Regulated business operating costs
Controllable fixed costs23 (€453 million) fell by €3 million (-0.7%) compared with 2011.
Variable costs (€48 million) rose by €30 million compared with 2011, due mainly to withdrawals of gas from the storage system in connection with balancing activities (€44 million).
Other costs, of €510 million, mainly consist of the costs of construction and upgrading of distribution infrastructure (€325 million), recorded pursuant to IFRIC 12, and of expenses offset in revenue primarily relating to connection costs (€46 million). Excluding the effects of IFRIC 12 and of components offset in revenue, other costs totalled €136 million, up by €50 million compared with 2011, due mainly to higher provisions for risks.
Non-regulated business operating costs
Non-regulated business operating costs (€118 million) rose by €92 million compared with 2011, due mainly to withdrawals from storage in relation to the sale of assets not essential to transportation activities.
