The fragmentation and disruption of habitats caused by the footprint occupied by our facilities represent the main impact of Group activities (soil permeability compaction, interruption of ecological continuity, etc.).<br \/>\nThe largest of these footprints is imposed by <strong>gas storage facilities and pipelines<\/strong> (since these are underground, they do not contribute to fragmenting the land) and <strong>the reservoirs used for hydropower generation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conventional power generating plants<\/strong> impact on biodiversity through their atmospheric emissions of CO<sub>2<\/sub>, NOx, SO<sub>2<\/sub> and particulate matters, and their abstraction and discharge of water for process cooling.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wind farms<\/strong> are most disruptive to birds and bats.<\/p>\n<p>Environments favorable to the development of <strong>invasive exotic species<\/strong> can be created on worksites, especially during construction work. It is important to integrate this risk in the project phase.<\/p>\n<p>The main indirect impacts relate to the Group\u2019s sourcing of supplies, especially biomass.<\/p>\n<p>The protection of biodiversity is a component of the Group\u2019s development, along with the management of its risks and opportunities in terms of regulation and reputation. <strong>Poor consideration or anticipation of regulatory <\/strong>changes ever stronger or stakeholder expectations may cause <strong>delays or stoppages in our business<\/strong>, and therefore significant financial costs. <strong>The protection of biodiversity<\/strong> is fully involved in <strong>environmental and social responsibility<\/strong> of the Group and constitutes a strong challenge to the territorial base of its activity.<\/p>\n<p>In 2023, the Group will further analyze the impacts and dependencies of its activities on nature. This analysis, carried out with the support of ERM consulting, uses the LEAP approach (Locate-Evaluate-Assess-Prepare: <a href=\"https:\/\/tnfd.global\/publication\/additional-guidance-on-assessment-of-nature-related-issues-the-leap-approach\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Guidance on the identification and assessment of nature-related issues: the LEAP approach \u2013 TNFD<\/a>) recommended by the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (tnfd.global) for the identification and assessment of nature-related issues, and recommended by the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (<a href=\"https:\/\/eur-lex.europa.eu\/legal-content\/EN\/TXT\/?toc=OJ%3AL%3A2022%3A322%3ATOC&amp;uri=uriserv%3AOJ.L_.2022.322.01.0015.01.ENG\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Directive &#8211;

These commitments are designed according to 4 axes:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engie.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ENGIE-VA.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ENGIE\u2019s individual commitments to act4nature international<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Group&#8217;s commitments are organized around 4 key areas related to the major pressures on biodiversity.<\/p>\n<p>In 2024, ENGIE strengthened its site prioritization thresholds by expanding its identification criteria.<\/p>\n<p>Material priority sites are assessed based on five criteria defined according to five levels of criticality. The criteria are as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Proximity to protected areas: IUCN list (categories I to VI), Key Biodiversity Areas (KBA), the Man and the Biosphere (MAB) Programme, the World Database on Protected Areas (WDPA) including Ramsar and UNESCO sites (natural and mixed);<\/li>\n<li>IUCN Red List of Threatened Species; \u2022 Levels of ecosystem integrity (data from the Globio model);<\/li>\n<li>Areas of water stress;<\/li>\n<li>Sectoral classification of the impacts and dependencies of industrial activities. To this end, the Group used the results of the work evaluating the impacts and dependencies of various energy sector activities on biodiversity (Roadmap to Nature Positive: Foundations for the Energy System) carried out by the WBCSD (World Business Council for Sustainable Development) \u2013 to which ENGIE also contributed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Sites are identified as material priority sites if they meet at least four criteria listed above with a \u201cvery high\u201d criticality level.<\/p>\n<p>The list of material priority sites is included in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engie.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Universal-Registration-Document-2025.pdf#page=211\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ENGIE&#8217;s 2025 Universal Registration Document<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Axis 1 \u2013 Land footprint and ecological continuities<\/h2>\n<p>Through its various sites, ENGIE can contribute to the preservation of biodiversity by optimizing the use of its land footprint, restoring ecological corridors and reducing the presence of invasive alien species.<\/p>\n<p>In 2010, the Group fixed the goal of implementing a targeted action plan on all its priority sites in Europe by 2015. For the period 2016-2020, this objective has been integrated into the internal objective of integrated and concerted environmental management.<\/p>\n<p>For the period 2020-2030, ENGIE has stepped up its commitments to identify priority sites for biodiversity and has set an ecological management objective for all its industrial sites.