REDUCING THE ENVIRONMENTAL FOOTPRINT OF OUR PORTFOLIO & OUR TENANTS
Climate change may lead to warmer summers on the European continent, which may require adjustments to buildings to keep indoor temperatures comfortable for building occupants. This is particularly crucial in elderly care, as this vulnerable group of people is sensitive to high temperatures. This rise in temperatures may lead to a complete rethinking of the way buildings are designed, with more attention paid to active and passive cooling of buildings. Moreover, climate change may lead to sea level rise and extreme weather events that could damage buildings, such as the 2021 floods that affected some of the Group's properties in Germany.
Aedifica has developed a building assessment framework (see page 7) that includes a sustainability pillar. As part of this pillar, we have conducted a climate change risk assessment in 2023 to better understand the physical and transition risks to our portfolio.
The first iteration of the climate change risk assessment was conducted with the help and expertise of an external partner, paving the way for further development in-house in the future. The methodology is aligned with the TCFD (Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures) and based on principles similar to disaster risk models, drawing on climate and socio-economic modelling data from a variety of sources. This comprehensive climate and socio-economic data covers physical risks such as extreme temperature, drought, wildfires, (pluvial/fluvial) floods, water stress and cyclones, in addition to transition risks. Although the assessment did not consider asset-level risk mitigation strategies, it did explore opportunities related to energy efficiency, material use, resilience, innovation and new markets.
Next steps include targeted actions toward assets with significant risks identified, recognising that some physical risks require government intervention, while others can be addressed by operators or owners. A review of existing and recommended mitigation measures is planned, in response to identified risks such as fluvial flooding and extreme temperatures. This commitment to proactive risk management underlines our dedication to dealing with climate challenges in a dynamic and evolving landscape.
Aedifica commits to achieving net zero emissions for its entire portfolio by 2050 to meet the objectives of the Paris Agreement and thus contribute to addressing the climate crisis. Reducing the impact of global warming will largely depend on further eliminating greenhouse gas emissions as a result of energy consumption.
The scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) of our business activities are very limited. Aedifica is not directly involved in the operations of its care homes (generating scope 3 downstream emissions). As the operators are responsible for the daily management and maintenance of the buildings (including the technical equipment) and the way they purchase electricity, the Group only has a limited impact on the direct environmental performance of its buildings. However, as a leading healthcare real estate investor, Aedifica takes responsibility and actively cooperates with its operators on how to develop, maintain and operate our assets in an efficient, safe and sustainable manner.
Net zero greenhouse gas emissions do not only refer to direct emissions (scope 1), but also to indirect emissions (scopes 2 and 3). Aedifica's greatest challenge will be to reduce scope 3 downstream GHG emissions (mainly energy consumed by operators and residents) which are more difficult to control.
As this requires a comprehensive approach and thorough cooperation with our operators, we have developed a net zero GHG pathway.
In 2023, the emissions associated with our own organisation contributed to only approx. 1% to our carbon footprint. The remaining 99% is attributable to our value chain (downstream emissions).

1% Organisation: 452 tCO2 e 99% Portfolio (86% coverage) 31% Electricity: 14,974 tCO2 e 8% District heating: 3,663 tCO2 e 60% Fuels: 28,631 tCO2 e
Minimising the impact of climate change on our portfolio
Net zero GHG pathway Building assessment framework
The share of green electricity within our portfolio's total electricity consumption increased from 14% in 2022 to 21% in 2023, owing to the on-site production of renewable energy as well as the purchase of green energy by our operators. This is the result of Aedifica's investments in making its portfolio more sustainable and raising awareness among its tenants. In Western Europe, 2023 was a slightly warmer year than 2022, resulting in lower energy demand for building heating. In Northern Europe, however, 2023 was significantly colder than 2022, resulting in higher energy demand for building heating. The greenhouse gas intensity – the amount of greenhouse gases emitted per square meter – of Aedifica's portfolio in 2023 was 26 kgCO2 /m2 , down 4% from 2022. Our ongoing efforts to understand the energy and GHG intensity of our portfolio are reflected in consistent high data coverage. We closely monitor 86% of the buildings' carbon emissions, resulting in robust reported KPIs. We will continuously work on expanding data coverage and quality in the coming years. Aedifica uses the Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard guidelines to quantify and report on its greenhouse gas emissions.

