u rail transport infrastructure (6.14); u low-carbon airport infrastructure (6.17); u installation, maintenance and repair of energy efficiency equipment (7.3); u installation, maintenance and repair of charging stations for electric vehicles and in buildings (7.4). [E1-3-AR 22] → Explanation of any potential differences between the significant OpEx and CapEx amounts disclosed under ESRS E1 and the key performance indicators disclosed under Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178 Among the significant capital expenditure contributing to the implementation of the transition plans, the operations relating to the maintenance of the geothermal system at Paris-Orly and the deployment of a geothermal system at Paris-Charles de Gaulle could not be shown to be aligned 4.2.1.3 Developing new energy sources MDR-P – Key contents of the policy [2-MDR-P-65-(a)] → Description of the key contents of the policy On 16 February 2022, Groupe ADP presented its strategic roadmap for building the foundations of a sustainable, high performance airport model. Called 2025 Pioneers, this strategic roadmap defines the Group's priority transformation actions for the period 2022-2025. In this context, the achievement of the strategic ambition to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from air transport is based in part on the ability of airports to massively distribute a variety of decarbonised or low-carbon energy vectors such as electricity, sustainable aviation fuels, hydrogen and bio sourced liquid or gaseous fuels, and to have recourse to low carbon heat sources such as geothermal energy. Airports, with their own energy transition challenges and those of their territories and stakeholders, have many assets to act as catalysts for the development of these "new energy sources". The airports must initiate their transformation into "energy hubs" able to distribute this new energy in very large quantities and at a competitive cost. [2-MDR-P-65-(b)] → Description of the scope of the policy or its exclusions Groupe ADP's policy to promote the development of new energy sources is in line with the 2025 Pioneers strategic roadmap. This policy is global in scope, including international hubs. Groupe ADP is involved in a number of initiatives aimed at reducing the emissions from air transport, in collaboration with other players in the sector's value chain. These players include the regulator, energy suppliers, aircraft manufacturers, engine manufacturers and airlines. [2-MDR-P-65-(c)] → Description of the most senior level of the organisation that is accountable for the implementation of the policy The Board of Directors sets the strategic guidelines for Groupe ADP’s activities and oversees their implementation. It is dedicated to the long-term creation of value by the Company, taking into account its purpose and the social and environmental impacts of its activities. The Chairman of the Board of Directors is also responsible for the general management of the company.
(certificate of required equipment) with the taxonomy (CapEx 2024: €14.9 million). Moreover, a number of operations involving the installation or maintenance of lighting equipment (LED lighting) to promote energy efficiency on the road network or aeronautical areas are not taken into account in the green taxonomy report. These operations are not eligible for the Taxonomy because they have no impact on a building's energy performance (CapEx 2024: €3.5 million). Lastly, as regards operational expenditure (OpEx), the analysis based on the 2024 consolidated financial statements led to the conclusion that the "OpEx Taxonomy" represent less than 6% of the Group's operating expenses. Consequently, it is not material with regard to the Group's business model and, in accordance with the regulation, the eligible portion has not been calculated (see Green Taxonomy section). [2-MDR-P-65-(d)] → Disclosure of third-party standards or initiatives respected through the implementation of the policy As an airport operator, Groupe ADP is concerned by regulatory and legislative initiatives aimed at reducing the environmental footprint of air transport and combating global warming: u at the global level, the adoption of a carbon neutrality target for international aviation by 2050 by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) is an ambitious long-term objective for the reduction of CO 2 emissions. Achievement of this objective will be based on a basket of measures based mainly on the use of sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) and on the implementation of an offsetting mechanism known as the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation, or CORSIA, allowing the offsetting, from 2021 as part of a pilot phase, of all emissions exceeding the reference year of 2019. These commitments were reaffirmed in 2023 at the third Conference on Aviation and Alternative Fuels (CAAF/3), whose work led to the adoption of a global framework for sustainable aviation fuels (on 29 November 2023 in Dubai); u at the European level, the negotiations on the “Fit for 55” package, the objective of which is to reduce net greenhouse gas emissions by 55% by 2030, have made significant progress in aviation with the adoption of several regulations applicable to the sector; u regulation (EU) 2023/1804 of 13 September 2023 on the deployment of an infrastructure for alternative fuels, known as "AFIR", which requires airports to offer an electrical power supply on all contact aircraft stands located next to a terminal by 2025 and for remote stands by 2030; u regulation (EU) 2023/2405 of 18 October 2023 on the establishment of a level playing field for a sustainable air transport sector known as “ReFuelEU Aviation” which imposes a minimum rate of progressive incorporation of sustainable aviation fuels by aviation fuel suppliers at EU airports;
