The revenue from the activity Sale of electricity for own account was 11.2 million euros for the first quarter of 2011, compared to 13 million euros for the first quarter of 2010, in line with the reduction of installed capacity for own account over these two periods. As of March 31, 2011, the installed capacity for own account amounted to 291 MW versus 319 MW as of March 31, 2010. The decrease is mainly due to the sale, in May 2010, of a 55.5 MW wind farm in Germany.

The revenue from the activity Operation amounted to 1.6 million euros, up 23% compared to the first three months of 2010. This increase is mainly due to the increase in capacity managed for third parties which went from 463 MW as of March 31, 2010 to 586 MW as of March 31, 2011.
The Non-wind activity registered revenue of 244 thousand euros for the first three months of 2011, produced by the solar park in Germany.
