The investment plan provides for EUR 3.6 billion aimed at increasing the efficiency and quality of services with strong growth in the RAB, which will reach almost EUR 5 billion in 2030. Of the investments intended for the networks, 59% are aimed at the integrated water service, for the strengthening and increase of the resilience of the network, the development of the purification plants, the inorganic growth through the consolidation of the minority stakes and the participation in water tenders in synergistic ATO, also in the South. A total of 21% of investments in the networks are allocated to gas distribution, in particular aimed at maintaining the current infrastructure in the reference territories, replacing old pipes with the latest generation ones and ready to receive hydrogen blendings, and development in strategic areas through participation in tenders. A total of 20% of networks investments are earmarked for the electricity distribution in order to allow the evolution of the networks by adapting them to support higher capacities due to the electrification of consumption, continuously pursuing operational efficiency, necessary to provide the best service at affordable levels to citizens. Furthermore, in addition to the previous plan, it is planned to use Repower EU funds to increase the resilience of electricity grids.
The planned investments and synergies allow for an EBITDA of EUR 730 million in 2030 (EUR + 317 million compared to 2022).
