2.1.1 EU Taxonomy of environmentally sustainable activities
Building on the European Commission’s action plan on financing sustainable growth launched in 2018, Regulation (EU) 2020/852 of 18 June 2020, known as the Taxonomy Regulation, establishes a framework to facilitate sustainable investment with the aim of creating a “green list” of environmentally sustainable economic activities.
To comply with this regulation, the Group is required to disclose, for the 2025 financial year, the proportion of its Taxonomy-eligible activities that are aligned, in terms of their revenue, capital expenditure (CapEx) and operating expenditure (OpEx), to the following six environmental objectives:
-
Climate change mitigation
-
Climate change adaptation
-
Circular economy
-
Sustainable use of water and marine resources
-
Pollution prevention and control
-
Protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems
To qualify as sustainable, a Taxonomy-eligible activity must meet the following three criteria:
- Substantial contribution to an environmental objective
- No significant harm to any of the other five environmental objectives
- Minimum safeguards in the areas of human rights and governance