<\/p>\n<h3>Ecological site management<\/h3>\n<p>For all of the Group\u2019s industrial activities, ENGIE is committed to implementing ecological management on its sites, which means, at a minimum, no use of phytosanitary products and differentiated management of green spaces.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engie.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/2025_Ecological_management_ENGIE_guidance.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Guidance on ecological management of sites<\/a><\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse;width: 100%;height: 92px\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"height: 24px\">\n<th style=\"width: 50%;height: 24px\">Objectives<\/th>\n<th style=\"width: 50%;height: 24px\">2025 Progress report<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 34px\">\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 34px\">2025: 50% of sites<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 68px\" rowspan=\"2\">As of the end of 2025, 100% of industrial sites are maintained without phytosanitary products and in compliance with local biodiversity programs.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 34px\">\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 34px\">2030: 100% of sites<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3>Solar parks and pollinators in the US<\/h3>\n<p>Since 2016, ENGIE NorthAmerica has incorporated revegetation as a standard element in the design of solar parks, using mixtures of grasses and flowering plants that grow naturally in the area, providing a pollinator-friendly ecosystem. These natural habitats protect the pollinator food chain. Flowers provide nectar for insects, birds eat seeds and insects, and plant stems and undergrowth ensure nesting and safety for all.<\/p>\n<p>Today, 58 distributed solar sites, representing 890 acres of plantation (~360 hectares), benefit from this good practice.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the positive effects on biodiversity, creating a dynamic ecosystem, the deep roots prevent soil erosion and degradation, and absorb more water. Site maintenance is reduced for the duration of the project.<\/p>\n<p>ENGIE is collaborating with BeeOdiversity and a local beekeeper to carry out a two-year study on the Sun Valley solar park (150 MW) in Texas, which prioritizes the planting of pollinator-friendly plant species: high-quality plants on 200 acres of land (~80 hectares) in its buffer zone, and low-growth plants within the site. The study involves collecting small quantities of pollen and analyzing them, using techniques based on environmental DNA, to identify the plant species in the area and detect the presence of chemicals. The aim of the study is to gain a better understanding of the types of plants present, to assess the diversity of the ecosystem and the success of the plantations. In addition, chemical analysis will determine whether bees are exposed to agricultural chemicals from the surrounding area.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/beeodiversity.com\/fr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Biodiversity as a solution | BeeOdiversity<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Action plans for priority sites and material priority sites<\/h3>\n<p>A priority site is defined as a site located in or near a biodiversity sensitive area (IUCN Categories I-VI, UNESCO Natural and Mixed, RAMSAR, MAB, KBA, Natura 2000).

In order to offset the loss of habitat for agricultural plain avifauna linked to the establishment of the wind farm, in 2016 ENGIE Green supported the planting of agroforestry trees on 18 hectares of Ardennes agricultural plots.<\/p>\n<p>This co-development (agroforestry and wind power) is beneficial for the soil and biological diversity, but also for the agricultural world and renewable energy.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The plantation of a little more than 4600 linear meters of noble wood trees of several species allows to welcome several species at different periods of the year.<\/li>\n<li>The grassy strips at the foot of the trees are very good refuges for insects and lowland species<\/li>\n<li>Water storage and filtering capacity of the soil (confirmed by the study of the hydrological and biogeochemical functions of the soil)<\/li>\n<li>Biomass creation and carbon storage<\/li>\n<li>Land more suitable for agriculture<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In order to verify the effectiveness of this action, ENGIE Green has launched, in 2019, an environmental monitoring of these plots in partnership with the French Association of Agroforestry and the Regroupement des Naturalistes Ardenais (ReNard).<\/p>\n<p>Among the results of this first year of monitoring, two striking results have already emerged:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Water infiltrates 11 times faster through trees than elsewhere.<\/li>\n<li>The number of insects per hectare is almost 4 times higher on agroforestry plots than on control plots, and specific diversity is more than 10 times higher.<\/li>\n<li>A 10-year agreement was signed with both parties to monitor the ecological and hydrogeological effects of this measure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Taking into account and protecting the environment is also a source of enhanced performance for the Group (reputation, internal mobilization, reduction in authorization procedures, enhancement of its assets, etc.). Feedback from Group action plans shows that some sites are going beyond the targets set by the Group. They are adopting proactive approaches aimed at involving and engaging the various stakeholders, such as the biodiversity project for differentiated management implemented at all gas storage sites in France.<\/p>\n<p>The actions carried out at these sites illustrate the wealth and diversity of initiatives that the Group can put in place to preserve and even improve biodiversity

