Our governance

A committed Board of Directors

TotalEnergies' governance is based on a committed Board of Directors that oversees the Company's strategy and operations, including its transition strategy and sustainable development approach.

An Executive Committee entrusted with implementing the Company's transition strategy

The Executive Committee is responsible for implementing the Company's transition strategy, which is anchored on two pillars: Oil & Gas (notably LNG) and electricity, the energy at the heart of the transition.

An operational structure built around the Company's business segments

The Company's operational structure is organized around its business segments to support the implementation of its multi-energy strategy and sustainable development objectives.

Board composition and diversity

• 22.2% of Executive Committee members and 33.3% of the G70 are women in 2024
• 29.5% of senior executives are women and 25.8% of senior managers are women in 2024
• 38.6% of senior executives are non-French nationals and 36.4% of senior managers are non-French nationals in 2024

Integration of sustainability-related performance in incentive schemes

Overview

TotalEnergies integrates sustainability-related performance into incentive schemes for the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Senior Executives, and all employees through both annual variable compensation and long-term performance share plans.

Roles covered

• Chairman and Chief Executive Officer: Extra-financial criteria account for 39% of maximum variable compensation
• Senior Executives: Extra-financial criteria account for 30% of variable compensation
• All employees: More than 12,000 employees participate in performance share plans with sustainability criteria

Annual variable compensation (Short-term incentive)

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

The variable portion takes into account both quantifiable targets (financial, Safety and GHG emission change parameters) and qualitative criteria (personal contribution).

Breakdown of annual variable compensation criteria:

Senior Executives

Breakdown of annual variable compensation criteria:

Long-term incentive (Performance share plans)

Since 2020, performance share award criteria for the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and all Company employees include performance conditions related to climate targets.

2024 grant performance share plan criteria:

Detail of climate criteria:

• 15% of award linked to lifecycle carbon intensity criterion for energy products sold to customers
• 15% linked to changes in methane emissions

Evolution of sustainability KPIs

GHG emissions criterion evolution:

Starting in 2019, the Board of Directors included a quantifiable criterion related to the change in GHG emissions (Scope 1+2) from operated facilities in the variable compensation of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

Starting from the 2024 performance share plan, the Board replaced the criterion related to evolution of GHG emissions from operated facilities (Scope 1+2) with the criterion related to lifecycle carbon intensity of energy products sold to customers (Scope 1+2+3).

Lifecycle carbon intensity: This indicator measures the average GHG emissions of energy products used by the Company's customers, throughout their life cycle, from production to final use, per unit of energy. The use of this criterion links long-term incentive compensation to the Company's ambition and the ultimate goal of the transition strategy: to reduce the carbon content of energy products sold to customers while providing them with more energy.

Review and governance

The compensation policy for the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer is reviewed annually by the Board of Directors, on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee. The Board of Directors has a proactive approach to this issue.

Details of compensation for fiscal year 2024 and the compensation policy for the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer for fiscal year 2025 are provided in point 4.3.2 of chapter 4. Directors' remuneration policy is described in point 4.3.1 of chapter 4.

Energy consumption and mix

Total energy consumption

Net primary energy consumption: 156 TWh (operated perimeter) in 2024

This represents the Company's internal energy use across operated facilities.

Disaggregated energy consumption mix

TotalEnergies reports net primary energy consumption for its operated facilities. The document provides production data and facility information but does not present a complete ESRS E1-7 compliant disaggregated energy consumption table breaking down fuel consumption by source type (coal, crude oil, natural gas, other fossil), purchased electricity/heat/steam by source, nuclear, and renewable sources with subtypes.

Partial information available:

• Total net primary energy consumption (operated perimeter): 156 TWh in 2024
• Renewable electricity production (own generation): 26.0 TWh net in 2024 (compared to 18.9 TWh in 2023 and 10.4 TWh in 2022)
• Gas-based flexible power production: 15.1 TWh net in 2024 (compared to 14.5 TWh in 2023 and 22.8 TWh in 2022)

Scope and methodology

The 156 TWh net primary energy consumption figure is reported for the "operated perimeter" covering facilities operated by TotalEnergies. The document notes energy efficiency programs (e.g., $1 billion investment 2023-2025, additional $1 billion 2026-2028) and references the "Go Green" initiative for low-carbon electricity supply to European and US Refining & Chemicals assets, but does not provide a full breakdown of energy consumed by source category as required by ESRS E1-7.

The Company reports GHG emissions intensity of Upstream oil & gas activities at 17 kg CO2e/boe in 2024 (excluding LNG assets, operated perimeter only).

Energy intensity

Not disclosed in the excerpts provided.

Note on disclosure

TotalEnergies provides an aggregate net primary energy consumption figure (156 TWh for operated perimeter) but does not present the full ESRS E1-7 disaggregated table showing fuel consumption by type (coal, oil, natural gas, other fossil), purchased energy by source, nuclear, and renewable energy with subtypes. The report focuses extensively on production activities, emissions reduction initiatives, and renewable electricity generation capacity rather than a detailed consumption breakdown by energy source category.

Gross Scopes 1, 2, 3 and Total GHG emissions

Scope 1+2 emissions from operated facilities (Mt CO₂e)

The 2030 target is net of nature-based carbon sinks (NBS). NBS credits will be used from 2030 onwards. In 2024, the Company enhanced its 2025 target from <38.8 Mt CO₂e to <37 Mt CO₂e.

Scope 1+2 intensity (Upstream Oil & Gas operated):

• 2015: 21 kg CO₂e/boe
• 2024: 17 kg CO₂e/boe

Scope 1+2 operated emissions include stationary combustion, mobile combustion, process emissions, and fugitive emissions. The methodology includes operated facilities at 100% (operated perimeter). CCGT emissions relate to Integrated Power gas-fired power plants. In 2024, emissions from Oil & Gas operated assets decreased by 36% vs. 2015, while overall operated emissions decreased by 25% vs. 2015, reflecting the addition of flexible electricity generation.

Methane emissions from operated facilities (kt CH₄)

Excludes biogenic methane. Methane intensity for Upstream operated oil & gas facilities was 0.1% of commercial gas produced in 2024.

Scope 2 emissions

The report does not separately disclose Scope 2 location-based and market-based emissions. Scope 2 is consolidated within the Scope 1+2 operated facilities figure above.

Scope 3 emissions (Category 11 – Use of sold products)

*As originally published. If recalculated according to IPIECA value chain methodology (published in 2016) on the gas value chain, 2015 would be 465 Mt CO₂e (344 Mt oil, 121 Mt gas).

