Group activities through the lens of European taxonomy

FS Group reports the information required by the European taxonomy (EU Regulation 852/2020), which identifies certain conditions for an economic activity to be considered environmentally sustainable:

  • Contributing substantially to at least one of the six environmental objectives (climate change mitigation, climate change adaptation, transition to a circular economy model, sustainable water use, pollution prevention and control, biodiversity protection);
  • Not damaging any environmental objectives significantly (DNSH - Do No Significant Harm);
  • Respecting minimum safeguards (human rights, labour rights, etc.)

In 2024, around 61% of FS Group's Operating revenues, 41% of its operating costs and more than 88% of its capital expenditures were related to environmentally sustainable activities, in accordance with EU Regulation 852/2020.