Using cutting-edge drone technology developed in partnership with local start-up Distant Imagery, the restoration project has successfully planted more than 500,000 saplings over an area of 30 hectares. Using the innovative technique of using drones to plant mangrove saplings has not only protected the integrity of existing mangroves, but also facilitated ongoing restoration efforts in less densely populated areas. ENGIE began this collaboration with EAD and Distant Imagery in 2020, actively supporting the plantation&#8217;s progress over the following years:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2020: pilot planting phase of 2,000 seeds, achieving a success rate of 20-25%.<\/li>\n<li>2021: planting of 35,000 seeds, with a success rate of 30-35%.<\/li>\n<li>2022: planting of 150,000 mangroves, with a success rate of 40%.<\/li>\n<li>2023: planting of 300,000 mangroves, with a success rate of 40-45%.<\/li>\n<li>2024: intensified efforts by planting 567,200 mangrove seeds, with a targeted success rate of 40%.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This pioneering project is actively contributing to the health and well-being of marine ecosystems. Moreover, the restoration of the mangrove ecosystem is in line with the country&#8217;s Net Zero vision and strategy, aimed at contributing to its natural carbon sequestration targets and national biodiversity commitments, namely the planting of 100 million mangroves by 2030.<\/p>\n<h3>Regenerative agriculture in Brazil<\/h3>\n<p>The Regenera+ project is an initiative by ENGIE Brasil Energia and Sebrae RS to promote regenerative agriculture in the Passo Fundo hydroelectric power plant region. The project aims to strengthen the resilience, efficiency and sustainability of rural properties, while reducing production costs and carbon emissions. The project involved 17 rural producers and more than 10 professionals in agronomy, biology, ecology and the humanities. Training and monitoring of best agricultural practices and action plans were drawn up to meet 20 socio-environmental requirements.<\/p>\n<p>In the first year of operation, Regenera+ achieved a real reduction of 32.06% in cereal production costs, covering an agricultural area of 533.64 hectares. The properties presented a carbon emissions and absorptions balance of &#8211; 1,004.53 tonnes of CO<sub>2<\/sub>eq, demonstrating that overall, the properties absorb more carbon than they emit into the atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p>With regard to the application of organic inputs, 16,400 liters of syrups produced on the estates were applied. As early as the second year of intervention, monitoring of socio-environmental indicators revealed that 50% of the criteria assessed saw their score increase.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, 30% of the estates invested in equipment to improve the adoption of organic products.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/uicn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/sfn-securite-alimentaire.pdf#page=69\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Learn more about Regenera+ (in French only)<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Contributing to coastal reforestation in Bangladesh<\/h3>\n<p>The ENGIE Foundation is supporting the Friendship association in the reforestation of 14 hectares of mangroves to promote ecosystem and community resilience in Bangladesh. The project has a threefold purpose, acting on three levels:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>On the environment: planting 3,000 trees of at least five different varieties per hectare along rivers exposed to the tide significantly improves the biodiversity and productivity of these biotopes, both terrestrial and aquatic (crabs, shrimp, fish, fruit, honey, etc.).<\/li>\n<li>On the socioeconomic conditions of local communities: including the poorest river residents through an awareness-raising and capacity-building program helps develop their livelihoods and thus improve their living conditions. Understanding the importance of mangroves ensures that the planted trees will mature without being degraded by livestock or people driven by poverty. The continued involvement of local authorities and their cooperation with Friendship and the local communities ensure the long-term sustainability of the reforested areas.<\/li>\n<li>Resilience: Strengthening income-generating activities, on the one hand, and restoring mangrove forests, which will limit dike erosion and thus prevent the destruction of homes and the salinization of agricultural soils, on the other, have a combined and immediate impact: improving the adaptation capacities and resilience of the most vulnerable communities in the face of climate disasters.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>For more information :<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fondation-engie.com\/environnement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Biodiversity and the fight against global warming<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/friendship.ngo\/mangroves-against-the-climate-crisis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mangroves against the Climate Crisis<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Restoration of the functionality of the Vieux Rh\u00f4ne hydrosystem of P\u00e9age-de-Roussillon on the island of Graviers (France)<\/h3>\n<p>As part of its mission to restore the hydromorphological features of the Vieux Rh\u00f4ne, the Compagnie National du Rh\u00f4ne (CNR) has recreated flood expansion zones by restoring the ecological quality of the environment and improved the functionality of wetlands adjacent to the river (bio-purification role).