Biofuels chain excluded from Scope 3 Cat. 11 and reported separately for 2023 and 2024, as per ESRS methodology. Scope 3 petroleum products sold worldwide decreased by 38% in 2024 compared to 2015.

Scope 3 categories covered: Category 11 (Use of sold products) is disclosed. The report does not disclose Categories 1–10, 12–15. The Company states that most Scope 3 emissions correspond to direct emissions (Scope 1) of consumers using its products (oil, gas, LNG).

Lifecycle carbon intensity of energy products sold (Scope 1+2+3)

This indicator reflects the carbon content of energy products sold to customers, covering Scope 1+2+3 on a lifecycle basis. The reduction is driven by growth in electricity sales, reduction of Scope 1+2 emissions from operated facilities, shift to gas (particularly LNG), and low-carbon molecules (biofuels, biogas). The intensity decreased from 73 g CO₂e/MJ in 2015 to approximately 61 g CO₂e/MJ in 2024 (based on -16.5% reduction).

Total GHG emissions

The report does not provide a single consolidated figure summing Scope 1, 2, and 3 in the format typically required by ESRS E1-6 / E1-8. The key disclosed metrics are:

• Scope 1+2 operated: 34 Mt CO₂e in 2024
• Scope 3 Category 11: 342 Mt CO₂e in 2024

A simple arithmetic sum would yield 376 Mt CO₂e (Scope 1+2+3 Cat. 11), but this is not formally presented as a consolidated total in the report. The lifecycle carbon intensity metric above encompasses Scope 1+2+3 on an intensity basis.

GHG intensity metrics

• Scope 1+2 intensity (Upstream Oil & Gas operated): 17 kg CO₂e/boe in 2024 (vs. 21 kg CO₂e/boe in 2015)
• Lifecycle carbon intensity of energy products sold: -16.5% vs. 2015 (73 g CO₂e/MJ baseline)
• Methane intensity (Upstream operated): 0.1% of commercial gas produced in 2024

The report does not disclose GHG emissions per net revenue (tCO₂eq/M€).

Regulated emissions

The report does not separately disclose emissions covered by EU ETS or other compliance schemes.

Biogenic CO₂ emissions

The report excludes biogenic methane from methane emissions reporting. It does not separately quantify biogenic CO₂ emissions from biofuels/biogas combustion (Scope 1) in the format required by ESRS.

Enabled emissions reductions (non-ESRS disclosure)

The Company estimates enabled emissions reductions from LNG sales (~65 Mt CO₂e in 2024) and renewable electricity generation (~18 Mt CO₂e in 2024), totaling ~83 Mt CO₂e. By 2030, enabled reductions could reach ~150 Mt CO₂e (~90 Mt from LNG, ~60 Mt from renewables). These are not deducted from Scope 3 but disclosed as contextual information.

Reporting scope and methodology notes

• Operated facilities perimeter (Scope 1+2): Includes assets where TotalEnergies is the operator at 100% operational control. Non-operated assets (25 Mt CO₂e equity share in 2024, of which 11 Mt included in ESRS perimeter) are tracked separately.
• Scope 3 Category 11 methodology: Uses end-use combustion emissions of oil and gas products sold. Biofuels chain excluded per ESRS methodology. The Company does not set an absolute reduction target for Scope 3, emphasizing that reductions depend on customer decisions and energy system changes.
• ESRS perimeter: The report references ESRS perimeter for certain disclosures (e.g., freshwater withdrawal 92 Mm³, non-operated equity emissions 11 Mt). The Scope 1+2 figure of 34 Mt CO₂e appears to align with the operated perimeter.
• Baseline recalculation: For Scope 3 Cat. 11, the 2015 baseline of 410 Mt CO₂e is maintained for consistency. A recalculated 2015 baseline applying IPIECA methodology would be 465 Mt CO₂e.
• Nature-based carbon sinks: From 2030, residual Scope 1+2 emissions will be offset using NBS credits at ~10% stock consumption per year (~5 million credits/year). Stock reached 13.7 million credits by end-2024.

Data assurance

The report references external audits: Wood Mackenzie audited Scope 1+2 emissions trajectories and lifecycle carbon intensity calculations. The Company achieved OGMP 2.0 Gold Standard for methane reporting (4th consecutive year as of 2024). Sustainability auditors were selected via call for tenders in 2024 (noted in Board activities).

Substances of concern and substances of very high concern

Policy and management approach

TotalEnergies monitors the use of substances of concern (SoC) and substances of very high concern (SVHC) across its operations, with particular focus on compliance with REACH regulations in Europe and equivalent frameworks in other regions.

Identification and listing

For operated sites:

• Hazardous products such as carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic to reproduction (CMR) chemicals are listed and their risks identified as part of the One MAESTRO prevention framework
• In countries with no regulatory framework, criteria of minimum toxicity, minimum bioaccumulation potential and maximum biodegradability are used to select chemicals
• A documented chemical management procedure must be implemented to limit risks to the environment, taking into account selection, storage, transportation, use, possible associated emissions and disposal

For polymer production:

• The Company carries out continuous assessment of substances used, in compliance with the strictest local regulations for health and environmental protection, particularly REACH regulations in the EU where most operated production sites are located

For Marketing & Services products:

• Traceability of substances used and associated certifications are ensured from purchase to delivery of batches to customers
• Safety data sheets accompany petroleum and chemical products marketed by the Company
• Teams of regulatory experts, toxicologists and ecotoxicologists ensure preparation of safety documentation and REACH registration (or equivalent in other geographical regions)

Phase-out commitments

TotalEnergies is working to eliminate and/or replace, where possible, substances of concern and substances of very high concern. Action has been taken on operated facilities to:

• Eliminate asbestos: The Company prohibits the use of materials containing asbestos in new buildings and installations. These components are gradually being removed from plants as part of a comprehensive asbestos removal plan launched several years ago
• Eliminate PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls): The Company prohibits the use of equipment containing PCBs. These components have been progressively eliminated from installations as part of a global PCB elimination plan launched several years ago
• Eliminate HFCs and HCFCs: In accordance with European Union regulations relating to fluorinated GHGs, the Company has banned since years the use of the targeted HFC and HCFC gases

Monitoring and reporting

Europe: In accordance with regulations, the Company's operated sites maintain an up-to-date list of substances of concern (SoC) and substances of very high concern (SVHC) present in their purchases and sales (with associated quantities).

Outside Europe: Regulations in force do not provide for similar monitoring. The Company has asked its operated sites located outside of Europe to engage in this process. Based on the data collected, it is not possible at this stage for the Company to publish an estimate of the quantities concerned in accordance with its quality assurance approach for published data.

