PRESENTATION OF EDF GROUP Description of the Group's activities

With roughly 450 employees in France, Citelum employs close to 2,600 people, mainly in Europe (including France, Italy, Spain and Denmark) and in America (including the United States, Mexico, Brazil and Chile), which enables it to manage the services of more than 1,000 cities throughout the world (Mexico, Copenhagen, Barcelona, Rome, etc.). The technological changes in lighting equipment currently enable it to make use of an existing connected infrastructure, thereby facilitating energy savings, remote management of installations and improvements to security as well as showcasing cultural heritage. In addition, this lighting equipment, connected to other devices (sensors, cameras, etc.), offers new value-added services in the areas of the prevention of pollution, video-monitoring of the territory, information to users or the management of urban mobility and parking. Citelum operates on the following three value chains: increasing attractiveness for customers through the optimisation of lighting, ■ while limiting energy expenditure; improving perceived security by optimising the use of the allocated resources; ■ creating more fluid mobility and parking, promoting an increase in receipts from ■ customers. Citelum marks out its difference through its capacity to assist in all phases of a project, from design and completion of the works to operation and maintenance, by incorporating into its service offer solutions for financing, innovation with its Citegestion subsidiary's digital urban space management platform, Muse ® , and strong skills in contractual engineering. In 2017, Citelum was selected together with Bouygues Energies & Services to carry out an innovative connected management project for public space in Greater Dijon. The 12-year project is being carried out under a contract for design, construction, operation and maintenance, shared by the areas's 24 towns and provides for an energy efficiency commitment of 65%. The centralised command center was mainly designed from the urban space management platform Muse ® . This platform thus meets the needs of Greater Dijon in terms of event coordination, facilities management, local safety and making the urban area more attractive. In 2017, Citelum was also awarded a contract in the state of New Mexico in the United States for the renovation of the city of Albuquerque's streetlights, as well as for the design of a “Smart City” platform with Cisco. The 15-year contract includes the conversion of 20,000 streetlights to LED, the implementation of “IoT” architecture (a web platform connecting objects to one another) and the deployment of a centralised management system for works and maintenance. Through the renovation of the city's lighting system and use of the Muse® platform, Citelum will enable the city to meet its performance objectives in the course of the project - 58% of energy savings and a reduction of 123,000 tonnes in CO 2 emissions, while ensuring the city an optimal level of lighting and service, as borne out by the indicators. In 2017, Citelum also started work on its two main contracts in Mexico City (Mexico) and Naples (Italy). Citelum has already implemented this type of solution throughout the world, with major references in Copenhagen (Denmark), Syracuse (Italy), San Cugat (Spain) and Sète (France). EDF New Business 1.4.6.1.3 Innovation has always been at the core of EDF's strategy. In June 2017, in order to broaden the scope of its activities, the EDF group created a new structure called “EDF New Business”, regarded as EDF's start-up incubator. The purpose of EDF New Business is to create new growth drivers for the Group, by providing innovative and competitive products and services to its residential customers, companies and local authorities. EDF New Business plans to invest

€40 million in ten start-ups over the next two years. Five areas will be prioritised: energy efficiency, for both residential and business customers; ■ sustainable well-being in habitat, the smart home; ■ the energy cloud, i.e. management of decentralised energy systems (storage, ■ managing intermittency in energy generation, flexibility); the sustainable city, the range of offers available to local communities (electric ■ vehicles, etc.); the Company of the future, operational excellence of industrial and tertiary ■ customers. As both an investment fund and incubator, EDF New Business is built around a tight-knit team working in close cooperation with EDF's R&D Department and all of the Group's resources committed to open innovation and partnerships with start-ups (for example EDF Pulse, Innovation Hub, etc.). EDF Nouveaux Business also draws on ideas and expertise from the Group's employees, and is in a position to provide them dedicated support to assist them in developing their project as part of an entrepreneurial approach. To succeed in developing new business activities and innovative solutions in new technologies, EDF New Business can also invest directly in fledgling start-ups, or put them in contact with the Group's ecosystem, particularly the dedicated funds such as Electranova Capital. The entity can also create joint ventures with start-ups able to explore new business models and set out to conquer new markets in France or abroad. EDF New Business has several start-ups, subsidiaries and investments in the Group, including SecLab, ZnR Batteries, Perfesco, EDF Store & Forecast, Neot Capital. Moreover, since 1 June 2017, EDF New Business has contributed to the creation of new companies, such as Agregio, Metroscope, N Green Mobility, NeoT OffGrid Africa and Hoppy. etroscope Created in December 2017, Metroscope is a new subsidiary of the EDF group which arose out of an intrapreneurial project. Through a system of artificial intelligence, Metroscope provides real-time diagnostics allowing all types of industrial customers to increase and/or optimise the performance of their industrial facilities, by identifying random disturbances, failures and efficiency loss affecting their operating systems. Industrial operators are thus able to optimise the maintenance of their production facility and reduce operating costs. This “factory 4.0” solution was chosen by the Executive Management of EDF's nuclear fleet and is currently being deployed in all 58 nuclear generation units in France. The Group also plans to market Metroscope's solutions outside the Company to its industrial customers by 2019. Other service subsidiaries of the EDF 1.4.6.1.4 group Other subsidiaries within the EDF group complete the range of energy services that EDF offers. These focus on specific areas, targeting different categories of customers (individuals, professionals, businesses and local authorities) and cover a wide range of activities including research, construction, equipment maintenance, investment financing and assistance with obtaining permits and subsidies. Energy management To help customers manage their energy and fluid consumption, the EDF group provides facility monitoring and management solutions. Its subsidiaries Netseenergy and Edelia are active in this strategic area.
