types of hazard areas are analysed related to temperature (frost and cold spells, extreme heat, cooling/heating requirements), the related windward (winter storm, cyclonic, hail/lightning/ tornadoes), water (river flooding, coastal flooding, extreme precipitation, drought episodes) and land/ground movements (landslide). This analysis also considers the speed of onset of such risks, which should enable the Company to better prioritise related mitigation plans.
Resilience of industrial operations in the context of climate change To evaluate physical risks linked to climate change for industrial operations (see Risk Management above), the Company is now conducting a more detailed assessment of the consequences on affected sites. The approach includes a preliminary vulnerability analysis with digital filtering to classify and prioritise risk areas, followed by field visits with the support of external experts. Four
Tracking progress and performance In 2023, scope 1 & 2 GHG emissions have decreased by around 15% (-15% on TCO scope), exceeding the target, primarily due to three factors: a reduction of gas usage by switching from gas to electricity on certain heating systems and the optimisation of cogeneration in Germany, mild weather conditions during the year and the adjustment of the ramp-up.
