Voltalia's 2025 Half-Year Results Highlight Renewable Growth
Voltalia Reports Strong Half-Year Results for 2025
Voltalia (Euronext Paris, code ISIN: FR0011995588) has released its consolidated half-year results for 2025. The company has shown resilience despite a challenging environment influenced by production curtailments in Brazil.
Financial Overview
The half-year EBITDA stood at 78.3 million euros, reflecting a slight decline of 4% from the previous year. The total turnover reached 257 million euros, driven by an impressive 50% growth in services catered to third-party clients, counterbalancing a temporary dip in energy sales.
Key Financial Metrics
- Net loss attributable to the group was reported at 39.7 million euros, an increase from 15.7 million euros in the first half of 2024.
The decrease in profitability can be primarily attributed to fewer project disposals than in 2024 and non-recurring costs associated with the company's transformation strategy. The EBITDA forecast for the year remains optimistic, with estimates ranging between 200 and 220 million euros.
Operational Highlights
As of June 30, 2025, Voltalia reported an operational production increase of 14%, reaching 2.4 terawatt-hours (TWh), although curtailed by operational constraints imposed by the Brazilian network operator. The company is currently managing a capacity of 3.3 gigawatts (GW) operational and under construction, a 7% increase compared to the previous period.
Production and Capacity Insights
The capacity operated for third-party customers saw a remarkable 20% increase, reaching 7.7 GW. Voltalia underlines its commitment to scaling up its operations, with significant capacity slated to come online by the end of 2025.
Market Outlook and Strategy
For the remainder of 2025, Voltalia projects a cautious but positive trajectory influenced by the anticipated recovery from the curtailments that affected production levels. The company is positioned to enhance its operational efficiency through strategic initiatives like the SPRING transformation plan, aimed at realigning core activities and improving overall performance.
Focus on SPRING Transformation Plan
This transformation plan aims to foster a more agile operational model and improve value creation across its projects. CEO Robert Klein emphasized the importance of refining Voltalia's operational performance, essential for maintaining competitive positioning in the rapidly evolving renewable energy sector.
Recent Developments
During the first semester of 2025, Voltalia encountered a minor setback when a sawmill adjacent to its Cacao biomass plant in French Guiana caught fire, leading to an estimated operational downtime of six to twelve months. Despite this incident, the company continues to forge ahead with its pipeline of projects, particularly recent contracts awarded by ESB for solar power plants in Ireland.
Investment and Future Goals
Voltalia’s strategy encompassing a robust portfolio of projects under development, totaling approximately 17.4 GW of potential capacity, showcases its long-term growth ambitions. The focus remains on sustaining the momentum and expanding operational capacity amidst dynamic market conditions.
