Average temperatures in 2017-2022
The weather in the period under review represented a Group-level heating potential comparable to the corresponding period in 2022 and to the average of recent years.
A comparison of the 2022 Q4 heat sales figures with the average values of the same period in historical years indicates that PannErgy accomplished record heat sales in the period under review, exceeding the base period value by 5.3%. PannErgy also exceeded the quarterly target by approximately 0.7%. This outstanding performance was primarily due to appropriate weather conditions and the Group's ongoing investments into increasing efficiency, operational safety and capacity expansion.
In consideration of the information presented in this production report, PannErgy projects the overperformance of the consolidated HUF 3,250-3,350 million EBITDA target range published previously (30 March 2022) for the 2022 business year. Management expects consolidated EBITDA for 2022 to be in the range of HUF 3,600-3,650 million. The improvement in EBITDA is primarily attributable to reliable operation in 2022 Q4, strong sales data, efficient operations and regulated pricing that reflects the Company's cost increases.
- Fulfilment of the EBITDA plan for 2022 and EBITDA projection for 2023
The Company's management is defining a consolidated EBITDA target in the range of HUF 3,950-4,150 million under the IFRS for the business year of 2023. The planned quarterly heat sale volumes assigned to the target are presented in the table of Figure 2.
The above 2023 EBITDA target range represents an increase of approximately 12% compared to the expected range of the base period, which includes, inter alia, the impact of the implemented and ongoing capacity expansion and efficiency investments, including the successful boring of the third production well of the Miskolc Project in 2023 and its expected commissioning by the end of the year, as well as the recognition of the significant increases in material and personnel

Volume of heat sold in Miskolc (GJ)
The Geothermal System of Miskolc sold a total of 273,325 GJ of thermal energy in 2022 Q4, which is in line the average of the corresponding period of previous years, and is 5.1% higher than the heat sales achieved in the same period of 2021, mainly due to the impact of prolonged service failure during the base period.

Quarterly production report - 2022 Q4
The Geothermal System of Győr sold a historic seasonal record volume of 349,530 GJ of thermal energy in 2022 Q4, representing a rise of 5.8% year-on-year. The primary reasons for the increase were the investment activity in recent periods, appropriate weather conditions, as well as the Company's previously disclosed commercial agreement with GYŐR-SZOL Zrt. that ensures priority to geothermal energy.
Total annual heat sold in Győr in 2022 exceeded 1 million GJ (1,004,165 GJ) for the first time in PannErgy's history.

Figure 6
Volume of heat sold in Szentlőrinc (GJ)
In Szentlőrinc, the volume of heat sold in the period under review was 15.6% lower than in the baseline period (7,235 GJ). The Geothermal Facility of Szentlőrinc can fully meet the heat demand of the local district heating system on its own; thus the weather sensitivity of geothermal heat input and the sensitivity of end-user heat consumption to changes in the current energy crisis are significantly higher than that of district heating systems with complex heat resources. The decrease in the quarter under review is also due to these reasons.
The Company informs the public that from 2023 onwards, only projects with a sales performance of more than 5% of consolidated sales revenue will be detailed in this chapter. Accordingly, the Szentlőrinc Project is excluded from the group of major projects presented.
IV. Miscellaneous
