WE RAISE OUR PARTNERS’ AWARENESS OF TOGETHER FOR A MORE SUSTAINABLE ECO-SUSTAINABILITY ENVIRONMENT

We ask our suppliers to share our approach sharing principles and commitments on Respect for the environment, for local territories the Ministry’s technical experts. to sustainability in order to achieve one of environmental protection, with the common and for the people with whom we share areas As part of our Research and Innovation our most important corporate objectives: goal of achieving a sustainable supply chain and activities are essential elements in order projects, we have launched several having a responsible and sustainable supply while minimizing environmental impact. For to ensure the continuity and growth of our initiatives within the framework of European chain. this reason we have adopted the Suppliers’ Group over time and to the benefit of future collaborations to study strategies to reduce Code of Ethics that includes among its generations. the environmental impact of our products, We want to represent a model of excellence pillars the protection of and respect for Therefore, we are directly involved in the in particular, with reference to the initiatives also in terms of environmental protection the environment. Suppliers are asked development of international regulations and underway to contribute to the SDG 14 and this is why we have a binding to share the principles contained in the we conduct our business in close collaboration objective - life below water, studies are being environmental policy for all our employees document with their employees, subsidiaries, with the flag agency, classification societies, carried out to reduce underwater noise caused and for all external companies operating in collaborators and subcontractors, with a the sector’s industrial associations, shipping by our products, even though there are no our production sites.

An agreement was signed between Environmental Management System at our Fincantieri, Eni, Cassa Depositi e Prestiti, and sites and obtaining ISO 14001 certification For more information on the supply chain, please refer to the Terna with the aim of developing energy chapter “For a sustainable supply chain”. for most of them. We expect all our suppliers systems with reduced environmental impact. PLAN to align themselves with this approach, OBJECTIVE Experimentation of a system that uses wave COMPLETED motion to produce electricity is part of this IN 2019 approach.

We also believe in the value of transparency in reporting and we are guiding change in this Research plays a particularly important role in direction. As proof of this, in 2016 we joined the fight against climate change. Therefore, the the CDP Climate Change Programme, a Sustainability Plan includes a specific objective prestigious British organization whose goal is that provides for the activation of partnerships to improve the management of environmental with universities/research institutes in risks by leveraging information transparency. order to develop new solutions for energy The programme asks the world’s largest efficiency or reduction of greenhouse gas companies from all sectors to participate emissions. In particular, a project was launched in an annual survey of their approach to in 2019 to study proposals for regulations managing their environmental risks and of the allowing the use of fuel cells on board ships, results they achieved. The extensive database with particular focus on passenger ships. resulting from this survey is made available to Fincantieri also presented a project proposal stakeholders. called GreenCruise to the Italian Ministry for In 2019, the Fincantieri Group obtained the Economic Development to study and develop B rating, on a scale ranging from the minimum prototypes of power generation solutions D to the maximum A, which testifies to the using alternative fuels (e.g. LNG and fuel cells). effectiveness of the actions it has taken in the This second project is awaiting evaluation by fight against climate change.
