Eni activities:
our value chain

Eni is an energy tech company engaged in the entire value chain: from the exploration, development and extraction of oil and natural gas, to the generation of electricity from natural gas and renewable sources, traditional and bio refining and chemical activities, and the development of circular economy processes. Eni extends its reach to end markets, marketing gas, power and products to local markets and to retail and business customers also offering services of energy efficiency and sustainable mobility. Consolidated expertise, technologies, geographical and energy sources diversification, alliances for development, as well as new business and financial models are Eni levers to effectively meet the challenge of a just energy transition, balanced and economically sustainable, while also maintaining a strong focus on value creation for shareholders. Along this path, Eni is committed to become a leading company in the production and sale of progressively decarbonized energy products, increasingly customer-oriented.

Eni’s strategy to reach carbon neutrality by 2050 leverages on an industrial transformation to be implemented by strengthening available and economically sustainable technologies able to immediately contribute to emission reduction, among which:

  • gas component as a bridge energy source in the transition, flanked by investments to reduce CO2 and methane emissions;
  • development of biomethane and biofuels, by increasing feedstocks of bio and renewable raw materials, waste and residues and of an integrated agri-feedstock production chain and contributing to transport decarbonization with no sudden changes to existing infrastructures;
  • renewables through increased installed capacity and integration with the retail business leveraging on large customer base;
  • carbon capture utilization and/or storage (CCUS), currently available to reduce emissions in hard-to-abate sectors, through the development of hubs for the storage of the CO2 from emissions generated by Eni’s and third parties’ industrial plants;
  • progressive development of the production of new energy carriers, including low carbon and renewable hydrogen.

The scale use of these solutions together with research and development of breakthrough technologies, such as magnetic confinement fusion, can support the revolution of the energy sector. Residual emissions, i.e. those that cannot be reduced due to technical and economic constraints, will be offset through high quality carbon offsets.

Business ModelBusiness Model

We are an integrated energy company committed to a socially fair energy transition that, through tangible and economically sustainable solutions, aims to address the crucial challenges of our time: combating climate change and providing access to energy efficiently and sustainably for all. Our business model is aimed at creating long-term value for all stakeholders through an established presence along the entire energy value chain. Our corporate mission integrates the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations 2030 Agenda and our distinctive approach permeates all our activities. Eni continues its commitment ensuring energy security, continuing to guarantee value creation while advancing its transition strategy with a technologically neutral and pragmatic approach aimed at maintaining the competitiveness of the production system and social sustainability.

These objectives leverage a diversified geographic presence and a portfolio of technological solutions which will enable the creation of a decarbonized energy mix. Essential to the achievement of these goals are partnerships and alliances with stakeholders to ensure active involvement in defining Eni’s activities and transforming the energy system.

Our model combines the use of proprietary technologies with the development of an innovative satellite model, which involves the creation of dedicated companies capable of independently accessing the capital market to finance their growth while bringing out the real value of each business. This integrated business model is supported by a Corporate Governance system, inspired by the principles of transparency and integrity, an Integrated Risk Management process ensuring, through the assessment and analysis of the risks and opportunities of the reference scenario, informed and strategic decisions, as well as materiality analysis to examine the most significant impacts generated by Eni on the economy, environment and people, including those on human rights.

The operation of the business model is focused on the best possible use of all the resources (inputs) the organization disposes and on their transformation into outputs, through the implementation of its strategy.

Eni also organically integrates its business plan with the principles of environmental and social sustainability, deploying its actions along three levers:

  1. Carbon neutrality by 2050
  2. Operational excellence
  3. Alliances for the promotion of development

Carbon neutrality by 2050

Eni’s business model envisages a decarbonization path towards carbon neutrality by 2050 based on an approach oriented to emissions generated throughout the life cycle of energy products. This path, achieved through existing and under development technologies, will allow Eni to totally reduce its carbon footprint, both in terms of net emissions and net carbon intensity. On the back of this scenario, Eni believes natural gas having a role as a bridge energy source in the transition by virtue of its accessibility, reliability, versatility and reduced carbon footprint compared to other fossil fuels.

Operational excellence

Eni’s business is aimed to operational excellence through the continuous commitment in the enhancement, health and safety of people, assets integrity, environmental protection, respect for human rights, resilience and diversification of activities and financial soundness. These elements allow Eni to seize the opportunities deriving from the possible developments in the energy market and to progress its transformation path.

Alliances for the promotion of development

Eni is committed to reduce energy poverty in the countries where it operates through the development of infrastructures linked to traditional business but also to the new frontiers of renewables with the aim of generating value in the long-term by transferring its know-how and skills to local partners (so called “Dual Flag” approach). In these countries, Eni promotes initiatives to support local communities accessing to energy, to diversify economy, training and health of community, access to water and sanitation, and protection of the territory, in collaboration with international players and in line with the National Development Plans and the United Nations 2030 Agenda.

