ESG / Sustainability Report / 2022 ESG / Sustainability Report / 2022 From Sustainable Procurement to asset end FOCUSED ON OUR IMPACT: THE CALCULATION Scope 2 emissions), business trips (by plane, train and center emergency generators in 2022, a higher of life OF OUR CARBON FOOTPRINTferry) and employee commuting. level of refills of refrigerant gas in 2022 and the improvement in the consumption measurement and GRI 305-1 GRI 305-2 GRI 305-3data collection process intended to fine-tune the GRI 306-1 306-2 The results precision of the data shared with stakeholders. The starting point for the implementation of a proper In 2022, Engineering’s total greenhouse gas emissions In 2022, we moved forward with our green procurement environmental impact reduction strategy is measuring the (Scope 1 + 2 + 3) amounted to 55,939 tCO . One new Lastly, as regards Scope 3 emissions, they process with a view to collaborating with suppliers that 2 company’s carbon footprint. The footprint is quantified factor in the calculation of the 2022 Carbon Footprint increased by 48,115 tCO , from 1,451 tCO to 49,566 share the principles of environmental sustainability and 2 2 on the basis of internationally recognized technical and compared to previous years is the measurement of tCO . This increase is justified by the introduction social responsibility and offer us quality products and 2 scientific criteria and standards in order to obtain an greenhouse gas emissions linked to the purchase of into the calculation of emissions linked to the services. To this end, in contracts as well as in supply objective result that can be repeated over the years. goods and services (GHG Protocol category 1) and purchase of goods and services, which alone tenders, starting from 2021 we introduced environmental those linked to fuels and energy not included in Scopes totaled 36,352 tCO2 (what particularly impacts the sustainability requirements for purchases, which today The Carbon Footprint is the main environmental indicator 1 and 2 (GHG Protocol category 3), bearing witness to weight of this category, given the specific nature of represent a weighting element in the supplier selection capable of quantifying an organization’s impact on climate Engineering’s efforts aimed at continuous improvement Engineering’s activities, is services, which amount process. Furthermore, as of September 15, 2022, a new change in terms of direct and indirect CO emissions: a in understanding its environmental impacts and, as a to 32,657 tCO out of the total), and those relating version of our “General Purchase Conditions” was made 2 2 figure which makes it possible to identify the activities result, in the direction of mitigating them. In 2021, Scope to fuels and energy (not included in the calculation available, which in Article 11.12 contain an “ESG clause” characterized by a greater “footprint” throughout the entire 1, 2 and 3 greenhouse gas emissions (which did not yet of Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions). The final result that refers to “ethical conduct and compliance with social value chain. The following were included in the calculation consider emissions linked to categories 1 and 3, but only was also influenced by growth in emissions linked responsibility ESG principles”. Moreover, all suppliers of Engineering’s Carbon Footprint: those linked to GHG Protocol categories 6 and 7) instead to business travel and employee commuting, already surveyed will be invited to view the amendment amounted to 10,116 tCO . triggered by the fine-tuning of the analysis and an introduced through the ongoing ESG campaign. 2 - Scope 1 direct emissions from stationary combustion improvement in the data collection process.In 2021, an initial large tender was announced that Environmental (generated by the combustion of natural gas for Analyzing the results in detail, it can be seen that the heating the offices and the diesel used for Data Center Scope 2 market-based emissions were reduced by 2,466 In 2023, with the Decarbonization project assigned a very significant score to product environmental emergency generators), mobile combustion (generated tCO (-73%), from 3,400 tCO2 to 934 tCO . Engineering mentioned elsewhere, the goal of extending sustainability. This resulted in the signing of a two-year 22 by the company vehicle fleet, fueled for the most part achieved this result thanks to lower Data Center greenhouse gas emission monitoring to the foreign agreement, with the possibility of extension, for the with diesel and to a lesser extent with gasoline) and the electricity consumption (also linked to the effects of companies is being pursued. gradual replacement of the more than 12,000 existing EnvironmentalEnvironmentalsupply of refrigerant gas for the data centers;energy efficiency projects) and a larger share of energy personal computers with new laptops (95% of our future - Scope 2 indirect emissions from the consumption of coming from renewable sources. workstations) that are 91% recyclable. The contract also electricity acquired from the network and used at the calls for the supply of other types of accessory products. Group’s offices and 5 Data Centers (Pont-Saint-Martin, Scope 1 emissions on the other hand increased by One of the parameters that led to the selection of a specific Assago, Vicenza, Fiumicino and Turin);174 tCO (+3%), from 5,265 tCO to 5,439 tCO . This supplier was its publicly formalized commitment to the 222 - Scope 3 indirect emissions from activities associated growth was caused by an increase in liters of natural decarbonization of its activities, which in the medium term with the purchase of goods and services, fuels and gas consumed by the company vehicle fleet in 2022, will result in GHG emissions close or equal to zero. The energy (not included in the calculation of Scope 1 and an increase in liters of diesel consumed by the data tender assigned demonstrates Engineering’s desire to seek out a balance between economic, environmental and product quality factors. In 2022, the Group decided to Total Greenhouse Emissions Group Italy (tCo ) follow up on this sustainability commitment by purchasing 2 3000 laptops. The calculation of emissions was developed in line with the 5.439GHG Protocol, using the emissions factors taken from the following reference documents, in the most recent versions In 2022, Engineering procured monitors to set up roughly 934available: 2000 workstations at the offices as workers returned • DEFRA – Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs following the pandemic.
