to 60.7% of the total supply in 1H23, vs 47.4% in 1H22.
  • The consumption of electricity remained in the same level as of 1H22 (25.2 TWh) and consumption of natural gas decreased by 21.1% vs 1H22.
  • High levels of service quality were maintained. The average interruption time in electricity was 0.09 minutes (+0.02 minutes YoY) while the gas transportation combined availability rate remained at 100%.

Publication of the first version of the revision of the 2030 National Energy and Climate Plan (PNEC 2030), establishing: (i) New targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions (in accordance with the Climate Law); (ii) New targets for RES; and (iii) New measures for its implementation.

  • ERSE approved Gas Tariffs for the new 2023-2024 gas year and set the parameters for the regulatory period 2024 and 2027, on the 1 st of June.
  • For 2024, the provisional WACC is 5.30% (for high pressure infrastructures) and 5.70% (for medium and low pressure) which is indexed to the 10 year Portuguese bond yields (OT) considering a starting point of 3.177% and a linear variation similar to electricity with a 0.3 slope.
  • Efficiency factor between 1 and 2%; new indexation methodology for the recovery of electricity costs at the terminal; new incentive for distribution activity - Incentive to Optimization of Demand Forecasts.
