“Policies” is the first pillar of our sustainability strategy: Impact. It covers all material issues, risks and opportunities associated with governance.
Our Group is committed to two strategic axes: to put in place a solid and transparent governance system and to integrate ethical, environmental and social issues into strategy, policies and decision-making processes.
Governance at Forsee Power
“Policies” covers all matters of governance, which is the foundation of our sustainability strategy.
For Forsee Power, governance represents an institutional framework based on ethics that will ensure effective leadership and a robust system. As such, it can have a positive impact on the company’s strategy and vision for the future, help increase accountability at Board level and improve external reporting.
We have established a framework that recognises all the elements necessary for a sound approach to governance and accountability.
The Executive Committee, composed of senior management and led by the CEO, uses this framework to set and monitor responsible objectives, identify opportunities for improvement and ensure that all activities are aligned and consistent with market standards.

Policies and commitments at Forsee Power, the foundation of our governance actions
Our policies reflect our commitments at Forsee Power. Based on material issues for our Group, but also for our stakeholders, we strive to make commitments that meet these expectations and push our ambitions beyond them.
These commitments, supported by governance and conveyed within each of our sites, allow us to build a strong and responsible corporate culture towards our employees and the planet. They support our vision of developing intelligent battery systems for sustainable electromobility.
Non-financial rating, a tool to illustrate our sustainability performance
Each year, we evaluate our ESG performance with several non-financial rating agencies. These assessments have become real transparency tools for our various stakeholders: customers, suppliers, investors, etc.
They also allow us to assess our performance level and to develop our action plans for the continuous improvement of our ESG actions and commitments.

The European Green Taxonomy as an indicator of our contribution to a sustainable economic activity
In order to promote transparency and a long-term vision in economic activities and to direct capital flows towards sustainable investments, the European Union has created a common system for classifying business activities in order to identify those economic activities considered to be sustainable: the European taxonomy.
Within this framework, Forsee Power has carried out an analysis of the eligibility of its activities with regard to the two objectives relating to the climate component of the taxonomy: mitigation and adaptation to climate change.
