Claudia IVAN Energy Manager Together with our ISO 50001 certified Energy Management System, we have adopted the REWE Group Energy Policy, which allows us to continuously develop our energy performance and achieve our strategic goals in terms of climate protection concerns. Through our Energy Policy, we are committed to the following principles: z full legal compliance on energy consumption and energy efficiency z proper data management and continuous improvement of energy performance and our energy management system z raising awareness on energy efficiency and climate protection among our employees and customers z increasing energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy By adhering to these principles, we support REWE Group's climate protection objective through our energy management. We will continue to promote the expansion of renewable energy sources, make steps towards climate neutrality by 2040 and continue to use energy-efficient technologies. We are committed to providing all the information and resources needed to achieve our energy and climate goals. In order to formulate energy efficiency measures, the first step is to monitor consumption and correlate this data with operational activities, locations and other parameters that might provide details of consumption patterns. Thus, we have a number of consumption categories that we monitor each year. Electricity intensity (kWh/m2) Evolution of electricity consumption of PENNY stores compared to the assumed targets (kWh/m2) 2012 2017 2021 2022 PROGRESS 2022 vs. 2021 Total (including tenants) 571* 492 458 434 - 5,24% PENNY stores only 571 475 431 406 - 5,80% As part of the strategic framework for ensuring energy efficiency, we have set annual targets (with the base year 2012) for specific energy consumption per m2 of sales area at both group and country level: z REWE Group target for specific energy consumption: 518 kWh/m2 z PENNY Romania target for specific energy consumption: 502 kWh/m2 * In 2012 there were no tenants, the total consumption resulting exclusively from the activity of PENNY stores.
