“Infrastructure for personal mobility, cycle logistics” (6.13) and “Infrastructure for rail transport” (6.14) activities

not aligned for the moment, but will be increasingly aligned in the coming years. The renovation activity refers to structural work aimed at reducing the building’s primary energy demand by 30%: no investment of this type is concerned for the 2022 financial year. The analysis of building ownership activity requires ameasurement of the alignment of each building owned by the Group, and requires access to the Energy Performance Assessment (DPE) data. A significant portion of these DPEs is being reviewed, in the context of the tertiary decree. However, it was possible to identify a few aligned buildings, because they have a class A DPE and/ or have an office-type activity whose consumption is part of the top 15% of the French office building stock 1 . It should be noted that currently, no similar benchmark exists at the national level for buildings with activities similar to airport terminals. In addition to the aforementioned activities, the taxonomy also includes activities that improve energy efficiency through the installation, operation and maintenance of more energy-efficient equipment and/or equipment enabling the energy performance of buildings to be measured, regulated and supervised. Investments for new energy-efficient equipment are in the majority of cases aligned: the equipment concerned belongs to the highest energy classes and an asbestos technical file has been prepared. However, this new equipment is sometimes included in a larger renovation or redevelopment investment, in which case it is difficult to isolate the share concerned. In these cases, the Group preferred not to retain the investments concerned. Regarding the specific case of equipment such as energy-efficient light sources, the regulations do not specify whether equipment of this type installed outdoors would be concerned. As a precautionary measure, Groupe ADP has not included investments of this type, although a major 100% LED outdoor deployment program has been put in place. The remote metering and regulation instruments (activity 7.5) are easily identifiable and the corresponding investments are aligned. Finally, activities associated with the installation and repair of electric charging stations are eligible and all investments concerned are aligned. “Energy and water” activities (4.9, 4.15, 4.16, 4.22, 4.24, 5.1 and 5.3) This includes energy production, construction and operation of heating and cooling networks and electricity distribution. It also includes the construction, operation and renewal of catchment/ collection, treatment and water distribution networks (rainwater, wastewater, drinking water, and pressurized water). For the Group, these activities involve the installation and operation of electric heat pumps, the production and distribution of cold, the production and distribution of heat from geothermal energy and bioenergy, the production of electricity from photovoltaic panels and the distribution of high, medium and low voltage electricity.

The “Infrastructure for personal mobility, cycle logistics” activity covers the construction, the modernization, the maintenance and operation of infrastructure for the mobility of people, including the construction of roads, motorway bridges and tunnels and other infrastructure for pedestrians and bicycles, with or without electric assistance. Groupe ADP has invested in the construction and extension of cycle paths, which are aligned activities. The “Infrastructure for rail transport” activity includes the construction, modernization, operation and maintenance of surface and underground railways as well as bridges and tunnels, stations, terminals, rail service facilities and safety and traffic management systems. For Groupe ADP and, in particular, for the Parisian platforms, this activity concerns reception infrastructures linked to rail transport access (TGV, RER, metro, CDG Express), engineering structures associated with rail transport (tunnels), and intra-platform rail infrastructure (VAL at Paris-Orly and Paris-Charles de Gaulle). Concerning the technical review criteria, European regulations are not exhaustive on the “railway transport-related station components” concerned, which makes it difficult to analyse the alignment of some of the Group’s investments. For other investments, which are co-investments with the railway infrastructure manager, provided that the latter has put in place the necessary measures to ensure that the system as a whole complies with Directive 2002/49/EC on noise and vibrations caused by the use of infrastructure, it can be considered that the investments made by the Group are aligned. In addition, the Group is committed to an environmental quality approach throughout the works, which requires all stakeholders to comply with the requirements of ISO 14 001, particularly in terms of waste treatment. These requirements are contractually transcribed in the site environmental specifications, which requires each subcontractor to commit to a Waste Monitoring and Elimination Organization Plan. “Real estate” activity (7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, 7.6, 7.7) This includes the construction, renovation, upkeep and maintenance of buildings owned by Groupe ADP (excluding land), i.e. mainly: passenger terminals, cargo terminals, aircraft maintenance hangars and buildings relating to the real estate diversification activity (hotels, offices, business buildings, etc.). Concerning the construction of new buildings, the substantial contribution criteria of the taxonomy are stricter than the requirements of the French RT 2012 regulation; on the other hand, the RE 2020 would be aligned with the requirements of the Taxonomy but no construction project falls within the scope of this legislation. This explains why the group’s investments are
