The 2020 materiality matrix is the result of what emerged through the involvement of external stakeholders, integrated with those findings collected within the company. The 12 identified material topics are all positioned in the highest relevance sector of the matrix.
Within the Roadmap 2025, our Group's strategic industrial plan, we wanted to make sustainability commitments that could be measured, verifying progress with as many Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).

We adopt a distinctive business model that combines economic sustainability with the generation of social and environmental value, and we are always on the lookout for innovation in our industry. The distributed added value measures the wealth shared with our main stakeholders: shareholders, employees, central and peripheral public administrations, financial institutions, and the local communities in which we operate. For this reason, for us it is a performance indicator to measure, every year, the transformation of the economic and productive capital.
Our commitments for 2021:
promote a distinctive sustainable business model, attracting ESG investors and capital
promote regulatory proposals on sustainable energy through a dialogue with Authorities and Institutions
ensure full consistency between RAF and SUF, update and monitor the list of sustainability key risk indicators (KRI)
pursue innovative and sustainable customer-focused solutions and continue to invest in digitalization
Local communities and on-the-ground partners are a key aspect of our business model. We share the value we generate with them, including through the many ESG initiatives we support in the contexts in which we operate. We encourage the participation of local communities in our business through engagement models and initiatives aimed at enabling the sustainable development of the territories that host us. We promote the use of the local labor force and a short supply chain. We support the creation of skills, competence and knowledge-sharing in relation to energy sustainability, including through training projects. We minimize the impact on the environment of our activities, in order to protect the ecosystem value of the territories that host us, as well as enhance their customs and traditions. The rate share of plants with a significative community engagement program of local communities in our business is the way in which we measure our capability toof grow together with the communities that host us.
Our commitments for 2021:
refine a responsible sourcing process that encourages a sustainable approach, short supply chain, and use of local labor
consolidate the activities promoted by the Sustainability Charter and extend them to new countries of presence
involve our clients/offtakers in community engagement programs
promote a pilot experience of lending crowdfunding in Italy

Fighting climate change and safeguarding the environments that host our operations are our main challenges. We want to be leaders in energy transition and sustainability. We want to produce sustainable energy, in a sustainable way, in sustainable territories. The GHG emissions avoided thanks to wind and solar energy are for us the monitoring parameter of our commitment to the environment.
Our commitments for 2021:
make progress towards the net-zero emission target by 2025
ensure total compatibility between activities and the environment
protect ecosystems and enhance traditional uses in the territories in which we operate
We believe in people and their potential, in their desire to improve themselves and to generate value for our Group and for the society in which we live. This is why we are committed to promoting continuous professional growth, while guaranteeing a stimulating and safe working environment, that enhances everyone’s diversity and allows them to achieve a fair balance between work and private life.

expand internal training offerings and develop an employer branding plan
consolidate health & safety protocols and tools, develop a seminar program on health, safety and wellbeing
balance gender ratio in recruitments
consolidate a governance model that combines sustainability, risk and integrity