The Energy Trilemma

StrategyStrategy

2024-2027 Strategic Plan

In 2024-2027 strategic plan, Eni progresses in executing its distinctive strategy creating value while addressing energy security and affordability needs, and decarbonization goals.

The strategic plan is based on:

  • the realization of full value from traditional energy businesses while reducing emissions;
  • the built of new high-return, high-growth activities related to the energy transition;
  • an ecosystem of innovation and rapid implementation of Eni’s proprietary technologies, to effectively and efficiently access to new energy resources, improving the use of existing technologies and reducing the carbon impact on the environment;
  • delivering strong financial performance leveraging on organic capex, selective M&A and corporate efficiency initiatives;
  • active management portfolio activities coupled with focused disposals reducing net capex, while strengthening the balance sheet structure;
  • enhance shareholders’ remuneration.

Eni Group

The 2024-27 plan foresees:

  • generation of adjusted cash flow from operation of around €13.5 billion in 2024 and €62 billion over the plan period, with 30% growth at a constant scenario;
  • 2024-2027 overall net capex of €27 billion (gross investment net portfolio cash-in) and an average net capex of €7 billion per year, more than 20% lower than last year’s Plan, reflecting optimization, improved project quality and greater portfolio management;
  • plan portfolio management activity of around €8 billion net cash-in reflects advancement of the Satellite strategy, anticipating value through the dual exploration model after consistent exploration success, and continued high-grading;
  • corporate cost efficiency of €1.8 billion over the plan period stemming out of Eni’s strategic evolution and opportunities emerging out of the satellite model;
  • leverage in the plan period expected to be between 15-25%;
  • enhanced shareholder remuneration: target payout in terms of dividend and buy-back is to be raised to 30%-35% of CFFO from 25%-30% previously. The proposed 2024 dividend is raised by over 6% to €1.00 per share from €0.94 cents, paid in quarterly installments, and the share buyback set at €1.1 billion. Upside participation is also improved up to 60% from 35% of Plan incremental cashflows.

Our satellite model

We are seizing industrial potential provided by the Energy Transition with a distinctive organisational and financial model.

Our satellite model reduces the capital absorption by new businesses preserving the free cash flow from traditional assets for the benefit of shareholder distribution.

Indeed, we can develop emerging activities autonomously, usually with third-party funding, accessing new pools of aligned capital and thereby highlighting value creation.

At the same time a satellite structure can also be applied in some upstream geographies, to access operational and financial synergies, maximise growth potential, and, of course, free up more capital for the rest of the portfolio.

Natural Resources: efficiency and Value Creation through an Integrated Approach

Natural Resources will remain a dynamic and material value and cash generator for Eni, while delivering progressive decarbonisation.

We will follow a mainly organic strategy to develop our activities leveraging our highly distinctive exploration and market-leading fast track development to grow over the Plan.

The considerable optionality and flexibility of new projects also allow us to unlock value earlier and to de-risk investments via an increased relevance of portfolio management.

Then, we are expanding our existing trading activities so as to participate in the full gas value chain.

Finally, we are using existing infrastructure and depleted fields to capture and store CO2, both for ourselves and as a service for others.

Energy Evolution: growing profitable new energy businesses

Energy Evolution integrates businesses that drive the Transition and reposition Eni towards higher growth and better valuations.

Enilive, Plenitude and biochemistry/Novamont provide a portfolio of business solutions to help customers to cut emissions and are ideal candidates for our Satellite model.

Enilive is rapidly developing a multi-energy, multiservice strategy to generate value in the sustainable mobility space. Our Biorefining activities are evolving into a high-performing, high-returning and globally relevant business.

Plenitude has delivered outstanding operational and financial growth. Its integrated business model is a critical and differentiating quality. The combination of renewables and our 10 mln clients provides valuable internal hedging.

Plenitude’s e-mobility growth will also leverage Enilive stations, while also continue developing partnerships with car manufacturers and large-scale retail across Europe.

Versalis is transforming and re-positioning, leveraging new platforms focused on specialized products, bio-based chemistry, and circularity solutions, where we can compete with a leading position.  

Financial strategy

Eni financial framework supports the execution of a strategy that builds businesses with complementary risk and returns profile, increases resilience and flexibility across the cycle and delivers value to shareholders.

In 2024 we expect to generate more than 14 bln in Cash from operation. Over the course of the plan we also expect to grow CFFO in a constant scenario by around 30% or over €4Bln.