Net zero GHG pathway
Building assessment framework
In order to achieve climate neutrality, Aedifica is implementing a net zero greenhouse gas pathway addressing every aspect of our business activities. Each of these activities contributes to our goal of reaching net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. This will be a challenging journey in which collaboration and knowledge sharing within the industry is essential. Aedifica is committed to accompanying its stakeholders on this journey. As a property owner, Aedifica's main objective over the next decade is to reduce the net energy
An excessive use of renewable energy sources can potentially slow down the process of decarbonisation and thus focusing on the net energy demand is the first objective, moreover, efficiency measures result in cost savings to tenants by lowering energy bills. Purchasing green energy to meet the remaining net energy demand will have an additional positive impact on decarbonisation.
The science-based Carbon Risk Real Estate Monitor (CRREM) serves as a tool and benchmark in the annual evaluation of building performance and as a guide for portfolio development in the various countries where Aedifica operates. CRREM collaborates with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to provide fully aligned 1.5°C decarbonisation pathways for the real estate sector. Our cooperation with CRREM underscores our commitment to sustainability and responsible portfolio development.
An interim target was set for 2030 to reduce the nEUI for the entire Aedifica portfolio to an average of 130 kWh/m², while targets were also set for the Executive Committee and country managers. The targets and measurements were made in accordance with CRREM definitions.

• Updating green travel policies
PATHWAY TO NET ZERO GHG EMISSIONS IN THE EUROPEAN HEALTHCARE SECTOR 1
The net energy use intensity (nEUI) decreased by 5% from 167 kWh/m² in 2022 to 158 kWh/m² in 2023, weighted on the Gross Internal Area (GIA). As per CRREM, the gross internal area is used to avoid distorting the indicator with non-heated surfaces such as indoor parking. Lack of standardisation in measurement codes can have a major impact on the calculation of this KPI: based on an alternative definition using the Gross Floor Area (GFA) or Gross External Area (GEA), our 2023 net energy use intensity would decrease to 148 kWh/m².
130kWh/m² nEUI target for 2030
The bandwidth shows the combined pathways committed by the different governments for the healthcare sector in their countries (the eight countries where Aedifica operates) as part of the Paris Agreement, expressed in net energy use intensity (kWh/m2 ).
Aedifica has developed a building assessment framework that provides our technical property management team with a structure to monitor the quality of each building. Although Aedifica is not directly involved in the operation of our care homes, we have an impact on how infrastructure is designed, built and maintained in accordance with evolving regulations and current construction techniques. The building assessment framework is based on three pillars: proper monitoring of the overall maintenance condition, the energy consumption and sustainability character of our buildings and their compliance with all applicable regulations.
The sustainability pillar of the building assessment framework provides local Aedifica teams with a roadmap for minimising the environmental impact of their respective portfolio. This framework defines technical requirements for energy efficiency, environmental aspects (e.g., measures to reduce water consumption and improve biodiversity), health criteria (e.g., ventilation rates for air quality) and quality of life criteria for residents (e.g., accessibility) for future development projects. Our development projects in the Netherlands generally already meet most of these criteria, as the Dutch version of our sustainable development framework is similar to the GPR standard.
Moreover, as part of the building assessment, we also carry out a review of 42 risk items. For each development, acquisition and standing investment, we assess a spectrum of potential risks, including loss of general use of the building, flood risk, stability risk, fire risk, explosion risk, environmental impact, energy/sustainability certification and health and safety issues.

