SAINT-GOBAIN SIGNS A MAJOR RENEWABLE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY AGREEMENT IN INDIA

Saint-Gobain has signed a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) in India with Vibrant Energy - a portfolio company of Macquarie Asset Management's Green Investment Group (MAM-GIG) - to provide wind-solar electricity to 6 local Saint-Gobain sites.

The 20-year PPA will begin delivery in 2024 and bring the renewable electricity share in India to 65% in 2025.

Under the agreement, Vibrant Energy will provide Saint-Gobain with 189 GWh of renewable electricity (solar and wind) per year, thus reducing Saint-Gobain's CO(2) emissions in India by around 120,000 tons per year. Through wide-ranging initiatives such as the replacement of fossil fuels with biomass, waste heat recovery and reuse, and circularity actions, Saint-Gobain is well on its way to achieving 100% renewable electricity in India by 2030.

This agreement, in addition to those previously signed by the Group in North America , Spain and Poland , is part of the Group's overall trajectory to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.