Non-operated sites: The Company has questioned the operators of its non-operated sites to collect their information concerning SoC and SVHC. The operators of these sites are mainly located in countries not subject to European regulations and have no obligation to collect and make this information public. In 2024, less than 15% of third-party operated entities provided SoC and SVHC data, and the Company is therefore unable to publish this information. The Company has not identified any reasonable scientific basis for making estimates of these missing data at this stage.

Conclusion

TotalEnergies fully shares the desire to replace and/or minimize the use of substances of concern and to phase out the use of substances of very high concern in the industry. The Company regularly monitors product safety in order to eliminate and/or replace, where possible, substances of concern and extremely high concern that may be present in its industrial processes. However, quantitative disclosure of total SoC and SVHC tonnages is not yet available due to data collection challenges, particularly outside Europe and for non-operated sites.

• Remedial action following any spill aiming for return of environment to acceptable state

Targets related to pollution

The document states that "For its operated perimeter, the Company has set itself environmental progress targets for 2030" under section 5.2.2.2 (E2-2, E2-3). However, no specific quantified pollution targets are disclosed in the provided excerpts.

The excerpts reference section 5.2.2.2 as containing "Targets, actions and resources related to pollution at operated sites (E2-2, E2-3)" but only contain qualitative information about:

• Action plans to address accidental pollution situations
• Oil spill preparedness metrics and exercises
• Well integrity management and emergency response systems

No specific pollution reduction targets with target values, baseline years, or target years are disclosed in the provided text.

Oil spill preparedness metrics (monitoring, not targets)

Note: These are preparedness indicators, not targets.

Pollution of air, water and soil

Emissions to Air

TotalEnergies monitors atmospheric chronic emissions from its operated sites above the reporting threshold values provided for in the E-PRTR (European Pollutants Releases and Transfer Register) regulation.

Atmospheric chronic emissions (in kt)

Note: In 2024, quantities emitted by the operated sites and above the reporting threshold values provided for in the E-PRTR regulation.

Detailed emissions to air (2024, in tonnes/year)

Emissions to Water

TotalEnergies sets voluntary environmental targets for hydrocarbon content in continuous liquid discharges from its operated sites.

Discharged water quality

Emissions to water (2024, in tonnes/year)

Accidental Spills to Soil

TotalEnergies monitors accidental spills of liquid hydrocarbons greater than one barrel reaching the environment (excluding theft or acts of sabotage) from operated sites.

Accidental spills

Microplastics

For polymer production activities, TotalEnergies estimates that microplastics disseminated (plastic granules with diameter less than 5 mm) represent approximately 0.0001% of total polymer production. The Company is working to implement the Operation Clean Sweep® methodology to determine the volume of microplastics disseminated more precisely.

Non-Operated Sites

For non-operated sites, data collection for 2024 achieved only 14% coverage for water emissions and 0-40% for air emissions depending on pollutant type. Quantities of pollutants emitted by non-operated sites and microplastics from these sites are therefore not available for fiscal year 2024. The Company will continue to request data from operators in 2025.

Anticipated financial effects from pollution-related impacts, risks and opportunities

Phase-in exemption applied

The Company has chosen not to disclose in this first Sustainability Report the information relating to the disclosure requirements and data points phased-in (ESRS 1 - Appendix C), the disclosure of which may be deferred, in particular the expected financial effects (ESRS 2 SBM-1 §40, b and c; ESRS 2 SBM-3 48.e, E1-9, E2-6, E3-5, E4-6 and E5-6) as well as certain information or disclosure requirements relating to ESRS S1 (S1-7, S1-8, S1-11, S1-14 and S1-15).

Policies related to water and marine resources

TotalEnergies does not identify a specific named policy dedicated to water and marine resources, but describes its approach within its broader environmental management framework.

Environmental policy approach to water

Key principles:

• TotalEnergies places the environment at the heart of its ambition of being a responsible company with a goal to improve the environmental performance of its operated facilities, specifically by encouraging responsible and sustainable water management
• The Company does not use marine resources for its operations
• A full life-cycle environmental risk assessment must be carried out prior to any development project or product launch
• The Company requires existing operated sites to control their use of natural resources

Risk management principles for water resources:

• Identification of priority sensitive sites by monitoring water withdrawals, and then a risk assessment
• Improvement of water resources management depending on local or national identified needs, by adapting the priority sites' environmental management system

Scope:

• Applies to operated facilities
• For non-operated sites, TotalEnergies strives to share and promote best practices with the concerned operators, including in water stressed areas
• For upstream value chain (purchases of goods and services), the Company has a responsible purchasing program

Implementation requirements:

• An internal rule relating to the management and protection of the environment for the operated domain specifies that sites located in water stress areas and withdrawing more than 500,000 m³ of fresh water per year must draw up a detailed analysis of the actual risk of dependence on water resources
• This analysis takes all stakeholders into account
• The rule also calls for the assessment of means to optimize freshwater consumption aligned with the level of risk

Monitoring:

• TotalEnergies conducts a survey of freshwater withdrawals at all its operated sites
• Sites are evaluated according to the WRI's "Aqueduct" current and future water stress indices, which consider withdrawals by local stakeholders and three IPCC scenarios (SSP1 RCP2.6, SSP3 RCP7.0, SSP5 RCP8.5)
• 11 material operated sites identified in 2024 as located in water stress areas and withdrawing more than 500,000 m³ of water per year

Actions and resources related to water

TotalEnergies has defined action-levers to achieve its 2030 target for reducing freshwater withdrawals at material operated sites in water-stressed zones. The actions are categorized into three main types:

Action-levers for water withdrawal reduction

• Reuse tap water: Using treated domestic wastewater or municipal water for industrial processes
• Reuse process water: Internal recycling and reuse of process water
• Internal optimizations: Process improvements, equipment optimization, and operational changes

Target: Reduction of freshwater withdrawals in water-stressed zones from 50 million m³ (2021 baseline) to 30 million m³ by 2030.

• Includes internal water reuse (process water for crude oil desalting, semi-open cooling loops purges, produced water reinjection) and effluent discharge reuse projects

Targets related to water

Freshwater withdrawal reduction target

Target metric: Freshwater withdrawal in water stress areas

Target value: Maximum of 44 million m³ of water withdrawal from water stressed areas (20% reduction from baseline)

Target year: 2030

Baseline year: 2021

Baseline value: 55 million m³

Scope: 11 material operated sites in water stress areas (100% coverage)

Target type: Absolute reduction target

Validation: Voluntary target, internally set (not science-based or externally validated)

Geographic scope: Global operated sites identified in water stress areas

Target basis: Based on identification of material operated sites in water stress areas, beyond regulatory requirements

Progress to date

Note: The freshwater withdrawal increase in 2024 is essentially linked to the acquisition of a new site. The basin of Carling - St Avold sites in France is excluded because the withdrawal of groundwater is administratively imposed there for environmental reasons.

