E.ON reported a strong first half of 2025, with both adjusted Group EBITDA and adjusted Group net income increasing year-over-year. Investments reached €3.2 billion in the first six months, underscoring the company’s role as a driving force in Europe’s energy transition.

Adjusted Group EBITDA rose 13 percent to €5.5 billion (H1 2024: €4.9 billion), fueled by higher investments and improved operating performance. Adjusted Group net income grew 10 percent to €1.9 billion (H1 2024: €1.8 billion). E.ON confirmed its 2025 full-year guidance, projecting adjusted Group EBITDA between €9.6 and €9.8 billion, and adjusted Group net income between €2.85 and €3.05 billion, equivalent to earnings per share of €1.09 to €1.17.

The majority of first-half investments—€2.5 billion—were allocated to the network business, focusing on expansion, modernization, and digitization. As part of a major procurement initiative, E.ON signed long-term agreements with leading European manufacturers to secure future component needs, promote standardization, and support industrial value creation in Europe. A key milestone in digitalization was the introduction of a “digital twin” for E.ON’s 700,000-kilometer German power grid, enabling connection requests to be processed in seconds and accelerating grid expansion.
