Eurazeo ’s new premises boast a high environmental performance (see p. 99). In 2017, Eurazeo worked with a specialized firm for carrying out an energy audit of its building. The assessment served to evaluate areas of improvement in terms of energy efficiency. As part of the ISO 50001 energy management certification process launched by the Novacap group, the Novapex site is rolling out an energy efficiency plan. In the space of 10 years, energy consumption per metric ton of finished product has been reduced by approximately 30%. An energy efficiency audit was conducted in 2015, giving a very positive assessment of the energy control of the industrial process. In addition, Novacarb has launched a project to reduce fuel consumption at its Pagny-sur-Meuse site (Meuse department, France). This project has allowed the site to reduce its fuel consumption by approximately 4% (24,000 liters) through the optimization of material flows and track design, eco-driving training and the replacement of gear. Vignal Lighting Group has taken numerous initiatives to improve the energy efficiency of its new industrial building in the municipality of Corbas (Lyons metropolitan area). The entire site benefits from a high level of thermal insulation. The “work” area has a cooling system with very low energy consumption, twice the regulatory minimum for natural lighting, and full LED lighting. Heat generated by the air system compressor is used to heat the work area. These actions have contributed to reductions of 17% in electricity consumption and 67% in gas consumption. As part of the Grape Hospitality group’s renovation campaign covering more than 2,000 hotel rooms, LED bulbs have been used to replace halogen bulbs. This will enable the group to save 2,000 MWh per year. On the Glion and Bulle campuses, Sommet Education has renovated the main kitchens, installing induction hobs, which are more efficient and consume less energy.

Neovia installed a new biomass boiler at Tres Coraçoes in Brazil in July 2017, replacing four gas boilers. This latest-generation boiler uses eucalyptus wood chips. It has been designed to support the increase in site activity, and has significantly reduced energy consumption relating to steam production. Similar projects are underway in Brazil, Mexico and Vietnam as part of Neovia’s energy transition program. All of Europcar ’s German, French and Italian sites, as well as the headquarters in France and Germany, are supplied with power derived from renewable sources. In 2017, Desigual conducted a study of its Spanish stores to better understand their energy profiles. The results identified actions to reduce their energy consumption, carbon emissions and associated costs. Desigual aims to replicate this experience in its German, French and Italian stores, as well as in its logistics platforms in Spain. The power consumed at Desigual headquarters in Spain and in its Spanish and German stores is derived exclusively from renewable sources.

Land use and prevention and mitigation measures taken to prevent soil discharges When a target company has production sites and/or uses dangerous products, Eurazeo integrates land use and impact studies into its due diligence.