Action levers

The Company identifies three main action levers to achieve the 2030 target:

• Reuse tap water
• Reuse process water
• Internal optimizations

Water consumption

Total water consumption and withdrawal (ESRS perimeter - operated sites)

TotalEnergies reports the following water metrics for its operated sites within the ESRS perimeter:

Water withdrawal in water stress areas - Material operated sites

For the 11 material operated sites (sites located in water stress areas withdrawing more than 500,000 m³ per year):

Note: The basin of Carling - St Avold sites in France is excluded because the withdrawal of groundwater is administratively imposed there for environmental reasons.

Water consumption as percentage of total withdrawal

The water stress area withdrawal values are evaluated from the WRI Projected Water Stress 2030 V4.0 of August 2023. Water consumption in water stress areas represents 58% of total fresh water consumption (26/45 million m³).

Water intensity

For the SASB reporting scope:

Discharge quality metrics

Produced water (Exploration & Production segment only)

Scope and methodology

Operated sites: All water data for operated sites are collected through TotalEnergies' environmental reporting system covering the entire operated domain. Volumes are monitored continuously at material sites using flow meters checked according to site-specific frequency.

Non-operated sites: The Company collected data from operators of non-operated sites for 2024. Only 73% of sites provided data, and only 3 of 9 non-operated sites in water stress areas provided information. Due to insufficient coverage, non-operated site data is not published. 94% of non-operated production comes from operators not subject to European regulations with no obligation to provide this data.

Water recycling: Includes internal water reuse (e.g., reuse of process water for crude oil desalting, semi-open cooling loops purges, produced water reinjection), and projects to reuse sites' effluent discharges.

Anticipated financial effects from material water and marine resources-related impacts, risks and opportunities

Phase-in exemption applied

The Company has chosen not to disclose in this first Sustainability Report the information relating to the disclosure requirements and data points phased-in (ESRS 1 - Appendix C), the disclosure of which may be deferred, in particular the expected financial effects (ESRS 2 SBM-1 §40, b and c; ESRS 2 SBM-3 48.e, E1-9, E2-6, E3-5, E4-6 and E5-6) as well as certain information or disclosure requirements relating to ESRS S1 (S1-7, S1-8, S1-11, S1-14 and S1-15).

Policies related to biodiversity and ecosystems

TotalEnergies' policy for managing its material impacts and risks related to biodiversity and ecosystems at its operated sites and projects is based on the application of the Avoid - Reduce/Restore - Offset mitigation hierarchy. This policy is part of a biodiversity ambition set in four axes, with voluntary commitments and an environmental framework (including biodiversity) applied to the operated perimeter.

Biodiversity Ambition (Four Axes)

Scope:

• Operated sites and projects
• For non-operated sites, the Company strives to promote its principles among its partners, including by sharing industry guides and best practices, as well as return on experience

Key principles and commitments:

Axis 1 - Voluntary Exclusion Zones ('Respecting our voluntary exclusion zones'):

• No oil or gas exploration or extraction activities in UNESCO World Natural Heritage areas
• No oil field exploration operations in Arctic sea ice areas

Axis 2 - Managing Biodiversity in New Projects:

• Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) required for each new site located in an area of interest for biodiversity (IUCN protected area category I to IV or Ramsar areas)
• For each new project located in an IUCN category I or II protected area or a Ramsar area, the Company commits to implementing measures to produce a net positive impact (gain) for biodiversity, confirmed by a third-party institution
• Action plan must be in place at the latest at the time of commissioning of the site
• "Zero net deforestation" policy for new projects located in new sites for which the investment decision is made after 2022

Axis 3 - Managing Biodiversity at Existing Sites:

• Biodiversity action plan must be defined by 2025 and deployed by 2030 at the latest on each material site for the environment in the operated perimeter
• Report on implementation must be developed for stakeholders
• When a site ceases operations, creation of biodiversity rich areas (e.g. rare species habitats, biodiversity sanctuaries) must be assessed as one of the options for site rehabilitation

Axis 4 - Promoting Biodiversity:

• Sharing of biodiversity data collected as part of environmental studies with the scientific community and the public

International standards and frameworks:

• Company's HSE framework requires identification of biodiversity risks and impacts using financial thresholds specific to each activity
• Biodiversity Action Plans are designed to be aligned with the International Finance Corporation (IFC) Performance Standard 6
• Local and indigenous knowledge is identified in these processes and integrated into Biodiversity and Ecosystem Action Plans where appropriate
• The targets constitute a contribution to the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, relevant aspects of the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 and other national biodiversity policies and legislations

Monitoring and implementation:

• Company rule requires the identification of impacts on biodiversity and ecosystem services, implementation of the Avoid - Reduce/Restore - Offset mitigation hierarchy and management of implementation performance
• Minimum HSE requirements for managing risks of environmental damage in operations are set out in the Company's referential
• Impacts of operations on biodiversity and ecosystem services must be identified and consultations carried out with affected communities
• Management is carried out by the affiliates
• Performance monitoring is required

Related Policies

Biodiversity issues are also included in:

• Responsible Purchasing program (described in point 5.4.3) - procurement of goods and services
• Policy for purchasing of agricultural products (raw materials) to supply biorefineries (described in point 5.2.5)
• Product management requirements - Ecotoxicological risks to biodiversity and ecosystems of TotalEnergies' chemical products are considered in the value chain downstream segment. Minimum requirements defined to market petroleum or chemical products worldwide with the goal of reducing potential impacts on the environment, including biodiversity

Governance and oversight: Not explicitly disclosed for biodiversity policies.

Public availability: List of Arctic licenses is available on the Company's website. First report of TotalEnergies EP Uganda detailing the actions of its Biodiversity Programme over the last two years was published in 2024.

Actions and resources related to biodiversity and ecosystems

Site Rehabilitation

Progress (2024): 14 former sites ceasing operations have undertaken study or implementation of biodiversity restoration actions (e.g., wetland enhancement at Villers-St-Paul site)

Impact metrics related to biodiversity and ecosystems change

Scope and methodology

TotalEnergies uses available indicators or those required by various reporting frameworks, while recognizing that, in a constantly evolving field, there is currently no commonly accepted and shared impact indicator.

The company pays particular attention to the impact of its own activities on biodiversity-sensitive areas (e.g. the Natura 2000 network, UNESCO World Heritage sites, key biodiversity areas, and other protected areas). TotalEnergies defines the proximity of its activities to these areas with the help of the Integrated Biodiversity Assessment Tool (IBAT) and the World Database on Protected Areas (WPDA).

