1. Reducing the Ardo carbon footprint
One way we strive to minimise our environmental impact, is by reducing our carbon footprint. Our specific target is to achieve a 40% reduction
in carbon emissions (T CO2eq / T prod) in our own operations by 2030. To realise this goal, we have committed to a series of energy efficiency
measures based on three key principles: reduce, reuse and regenerate. We believe that implementing various actions and programmes across
our operations will enable us to accomplish even more ambitious sustainability goals, aligned with our SBTi1 commitment.
As a general approach to improve our energy efficiency, we start by
These energy efficiency measures have clearly borne fruit as we have already reduced our

which is partly the result of lower production due to climate change impacts.
