For 130 years it has played a leading role in Italy’s industrial development. Today, Edison is ready to resume its growth path, consistent with its strategic mandate within the EDF Group. Edison is active in its traditional electric power sector development such as the Dunkerque LNG terminal and is the most credible challenger of the former and the South Stream pipeline. monopolists. It also plays an increasingly important role in the hydrocarbon area, bolstered by growing The Company stands ready to seize international investments in exploration and production to increase growth opportunities, particularly in the oil and gas reserves and production. Mediterranean Basin. In addition, Edison is promoting infrastructural projects E&P operations have grown, in the last decades, to import natural gas that will help Italy and Europe from being a niche Italian activity to becoming an to diversify energy supply sources. established international outfit. In the E&P sector, Edison’s task will be to develop the portfolio of In this mission Edison will be strengthened and assets both in Italy and abroad, widen the complemented by EDF’s ongoing infrastructure geographic imprint of the group. 2013 HIGHLIGHTS 369 121 47,700 MMBoe Permits and Concessions Boe/d Hydrocarbons Reserves (2P) Hydrocarbons Daily Production 15.7 22.5% 7. 7 Billion m3 Edison Gas Sales/ GW Gas Sales in Italy Total Italian Gas Demand Electric Installed Capacity 56.3 12,335 3,200 TWh Millions Euros Employees Electric Power Sales in Italy Sales Revenues 3 2 1,500,000 Gas Storage in Italy Pipelines in project Customers in Italy 3 E&P OPERATIONS Edison owns gas and crude oil reserves both in Italy and abroad. E&P activities are managed by Edison’s E&P Division. In Italy Edison is active in the exploration and production of natural gas and crude oil with 48 concessions and 10 exploration permits. Edison holds 63 licenses abroad. 4 5 E&P OPERATIONS IN ITALY Since the early 50s Edison has always played a Vega, Sicily, and Rospo Mare, in the Adriatic sea and leading role in the Italian energy sector with the non operated onshore field of Tresauro (Enimed). discoveries of major importance.

At the end of the 80’s, the maturity of the Italian market led Edison to start operations abroad, beginning with Mediterranean Countries. Within the Mediterranean basin Edison still concentrate nowadays 100% of its producing assets. 8 9 E&P IN EGYPT In Egypt Edison holds a 100% operated participating interest in the Abu Qir concession in the Nile Delta offshore and operates (with a 60% working interest) the West Wadi El Rayan license, in the Western Desert.