Operated sites in protected areas (GRI 304-1)

According to GRI 304: Biodiversity 2016: Disclosure 304-1 "Operational sites owned, leased, managed in, or adjacent to, protected areas and areas of high biodiversity value outside protected areas", the sites that TotalEnergies operates within or adjacent to protected areas or areas of high biodiversity value that have the potential to negatively impact these areas are 175 sites operated by the Company, representing 6,769 hectares.

Monitoring indicators for biodiversity and ecosystems actions

In 2024, the Company requested operators the following indicators related information to monitor biodiversity and ecosystems actions implemented at its non-operated sites:

Avoidance

• Number of sites overlapping a biodiversity-sensitive area (UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site, IUCN category I to IV area, Ramsar wetland)

Reduction

• Total area of sites owned, leased or managed in or near protected areas or key biodiversity areas negatively affected by activities
• Number of sites implementing a Biodiversity Action Plan to manage impacts on biodiversity

Offset

• Number of sites implementing biodiversity offsets as part of Biodiversity Action Plans

Results from non-operated sites

The collection rate of these indicators varies between 19 and 66% and is therefore insufficient to present a complete information set. However, the use of the Company's Geographic Information System enhanced with WDPA data allowed for the estimation of the data presented in the table below.

The Company will reiterate for the 2025 reporting period its requests for information to operators of non-operated sites to improve collection rates. However, 94% of the Company's production from non-operated sites originates from operators that are not subject to European regulations and have no obligation to provide this data.

Material sites for biodiversity

By the end of 2024, 82 sites operated by the Company are considered material for the environment. Six of these sites (four production sites and two projects) overlap with an IUCN category I to IV and/or Ramsar protected area. Regarding non-operated sites that fall into the category of material sites for the environment, six non-operated sites overlap with a UNESCO WHS, IUCN I to IV and/or Ramsar protected area. In total, by the end of 2024, 12 of the Company's sites (operated and non-operated) are considered material for biodiversity.

SASB biodiversity metrics

According to SASB reporting:

• 10.1% of proved reserves are operated reserves located in or near sites with protected conservation status or endangered species habitat (EM-EP-160a.3)
• Number of hydrocarbon spills: 24 (EM-EP-160a.2)
• Volume of hydrocarbon spills: 600 m³ (3,774 barrels) (EM-EP-160a.2)
• Spills: volume in Arctic: 0 m³ (EM-EP-160a.2)
• Volume impacting shorelines with ESI rankings 8-10: 0 m³ (EM-EP-160a.2)
• Volume recovered: 28 m³ (176 barrels) (EM-EP-160a.2)

Restoration metrics

With regard to the zero net deforestation target, in 2024 a total of 186 ha of forest have been replanted for a deforestation of 156 ha. The reforestation balance is therefore 30 ha (net positive).

Transition plan and consideration of biodiversity and ecosystems in strategy and business model

Biodiversity in corporate strategy and business model

TotalEnergies pays particular attention to the necessity of preserving biodiversity, ecosystems and to protect nature, ensuring they are duly addressed in all its activities. TotalEnergies has an ambition in terms of biodiversity.

TotalEnergies' biodiversity ambition is a contribution to the Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) adopted at COP15 in 2022, which aims "to halt and reverse biodiversity loss and put nature on the path to recovery for the benefit of people and the planet."

The Company intends to contribute to this ambitious framework and its nationally implemented plans, such as the 2023 French National Biodiversity Strategy (SNB), through nature conservation and restoration concrete measures at its operated sites and projects as well as their surrounding areas. In 2016, the Company pledged to contribute to the achievement of the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including those relating to biodiversity, namely SDG 14 "Life below Water" and SDG 15 "Life on Land".

Nature-related risk assessment and use of frameworks

TotalEnergies has carried out an analysis of its material impacts and risks in relation to biodiversity and ecosystems, identifying its operated and non-operated sites that are material for biodiversity.

To identify and assess material IROs related to the environment, TotalEnergies relied on the mapping of its Dependencies, Impacts, Risks and Opportunities (DIRO) linked specifically to nature together with the recommendations of the TNFD (Task Force on Nature-related Financial Disclosure), which highlighted in particular:

• the dependencies of the Company's operated facilities on water resources (refineries, petrochemical sites, CCGT), on the availability of land (direct for solar farms and indirect for its feedstock of agricultural origin), and on weather conditions;
• impacts linked to potential pollution or to the physical footprint of its operated facilities (e.g. wind farms);
• the physical risks associated with extreme climatic events, as well as the risks of water stress and rising land prices.

This mapping was supplemented by a detailed analysis carried out with a third party, taking into account reference frameworks (IPBES, SBTN, TNFD, CSRD, etc.), stakeholder concerns as well as SBTN database for impacts and ENCORE (Exploring Natural Capital Opportunities, Risks and Exposure) proposed by the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) for dependencies. Impacts have been identified by analyzing the contribution to the various pressure factors on biodiversity (SBTN, 2023). Dependencies have been identified in relation to the various ecosystem services listed in the IPBES reference framework, 2019. In particular, the analysis identified a list of families of pollutants specific to the Company's activities and value chain. These families of pollutants include: gaseous pollutants (SO2, NOx, NMVOC, PM) and pollutants more commonly found in aqueous effluents (nitrogen, heavy metals, BTEX, hydrocarbons). The Company has also drawn on its knowledge of its activities and markets to identify the relevant incoming and outgoing resource flows to determine its sustainability challenges in terms of resource use and the circular economy.

In 2019, the Company joined the international public platform GBIF (Global Biodiversity Information Facility) with the aim of sharing its biodiversity data with the scientific community. In 2024, TotalEnergies is the third largest worldwide contributor company to the platform. 11 datasets were uploaded in 2024 and concern the Company's projects in Brazil, South Africa and Namibia. The data published by TotalEnergies now constitute 52,000 occurrences in the database and have been cited 230 times in scientific publications.

Material sites for biodiversity and ecosystems

TotalEnergies has identified its material sites for biodiversity and ecosystems. The Company defines them as sites (i) located in biodiversity-sensitive areas identified in the frame of it's biodiversity ambition, (ii) material to the environment (as defined above), and (iii) whose activities have a potential negative impact on these areas; potential negative impacts are analyzed as part of environmental and societal impact studies.

The Company defines its material sites for biodiversity as sites that are material for the environment located in biodiversity sensitive areas, as per its biodiversity ambition, namely UNESCO natural World Heritage sites, wetlands under the Ramsar Convention and IUCN category I to IV protected areas.

The materiality of sites in terms of biodiversity is assessed based on their overlap with these areas.

