Has the undertaking disclosed whether all affected communities likely to be materially impacted by its operations, value chain, products, services, or business relationships are included in the scope of its disclosure under ESRS 2 SBM-3? Furthermore, in cases of material negative impacts, has the undertaking specified whether these impacts are widespread or systemic in the contexts where it operates or maintains business relationships, or if they are related to individual incidents within its own operations or specific business relationships? This should encompass impacts arising from the transition to greener and climate-neutral operations, including those associated with innovation, restructuring, mine closures, increased mineral mining for sustainable economy transitions, and solar panel production.

Question

Accepted Answer

In general, our material impacts are widespread and systemic, particularly in regions where we develop renewable energy projects, or where critical materials are sourced for the technologies we use. They arise as part of the transition to greener and renewable operations. This transition includes challenges associated with innovation and restructuring, such as the increased demand for minerals and metals that are essential for renewable technologies.