The growth in operating cashflow is delivered from all segments. It is worth highlighting that our 2 main Transition businesses of Plenitude and Enilive will account for 20% of the CFFO growth during the plan period, emphasising the emerging high quality diversification we see at Eni. 

Financial strength: A strong balance sheet and flexibility

Our investment and distribution plans are made in the context of maintaining balance sheet strength and flexibility.

During the Plan period our CFFO will average over €15 Bln per year and net capex will average around €7Bln implying a FCF that materially covers our distributions, and enhances balance sheet strength.

Our goal is to preserve Eni as a strong investment grade credit.

Leverage will range between 15-25% as we seek to balance a fundamentally conservative capital structure with flexibility and advantaged cost of capital.

Shareholder distribution

Our distribution policy confirms the progressive growth in shareholder value related to our strategy. Our model is to continue to rank distribution as a top priority through a percentage of operating cashflow – a transparent link to our business performance.

Eni enhanced the payout which will target a distribution between 30-35% of expected annual CFFO, compared with the previous 25-30%, by way of a combination of dividend and share buyback.

For 2024 Eni announced:

  • an annual dividend of €1.00/share, a 6% increase versus 2023
  • a share buyback programme of €1.1 bln, reflecting the expectations on scenario and the performance of the business.

This is a flexible tool, with higher exposure to the upside. In fact, similar to 2023, we can confirm that in lower than planned scenario we will seek business outperformance and use financial flexibility to deliver the target buyback.

While, in the case of better than planned CFFO outcomes, we will now allocate up to 60% of incremental cash to our buyback, a material improvement versus last year when we indicated an upside of 35%.

During 1Q call, we raised the 2024 buyback by 45%, to €1.6Bln from €1.1Bln, with the continuing commitment to revisit in each of the remaining quarters to update on expected financial performance and the associated distribution.

CCUS, carbon offset initiatives & agri-feedstock

Eni recognizes and supports economy transition towards a low carbon model and on this basis, Eni developed a decarbonization strategy of the Group's products and industrial processes to target Net Zero Scope 1+2+3 emissions by 2050. Proprietary technologies matured within our traditional businesses are one of the drivers of our decarbonization Path and are being used to CCUS projects and the development of innovative and distinctive models related to agri-business and carbon offset initiatives.

CCUS PROJECTS

Within the CO2 capture and storage solutions, Eni's distinctive model is based on technologies and expertise of the gas reservoir and storage matured in the past, in synergy with depleted or near to depletion gas fields and partial use of existing infrastructures. Eni targets to achieve before 2030 a CO2 gross storage capacity of over 15 mmtonnes/year and increase to approximately 40 mmtonnes/year after 2030. Eni's portfolio CCUS project is large and in different Countries.

AGRI-FEEDSTOCK INITIATIVES

Eni’s development model for the agri-feedstock initiatives represents a distinctive feature on vertical integration of the biofuels supply chain and is based on the vegetable oil, to be used as feedstock, from raw materials produced by the cultivation of marginal areas and the valorization of waste and residues from the agro-industrial and forestry supply chain. This model with end-to-end approach targets to ensure volumes of vegetable oil at competitive cost to support the expansion of Eni’s biorefining activities with significant positive impacts on local development and employment.

CARBON OFFSET INITIATIVES

These initiatives are expected to achieve a carbon credits portfolio to offset residual emissions for less than 25 million tons of CO2 in 2050.

Environmental activities

The Group’s environmental activities are managed by Eni Rewind, Eni’s subsidiary engaged in the valorization of land, water and waste resources, industrial or deriving from reclamation activities, to give them new life leveraging on the circular economy principles, through sustainable reclamation and revaluation projects, both in Italy and abroad. Eni Rewind, through its integrated end-to-end model, guarantees the supervision of every phase of the process reclamation and waste management, planning projects from the early stages to enhance and reuse resources (soils, water, waste), making them available for new development opportunities.

Strategically relevant initiatives

On June 30, 2023, Eni Rewind acquired 30% of the share capital of Labanalysis Environmental Science, a leading company in the field of environmental analysis, with the aim of strengthening the integrated offering of environmental services to be proposed in the foreign market and consolidating its presence in a fundamental sector for the correct direction of environmental remediation solutions and waste management.

In July 2023, Eni and Edison signed an agreement establishing collaboration between the two companies for the management of environmental remediation projects at all industrial sites transferred in 1989 from Montedison to Enimont. The agreement will regulate the equal economic contribution for remediation interventions, already initiated by Eni Rewind and Versalis, in execution of the projects decreed by the Ministry of the Environment. The implementation of the agreement on a site-by-site basis, along with the related planning activities, cost sharing, and relations with institutions, will be coordinated by a joint technical-legal committee between the two companies.
