4 SUSTAINABILITY REPORT ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
[E1-4-AR 30-(c)] → A diverse range of climate scenarios have been considered to detect relevant environmental-, societal-, technological-, market- and policy-related developments and determine the decarbonisation levers Airports wishing to reach ACA level 4 are required to adopt decarbonisation targets for their internal emissions in line with the Paris Agreement, which sets the goal "to hold the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and pursue efforts “to limit the temperature increase to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels (...)". In this context, airports are strongly advised to follow the 1.5°C scenario when defining their absolute emissions reduction target. However, it is understood that airports face different operational and regulatory challenges and regional disparities that may encourage or prevent them from setting very ambitious targets. Therefore, to recognise airports' alignment with the Paris Agreement, the CBA allows airports to set decarbonisation targets that are at least aligned with the 2°C scenario. In setting their absolute decarbonisation targets, airports are required, depending on the scenario chosen, to respect a trajectory aligned with the data in the table above describing the ACA targets. Work is in progress to consider and develop the levers and actions that can be put in place at hub level to ensure that these targets are properly monitored. These trajectories and action plans are audited by an independent third party as required by ACA level 4 accreditation. Ambition for a carbon-neutral territory Groupe ADP is aware of the importance of its role in reducing its external emissions and is committed to accelerating this process. In fact, based on emissions calculated in 2023, when cruise emissions from departing flights are included, Groupe ADP's Scope 3 represents 99.3% of total CO 2 emissions. Echoing this, Groupe ADP has set itself the ambition of taking on board the value chain to make Paris airports "carbon neutral territories" by 2050, taking into account emissions from departing flights above 3,000 feet. This ambition therefore covers Scopes 1 & 2, all ground emissions on the platform, aircraft emissions below 3,000 feet (Landing and Take-Off cycle) as well as cruise emissions for departing flights. It thus goes beyond the SBTi commitment which, by methodological construction, does not take into account emissions from aircraft flying above 3,000 feet. [Report] Decarbonisation commitments of non-financially controlled subsidiaries All the signatories of the Airports for Trust charter (list of charter signatories available in the Environmental Challenges section) have undertaken to be neutral 1 on the scope of internal GHG emissions (Scopes 1 and 2). Moreover, Groupe ADP has set a "Net-Zero Emissions" target for internal emissions at several of the airports not controlled by the Group:
Several of Groupe ADP's non-controlled airports are part of the ACA programme. This information is presented in the infographic in section [E1-4-32] → Tracking effectiveness of policies and actions through targets [see ESRS 2 MDR-T]. They are also implementing energy transition policies. For example: u Santiago de Chile Airport (Chile) continues to prepare for the implementation of an energy management system that also allows it to be ISO 50001 certified, with the help of Groupe ADP's central teams; u Zagreb Airport (Croatia) has set itself the target of reducing its energy consumption by 20% between 2023 and 2030; u for Liège Airport from 2021 and Zagreb Airport from 2022, the electricity consumed will be 100% renewable, thanks to the use of market solutions; u in Madagascar, actions to develop renewable energies have already been put in place, in particular the use of solar energy for the lighting of the vehicle parking lot at Nosy Be Airport (since the end of 2017) and the parking lot of the new terminal at Ivato Airport (since early 2019). E1-5 – Energy consumption PARIS AIRPORTS The Centrales Thermo-Frigo-Électrique (CTFE) at the Paris airports supply heat, cold and electricity to Aéroports de Paris SA's terminals and customers. Heat is produced by: u two biomass boilers and gas boilers at Paris-Charles de Gaulle; u deep geothermal energy, recovery of waste heat from the Rungis MIN incinerator and gas-fired boilers at Paris-Orly; u a heat pump and gas boilers at Paris-Le Bourget. Emergency generators are connected to the electricity network of the Paris hubs. They are used in the event of a power cut from RTE or ENEDIS. As part of their maintenance, they are tested monthly to ensure they are working properly. Since 2021, 100% of the electricity purchased by the Paris hubs has been carbon-free with Guarantees of Origin. From 2020, Groupe ADP completed the purchase of certificates of guarantee of origin for its electricity supply through the contractualisation of purchase power agreements, direct purchase contracts with the producer to finance the construction of additional solar power plants. Cold is produced in the hubs by chillers and distributed by a cooling network. Finally, service and company vehicles, as well as airport maintenance equipment (such as de-icers and snow removers) are used by Groupe ADP employees in the course of their work. The Group is gradually making the transition to electric and low-emission vehicles across all its hubs. AIG GROUP AIRPORT (AMMAN) Heat production is marginal. The heat is produced by diesel powered boilers. Amman Airport is connected to the national electricity grid. Cooling is produced by electric air conditioning systems.
