PRESENTATION OF EDF GROUP Description of the Group's activities

EDF is convinced that partnerships with reliable automotive stakeholders, such as carmakers, equipment manufacturers and rental companies, are vital to the rapid expansion of electric mobility. Accordingly, partnerships have already been formed with firms such as Renault and Valéo. The EDF group's wholly-owned subsidiary IZIVIA (formerly Sodetrel) is already working to achieve these goals. Dalkia 1.4.6.1.1 The EDF group has held a 99.94% equity interest since July 2014 in Dalkia, a leading player in the European energy services market with a full range of services and an excellent sales network in France, that contribute to developing renewable energy and energy recovery, reducing energy consumption and improving the performance of the installations. alkia’s operations Dalkia now operates in the face of three major challenges: the fight against global warming and the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, energy efficiency as a source of savings, and the territories transformation in an increasing urbanisation context. Dalkia brings expertise to its customers in order to design, realise, and manage innovative energy solutions, which are more ecological and more economical, for sustainable development of cities and businesses. From decentralised energy generation to demand-side management, while optimising distribution, Dalkia is present at each stage of the energy chain, in order to improve system performance. Thanks to its 80 years of experience in managing heating and cooling networks, optimising industrial utilities, improving the energy performance of a building, or using alternative and renewable energies, Dalkia offers its customers tailor-made solutions to reduce their energy consumption and to improve the environmental and economic performance of their installations. In this way, in 2018, Dalkia (including its subsidiaries) has allowed its customers to avoid 4.2 million tonnes of CO 2 emissions and realised 6.3 TWh of energy savings. Dalkia manages over 80,000 energy installations in the following three customer segments: and cooling networks The development of the networks was an important growth engine in the last few years for Dalkia which established a reproducible model, resting upon numerous optimisation levers: improvement of the efficiency of teams and organisations, optimisation of the ■ performances of operations upon the takeover of networks; modification of the energy mix for greater efficiency and less CO 2 , with the ■ optimisation of cogeneration and the development of renewable energies and energy recovery (biomass, geothermal energy, waste-to-energy, biogas, recovery of unavoidable energy, etc.); additional services in order to better enhance assets (e.g. digital). ■ Thus, Dalkia is one of the leaders in France in the management of district heating and cooling networks, operating over 300 district and local installations, and providing heat to over 2 million homes. Deploying this model across its geographic targets will constitute a significant part of its future growth. utilities Dalkia is active in the industrial utilities business for over 2,300 industrial sites. The challenges are to improve environmental performance (particularly by controlling CO 2 emissions and the valuation of recoverying energy), competitiveness and security of supply. Dalkia’s strategy is to allow its industrial customers to concentrate on their core processes, by assuming responsibility for the generation of their utilities and the technical management of their facilities, while optimising their energy use and their greenhouse gas emissions. Dalkia differentiates itself by a large and coherent range of services, which includes the optimisation of industrial utilities (steam, electricity, cold, compressed air); adjustment of usage to requirements, and identification of

sources of unavoidable energy and recoverable co-products, optimisation of industrial building usage, and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Building energy services Building energy services consist of managing energy installations in buildings: optimisation of local thermal energy generation, transformed energy supply, operation and maintenance of technical facilities. They also seek to improve the operation of existing systems in order to maximise their effectiveness and to reduce their CO 2 emissions. Dalkia provides integrated energy services ranging from the design, construction and upgrading of installations, to transformed energy supply and management and maintenance of installations, for tertiary, industrial, public-sector and private-sector customers. Main subsidiaries of Dalkia in France Dalkia Smart Building (formerly Optimal Solutions) Dalkia Smart Building, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dalkia, specialises in designing and implementing solutions to help its customers adapt to the energy shift and digital transition in France. Complementing Dalkia's regional scope, Dalkia Smart Building designs and implements solutions to upgrade existing school, government, indoor pool and office facilities and build new buildings and neighbourhoods (smart buildings, smart thermal and electric grids, green data centres, smart pools). Dalkia Wastenergy (formerly Tiru) Dalkia Wastenergy, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dalkia since 29 March 2018, specialises in waste recovery serving local authorities and industrial customers: waste recovery via incineration, anaerobic digestion and boilers running on solid ■ recovered fuel (SRF) able to generate steam, electricity or biogas; materials recovery via compost, the sorting and packaging of recyclable materials ■ and solid recovered fuel generation. Dalkia Wastenergy designs, builds and currently operates facilities located in France, Great Britain and Canada. Dalkia Froid Solutions (formerly Cesbron) Dalkia Froid Solutions, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dalkia, specialises in the design, installation and maintenance of cooling solutions for industrial and tertiary customers. It also provides cooling solutions, air treatment, reversible heating and processes for bakeries and industrial kitchens. Dalkia Biogaz Dalkia Biogaz, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dalkia, specialises in the generation and recovery of biogas. It is present in France and Belgium and provides the following services: agricultural, territorial or industrial anaerobic digestion, biogas processing (drying and filtration), biogas recovery by cogeneration or treatment and biomethane injection. CRAM The CRAM group is a regional player mainly specialised in building energy services. Techsim Techsim, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dalkia, specialises in energy solutions for the generation of compressed air, nitrogen and breathable air in the industrial and nuclear sectors. Asteriot The Asteriot company provides solutions dedicated to fluids management and energy optimisation in collective-use buildings (housing units, tertiary, administrative buildings) by using information collected from connected objects. Main subsidiaries of Dalkia abroad Matex Controls, now operating under the Dalkia name and brand The Matex Controls company, based in Poland, designs, builds and maintains technical facilities (ventilation, heating, air conditioning, fire protection, etc.) for commercial buildings and industrial customers. It also provides innovative solutions for the building's energy performance management, including VEMS © (Virtual Energy Management System).
