Veolia also plans to increase the efficiency gains offered by digital technology and artificial intelligence as part of its annual savings plan, to optimise its customers' water and energy consumption as well as waste sorting and recycling and strengthen predictive maintenance.

The acceleration of GreenUp will rely on the Group's core businesses, the soil on which these boosters can grow. They account for 70% of Veolia's activity today and will continue to fuel its growth, representing 30% by 2027 with €2 billion of investment as part of the plan.

These are the robust foundations of essential services to the territories or to industry, often comparable to infrastructures. For these activities, such as heating networks, municipal water and solid waste management, Veolia is working to maintain its operational excellence and pursue its innovation efforts.

³ The aim of introducing a scope 4 indicator is to measure and recognize the ecological transformation and, in particular, the decarbonization of industrial and economic activities. Scope 4 avoided emissions, which quantify the CO2 that would have been emitted into the atmosphere, corresponding to the positive impact of the decarbonization solutions implemented. Complementary to scopes 1, 2 and 3, scope 4 will enable us to steer economic, financial and regulatory decisions towards genuine global and collective decarbonization of the planet.
