Energy-efficient buildings 

Energy efficiency also concerns our real estate assets. We are improving the design and technical management of our commercial buildings in terms of heating, air conditioning and lighting. We are committed, for example, to progressively equipping our buildings with heat pumps, to replace oil- and gas-fired boilers. We are also developing hybrid working methods for our employees, which will help reduce the energy consumption of our premises. As a result, by 2023, energy consumption and CO₂ emissions for our buildings were 17% and 18%¹ lower.
