OUR SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY

By improving the energy efficiency

of our vessels, through their hydrodynamic performance or by optimizing routes and speeds, we have reduced CO2 emissions per teu-km by 49% between 2008 and 2020. Further to this, during a UN Global Compact conference of the United Nations in June 2020, Rodolphe Saadé announced an ambitious new goal for the Group: to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.

LNG, FIRST OPERATIONAL SOLUTION TOWARD THE TRANSITION With the entry into our fleet of

the CMA CGM JACQUES SAADE in September 2020, first LNG-

powered container ship with a capacity of 23,000 TEUs, we have taken a major step forward and demonstrated our determination to find immediately operational

solutions to accelerate the energy transition in our sector. An LNG-powered vessel emits up to 20% less CO2 than a regular oil-powered system.

LNG propulsion also makes it possible to achieve major reductions in terms of atmospheric pollutants, enabling a 99% reduction in sulfur dioxide. By 2022, 26 vessels equipped with this state-of-the-art technology will have joined our fleet. In the

meantime, we continue to work with our industrial partners to reduce the methane slip with an action plan in order to minimize its impact in the short term. In parallel with the development of LNG, in 2019 we initiated the use of second-generation biofuels. Produced from used cooking oil, this is the most promising source of biofuels in terms of
