OUR WORLD, CLIMATE CHANGE

KEY FIGURES AND 2022 TARGETS

In 2022, our Energy and Carbon KPI will be: a. 3% reduction in absolute CO 2 emissions across the Group b. 5% reduction in intensity CO 2 emissions across the DP World Ports & Terminals c. 2% increase in green electricity on 2021 results across the Group This builds on the progress we made in 2021 including: • Achieving 18% renewable electricity share at Group level, +5.6% in 2021 from 2020 • Achieving 13.3 emission intensity (kgCO 2 e/ ModTEU) from Ports & Terminals business, -9% in 2021 from 2020 These combined efforts demonstrate our continued focus on reducing both absolute emissions as well as carbon intensity, in line with the recommendations for climate change mitigation made by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

DP World continues to participate in the CDP (formerly the Carbon Disclosure Project) and achieved a leadership score of A- for our 2021 CDP climate change response. Our Green House Gas (GHG) emissions inventory is verified annually by a third party, in accordance with ISO 14064:2006. Our combined efforts are highlighted in the ESG Scorecard provided on page 36. For 2022, our targets include the development and roll-out of a water strategy including wastewater. Our waste KPI for 2022 is to show a 4% increase in reclaimed waste from the total generated waste in 2021 across the Group.

CASE STUDY: BOXBAY SYSTEM AT JEBEL ALI TERMINAL

This high bay storage system reduces, by nearly 70%, the land area needed to support terminal operations, and increase yearly yard throughput per hectare. With the use of this disruptive technology, the patented design and rack structure creates unique advantages with containers stored up to eleven stories high, delivering the capacity of a conventional terminal in a third of the surface area. It enables significant gains in handling speed, energy efficiency, safety and a major reduction in operating costs.

We always encourage our local teams to look for ways in which they can have maximum impact on the environment in the regions where they operate. This starts right at the heart of our historical home - our Jebel Ali Terminal. This is where we are piloting the Box Bay system, designed sustainably with a power supply source from solar panels.