<\/p>\n<p>The CNR has also recreated plant successions, promoted pioneer environments, renewed the aging alluvial forest, and recreated habitats for aquatic and semi-aquatic species by restoring the river dynamics of the Vieux Rh\u00f4ne and managing invasive alien species.<\/p>\n<p>The actions carried out have widened the river channel and reconnected wetlands to the watercourse. Although the Rh\u00f4ne continues to flood, damage from heavy rains is less.<\/p>\n<p>The return of a lively and flowing river has allowed the diversification of aquatic habitats as well as the recolonization of various aquatic species as well as the maintenance of habitats favorable to protected species already present around the river.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/uicn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/cfuicn_sfn_entreprises.pdf#page=29\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Learn more about the project (in French only)<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Contributing to the preservation of wetlands<\/h3>\n<p>As a committed local player, ENGIE has undertaken to contribute to the preservation of Ramsar-listed wetlands in the vicinity of its sites, in collaboration with the stakeholders concerned. This contribution may be financial or technical, depending on local needs.<\/p>\n<h4>Preserving the habitat of sandhill cranes in South Dakota<\/h4>\n<p>At ENGIE North America, preserving the health and safety of the environment in which the Group operates is crucial. The Group follows the voluntary U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Land-Based Wind Energy Guidelines to assess and address the biological impacts of wind projects. These implement a bird and bat conservation strategy, and all site employees are trained in this strategy. The Triple H wind project site in South Dakota conducted biological surveys prior to construction, which identified potential wetland habitat for migrating sandhill cranes. In April 2022, the wind site was informed by the Public Utility Commission that a group of migrating sandhill cranes and a pair of whooping cranes had been spotted in this wetland. Site operators responded by shutting down turbines in the area and hiring a biologist to monitor these endangered species until they continued their migration. Thanks to Triple H Wind&#8217;s implementation of the bird and bat conservation strategy and the permit agreement with the Public Utility Commission, these species have been protected.<\/p>\n<h4>Vegetated rafts installed on the lower basin of the Coo power plant (Belgium)<\/h4>\n<p>The Coo hydroelectric power plant is located in the Ambl\u00e8ve Valley in Belgium.

This operation, designed based on Nature-Based Solutions (NBS), involves restoring existing river ecosystems without the use of exogenous materials (such as concrete or steel). This project aims to create a 300m bypass arm of the Molottes weir, whose design is inspired by natural models. The latter follows the Fronde weir on its upstream section and is extended by a connecting arm connecting to the downstream section of the weir.<\/p>\n<p>The expected benefits for biodiversity are numerous: rejuvenation of the Fronde backwater, better resilience of aquatic ecosystems in the face of climate change, habitat gains for fish fauna, increase in water resources for the alluvial forest via better water\/groundwater exchanges, etc.<\/p>\n<p>For more information:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnr.tm.fr\/actualites\/une-nouvelle-passe-a-poissons-sur-le-seuil-des-molottes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">[FR] Une nouvelle passe \u00e0 poissons sur le seuil des Molottes<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Launch of ecological restoration work on the Rh\u00f4ne south of Lyon (France)<\/h4>\n<p>The CNR has begun major restoration work on the banks of the Rh\u00f4ne River south of Lyon. This work aims to restore water to the secondary branches of the river, known as \u201cl\u00f4nes\u201d, and recreate wetlands conducive to biodiversity. It also dismantled the historic &#8220;Girardon&#8221; spurs, which hindered the sediment dynamics of this part of the Rh\u00f4ne. Costing \u20ac8.2 million, the restoration work undertaken by the CNR, with financial support from the Rh\u00f4ne M\u00e9diterran\u00e9e Corse water agency, is expected to be completed in 2028. It will restore water to 5 kilometers of backwaters and secondary channels in the area. It will also create six islands and nearly 8 hectares of ponds and wetlands, reconnecting them to the Rh\u00f4ne and its alluvial aquifer.<\/p>\n<p>This is the largest operation of this nature carried out by the CNR on the Rh\u00f4ne since the launch of its ecological restoration program in 2000. This program, one of the most ambitious in the world, has already increased flow rates along 120 kilometers of natural watercourse between the Swiss border and the Mediterranean and rehabilitated more than 77 backwaters, for an investment of nearly \u20ac100 million.<\/p>\n<p>For more information:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnr.tm.fr\/actualites\/lancement-des-travaux-de-restauration-ecologique-du-rhone-au-sud-de-lyon\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">[FR] Lancement des travaux de restauration \u00e9cologique du Rh\u00f4ne au sud de Lyon<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Axis 3 \u2013 Value chain<\/h2>\n<p>Impacts on biodiversity are spread across the entire value chain.

