Net changes in fair value on Energy and 5.1.4.3.1 Commodity derivatives, excluding trading activities The net changes in fair value on Energy and Commodity derivatives, excluding trading activities, fell from €642 million in 2019 to -€175 million in 2020, a change of €817 million that is in line with EDF Trading’s operations on behalf of EDF entities and Edison’s gas positions. Net depreciation and amortisation 5.1.4.3.2 Net depreciation and amortisation increased by €818 million compared to 2019. The France – Generation and supply segment registered a €566 million increase in net depreciation and amortisation. This rise is essentially explained by the commissioning of new facilities in the nuclear fleet, and to a lesser degree by accelerated depreciation of the coal-fired fleet from 1 June 2019. The France – Regulated activities segment registered a €114 million increase in net depreciation and amortisation, principally attributable to investments in connections and network reinforcements. Net depreciation and amortisation in the United Kingdom rose by €113 million in 2020, notably due to accelerated depreciation of Hunterston B, Dungeness and Hinkley Point B.

Impairment/reversals 5.1.4.3.3 In 2020, impairment amounted to €799 million, and mainly related to impairment of nuclear activities in the United Kingdom. Other income and expenses 5.1.4.3.4 In 2020, other income and expenses amounted to -€487 million, of which -€405 million concerned the France – Generation and supply segment, principally for repair work to containment penetration welds at the Flamanville 3 site (1) . In 2019, other income and expenses amounted to -€185 million. This particularly included the expense for the preferential employee shareholding offer which took place during the first half of 2019 (see note 15 to the 2019 consolidated financial statements) and restructuring provisions in certain Group entities.
