3. GOOD PRACTICES IN ZOOM
Digital and hybrid sessions
To avoid background noise during the meeting,
Participants’ microphone will be muted by default.
Three important features that participants can access with buttons on their screen:
Participants window to view all other attendees
Interpretation window which allows you to choose the language available (EN -FR)
Chat window to ask questions to panelists and share comments with other attendees
To ask a panelist a question:
- If physically present at the event, participants raise their hand and wait for the moderator.
- If online, in the chat window, they type the question and the name of the panelist it is directed at.
- Virtually raise their hand and wait for the moderator. When the moderator gives them the floor: turn
on the mic and camera by pressing ‘Unmute’ and ‘Start Video’. Turn off the mic when not speaking.
Time may not allow all questions to be addressed

Strategic Partnerships director, VEOLIA
Championing the ecological
transformation
Territorial Ecosystems: a driving force for the
Green Transition in Europe

37. Climate change : a global challenge that
prompts us to question even the way we
deliver public service
Founded in 1853, Veolia has been a partner of local government in managing
services on behalf of public authorities in three areas :
➔ water management across the water cycle
➔ waste management from collection to waste treatment, recovery
and recycling
➔ energy services (biogas and biomethane production, smart building
management, operation and maintenance of their heating and
cooling network, electric flexibility)
As the environment and climate emergency becomes a societal emergency,
Veolia is committed to radically change patterns of production and consumption.
Circular economy solutions that our Group implements (energy recovery,
conversion of waste into resources, treatment of wastewater) can be deployed
and adjusted to the needs of communities with various needs and characteristics.

38. The potential of water reuse projects : the example
of Vendée Eau
KEY PROJECT DATA:
• 4.5 million m3 of wastewater are treated each year by the
Les Sables d'Olonne wastewater treatment plant,
equivalent to the volume of water in one of the 13 Vendée
dams.
• 150 m3/h will be treated by the refining plant during the
experimental phase (from 2023 to 2026), i.e. a quarter of
the discharges from the urban area. Then the entire
600m3/h (from 2027), i.e. a potential additional resource
of 1.5 million m3 of drinking water over the period from
May to October during dry years.
• Technologies used in the refining plant: ultrafiltration and
low-pressure reverse osmosis (Barrel Plug and Play,
designed by Veolia, containing 200 membrane elements),
ultraviolet disinfection and chlorination.
• Overall budget for the Jourdain programme: 19.5 million
euros over 10 years.

39. Valomet plant: transforming waste treatment
residue into new resources
• Small objects such as ballpointpens and chip cards,
include a number of components that end up in
household waste. Veolia produces secondary
materials and green energy from this waste.
• Bottom ash are collectedfrom fifty European energy-
from-waste plants. An ultra-finefraction is extracted,
a concentrated of Nfe particles between 0 and 20
mm
• From 100 tons of residual waste, Valomet extracts up
to 200 kg of pure aluminium, 50 kg of pure copper
and 210 g of precious metals.
• The Valomet process recovers copper and aluminium
using 80 and 95% less energy respectively than
traditionalmineral extractionprocesses, thereby also
reducing CO2 emissions.
• By recovering non ferrous metals from bottom ash as
feedstock for smelters, the process helps to protect
natural resources

41. Our approach: ecological transformation through
exemplarity and value creation for territories
1. Veolia redistributesover 80% of its spendingslocally.
We measure our own socioeconomic footprint(287,000 indirectjobs supported and €12.6 billionGDP generated
worldwide). In France, 77% of Veolia suppliers are SME/Mid-tier companies.
2. Veolia promotes open innovation programs benefitingsocial entrepreneurs
Launched in 2014, the Pop Up programmehas two aims: strengthen Veolia’s local roots by creatingshared value
locally,and open up its innovationprocesses by collaboratingwith social entrepreneurs who share Veolia’s values.
In 2019, Veolia co-founded or agreed partnerships with 11 incubators and accelerators for social entrepreneurs in
France and around the world. We are helping over 100 social entrepreneurs.
3. Veolia is strongly committed to the development of socially responsibleand sustainablepublic procurement
In our own procurement,we assess the CSR performance of our suppliers, includingtheir CO2 emissions and the
way they integrate circularapproaches to their operations.
Since 2013, our Purchasing DepartmentGroup has also adopted an approach that promotes purchasing from the
protected workers sector (provision of signed supported employment(ESAT)/protected workshop (EA) contracts
Veolia uses the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) approach, one of the best practices for responsible purchasing, as its
compass to assess the long-term performance of different providers