The actions include, among others, monitoring and rescue of fauna and flora, archaeological survey and rescue, speleological survey, environmental education, construction control, social communication, recovery of degraded areas, environmental management and the action plan for malaria control.<\/p>\n<h3>Loregaz project, Loretto site in Ajaccio (Corsica, France)<\/h3>\n<p>The Loregaz project is an ENGIE project of public interest which aims at making the gas supply of the Ajaccio region sustainable. It consists in building 2 new gas tanks encased in concrete silos, replacing the current overhead tanks.<\/p>\n<p>Before the construction, Hermann&#8217;s turtles and the orchids Serapias neglecta and Serapias parviflora were moved, under control of an ecologist, in order to avoid that the future construction site impacts them. Subsequently, in the application of a conservation management, these species were the subject of inventories and monitoring.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, in order to offset the environmental impacts generated by the construction of the installation (on 2 hectares), ENGIE has associated with the Conservatoire des Espaces Naturels de Corse (CEN Corse) to manage, until 2038, 23 hectares of land suitable for the development of impacted species. The management of these offset areas, located in Loretto, Vignola and Suartello, has been entrusted to CEN Corse because of its expertise in the management of natural areas and its knowledge of local territories.<\/p>\n<p>This work on offsetting has given rise to a doctoral thesis, at the University of Corsica and the University of Paris Assas, which looks at how biodiversity is taken into account in corporate strategy. The thesis focuses on common species rather than protected species, which are at the root of the compensatory measures, thus providing a better understanding of the complexity of a natural ecosystem. In the same way, taking an interest in all the stakeholders involved in a compensation project enables us to appreciate the variety of skills mobilized to bring it to a successful conclusion.<\/p>\n<p>This work offers an interesting case study in which biodiversity has become a central cog in the organization of actions, first structured by obligation, then in a collective dynamic, necessary over the long term, via the creation of projects within the territory.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"block_e28e53a3d2a366aa614d6cfb82e0fe23\" class=\"cp-wysiwyg teq-container nj-aura nj-aura--white\">\n    <div class=\"teq-grid !pt-0\">\n        <div class=\"col-span-6 xl:col-start-2 xl:col-span-10 lg:col-start-1 lg:col-span-12 \">\n                        <div class=\"teq-wysiwyg\">\n                <div data-trad data-trad-html><h3>Supply chain<\/h3>\n<h4>Biodiversity criteria in Life Cycle Assessments<\/h4>\n<p>ENGIE is committed to integrating biodiversity criteria into life cycle assessments to carry out an in-depth analysis of the impacts and dependencies with regard to biodiversity for the Group\u2019s activities throughout the value chain, in order to identify the challenges and the appropriate solutions to meet them.<\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse;width: 100%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 50%\">Objectives<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 50%\">2025 Progress report<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 50%\">Examine at least two of the Group\u2019s activities per year from 2022 on, to be done by the end of 2025.<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 50%\">Two activities reviewed in 2025.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h4>Life Cycle Assessment in SBTN Step 1<\/h4>\n<p>Life Cycle Assessment is one of the methods proposed for the analysis of impacts and dependencies regarding biodiversity, in the Science-Based Target for Nature (SBTN) implementation guide.
