4.3.1 THE 2022-2025 ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY

From the four strategic environmental pillars of the Airports for Trust charter derive the following 15 commitments that materialize the implementation of a sustainable multimodal transport and energy infrastructure platform model in line with the needs of the regions in terms of energy, logistics, and real estate. Move towards operations with zero environmental impact: ◆ 1.1 implement the roadmap to achieve carbon neutrality for our internal emissions (scopes 1 & 2), on all our platforms by 2030 and Net-zero emissions [2030 (Orly, LBG) – 2035 (CDG) – 2050 (other committed platforms)]. This commitment accelerates Groupe ADP’s climate ambition for its internal emissions; ◆ 1.2 strengthen intermodality, reduce the use of cars, and strengthen connectivity with the regions. The actions relating to this commitment contribute to reducing the climate impact and pollutant emissions of mobility (access to platforms and intra-platform journeys); ◆ 1.3 become a carbon neutral region by 2050 (geographical scope – scopes 1 & 2 and all ground emissions – plus cruising emissions for departing flights). This commitment by the Group’s French airports is particularly disruptive, given the very broad scope of CO 2 emissions covered. It is based on a regulatory framework whose environmental ambition is growing (Fit for 55, National Low Carbon Strategy for the decarbonization of road mobility in France), and on the commitments made by the ICAO (in September 2022) and by IATA member airlines to become carbon neutral in global aviation by 2050; ◆ 1.4 avoid/reduce operational waste and maximize material recovery; ◆ 1.5 preserve the environment: water, soil, and biodiversity; reduce the biodiversity footprint of our value chain. This inclusion of the value chain echoes the biodiversity commitments made by the ADP Group in act4nature international. Actively participate in the environmental transition in the aviation sector: ◆ 2.1 bring together the conditions for receiving transitional technologies (SAF) and technological breakthroughs (hydrogen and electricity). This role of facilitating the environmental transition of air transport, played by airports, is key to the success of the commitments made by airlines; ◆ 2.2 contribute to the improvement of operations (ground handling, taxiing, flight phase of the LTO cycle), resulting in the decarbonization of aviation activities on the airport perimeter, the improvement of air quality, and the reduction of air traffic noise; ◆ 2.3 contribute to exemplary environmental work in the aviation sector (fight against the trafficking of protected species, waste reduction, etc.).

Groupe ADP’s environmental ambition has been part of a systemic CSR trajectory for many years. Historically, Groupe ADP has included this ambition in its successive environmental and energy policies, the latest covering the period 2016-2021. They have mainly made it possible to structure concrete commitments in line with European ambitions in terms of sustainable development and in line with the national environmental and energy transition strategy. This environmental ambition is now reaffirmed and anchored at the heart of the strategic vision 2025 Pioneers of the Group. Fully aware of the responsibilities conferred on it by its business lines as well as the urgent need to deepen and strengthen its commitments in terms of the environment, Groupe ADP adopted in 2021 a new “Airport for Trust” charter, signed and supported by the majority of the airports of the groups around the world (Aéroports de Paris, TAV, AIG, Zagreb, Liege Airport, and Ravinala). In 2022, Groupe ADP adopted the 2025 Pioneers strategic roadmap, backed by a new 2022-2025 CSR policy: 2025 Pioneers For Trust. In particular, it enables the group’s actions in favour of the environment to be extended across the entire life cycle and value chain, in France and internationally. The new environmental policy addresses major issues such as climate, biodiversity and the scarcity of natural resources, to build a new sustainable and efficient airport model that is in line with these challenges and that extends to the scale of all airports that are signatories to the Airports for Trust charter. This new environmental policy includes four broad environmental ambitions , common to all airports in this network: ◆ strive for zero environmental and energy impact in operation within our scope of responsibility (extended to concessionaires); ◆ actively participate in the environmental transition of the aviation sector and provide airside greening solutions; ◆ promote the integration of each airport into a system of local resources; ◆ reduce the environmental footprint of airport activity improvement and development projects. This roadmap incorporates a structural approach as follows: ◆ environmental transformation: from the positioning of our business to our operating methods and construction methods; ◆ inclusion in the regions: by reducing pollution on our platforms, and by being part of comprehensive urban planning (real estate, energy, and use of cars).
