We believe that the work carried out, based on our professional judgement, is sufficient to provide a basis for our limited assurance conclusion; a higher level of assurance would have required us to carry out more extensive procedures.

Means and resources

Our work was carried out by a team of eleven people between December 2019 and February 2020 and took a total of forty weeks.

We were assisted in our work by our specialists in sustainable development and corporate social responsibility. We conducted around forty interviews with the people responsible for preparing the Statement.

Conclusion

Based on the procedures performed, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the non-financial statement is not presented in accordance with the applicable regulatory requirements and that the Information, taken as a whole, is not presented fairly in accordance with the Guidelines, in all material respects.

Reasonable assurance report on a selection of non-financial information

Nature and scope of our work

With regard to the information selected by the entity presented in Appendix 1 and identified with the symbol √ in chapter 3, we conducted the same procedures as those described in the paragraph “Nature and scope of our work” (for the most important non-financial information). However, these procedures were more in-depth, particularly regarding the number of tests.

Consequently, the selected sample represents 50% of Workforce as of 31/12/2019 and breakdown by age and gender and 68% of EDF group direct greenhouse gas emissions (scope 1) (MtCO₂ eq).

We believe that these procedures enable us to express reasonable assurance regarding the information selected by the entity and identified with the symbol √.

Conclusion

In our opinion, the information selected by the entity and identified with the symbol √ in chapter 3 has been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the Guidelines.
