DRIVING SUSTAINABILITY Siemens is committed to acting in the best interest of future generations - with respect to the economy, the environment, and society. Before the announcement of the global climate agreement in Paris in 2015, Siemens announced a bold objective: to cut its greenhouse gas emissions in half by 2020 and to become carbon neutral by 2030. To achieve this decarbonization, Siemens is focusing on four different areas. First, its Energy Efficiency Program (EEP) is verifiably reducing energy consumption at the company's own buildings and manufacturing facilities. Second, increased use of distributed energy systems (DES) is optimizing energy costs at the company's locations and production plants. Third, Siemens is systematically employing low emission vehicles and e-mobility concepts in its worldwide vehicle fleet. Fourth, the company is moving toward a clean energy mix by increasingly acquiring its electricity from sources that emit little or no CQ such as wind power and hydroelectric power. Over the next three years, Siemens plans to invest more than $110 milion to improve energy efficiency at offices and factories, and will require Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Updated as of 4/27/2017 17cv1906 Sierra Club v. EPA ED_001523_00003161 -00013 SIEMENS certification for all of the company's new buildings. Siemens has already made significant advances in reducing its carbon footprint. The company has cut its CO2 emissions from 2.2 million tons in fiscal 2014 to 1.7 million tons in fiscal 2016. Siemens is also installing distributed and renewable-energy systems at a number of its facilities. As a model, the company will look to its rail manufacturing plant in Sacramento, Calif., where about 80 percent of total electricity is generated using solar energy. Siemens expects these investments to pay for themselves in just five years and generate $20 million in annual savings thereafter - demonstrating that cutting your carbon footprint is good business as well as good corporate citizenship. Siemens' carbon neutral announcement is an extension of the company's long-standing commitment to applying the principles of sustainability across its value chain - designing sustainable products and solutions for industrial, commercial, municipal and institutional customers. Siemens' portfolio includes fuel efficient gas turbines, high-speed electric locomotives, digital grids, wind turbines, optimized drive technologies for manufacturers, resource-saving building automation, and energy efficient health care equipment. With these and other technologies, in the last fiscal year Siemens' environmental portfolio enabled its customers and partners throughout the world to reduce their carbon dioxide emissions by 487 million tons - about ten times the annual amount of carbon produced in New York City. In January 2017, Siemens was named the most sustainable company in the world by Corporate Knights. Sustainability guides Siemens' over-arching commitment to thinking and acting in the interest of future generations - balancing people, planet and profit.
