Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) (1)

In 2020, EDF was one of the main contributors to the SASB “Globalization Project” (3) , which remains to this day, for certain subjects, specific to the American market, particularly in terms of the environment or regulation. For items for which the standard is identical ( e.g. GHG protocol) or close to the standards used in France and Europe, EDF’s Statement of Non-Financial Performance Statement in 2020 covers most of the reporting topics required by SASB for the “Electric Utilities & Power generators” sector: Greenhouse Gas Emission & Energy Resources Planning: sections 3.1.1.2.2, ● 3.1.1.3.1, 3.1.1.3.2, 3.1.1.3.3, 3.1.1.3.4; Air Quality: section 3.3.1.5; ● Water Management: section 3.2.3; ●

Created in 2011, SASB (Sustainability Accounting Standards Board, SASB) is an independent, non-profit standard-setting body that develops and maintains reporting standards enabling companies around the world to identify, manage and communicate material

non-financial and financial information to investors. The SASB standards are evidence-based, developed with broad market participation and are designed to be beneficial to companies and useful to investors. SASB has established standards specific to 77 industry sectors identified in its Sustainable Industry Classification System® (SICS®). EDF is the first European energy company to act as an advisor within the SASB organisation (2) . As such, EDF is proactively involved in the process of revising this standard to enable its use worldwide.