Monitoring consumption data

Improving building certificates
Thanks to the awareness we have created among our operators, we were able to achieve 86% data coverage for our portfolio's energy consumption. Coverage for water consumption has increased to 81% for 2023. This means that we have currently reached our goal of achieving a coverage of at least 80% for both energy and water consumption by 2025.
During 2023, we continued to work on the implementation of an Energy Management System (EMS) to further automate data collection for energy consumption and GHG emission data and to ensure proper insight into the quality of data sources. This EMS system supports on the one hand the data verification and thus ensures that the reported numbers are more robust, and on the other hand, the tool facilitates communication with our stakeholders about the performance of the portfolio. We will continuously work on expanding data coverage and quality.
By collecting, validating and verifying operational data, we are improving our understanding of our buildings' footprint. This is an important step in engaging with our operators so that we are better equipped to jointly develop plans for net zero emission at the asset level. As a building owner, we collect consumption data over a one-year reference period to benchmark our buildings and provide feedback and recommendations to our tenants.
In 2023, we measured the energy consumption of 532 assets, which consumed a total of 274,541 MWh of energy. On a like-for-like basis, 2023 electricity consumption decreased by 1% compared to 2022 and the share of green electricity increased to 23% from 15% in 2022. Our continued efforts in implementing management systems as part of our new labelling strategy will continue to positively impact these numbers. Ongoing energy-saving projects will encourage operators to further decrease energy consumed and expand renewable energy installations on our properties, thereby increasing the use of renewable energy sources.
In 2023, 189 assets used district heating instead of using a single production unit. The advantage of using district heating is that the energy needed for the community is produced on a larger scale and in this way efficiency gains can be made. 351 of our assets use fuel to heat the property, to provide hot water, and cook. Compared to 2022, on a like-for-like basis comparison, fuel consumption decreased by 4%.
The site net energy use intensity of a building represents the amount of energy consumed from the energy grid (in kWh) per square meter and includes all uses of energy in our buildings from the lighting, heating and cooling installations, including the plug loads from kitchens and laundry rooms, net of any renewable energy generated onsite (e.g. through solar panels). The average net energy intensity of our portfolio decreased by 5% from 167 kWh/m² in 2022 to 158 kWh/m² in 2023. This decrease can be attributed in part to our energy efficiency measures, but is also due to less directly measurable effects ranging from the increasing awareness among our tenants to fluctuations in the average annual outdoor temperatures. In the Western Europe, 2023 was a slightly warmer year than 2022, resulting in lower energy demand for building heating. In Northern Europe, however, 2023 was significantly colder than 2022, resulting in higher energy demand for building heating.
As we collaborate with our operators to reduce gross energy demand of our assets, it is equally important that the remaining energy consumed is procured from renewable sources, either through on-site generation of green energy contract. We encourage our operators to follow our lead and take steps to reduce electricity consumption and switch to green power contracts, as this would significantly reduce the indirect greenhouse gas emissions of our portfolio. The share of green electricity within our portfolio's total electricity consumption increased from 14% in 2022 to 21% in 2023.
With the intention of reducing direct emissions for our portfolio, we are increasingly investing in renewable technologies to meet our buildings' heating demand. To this end, 104 of our assets were using heat pumps as their main production unit. On specific sites, alternative systems such as biomass, for example, are being examined.
The primary source of water supply for our assets is municipal water. We monitor 81% of water use in our portfolio, totalling 1,282 megalitres in 2023. Like-for-Like water intensity – indicating the amount of water used per square meter – increased slightly by 2% compared to 2022. We continue our efforts to raise awareness of efficient water consumption among our tenants.
For waste management in our portfolio, we strive to maintain complete and consistent data through ongoing dialogue with our operators. In 2023, we collected waste data for 20% of our portfolio, totalling 3,071 tonnes.

Waste performance
To properly assess the intrinsic energy performance of the assets in our portfolio, we continuously collect information from our operators and benchmark their relative environmental performance. For this purpose, we compare actual energy consumption with the energy levels stated in the applicable EPC1 standard.
EPCs were first introduced as part of the EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive and will continue to play an important role in the future as part of EU Taxonomy regulations. EPCs give us an independent picture of a building's energy efficiency by documenting not only a label, but also an estimate of its energy intensity. Buildings with an EPC of level C or better are considered compliant with the country's standards/ambitions.
Since we started identifying the existing certificates in our portfolio in 2020, we have been able to compile a comprehensive overview. We increased the EPC coverage of the entire portfolio from 76% in 2022 to 90% in 2023 (+18%).
Building on the insights from our EPC overview, we have developed a clear roadmap to structurally improve the energy efficiency of the portfolio:
Energy inefficient buildings may be considered for asset rotation when renovation is not feasible.