By the end of 2024, 82 sites operated by the Company are considered material for the environment. Six of these sites (four production sites and two projects) overlap with an IUCN category I to IV and/or Ramsar protected area. Regarding non-operated sites that fall into the category of material sites for the environment, six non-operated sites overlap with a UNESCO WHS, IUCN I to IV and/or Ramsar protected area. In total, by the end of 2024, 12 of the Company's sites (operated and non-operated) are thus considered material for biodiversity.

The list of 12 material sites for biodiversity (operated and non-operated) identified by TotalEnergies is presented in the table below.

List of material sites for biodiversity (operated and non-operated)

Potential impacts are essentially generated by the sites and related to land use change ("land") and to a lesser extent to noise and light nuisances ("nuisance"). Some impact drivers are linked to construction phases and are therefore temporary. For non-operated sites or projects (OBO: Operated By Others) over which the Company has less control, information is unknown, except for some specific cases.

The activities carried out on these sites have the potential to impact biodiversity:

• plant construction activities may lead to a change in land use and thus have an impact on biodiversity;
• the presence of certain projects can lead to an influx of people towards them because of the associated economic opportunities, thus increasing the risk of over-exploitation of local natural resources (firewood, timber, bushmeat hunting, fishing, etc.);
• discharges into the natural environment from construction activities and operations may represent a risk to species and ecosystems, and potentially to threatened species;
• these activities can contribute to the introduction of alien invasive species which impact native species and the proper functioning of ecosystems, and potentially threatened species.

Biodiversity targets

The targets adopted by the Company constitute a contribution to the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, relevant aspects of the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 and other national biodiversity policies and legislations without claiming alignment with these different frameworks.

These targets incorporate the concepts of local ecological thresholds as follows:

• the target concerning the avoidance of UNESCO Natural World Heritage areas is compatible with the SBTN nature-related avoidance 'interim targets', as it results in the absence of conversion of natural habitat, representing the avoidance of a maximum potential total area of approximately 535 million hectares at the end of 2024;
• the net gain target is set in relation to a state of reference for projects located in priority biodiversity areas such as IUCN categories I and II and Ramsar areas.

The geographical scope of the targets is the operated perimeter of the Company. In defining some of its targets, the company has used measures to offset the loss of biodiversity, as explained in the 'Offset' paragraph.

Resilience assessment

TotalEnergies has assessed the resilience of its strategy and business model to systemic, physical and transition risks associated with biodiversity and ecosystems. This assessment was carried out for its activities and raw material supplies.

It focused on the inclusion of nature-related Dependencies, Impacts, Risks and Opportunities (DIRO) in the Company's main activities long-term plans (all oil & gas and renewable energy operations, transport, battery production, biogas and biofuels, natural carbon sinks), including raw material supplies and considering the Company's products and services user expectations identified by its business units. External stakeholders were not directly involved in this assessment. The time horizon used corresponds to the duration of the plans that were analysed, or the duration of the projects when it was possible and relevant.

This assessment did not reveal any vulnerability of the Company's business model in relation to biodiversity or ecosystems.

Geographic and value chain scope

The geographical scope of the biodiversity plan is the operated perimeter of the Company.

The Sustainability Report covers the same scope of consolidation as that used for the financial statements excluding equity affiliates, as well as companies controlled by the Company that are not financially consolidated but are material from a sustainability point of view ("ESRS perimeter"). Its preparation was based on a double materiality analysis carried out by the Company, covering the Company's own operations and its upstream value chain (including tier 1 suppliers), and downstream (where relevant and possible), on the basis of information available within the Company.

Anticipated financial effects from biodiversity and ecosystem-related impacts, risks and opportunities

Phase-in exemption applied

The Company has chosen not to disclose in this first Sustainability Report the information relating to the disclosure requirements and data points phased-in (ESRS 1 - Appendix C), the disclosure of which may be deferred, in particular the expected financial effects (ESRS 2 SBM-1 §40, b and c; ESRS 2 SBM-3 48.e, E1-9, E2-6, E3-5, E4-6 and E5-6) as well as certain information or disclosure requirements relating to ESRS S1 (S1-7, S1-8, S1-11, S1-14 and S1-15).

Raw materials used by TotalEnergies for its activities (E5-4)

In 2024, the main raw materials used by TotalEnergies were:

Water

For details on the use of this resource, refer to point 5.2.3 of the report.

Hydrocarbons

• Exploration & Production sector (ESRS perimeter): Consumption amounted to almost 40 Mt for production operations.
• Other operations (ESRS perimeter excluding OBOs): Consumption exceeded 53 Mt. (Note: Data for OBOs could not be collected in 2024; a new request will be sent to operators in 2025.)

Circular raw materials

Circular raw materials include renewable raw materials (from biomass) and secondary raw materials (waste and residues). Consumption increased in 2024, mainly in connection with the development of biogas, biofuels, and circular polymers production activities.

Metals

The Company has collected data from its purchasing teams. This process led to the collection of data related to certain purchasing categories, but it was not possible to collect data on projects in 2024, which represent a significant proportion of metal purchases. Consequently, the information currently collected is not representative and the Company is therefore unable to publish it for 2024. For 2025, the Company will repeat its requests for information from suppliers to improve collection rates. However, a large number of suppliers are not subject to European regulations and are under no obligation to provide this data.

Data collection and monitoring

• Water consumption and the quantities of secondary raw materials and renewable raw materials are monitored and reported annually by the Branches in the environmental reporting tool, which ensures traceability and archiving.
• The total quantity of hydrocarbons is estimated annually at Company level based on information collected from the purchasing and supply teams and stored in the Company's environment reporting tool.

Packaging

So far, information on packaging is not available as it is not systematically declared by packaging producers.

Resource outflows

TotalEnergies has set the ambition of producing 1 Mt/y of polymers from recycled or renewable materials by 2030. In 2024, TotalEnergies produced 89 kt of recycled or renewable polymers (including recycled or renewable base), compared to 80 kt in 2023 and 50 kt in 2022.

Biopolymers and plastics recycling

Biopolymers are produced either by replacing fossil feedstock in a steam cracking unit with biomass feedstock such as vegetable oils or hydrogenated residues, or directly by making low-carbon molecules such as polylactic acid (PLA) from sugar.

Mechanical recycling, the technology for which is more mature than that for chemical recycling, requires highly processed feedstock and cannot be used for every application of plastic, particularly most of those involving contact with food. This technology is suited to the needs of markets such as automotive and construction.

Advanced or chemical recycling makes it possible to process waste that cannot be recycled mechanically and to address other markets, such as those of plastics for food use; it requires more capital-intensive technologies and is still at the stage of industrial development. The purpose of the chemical recycling process is to break down used polymer in order to return, in one or more stages, to a monomer, which is the raw material of any polymer.

