CLIMATE CHANGE AND AIR QUALITY

THIS IS HOW WE MANAGE IT

We develop projects with energy efficiency standards to promote low-carbon and climate-resilient infrastructure.

Low-carbon infrastructure: we develop projects with energy and process efficiency standards to prevent greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
We offset our emissions with projects that protect strategic ecosystems and increase territorial resilience to climate change.
We adapt to the effects of climate change by analyzing the vulnerability of our roads and airports with a risk management approach to ensure business continuity.
We promote communication and training initiatives for our employees and stakeholders, in order to increase awareness and collective action surrounding climate change management.
Our commitment to prevent, mitigate and adapt to climate change includes strict sustainability requirements for our operations that go beyond meeting legal standards.
We focus our management and commitments on respecting a range of human rights, including those related to life, water and sanitation, food, health, housing, self-determination, culture and development.

OUR PERFORMANCE

In 2022, we continued implementing the Climate Change strategy for Odinsa and Concessions approved by the Board of Directors, which includes mitigation, offsetting and adaptation actions.

We implemented mitigation actions in:

The concessions with the greatest reduction in scope 1 and 2 emissions compared to the previous year were:

OUR GOALS

Mitigation

BY 2025

100% our airports will be ACA certified.

BY 2030

we will reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 68% in a climate scenario of a 1.5ºC increase in global temperature, and Scope 3 emissions by 15% compared to 2018 (base year) in a climate scenario of 1.75°C.

BY 2030

we will increase energy consumption from renewable sources compared to 2018.

Offsetting

BY 2023

we will have a plan to achieve carbon neutrality through planting activities that contribute to the territory’s adaptation to climate change.

BY 2025

we will offset 100% of direct emissions from road and airport concessions (to be certified in 2026).

BY 2025

we will develop extended offsetting programs with our stakeholders.

Adaptation

BY 2025

we will have adaptation plans for the concessions and projects.

BY 2025

our organization will achieve carbon neutrality by developing the carbon sequestration project and forest planting for restoration or enrichment. It will have the capacity to offset emissions and contribute to increasing the resilience of ecosystems to climate change in the territories where our roads and airports operate.

ECOSYSTEMS WATER

We seek a responsible interaction with the different territories in which our projects operate. We identify strategic water ecosystems and the vulnerability of communities in terms of access and the quality of the resource. We promote a culture of water care, efficiency and optimization in our operations and with all stakeholders.

OUR MANAGEMENT
MAJOR INITIATIVES
OUR GOALS

Efficient use of the resource: We identify and evaluate strategies to optimize water consumption and use, define goals, quantify the savings they generate, and anticipate and analyze water footprint offsetting systems.
Risk management: we identify and assess water risks to establish management plans and protect the operation and ecosystems.

Access to water, sanitation and basin conservation: we develop planting initiatives, access and sanitation infrastructure, and environmental education. We do so in order to protect and conserve water ecosystems and contribute to improving hygiene and health conditions in the communities.
Environmental culture: We promote a culture of resource conservation with our stakeholders.
Rights to water and sanitation: our management promotes the conservation of water as a natural resource and as a fundamental human right, which strengthens and sustains healthy livelihoods in the territories, maintaining people’s dignity and eradicating poverty.

We undertake efficient and responsible management of the resource:

BY 2025

1) we will reduce the water footprint of Odinsa and our concessions compared to 2018.

2) we will increase our use and/or reuse of non-drinking water compared to 2018.

3) we will assess water risks and define response plans for 100% of our concessions.

4) We will implement water and/or sanitation access initiatives in communities in the area of influence of five of our concessions. By 2030, it will be in 100% of our concessions.

5) we will implement stakeholder awareness strategies to strengthen the protection of water resources in 100 % of our concessions.

6) As of 2022, 100% of the projects in the structuring phase promote the inclusion of efficient water resource management strategies that support efficient and quality consumption, the use of El Dorado as a benchmark non-drinking water and risk management.

BY 2025:

1) We will reduce the water footprint of

Odinsa and our concessions compared to 2018.

3) We will assess water risks and define response plans for 100% of our concessions.

5) We will implement stakeholder awareness strategies to strengthen the protection of water resources in 100 % of our concessions.

2) We will increase our use and/or reuse of

non-drinking water compared to 2018.

4) We will implement water and/or sanitation access initiatives in communities in the area of influence of five of our concessions. By 2030, it will be in 100% of our concessions.
