Neoen (ISIN: FR0011675362, Ticker: NEOEN), one of the world’s leading independent producers of exclusively renewable energy, is presenting its consolidated results for the six-month period ended on June 30, 2023. These financial statements, which have undergone a limited review by the Statutory Auditors, were approved by the Board of Directors on July 27, 2023.

Xavier Barbaro, Neoen’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented: “During the first half of 2023, Neoen’s operational and financial performance made substantial headway, as reflected by the 44% increase in our adjusted EBITDA. I’m very proud of our achievements, and I’d like to congratulate all our employees on the talent and determination they demonstrated in developing and operating high-quality assets. We recently inaugurated the largest wind farm in Finland, commissioned Australia’s largest solar farm and announced the construction of our first long duration battery. The growth of our project portfolio further accelerated: it now represents tens of GW, of which 7 GW already in operation or under construction. In an increasingly positive environment for renewable energies, in which our storage and energy management expertise will be decisive, we are highly confident in our ability to generate adjusted EBITDA in excess of €700 million and have more than 10 GW in capacity installed by year-end 2025.”