Circular economy initiatives

In partnership with Plastic Energy, TotalEnergies has built an advanced recycling plant in France, with the capacity to process 15 kt/y of plastic waste. This unit converts plastic waste by pyrolysis into a recycled raw material called TACOIL™. This raw material is then transformed by TotalEnergies into polymers with properties identical to those of virgin polymers, and in particular compatible with food use.

In March 2023, TotalEnergies and Paprec entered into a long-term commercial agreement to develop the first French value chain for chemical recycling of plastic film waste.

In September 2023, TotalEnergies announced the construction of a mechanical recycling unit at Grandpuits, scheduled to be commissioned in 2026, expected to produce 30 kt/y of high added value compounds consisting of up to 50% recycled plastic materials.

Lubricants circularity

In July 2024, TotalEnergies announced the acquisition of Tecoil, a Finnish company specializing in the manufacture of re-refined base oils (RRBO). Tecoil operates a plant in Hamina with a production capacity of 50 kt/year of re-refined base oils, with properties comparable to the best virgin base oils. This integration is expected to accelerate the use of these oils in the manufacture of top-of-the-range lubricants to meet customers' growing demand for increasingly high-performance and circular products.

TotalEnergies has been a founding member since 2019 of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste, which brings together more than 80 members and project partners, aiming to develop and implement solutions to reduce plastic waste in the environment.

Waste

Target and performance

Target: Recycle more than 70% of the waste from sites operated by the Company's subsidiaries (excluding digestate from biogas units)

Performance: 71% of the waste produced by sites operated by the Company's subsidiaries was recycled in 2024

Waste management approach

TotalEnergies applies a waste management hierarchy across its operations, prioritizing reduction, reuse, and recycling over disposal. The Company focuses on recycling waste from production sites of subsidiaries in the Exploration & Production segment, sites producing more than 250 kt/y in the Refining & Chemicals and Marketing & Services segments, as well as gas-fired power plants in the Integrated Power segment.

Digestate valorization

The anaerobic digestion process in biogas production generates a co-product, digestate, a natural fertilizer with high agronomic value, which is used by farmers to replace synthetic fertilizers, in a virtuous circular economy scheme. With 500 kt of digestate, this makes nearly 33 kt/y of chemical fertilizers that are replaced by a natural fertilizer.

Policies related to resource use and circular economy

TotalEnergies has adopted several policies related to resource use and circular economy:

HSEQ Charter

Key content / principles:

• TotalEnergies ensures the management of its natural resource use
• Any development project or product launch is undertaken after a risk assessment over its entire life cycle

Waste Management Policy

Scope:

• Sets out minimum requirements to be met by the Company's operated sites

Key content / principles:

• Waste management is carried out in four basic stages: waste identification (technical and regulatory); waste storage (soil protection and emissions management); waste traceability, from production to disposal (e.g., transfer notes, waste manifests, statements); and waste treatment, with technical and regulatory knowledge of the relevant processes
• A Company rule requires subsidiaries to control the processing of the waste produced by all operated sites, at every stage of their operations
• Based on four principles, listed in decreasing order of priority:
  • Reducing waste at source by designing products and processes that generate as little waste as possible, as well as minimizing the quantity of waste produced by the Company's operations
  • Reusing products for a similar purpose in order to prevent them from becoming waste
  • Recycling residual waste as far as possible
  • Recovering non-recycled products wherever possible

Policy for Renewable Raw Materials (Biofuels and Biopolymers)

Scope:

Anticipated financial effects from resource use and circular economy-related impacts, risks and opportunities

Phase-in exemption applied

The Company has chosen not to disclose in this first Sustainability Report the information relating to the disclosure requirements and data points phased-in (ESRS 1 - Appendix C), the disclosure of which may be deferred, in particular the expected financial effects (ESRS 2 SBM-1 §40, b and c; ESRS 2 SBM-3 48.e, E1-9, E2-6, E3-5, E4-6 and E5-6) as well as certain information or disclosure requirements relating to ESRS S1 (S1-7, S1-8, S1-11, S1-14 and S1-15).

Compensation metrics

Pay gap

TotalEnergies discloses pay gap information under the French Professional Equality Index and in adjusted form.

French Professional Equality Index (2023-2024)

Reference period N-1/N: from September 30 N-1 to September 30 N.

Details of the 2023-2024 Index

The French index reflects five indicators: wage differentials, pay raise differentials excluding promotions, promotion rate differentials, percentage of female employees who received a pay raise in the year they returned from maternity leave, and number of employees of the under-represented sex among the ten employees who received the highest compensation.

Adjusted pay gap methodology

TotalEnergies calculates the adjusted or "identical profile" pay gap in each subsidiary, using Mercer Consulting's methodology. This adjusted pay gap takes into account the characteristics of the job held (function, segment, region, etc.) and of the individual (age, diploma, seniority, etc.), and makes it possible to isolate gaps not justified by objective criteria. A corrective action plan is then implemented based on the results.

ESRS S1-16 unadjusted gender pay gap

The document references ESRS S1-16 disclosure requirements but does not provide a single headline unadjusted gender pay gap percentage as required by the standard.

Remuneration ratio

ESRS S1-16 Remuneration ratio (2024)

The annual total remuneration ratio of the highest-paid individual (CEO) to the median employee is disclosed as follows:

Ratios pursuant to Article L. 22-10-9 of the French Commercial Code

Scope and methodology notes:

The calculation includes all elements of compensation paid during fiscal year N whether for the executive directors or employees (fixed compensation, variable component paid during fiscal year N in respect of fiscal year N-1, extraordinary or deferred compensation, incentive and profit-sharing compensation paid during fiscal year N in respect of N-1, employers' social charges and contributions) as well as the valuation of the performance shares granted during fiscal year N (excluding in-kind benefits) according to IFRS standards.

Employers' social charges and contributions are taken into account for executive directors and employees starting from 2022 in accordance with the AFEP guidelines, as updated in February 2021.

The employees included in the denominator are employees who have been present and active throughout the year in question, their compensation being taken on a full-time basis. Trainees, professional contracts, people on sabbatical or on long-term absence are not included in the denominator.

Two scopes are reported:

• TotalEnergies SE: 3,199 present employees on permanent contracts (9% of employees in France and 19% of the payroll France) as of December 31, 2024
• Enlarged scope: at least 80% of the payroll of employees in France (20,261 employees) as of December 31, 2024

Executive officers' compensation (aggregate)

In 2024, the aggregate amount paid directly or indirectly by TotalEnergies' French and foreign companies as compensation to TotalEnergies' executive officers in office as of December 31, 2024 (9 people) was €14.62 million (compared to €12.53 million in 2023).

