TCFD REPORT 2021 TACKLING CLIMATE CHANGE 21 PUTTING CLIMATE AT THE HEART OF OUR BUSINESS STRATEGY In the context of the BPCE 2024 strategic plan, GWF has made it possible to measure climate impact and set targets for all the activities within the scope of Corporate & Investment Banking. GWF has also helped to apply these targets to each of the large key sectors (8 industries) and geographical platforms (EMEA, Asia and the Americas) using two indicators: the GWF score mix and a temperature gauge. The GWF also calculates financing footprint in absolute terms and carbon intensity on a line-by-line basis within the same scope. Green and sustainable product development Renewable energy financing Renewable energy production is a central component of the solutions used to tackle climate change. In this respect, Natixis plays an active role in Europe and Latin America. In particular, the infrastructure financing teams of the Corporate & Investment Banking (CIB) division financed 19 new transactions in 2020. This represented an installed capacity of 6,510MW for an amount of €1.5bn arranged by Natixis. In 2020, renewable energy accountedfor87%ofCIB’sfinancinginthepowergenerationsector. NATIXIS: SOLE COORDINATOR OF THE GREEN LOAN FOR THE LARGEST FLOATING OFFSHORE WIND FARM IN THE WORLD As part of the “Kincardine” project providing for the construction of a floating wind farm in the south-east of Aberdeen (Scotland), with an installed capacity of 50MW, Natixis acted as the sole coordinator of the green loan to finance the project amounting to £380m. Kincardine is composed of six turbines installed on semi-submersible platforms and will be the world’s largest floating offshore wind farm. Thanks to the certification process carried out by Natixis, the project’s financing obtained the “Certified Climate Bond” label from the Climate Bonds Initiative (CBI). Sustainable mobility financing Mobility is crucial to human development. It allows access to housing, employment, healthcare, education and culture. However, travel has an impact on climate change, air quality, the use of fossil fuels, biodiversity, and health. Transport growth projections expect the number of air passengers to double by 2040 and that there will be nearly two billion vehicles in circulation by 2050. In its Special Report, the International Energy Agency (IEA) (see footnote) found that 2050 carbon neutrality can only be achieved if, among other things, no more combustion engine cars are sold worldwide after 2035 and long-haul air travel does not exceed its 2019 level. Natixis is committed to supporting the sustainable mobility solutionsrequiredforthistransitionthroughitsfinancingandinvestmentactivities 1 . 87%of renewable energy projects financed in 2020 1.
