2022 Employee profit-sharing agreement

The 2022 profit-sharing agreement signed by EDF’s management and its social partners includes, in addition to business, health & safety and gender diversity criteria, one climate-based criterion relating to electrifying the EDF’s vehicle fleet in accordance with the EV 100 commitment. See section 3.3.3.7 “Remuneration”

3.1.3.5.2 Innovation and collective intelligence focused on climate action

EDF is implementing initiatives directly focused on combating global warming. At the start of October 2022, an “energy sobriety” plan was implemented to increase the Group’s engagement with these issues entailed by the crisis. The plan is directed at employees and seeks to help them reduce their own electricity use in order to set an example.

Via VEOL, the EDF group intranet community, employees have been invited to “Fight CO₂ ”; “carbon neutrality passports” and “energy sobriety challenges” and have also been provided with information about energy-saving tips and actions. This involves quizzes focusing on 15 energy-saving tips referred to as écogestes. A best practice challenge, taken up individually or in teams, was also launched in November 2022 to garner new ideas.

3.1.3.5.2.1 The “Carbon neutrality passport”

Launched at the end of 2020 as part of the “Combatting CO₂, it starts with us” programme, the “carbon neutrality passport” was intended to test knowledge on climate change, assess the carbon footprint, and take action based on challenges in the fields of energy use, housing, power supply, transport, responsible digital development, or energy savings.

3.1.3.5.2.2 The “Climate Fresk”

The EDF group committed to raise awareness among as many of its employees as possible on climate issues through the “Climate Fresk”, a collective intelligence- based tool that makes it easy to understand the key conclusions of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report ⁽¹⁾. Due to the health

crisis, most of the initial deployment took place digitally, following which face-to- face sessions gradually resumed as the various waves of the crisis allowed. Feedback indicates that participants were very much in favour of the latter format. Seeking to be attentive to its employees, the Group has therefore decided to focus on face-to-face sessions and adjust the pace of the roll-out accordingly.

2022 highlights

24-hour Fresk, 2022 edition

One thousand people in the EDF group took part in a Climate Fresk event running from 8am on 9 June to 8am on 10 June. Workshops were organised in several Group entities worldwide (Belgium, Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, France (Metropolitan France and Overseas French Départements and Regions), Italy, New Caledonia, UK) in such a way that the Fresk ran continuously, either virtually or in- person, in French, English, Spanish, and Portuguese. A new development in 2022 was that the project was organised jointly with other companies using the Fresk: ABB, Société Générale, Groupe Bouygues, La Poste, Groupe Atlantis, Aperam and BNP Paribas. In all, some 2,000 people took part in the event.

Structuring the Company network

For 2 years, EDF has provided feedback for companies planning their own rollouts through a discussion network coordinated by the Climate Fresk NGO. In 2022, major rollouts were launched in several of these companies with the help of feedback from EDF.

Fresk platform

EDF has co-developed a coordination platform for rolling out the Climate Fresk together with the Climate Fresk NGO for their mutual benefit. The platform has been designed to be usable in other organisations and has already been offered to other companies in the network.

3.1.3.5.2.3 “Eco2” conferences

In 2021, the Group launched its “Eco2 conferences”. This series of scientific talks focuses on the issues surrounding a carbon-neutral economy. These online talks have been followed by several thousand people. Based on collective intelligence, the initiative has brought together a collective of 65 people, half of them from EDF and half from elsewhere (including members of the Alumni for the Planet network) ⁽²⁾, who attended all of the talks with the aim of identifying lessons that could be shared. In 2022, this work gave rise to the publication of a white paper providing practical details of the multi-stakeholder economic system devoted to the climate, wellbeing, and development ⁽³⁾.

3.1.3.5.2.4 “Employer sustainable mobility plans” developed by employees

Sites concerned

Through the France-wide EDF group agreement on sustainable mobility unanimously signed in November 2019, a commitment was made to develop an “Employer sustainable mobility plan” for sites with more than 100 employees. As of the end of 2022, 113 employer mobility plans had been finalised across the EDF group in France.

Involvement of employees

Employees are involved in producing and implementing these employer mobility plans.

Schemes to develop sustainable employee mobility

• Encouraging the use of low-carbon transportation: trialling electric bikes and cars, a “sustainable mobility allowance” for ride-sharers, negotiated discounts for the purchase of electric vehicles.
• Adapting infrastructures to new travel modes: installation of charging stations, creation or extension of bike parks, reserved parking places for ride-sharing.
