Sector Growth Analysis
Despite less favorable market conditions, Edison said it achieved growth in its thermoelectric sector and energy services. Renewables and customer-related activities accounted for 50% of its EBITDA, in-line with a 70% target by 2030.
Sales Revenue Insights
Sales revenues grew to 9.45 billion euros in the first half from 7.27 billion euros a year ago, boosted by energy price increases and higher volumes.
Hydroelectric production fell back in line with the historic average. Volumes in 2025 were down 29.5% compared to the first half of 2024.
