Investors Presentation December 2021 Dr Stephan Meeder, CEO/CFO Heike Baumbach, Head of Investor Relations
EU: European Green Deal European Parliament gave green light to first-ever EU climate law on 24 June 2021 • Interim target: Reduction of GHG emissions of at least 55% by 2030 (on 1990 levels) • Climate-neutrality by 2050 “Fit for 55” legislative package • Proposals to make the EU's climate, energy, land use, transport and taxation policies fit for reducing net greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030, compared to 1990 levels Revision of various regulations and directives planned, i.e. • Emissions Trading System (ETS) • Effort Sharing Regulation (ESR) • Revision of the Energy Tax Directive (ETD) • Amendment to the Renewable Energy Directive (RED II) December 2021 2
Renewable Ethanol As fuel • Produced from local, renewable raw materials • High-quality fuel for petrol engines • Ensures that fossil carbons remain in the ground permanently and do not continue to drive climate change • Less greenhouse gas emissions, nitrogen oxides & particulate matter emissions compared to fossil fuels • CropEnergies ethanol reduces CO2 emissions by an average of more than 70% compared to fossil fuel. December 2021 3
Ethanol >70% less GHG emissions compared to fossil fuels* • The GHG values of all elements in the value-added chain are added up • The emissions from ethanol when used in combustion engines is zero • European ethanol reduces annual GHG emissions by >10 Mt** Cultivation Transport Ethanol Ethanol CO2 Grain Grain Production Transport Liquefaction *83,8 gCO2eq/MJ **Own calculations December 2021 4
