Services and other purchases used  (3)

PURCHASES AND OTHER EXTERNAL EXPENSES 37,410 Fuel purchases used include costs relating to raw materials for energy generation (nuclear fuels, fissile materials, coal, oil, and gas), and purchases of services (1) related to the nuclear fuel cycle. Nuclear fuel and coal purchases used have decreased due to the lower level of nuclear power output, and the less extensive use of coal-fired plants. This decrease was more than counterbalanced by an increase in gas purchased and CO 2 quotas used and acquired. Regarding greenhouse gas emission rights used (see note 1.19.1): - At 31 December 2019, the volume of emissions was 6 million tonnes (7 million tonnes in 2018); - In 2019 EDF surrendered 8 million tonnes in respect of emissions generated in 2018 (11 million tonnes were surrendered in 2018 in respect of emissions generated in 2017). Energy purchases include electricity purchase obligations. The increase in energy purchases is principally explained by the €743 million rise in electricity purchase (2) obligations and LNG purchase obligations, which was partly offset by the lower level of purchases on the markets. Service purchases include distribution network access fees invoiced by the subsidiary Enedis. Excluding delivery, service purchases decreased by (3) €320 million in 2019.