Methodology

From 2022, the calculation of the Chairman and CEO compensation ratios takes into account a population of employees in France representing more than 80% of the total French payroll in accordance with the AFEP recommendations.

The compensation taken into account includes IFRS 2 valuation of performance shares granted during the fiscal year.

Health and safety metrics

Total Recordable Injury Rate (TRIR)

TRIR is expressed as number of recorded incidents per million hours worked.

Fatalities

The 2024 fatality resulted from work-related injury. No breakdown by employee vs contractor status is disclosed in the excerpts.

Coverage of health and safety management system

The Company's health and safety management system applies to all employees of TotalEnergies subsidiaries and employees of external contractors working on sites operated by TotalEnergies subsidiaries. The One MAESTRO reference framework is deployed across all business segments.

In 2024, 99% of employees with specific occupational risks received regular medical monitoring.

Safety targets and performance

• 2025 Target: TRIR of 0.60
• 2024 Target: TRIR of 0.62 (achieved 0.55)
• Zero fatal accidents: Target not achieved (1 fatality in 2024)
• No major industrial accidents: Achieved in 2024

The TRIR applies to both TotalEnergies employees and contractor personnel working on operated sites, with safety results monitored with the same attention for all.

Adequate wages

Benchmark used

TotalEnergies assesses direct remuneration against a living wage benchmark. The company relies on the global database provided by the Fair Wage Network, which assesses the living wage for a given country or region, based on the typical family size (number of children) and the average number of workers (between one and two per household).

A living wage is defined by TotalEnergies as an income that allows employees:

• to provide a decent life for their family,
• for standard working hours,
• to cover their essential expenses (food, water, electricity, housing, education, health, clothing, etc.),
• the ability to cope with some of life's uncertainties.

Coverage and scope

Since 2021, TotalEnergies assesses any discrepancies between direct remuneration (composed of fixed and variable compensation) and the living wage in all its subsidiaries (the so-called "périmètre de gestion" i.e. all subsidiaries controlled at more than 50%).

Coverage achievement: The result of the studies carried out show that, since the end of 2022, the Company had reached its target, as 100% of employees received direct remuneration at least equal to the living wage in the country or region in which they work.

Geographic scope: Global – applies to all TotalEnergies subsidiaries controlled at more than 50% worldwide.

Commitment

Under the Care Together by TotalEnergies program, the company commits to:

"Ensure all employees have direct remuneration at least equal to the living wage of the country or region in which they work"

This is stated as a worldwide commitment under the Social Protection pillar.

Methodology details

• Direct remuneration is composed of fixed and variable compensation
• Benchmark source: Fair Wage Network global database
• Assessment basis: Country or region-specific living wage, adjusted for typical family size and average number of workers per household (between one and two)
• Frequency: Annual assessment conducted since 2021
• Scope: Applies to all employees of subsidiaries controlled at more than 50%

Additional context

The Company's compensation policy stipulates that compensation levels must be equivalent internally for positions with the same level of responsibility in a given environment (activity, country). The policy is designed to offer competitive, fair, transparent and responsible compensation, providing levels of compensation that are higher than the minimum level observed locally, through regular benchmarks in countries where legislation guaranteeing a minimum wage is lacking.

Social dialogue structures

TotalEnergies European Works Council

The TotalEnergies European Works Council serves as a forum for providing information and regular exchanging views about the Company's strategy, its workplace, economic and financial situation, as well as on matters relating to sustainable development, environmental and social responsibility and safety. It is consulted for significant proposed organizational changes concerning at least two companies in two European countries.

The composition of the works council was renewed in September 2024 with 52 members representing 25 countries.

In 2024, 16 European Works Council meetings and site visits were held, including several outside France (in Germany, in Romania).

Employee representation in non-mandatory countries

In countries where employee representation is not required by law, the Subsidiaries strive to establish such representation. As a result, majority elected employee representatives are present in most TotalEnergies companies.

Where local laws provide few protections for freedom of organization and the right to collective bargaining, alternatives are encouraged including allowing employees to designate representatives, organizing regular meetings between those representatives and management, providing meeting rooms where employees can gather, and adjusting work schedules accordingly.

Global Deal membership

In December 2017, TotalEnergies joined the Global Deal initiative, a multi-stakeholder worldwide partnership whose goal is to encourage governments, companies, unions and other organizations to make concrete commitments to improving dialogue with employees on all levels. In 2024, TotalEnergies continued to share its good practices with Global Deal member companies.

Board representation

Two directors representing employees sit on the Board of Directors:

• One designated by the Corporation's Central Social and Economic Committee
• One designated by the TotalEnergies European Works Council (SE Committee)

One director representing employee shareholders is also elected to the Board of Directors.

Data collection scope

Social dialogue data are collected through the Worldwide Human Resources Survey (WHRS), conducted in December of year "x" and January of year "x+1". The survey covers 140 companies in 51 countries, representing 90.9% of the Company's consolidated workforce (93,516 employees) for the December 2024/January 2025 survey.

Payment practices

Standard payment terms

TotalEnergies applies a principle of transparency in its payment practices, respecting the legal terms of payment in the countries where the Company operates and the contractual due dates negotiated with direct (tier one) suppliers regardless of their categorization.

Standard payment terms apply to the general purchase terms of TotalEnergies contracts, i.e. thirty (30) days from the last day of the month in which the invoice was issued, corresponding a minimum 30-days period and a maximum 60-days period.

Average payment time

Out of 87.2% of the Company's purchases of goods and services in 2024 (i.e. €24.5 billion out of a total of €28.1 billion equivalent to $31 billion), the average payment period for invoices is 49 days (the average payment period is calculated by taking into account the date of the invoice issued and the effective date of payment).

On an analysed scope of 150 of the Company's entities in France, corresponding to €6.2 billion in purchases of goods and services, the payment of invoices in 2024 was carried out as follows:

• for French small and medium-sized enterprises - SMEs, in 51 days on average with a ratio of 88% (calculated between invoices paid within 60 days from the date of the document and the total number of invoices)
• for French intermediate-sized companies - ETIs, in 43 days on average with a ratio of 83%

Late payment prevention

Employees are regularly reminded of the need to respect supplier payment terms, particularly for SMEs and the most vulnerable, and of existing regulations, throughout the purchasing process from requisition to invoice payment.

In France, an automatic alert system aims to prevent late payments.

Legal proceedings

There are no ongoing legal proceedings reported after questioning the subsidiaries at the end of December 2024 regarding late payments.
