DEME accounts for scope 1 and scope 2 emissions in its carbon footprint. Greenhouse Gasses Greenhouse gasses are the fundamental cause of climate change. Limiting their effect directly improves our environment. For shipping the most important greenhouse gas is CO2; directly related to fuel consumption. DEME reports its greenhouse gas emissions on a corporate level through the methodology described in the ISO standard. ISO ISO is an international standard, supplying the basis for specific climate change programmes. DEME received a positive Verification Assurance Statement for its carbon footprint conformity to ISO14064 for its base year ISO defines 3 scopes of emissions reporting. Scope 1 emissions Scope 1 contains all direct GHG emissions. Direct GHG emissions occur from sources that are owned or controlled by DEME such as the consumption of fuel and natural gas. Scope 2 emissions Scope 2 accounts for GHG emissions from the generation of electricity purchased by DEME. The CO2 Performance ladder includes, in addition to purchased electricity, business air travel and the use of private cars for business purposes in scope 2. Scope 3 emissions Scope 3 is a reporting category that allows for the inventory of all other indirect emissions. Scope 3 emissions are a consequence of the activities of the company, but occur from sources not controlled by the company. Rev Uncontrolled if printed.

4 1 INTRODUCTION This document describes DEME s Energy Management Action plan for the period and is annually reviewed. 1.1 DEME s reduction objective DEME s energy reduction objective is stipulated in the DEME Energy Charter [DEME-MGT-CHT-007]. This charter stipulates an increase in energy efficiency in terms of a 7 % efficiency increase by 2022 as compared to This corresponds to an annual increase of 0,7% by every business unit within DEME. 2 ISO The DEME Energy Management Action plan has at its foundation the DEME Energy Charter [DEME- MGT-CHT-007] and utilises elements of ISO ISO is based on the common elements of ISO management systems (Plan Do Check Act approach), ensuring compatibility with ISO 9001 and ISO Figure 1 illustrates the model of the ISO Energy Management System. Figure 1: Energy Management System model for ISO Within DEME, the ISO standard for energy management is aligned with, and incorporated in, DEME s existing group wide programme for continuous improvement ie. DRIVE. DRIVE is an acronym for DEME s Resolve on Innovation and Value Engineering. DRIVE envisions three parts; DRIVE Cost, DRIVE Transactional and DRIVE Operational. DRIVE Cost entails purchasing/sourcing improvements, DRIVE Transactional directs its attention towards administrative efficiency whereas DRIVE Operational focusses on site efficiency, productivity, innovation and sustainability. Giving its common areas of interest and similarities in approach, the DEME energy objective and related actions for operations on Belgian and on Dutch territory, informed by ISO aspects, are taken up within the existing DRIVE operational programme for continuous improvement as described in section 3: DEME s approach.

5 3 DEME S APPROACH The section describes common grounds of ISO and DRIVE, as illustrated in figure Identification Figure 2: DRIVE Exercise model The DEME group wide Greenhouse Gas Management system, conform ISO 14064, provides the means to identify significant energy sources, energy reduction potential, and evaluate past and present energy use that leads the way to improvements in energy performance. The project selection process within DRIVE ensures that the right projects are considered for execution upon Management approval. 3.2 Preparation The methodology for selecting Key Performance Indicators within DRIVE is directed towards stimulating the identification of improvement opportunities and proving its results. Ownership is placed with the persons responsible for the resources. Before the start of each improvement exercise, the baseline of the Key Performance Indicator is set according to the DRIVE vision and approach. 3.3 Launch Given the diversity of DEME s activities, targets are set on a case-specific basis. All improvements actions and best practices are added to the relevant detailed action plan. For each improvement exercise an improvement responsible is assigned. Verification of the results is ensured by involvement of the process owner or business unit responsible in the evaluation process. 3.4 Progress & close Monitoring and evaluation of the improvement exercises is ensured through the incorporation in the DRIVE periodic management review. Corrective actions are taken within DRIVE to ensure the overall effectiveness of the DRIVE programme by Management review of the objectives set forth. Rev Uncontrolled if printed.

6 4 DEME S ACTION PLAN 4.1 OBJECTIVES DEME identifies its significant energy sources, energy reduction potential, and evaluates past and present energy use that leads the way to improvements in energy performance. DEME has therefore established reduction objectives for its own organisation (scope 1 & 2) and its most GHG generating chain activities (scope 3). Scope 1 & 2 DEME quantifies its energy objectives in terms of a 7 % efficiency increase by 2022 as compared to The overall DEME reduction target of 7% is further subdivided into different objectives for scope 1 and scope 2 emissions. For its scope 1 emissions DEME is pursuing a challenging goal to improve its fuel efficiency resulting in less fuel use and CO2 emissions. In order to reduce its fuel use DEME has set following reduction objectives: Lease cars: 25% ( ) Drive projects: 6 % ( ) DEME is also working to reduce its scope 2 CO 2 emissions from its facilities by using energy more efficiently, and switching to alternate forms of energy that result in lower emissions. The overall ambition that was set, envisions a reduction of 35% by 2022 as compared to Scope 3 DEME involves its suppliers in the process of creating insight into the chain. DEME has therefore analysed its most material scope 3 emissions of its GHG-generating activities. Based on these results DEME has established a general reduction objective of 6% over 10 years ( ). The reduction measures are focused on 2 main activities: Construction of windfarms (chain activity of GeoSea) Fluvial and maritime transport (chain activity of DBM) Construction of windfarms GeoSea is a specialized DEME company focusing on installations for the construction of offshore wind farms. To gain perspective on the impact of GeoSea as contractor in an entire windfarm project, GeoSea decided to complete the value chain carbon footprint of the Thornton offshore wind farm project. This value chain carbon footprint offers a cradle-to-cradle view of the Thornton project from GeoSea s contractors perspective. This study was also a starting point for GeoSea to adapt its business and put targets on the value chain emissions of a wind farm project. Deme and GeoSea decided to set a reduction objective for its offshore wind farm projects for the next 10 years ( ). This reduction objective aims a 10% decrease in CO 2 emissions per installed wind capacity. Rev Uncontrolled if printed. Most recent version is available on the DEME website. page 6 of 13

7 Fluvial and maritime transport DEME Building Materials is a DEME company that is specialized in dredging, transportation, processing and grading of sand and gravel for supply delivery to the construction industry. To get more insight in its chain of activities, DBM launched a LCA study in By this study it is revealed that 11% of the total CO 2 emissions of this chain are obtained from transport activities to the client. This is also the reason why DBM wants to implement a reduction policy. This policy implies a reduction in CO2 emissions per ton km of 6%. Rev Uncontrolled if printed.
