: 2023 data verified by EY® & Associés. Limited assurance report issued by EY® & Associés is available on the Company’s website. Scope of reporting: Reported data covers 81 sites . Company’s environmental reporting guidelines include sites worldwide with a workforce on-site higher or equal to 100 employees. Only 100% consolidated entities are taken into account with the exception of ATR and Tianjin operations.
* Methodology and assumptions: Emissions restatements: 2019-2023 figures as well as 2015 baseline of related targets were restated following the refinement of emission factors. 2022 market-based scope 2 restatement also included the correction of REC accounting, mainly for four sites. Energy – Purchased electricity from renewable sources: Power Purchase Agreements ( “PPA” ) – it is a contract under which a legal entity agrees to purchase renewable electricity directly from an electricity producer. For the Company this means purchase of electricity from predefined renewable production facilities and/or purchase of electricity from renewable electricity generation facilities that can be built near to a Company site and that is connected to the site via and the direct wire. Energy – Purchased electricity from renewable sources REC/ GoO: Renewable Electricity Certificates ( “REC” ) or Guarantees of Origin ( “GoO” ) – is an energy certificate representing 1MWh which has the sole function of providing evidence to a final customer that a given share or quantity of energy was produced from renewable sources. For the Company, this represents the electricity bought from the grid with energy certificates evidencing that a given share or quantity of energy was produced from renewable sources. Air Emissions – Scope 1 & 2 – SAF emissions were computed according to the formula set by the ICAO and sustainability certificates.
Air Emissions – Scope 1 & 2 – “market-based” (location based net of REC): location based with purchased guarantees of origin deduced. The Company is working towards improving data collection and market-based methodology implementation. Meanwhile, this metric is used by the Company to measure its progress towards its 2030 target, in order to be able to take into account the contribution of its electricity sourcing on its industrial decarbonisation target. However, this refining of methodology is expected to trigger restatements in the coming years, including of the 2015 baseline). Air Emissions – Scope 3 – Use of sold products. The main contribution of the Company’s value chain on climate change comes from the use of sold products and the Company reports in-use emissions of the products it delivers (Scope 3 – Use of sold products). This started in 2020 with the disclosure of emissions from commercial aircraft products, and was extended to other products from 2021, namely civil helicopters initially and military aircraft and helicopters in 2022, further complemented by satellites in 2023. The Company will continue to progressively extend the scope of reporting to other families of products, for which the calculation methodologies are still under development. Nevertheless, current results and advanced estimations have shown that the vast majority (over 90%) of the Scope 3 – Use of Sold Product impact of the Company’s products is due to the commercial aircraft family of products, and that this situation is unlikely to change once all the product families will have been assessed.
