Following the transition to the 2025 growth strategy, the key performance indicator internal financing capability was replaced by the new key performance indicator debt repayment potential in 2021. The debt repayment potential measures the ability of EnBW to repay its debts from its current earnings potential. This performance indicator should enable us to achieve a controlled growth in earnings within the scope of our financial targets, while maintaining a solid investment-grade rating at the same time. To manage our financial profile, we regularly check whether the debt repayment potential complies with the latest requirements of the rating agencies. As it will not be possible to exclusively finance the growth envisioned in our EnBW 2025 strategy using funds from our internal financing capability, the debt repayment potential will replace the internal financing capability from 2021 onwards.

In the reporting year, the retained cash flow was slightly above the forecasted range of €1.6 billion to €1.7 billion. Due to factors that are outside of the company’s influence, such as higher collateral and a rise in the interest rate for pension provisions, the debt repayment potential in the 2021 financial year was significantly higher than the target value of between 11.5% and 12.5%.

The calculation method for the key performance indicator CO₂ intensity will be restricted in future to include only factors that can be controlled by the company. In contrast to previous years, the share related to redispatch that cannot be controlled by EnBW is no longer included. Using the previous calculation method, the CO₂ intensity for the 2021 financial year would have been 492 g/kWh. This performance indicator still excludes nuclear generation. The CO₂ intensity including nuclear generation for the reporting year was 386 g/kWh (previous year: 268 g/kWh).
