We are aware that the transition to a climate-neutral economy could be slowed down by locked-in GHG emissions. Regarding Scope 1 and 2, certain processes cannot be converted to electricity yet. For Scope 3 downstream, the locked-in emissions depend on how the market will evolve in the coming years, in particular on the share of BEVs (Battery Electric Vehicle). However, it is important to point out that the higher the share of BEVs, the harder it is to reach the target set for Scope 3 upstream. We are developing plans to reduce emissions from downstream ICEs, and in particular, we are evaluating various technologies, including alternative fuels.

For the analysis of physical risks, we considered three different time horizons:

• short term – from 0 to 2 years
• medium term – from 2 to 5 years
• long term – from 5 to 8 years (the value eight is an indicative value, for specific risks that we already consider, the time horizon could be longer).

All of these risks have to be explored into our risk tables, strategic planning horizons and capital allocation plans.
