Energy intensity of our properties better than German average

The weighted average of the final energy consumptions on the basis of the current energy performance certificate of properties. Discrepancies in the final energy requirements of approximately 20 kWh may arise due to the non-specification of the type of heating in question. The allocation according to current category of energy efficiency of properties is therefore based solely on the classification in accordance with the German Energy Saving Ordinance (EnEV). Taking account of approximately 30,000 listed units for which no energy performance certificate is required, the data comprises approximately 100% of our total portfolio.

  • → 77% of employees are happy with Deutsche Wohnen as employee

Corporate Governance Strategically manage sustainability activities

  • Concept for incorporating the recommendations of TCFD into Group reporting
  • Make carbon footprint quantifiable via upstream and downstream supply chains to refine the investment strategy for the achievement of the climate protection goals
  • Add energy efficiency criteria to the portfolio management system
  • ESG is element of management compensation as execution of sustainability programme forms part of STI compensation

Initiatives to improve CO2 footprint

  • Deutsche Wohnen hosted a Climate Conference in October 2020
  • Engagement with politics, science and stakeholders
  • Combine economic, social and ecologic aspects in the interest of landlords and tenants
  • Socially responsible climate protection is possible for the housing industry
  • Proposal to resolve conflicting goals of climate protection and affordability
  • Majority of tenants are in favor of climate protection but only willing/ able to pay a limited amount
  • Proposal: tenants receive subsidies to cover rental uplifts from energetic refurbishments for a limited time
  • Decreasing subsidy leading to slight rent adjustment over time but tenants benefit immediately from reduced energy costs
  • Funding through the Energy and Climate Fund (CO2 pricing legislation by the German Federal Government)
  • Cooperation with GETEC to further enhance energy efficiency
  • 1,000 photovoltaic systems and 2,000 charging poles targeted within the Deutsche Wohnen settlements
  • Savings potential of 14,000 t CO2 p.a.
  • Investment of ca. EUR 75m over the next 10 years

Our proposal for a socially responsible climate protection in the residential property space

  • Energy efficient refurbishment need to accelerate, refurbishment rate would need to increase from 1% to 2.5% in Germany
  • Many tenants do not support refurbishment as this leads to rent increases whose amount exceeds potential energy cost savings
  • Deutsche Wohnen's proposal is to cover modernization costs of up to 8% by the Energy and Climate Fund ("EKF"). It was set up by the federal government to finance measures for improving energy efficiency, funded by income from auctioning of CO2 emission rights
  • Over a period of 15 years, this support would taper off in a linear fashion, ensuring that tenants would only slowly begin to contribute to climate costs. At the same time, residents would benefit from lower energy consumption and improved quality of life from day one.
  • We are also proposing the same level of support for owner-occupied property

Overview of regulatory environment for nursing homes (2/2)

  • Germany is one of few countries which requires all citizens to have either public or private long-term care insurance
  • − Care Funds (Pflegekassen) provide a cost cover for care related services to the operator, based on the level of patient care necessary
  • − Care Funds supported by mandatory social insurance as provided by care insurance law1
  • − Funded at a contribution rate of 3.05% of gross salary and 3.30% respectively for childless employees
  • In addition to national regulation, there are different regional legislations on fit-out standards, multi-occupancy ratios minimum room measurement and employee skills (not homogeneous)

Germany has one of the most stable funding systems for long-term care in Europe

▪ Nursing home operator market is very fragmented

  • − Top ten private operators only c. 13% market share, expected to increase further
  • − Private operators manage c. 42%
  • − Many small (family) operators, often with less than 10 facilities and capex backlog
  • Occupancy levels vary widely across operators and regions
  • − Average occupancy rate of c. 90%
  • − Free capacity in many instances does not fulfil today's standards for nursing homes (i.e.: free capacity ≠ available capacity)
  • Significant consolidation trend among private operators in recent years
  • − 3 of the top 5 operators are international companies
  • − Consolidation is expected to continue and to accelerate professionalism (and therewith profitability) of overall sector
  • Private operators increase their capacity the fastest (by acquisition or greenfield projects); growth of non-profit operators limited by funding constraints
