Following on from the annual reporting of our Scope 1 and 2 as well as selected Scope 3 emissions, we devised and rolled out the HOCHTIEF Sustainability Plan 2025 Group-wide in 2022. In this plan, alongside targets for all ESG dimensions, we notably formulated our climate targets and consolidated our Group-wide commitment to climate neutrality (net zero) by 2045. The reduction targets are science-based, align with the 1.5 degree target under the Paris Climate Agreement and the requirements of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), and have been formally adopted by the HOCHTIEF Executive Board.

- Provide a qualitative assessment of the potential locked-in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from your company's key assets and products. Explain whether and how these emissions could jeopardize the achievement of your GHG emission reduction targets and contribute to transition risk. Additionally, if applicable, describe your company's plans to manage its GHG-intensive and energy-intensive assets and products.

Question Id: E1-1_07
This analysis revealed no material locked-in greenhouse gas emissions from key HOCHTIEF assets and products that may jeopardize the attainment of our emission reduction targets or drive transition risks. We deliver projects to our clients largely in the capacity of managing contractor, meaning that we have neither major assets nor products with material locked-in emissions.
