CLIMATE STRATEGY FOR 2008-2022

METRICS OBJECTIF DATE/PÉRIMÈTREDEADLINEPERFORMANCE AS OF YEAR-END 2020
CARBON FOOTPRINT OVER THE ENTIRE LIFECYCLE

CARBON FOOTPRINT OVER THE ENTIRE LIFECYCLE

 

Measures the Group’s greenhouse gas emissions. Calculated on the basis of the number of vehicles sold and the Scopes 1, 2 and 3 emissions categories defined by the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (for the complete list, see URD 2020 Appendix 2.6.1.1).

 

CARBON FOOTPRINT OVER THE ENTIRE LIFECYCLE

OBJECTIF DATE/PÉRIMÈTRE

Reduce by 25% on average in 2022 compared to 2010 (validated in 2017, scope including Renault, Dacia, Alpine and RSM sales)

TANK-TO-WHEEL EMISSIONS

(GHG PROTOCOL SCOPE 3 DOWNSTREAM)

 

Measures average CO2 emissions of new vehicles sold by Renault Group per km. Scopes covered are passenger car sales in Europe and worldwide and all vehicle sales worldwide based on certification data (converted to the WLTP standard).

(For more details, see URD 2020, page 168.)

Continuous

(1) The consolidated environmental reporting scope covers all manufacturing sites, together with the main Renault Group logistics, tertiary and engineering sites, excluding the RRG Commercial Network, which comes under a special reporting system.
(2) Average gross emissions (not adjusted for the effects of geographical and model mix) in kg CO2e/km per vehicle produced linked to upstream transportation (parts for the Group’s manufacturing sites) and downstream transportation (transportation of new vehicles), excluding AVTOVAZ.

AVTOVAZ is currently being integrated into the environmental reporting scope. Scope 1 and 2 emissions for its sites are published in the Universal registration document (URD) 2020, page 242.
