Areva’s
Renewable
Energies
business
group
made
a
€59m
($77m)
loss
before
interest,
tax,
depreciaton
and
amortisation
(Ebitda)
in
2012,
compared
to
an
€85m
Ebitda
deficit
in
2011.
Areva’s
growing
offshore
wind
and
bioenergy
units
both
returned
positive
Ebitda
performances,
Areva
said,
but
the
renewables
business
as
a
whole
suffered
the
impact
of
execution
difficulties
at
unspecified
solar
projects.
Revenue
from
its
renewables
operations
grew
last
year,
delivering
€572m
to
the
group's
coffers
in
2012,
up
from
2011’s
€297m.
The
French
company
expects
that
to
grow
to
about
€1.25bn
by
2015/16.
