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

The affected communities in scope of this disclosure are limited to (i) communities living or working around the wind farms which are impacted directly or indirectly through our construction and development operations and (ii) communities of indigenous peoples. These impacts affect communities near our wind power project development and construction activities and are all systemic in nature due to our business model.
