122 LISI 2019 UNIVERSAL REGISTRATION DOCUMENT Corporate Social Responsibility 4 6.3  /  Environmental Performance Use of natural resources (water and energy) Water consumption: -12% target between 2018 and 2020 In 2019, LISI consumed 790,556 m 3 of water, i.e. a saving of 5.0% in water consumption in absolute terms in one year, and of 13.7% in four years. To link it to production, LISI monitors the ratio of consumption to added value. Thus between 2018 and 2019, this ratio declined by 10.3%, from0.949m 3 /€k (AV) to 0.851m 3 /€k (AV). Water is mainly used in the cooling of processes, surface treatment lines and sanitation purposes. Innovations in the reduction of water consumption: The LISI sites are constantly seeking new technologies to decrease their environmental impact and improve their performance. For example: ■ The LISI AUTOMOTIVE site in Grandvillars has implemented a polymer coating technology to reduce the site’s water consumption. This action as well as the reuse of the water from the water treatment plan has resulted in a roughly 6,500m 3 saving. ■ The newLISI AEROSPACE site in Villefranche‑de‑Rouergue has integrated the recovery and reuse of rainwater in its process. ■ The work done by LISI AEROSPACE in Bologne to raise awareness among staff and the various technical improvements on the heat treatment and surface treatment process have resulted in savings of around 32,000 m 3 . Energy consumption: -12% target between 2018 and 2020 The LISI Group’s energy consumption was 476,196 MWh in 2019, i.e. 4.8% less than in 2018 (absolute value). Energy consumption is closely linked to the activity but also to climatic variations. However, to take on board the impacts of the production activity, LISI monitors the ratio of consumption to added value. Thus between 2018 and 2019, this ratio improvedby 10.1%, from0.570MWh/€k (AV) to0.513MWh/€k (AV) in one year. Energy is mainly consumed at production sites which have a heat treatment process, in particular Bologne, but also at Marmande, Delle, Bar s/ Aube, Kierspe and Torrance. LISI AEROSPACE in Marmande – Participant in the “Ecological transition contract:” At end-2019, LISI AEROSPACE in Marmande signed an Ecological transition contract with the French government and the Val de Garonne region. This contract aims to “achieve ecological transition through the preservation and use of natural resources in the Val de Garonne region and the mobilization of local economic actors.” Five actions were selected to implement this contract: ■ studies on industrial waste heat recovery, ■ creation of a re-vegetation plan throughout the greater urban area, ■ implementation of a training and installation process for organic agriculture throughout the territory, ■ Garonn’air awareness-raising project, ■ project for the development and structuring of a local hydrogen network. The projects will launch in 2022.