Corporate performance
Reducing our carbon impact Climate neutral corporate carbon footprint
In 2023, we continued to monitor the carbon footprint of our operations. Compared to our real estate portfolio, carbon emissions of our organisation are relatively limited. However, we take action at every level where we leave a carbon footprint. In 2022, we started implementing a net zero carbon pathway to also minimise the impact of our administrative activities. This includes procuring energy from renewable sources, electrifying the company's car park and educating all employees about their carbon impact, and offsetting our remaining carbon emissions.
In 2023, we emitted approx. 452 tCO2e, or 3.6 tCO2e per FTE. This represents a 72% increase in absolute numbers compared to 2019 (263 tCO2e), our benchmark year. This increase in absolute numbers can be explained by the growth of the company, more than doubling the workforce compared to 2019. Carbon intensity per FTE decreased by -20% compared to 2019. As a reminder: the years 2020 and 2021 were heavily impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic, this resulted in an important decrease of emissions related to company cars, business travel and commuting. In 2023 these categories increased again, but overall emissions per FTE are still well below 2019 levels, reflecting our efforts in reducing our carbon impact. All electricity consumed at our headquarters is generated from renewable energy sources. Primary sources of GHG emissions are related to our transport; company cars accounted for 60% and other business travel 21%.
At our headquarters, we developed a comprehensive mobility plan, understanding that this is an important tool to provide our employees with a better work-life balance and increase their job satisfaction. As part of this plan, our employees were offered the opportunity to work from home occasionally and are incentivised to use public transportation or bicycles for their daily commute in the form of a bicycle allowance and full reimbursements for train tickets. With the help of a new car policy, the greening of our company car fleet has continued.
In addition to the various initiatives to reduce our emissions, Aedifica has chosen to voluntarily offset its current corporate carbon footprint. With the help of an external partner, the consistency of the collected data as well as the reported emissions were subject to a 'limited assurance' review.
In 2023, carbon emissions for the total corporate carbon footprint of our organisation were offset by supporting two global certified climate projects:
• KIKONDA FOREST RESERVE: The project covers 120 km² of forest in the heart of East Africa. Over one million trees (muses, pine, and eucalyptus) are planted and managed in an advanced agroforestry scheme. 20% of the land is earmarked for conservation, with many wetlands along riverbeds being protected. Besides this core activity, great efforts are undertaken to support local schools, fight illiteracy, qualify locals and restore ecosystems.
• TIIPAALGA COOKSTOVES: Many regions in Burkina Faso are suffering from desertification, soil degradation and increasingly frequent droughts. The high demand of firewood leads the region into more severe forms of desertification. This project promotes the distribution and use of the mud-made efficient wood stove 'F3PA' (Foyer Trois Pierres Améliorés) in the province of Kourwéogo, located in the region Plateau Central in the centre of Burkina Faso. It replaces the traditional stove while respecting the local three stone cooking culture as these three stones are integrated into the design.

Aedifica's non-financial reporting is based on the EPRA sBPR guidelines and is in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative's (GRI) standard: Core level. Consideration has been given to the GRI's industry-specific supplement for the construction and real estate sector.
Aedifica limits its non-financial reporting to healthcare real estate properties owned by the Group in accordance with the principles of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol. Within this scope, all owned properties are considered except for properties owned by our former entity Immobe NV/SA, which includes only apartment buildings. This branch has been excluded from the Group level consolidation since March 2019. Corporate data covers our daily activities at our leased administrative headquarters in Brussels.
To assess the sustainable performance figures of Aedifica's portfolio, consumption data is collected in a systematic dialogue with our operators. In order to establish our carbon footprint and monitor the impact of the efforts of landlords and operators combined, it is important to have frequent access to reliable data. This can be achieved in a number of ways; either by directly receiving this from the utility companies based on their digital meters, from an intermediate company who is working with the utility companies, by installing additional (sub) meters of our own or by receiving them directly from the operators.
As part of our roadmap, Aedifica aims to further improve data coverage and quality over the next few years. We strive to increase the coverage of our report every year. Waste production data are not actively monitored by our operators, which makes it hard to provide sound information. In the coming years, we will increase awareness on this subject and report on these data as well.
All data on our portfolio's energy consumption were obtained via the operators' energy management system or energy accounting system.
Intensity ratios were measured by using the building's total floor area as a denominator.
In line with international ambitions and climate agreements, Aedifica, in collaboration with an external partner, calculated the climate impact of its corporate activities and 86% of its total portfolio, a significant improvement compared to the 43% data coverage of 2019. For this reason, the absolute data consumption (portfolio) increased significantly in the last two years and cannot be compared in absolute terms.
We calculate our emissions in line with the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard by considering the following emission factors from the 'UK Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy - Green-house gas reporting' and the 'International Energy Agency':
The location-based method reflects the average emissions intensity of grids on which energy consumption occurs (using grid-average emission factors specific to our countries). The market-based method reflects emissions from (green) electricity purposefully procured for that asset. Both approaches are reported for portfolio-related emissions.
