- Provide a detailed explanation of the processes utilized to identify and assess material climate-related impacts, risks, and opportunities. Specifically, describe how climate-related scenario analysis, incorporating a variety of climate scenarios, has been employed to inform the identification and assessment of physical risks and transition risks and opportunities over the short, medium, and long term, as required under ESRS 2 IRO-1, paragraphs 20 (b) and 20 (c).

Question Id: E1.IRO-1_08
The scenarios used are the International Energy Agency’s Net Zero Emissions by 2050, representing a climate scenario in line with limiting global warming to 1.5°C, and the Stated Policy Scenario, representing a more conservative benchmark for the future, not taking for granted that governments will reach all stated goals and energy-related objectives.
These scenarios are all relevant to Vestas as they cover both a very optimistic and a more realistic future scenario. Opposite to physical risks, transition risks and opportunities are more extreme in scenarios that assume successful mitigation of the worst effects of climate change, as drastic political and regulatory measures are necessary to change the current path. Therefore, these scenarios prepare companies well to adapt to changes in status quo.
