Enhance circularity and protect biodiversity
For Technip Energies, tackling climate change and protecting the environment goes beyond the scope of our own operations. It forms an integral part of the products, services, and solutions that we offer our clients. In line with our ambition to be a global leader of the energy transition, it is our responsibility to offer environmental solutions which enhance circularity and protect biodiversity.

GOVERNANCE
The Company is committed to operating in compliance with all applicable environmental regulations, laws, and international codes and standards, wherever we operate. As outlined in our Global HSE and Security Policy, environmental management is everyone’s responsibility at Technip Energies. The ESG Committee advises and recommends to the Board appropriate environmental practices, initiatives and programs and oversees the Company’s progress in implementing these. The effective implementation of environmental policy depends on management’s commitment, the accountability of every entity, an ongoing dialog with key stakeholders and a chain of responsibility that extends across the Company workforce. Our environmental management system and standards are the responsibility of our Chief Operation Officer (“COO”), supported by our Vice-President of Quality, Health, Safety, Environment and Security (“QHSES”). All entities and projects within the Company are managed by dedicated QHSES managers and directors, with a team of QHSES engineers and supervisors responsible for the application of environmental rules and standards in their respective areas to ensure that our environmental requirements are implemented correctly. All employees receive environmental training in accordance with our Code of Business Conduct. A Global Environmental Manager is tasked with monitoring the performance and coordinating a network of environmental specialists from all main operating centers. The environment network designs environmental programs, supports the

A SOLID ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IN PLACE
A dedicated environmental team Environment specialists from all regions and business lines assess the environmental risks and opportunities of our projects and assets, harmonize and coordinate environmental practices across our work processes and report quantitative and qualitative data from our operations. The environmental team, comprising about 130 specialists worldwide, is directly involved on projects. They notably conduct technical studies, including environmental aspects identification (“ENVID”), which is a multi- disciplinary analysis of project impacts, carried out at the design and execution stage.
Extending ISO 14001 certification across our operating centers The ISO 14001 standard sets out the requirements for an Environmental Management System to provide global consistency in the face of increasingly complex environmental risk. At December 31, 2022, 25 (or 81%) of our main operating centers were ISO 14001 certified, including main offices, managed projects and industrial sites with more than 50 employees. We are on track to achieve ISO 14001 certification of all our main entities by 2025.
Measuring environmental performance The scope of environmental reporting for Technip Energies includes 75 sites in 2022, of which half are temporary project sites (construction and yards) and the rest are permanent offices and industrial assets. For all of them, the following environmental data are reported on a monthly basis: Energy, water and material consumption (by substance and source type);
Air, effluent and waste emissions (by substance and management type);
Biodiversity impacts.
Detailed indicators are given in the Impact Book.
RESPONSIBLE ENERGY, WATER AND WASTE MANAGEMENT ON PROJECTS
Technip Energies is actively seeking to optimize the resources in use in all the sites that we manage and in the project designs that we offer to clients.
Energy management Our Global HSE and Security policy includes a clear commitment to continuously improve our energy and resource efficiency whether in the designs we provide or in the way we execute projects. The annual energy consumption of our offices, industrial sites and projects we execute for our clients (construction sites and yards) is presented in the Impact Book. The energy consumption of our projects increased in absolute value in 2022 compared to 2021. This is mostly due to few mega projects, located in remote areas, which depend on diesel generators for their energy supply, notably at decisive stage such as commissioning. In 2022, the share of clean electricity in our energy consumption continued to increase significantly due to electricity from renewables being available from the grid, or from internal production (solar or energy recovery from compressors notably).
Water management As per our ESG Scorecard, we target 50% of water consumed by our sites to come from reuse sources (rainwater, internally treated
wastewater and treated wastewater coming from another organization) by 2025. In 2022, we reached 19% compared to 21% in 2021. It should be noted that for projects, the water management opportunities depend on the construction and commissioning phases. Guidelines have been developed to improve water management and reuse all waters, wherever possible, whatever the project phase. In addition, we are developing awareness initiatives to enhance the site practices regarding water management.
Hydrotesting and system cleaning During the construction and commissioning phases of a project, hydrotesting and system cleaning represents the largest volume of water consumption. Hydrotesting involves testing the critical components of a plant such as the piping systems, gas cylinders, boilers, and pressure vessels. It is done by completely filling the components with a liquid, usually water and pressurizing the system to test for leaks. During commissioning activities, water is used to clean the systems (pipes mainly), with or without inhibitors, such as flushing, hydro- jetting, chemical cleaning, steam blowing. In Singapore, the NESTE project team took advantage of a government program to supply “certified reused water” to industries. In 2022, 80% of the water consumed by this site came from this source (note: this is defined in our reporting as wastewater coming from another organization).
In addition, the project team introduced innovative measures to collect and filter stormwater for reuse.
Waste management As per our ESG Scorecard, we target 85% of waste to be recovered by 2025. In 2022, we reached 87% thanks to the reuse of soil, rocks and dredging materials generated by various projects during site preparation and excavation phases. These materials are fully reused directly within the construction sites, mostly for backfilling. The volume of waste to be managed varies a lot along the different phases of project development. The early phases of site preparation involve managing huge quantities of soil and rocks which are generally easy to recycle or reuse. During the commissioning phases, there is less solid waste and more wastewater, which requires alternative recycling processes. The availability of local facilities to treat and recycle waste has also a great impact on the project ability to improve the performance of sites in terms of waste recovery. In Mexico, the ECA project site achieved
a performance of 98% waste soil and rocks valorized. Crushed rocks and soil have been reused locally.
In Egypt, the MIDOR project has seen its waste recovery performance improved from 68% in 2021 to 77% in 2022, mostly due to a systematic recycling of wood and scrap metal.
