2023 UNIVERSAL REGISTRATION DOCUMENT

• The commercial complex for Crédit Mutuel in Laxou, near Nancy, featuring a 12,000 sq. metre office building with a wooden structure and a 400-space silo car park built in concrete. The project aims to achieve the E+C− (Energy 2 and Carbon 1) label and BREEAM® Very Good certification.
• Le Next, an office complex in Paris-Saclay comprising 7,000 sq. metres of office space and a university restaurant. The project is eligible for BREEAM® Very Good, NF HQE™ Excellent, OsmoZ and E+C− (Energy 2 and Carbon 1) certification.
• The emblematic project to renovate the Royal Mansour Hotel in Casablanca, Morocco, which aims for BREEAM® and LEED® certification. The new building will be converted into a high-rise built to the best international standards.

Customers are also increasingly interested in BiodiverCity® certification:

• The Jardin des Sens programme in Vaucresson, delivered in July 2023, received the BiodiverCity® label. The complex develops agroforestry and recovers heat produced by the A86 motorway tunnel to supply 50% of the heating needs for the residential units.
• The Link, TotalEnergies’ future head office in La Défense, is in the running for the BiodiverCity®, Effinergie+ and NF HQE™ labels as well as a Sustainable Building Passport in the Exceptional performance range, BREEAM® Excellent, LEED Core & Shell at the Platinum level and WELL Building Standard™ Core & Shell at the Silver level.
• Les Terrasses, a residential development in the western Paris suburb of Ville d’Avray, which includes 125 new homes and the renovation of the Domaine de la Ronce shopping centre featuring a 19,000 sq. metre wooden superstructure and low-carbon concrete, has also applied for the BiodiverCity® label, as well as certifications such as HQE™ Bâtiment Durable, BREEAM® Excellent, and Energy 2 and Carbon 1 under the E+C− label.
• The Athletes’ Village in Saint-Denis, part of VINCI Immobilier’s Universeine project, aims for high-level certifications for new commercial buildings, such as HQE™ Bâtiment Durable, BREEAM® Excellent, BiodiverCity®, and Energy 2 and Carbon 2 under the E+C− label.

Several projects received awards in 2023 for their environmental management:

• The project to build the City Rail Link tunnel in Auckland (New Zealand) earned the highest rating from the Infrastructure Sustainability Council, with a score of 93.
• As part of the HS2 railway programme in the United Kingdom, the Old Oak Common station project was recognised by the Green Apple Awards, which promote environmental best practices around the world.

3.1.4 Launching the environmental transition

In order to deliver on its environmental ambition, VINCI needs both strategic vision and high engagement in environmental issues from all its employees. The rollout of training and awareness actions within all Group activities reflects efforts to share best practices and pass knowledge on to others at every level.

3.1.4.1 Employee engagement around environmental solutions and actions

2023 Environment Day and launch of the 2024 Environment Awards

With the overarching goal of amplifying environmental actions, VINCI’s 2023 Environment Day provided the opportunity for each manager to sit down with their team members and discuss the initiatives taken within their business line to meet the targets of the environmental ambition. About 85,000 employees participated in the event, which featured talks and awareness actions across all the Group’s business lines.

For the first Environment Day in September 2020, VINCI launched the Environment Awards, a year long Group wide contest empowering employees to play an active role in VINCI’s environmental ambition. This programme, which is aimed at singling out and promoting local environmental initiatives, garnered the participation of more than a quarter of VINCI employees (over 57,000 employees voted for the best initiatives on the internal website environnement.vinci.com). Taking full advantage of its decentralised model, a connected network of more than 800 correspondents and experts was formed to coordinate the Environment Awards at the Group’s various geographical locations. Nearly 200 initiatives were recognised within the established regional divisions, and 14 of them won awards in the final round in 2021. These winners included several projects that contribute to reducing the direct environmental impact of Group operations, along with innovative solutions for customers to promote energy efficiency, reuse and land rehabilitation.

In 2023, efforts were focused on the continued rollout of the winning initiatives from the 2021 Environmental Awards externally. Five key solutions were measured quantitatively for their environmental benefits, with the process involving a critical review by an outside firm. The rollout of these five solutions has avoided or reduced the emission of 49,000 tonnes of CO2 equivalent, produced 83,000 tonnes of recovered materials, and avoided the consumption of 250,000 cu. metres of water, while generating €60 million in revenue since 2022. These projects were:

• the Exegy® brand, which aims to increase the use of low-carbon concrete and has been implemented on several iconic Group projects in France, the United Kingdom and the United States by the end of 2023 (see paragraph 3.2.2.1, “Actions to reduce indirect emissions”, page 239); SunMind, a solution for the development and financing of projects for solar photovoltaic power plants, whether for self consumption or injection into the grid, on behalf of service sector or industrial customers;
• the Group’s low carbon motorway maintenance solution, which facilitates on-site recycling and the reuse of leftover asphalt;
• Reve, an eco-friendly EV charging system installed in commercial buildings and powered by rooftop solar panels, with the solar energy stored in second-hand batteries;
• PowerRoad®, an innovative solution that captures heat from a road surface or car park and either releases it immediately or stores it via a geothermal process to heat facilities and buildings. Preparations for the next Environment Awards were launched in December 2023. This event provides a way of bringing long term support to projects that create value while reducing or avoiding environmental impacts on a larger scale.
