Corporations, investors and governments today are faced with a choice: to compete aggressively for finite resources, or to advance towards a low carbon economy that enables sustainable, profitable growth, whilst reducing reliance on increasingly scarce materials.

Last year, global energy-related carbon dioxide emissions reached a record high. The International Energy Agency’s estimates made for bleak reading but compounded the necessity to take bold and decisive action if we are to have any chance of limiting temperature increase to the 2°C level agreed by world leaders to protect against catastrophic climate change.

What’s more, rising energy demands are competing for a limited supply of fossil fuels. The competition for increasingly scarce natural resources is putting pressure on commodity prices and having a growing impact both socially and economically. It is clear that today, more than ever, we must build momentum to decouple economic growth from emissions.

Managing carbon emissions and protecting business from climate change impacts are fundamental to achieving sustainable and strong shareholder returns. Earlier this year, the investment consultancy Mercer released a report concluding that the best way for institutional investors to manage portfolio risk associated with climate change may be to shift 40% of their portfolios into climate-sensitive assets with an emphasis on those that can adapt to a low carbon environment.

An important part of investors’ strategy should be to engage with the companies in which they invest to encourage performance improvement. Carbon Action is a new initiative launched by CDP this year. It is driven by a leading group of investors to encourage their portfolio companies to reduce emissions by investing in emissions’ reduction activities with a satisfactory payback period. Carbon Action reflects a growing recognition that there is a huge range of carbon reduction activities that companies can undertake and which have a very clear business case. It is therefore in the interests of all investors, and not just the more active owners of investments, to ensure these actions are taken.

As the management of carbon continues to move into companies’ core business strategies and mainstream investment thinking, demand for primary corporate climate change information grows around the world. As well as working on behalf of 551 institutional investors to gather relevant information from large corporations around the world, CDP is also working with global businesses and governments to strengthen the resilience and sustainability of their supply chains through the CDP Supply Chain program. CDP Cities has been launched to help the world’s major cities reduce climate change risk and bolster economic growth, whilst CDP Water Disclosure is now in its second year of working with major global companies to improve water management. A key part of CDP’s strategy is to ensure the effective use of data collected. To assist with this companies are able to obtain tools that help them to measure, report and manage carbon more effectively through CDP Reporter Services.

It is through partnerships that CDP can achieve the greatest impact. In Italy we are delighted to be working with our local partners: Accenture SpA, Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena and Kyoto Club. In addition, we highly value the continued support of our Global Advisor, PwC, as well as that of Accenture, Microsoft, SAP and Bloomberg. These and our other partners around the world are integral to the acceleration of CDP’s mission.

Whilst we wait patiently for much needed global regulation, business must continue to forge ahead, innovate and seek out opportunities by doing more with less. The decisions that perpetuate a legitimate, low carbon and high growth economy will bring considerable value to those who have the foresight to make them. The information contained in this report and the companies’ responses assist in illuminating that path.

In the last 3 years we at Accenture have witnessed, in our day to day work with our clients, an increasing commitment from Italian companies towards sustainability and carbon management.

This increased commitment is strongly represented in the results of this year’s Italy CDP Investor program: the number of responding companies rose from 18 in 2009 to 35 in 2011. Numbers talk: 82% of responding companies declared that they have integrated climate change in their business strategy. 91% reported having emissions’ reduction initiatives in place. 67% set a carbon reduction target. 88% declared they have assigned responsibility for carbon management at least to senior management level. And, most importantly, 42% declared that they have reduced their emissions.

These figures tell a story of very significant commitment and improvement. Nevertheless, when compared to European 300 and Global 500 companies’ results, the evidence is that Italian companies are somewhat lagging behind and show some room for improvement.

We are also committed to disclosure and improvement of our carbon performance. To that extent we have been disclosing our climate change commitment in the most recent five years through the CDP Investor program and in the last three years also through the CDP Supply Chain program. We share with our clients a commitment to sustainability and we are glad to be in partnership with leading global organizations tackling the integration of sustainability in business practices, among them: United Nations Global Compact, the World Business Council for Sustainable Development, the World Economic Forum and, of course, CDP.

Accenture’s global partnership with CDP dates back to 2009 when, in cooperation with SAP and Microsoft, we supported the implementation of a new Global Climate Change Data and Reporting Platform to collect, manage and disseminate climate change data. In 2010 Accenture partnered with the CDP on the preparation of a White Paper highlighting the benefits of disclosing cities’ climate change related information.

In addition to this global partnership, we are also proud to be a strategic partner in Italy for the first time this year. Accenture is pleased to have supported the CDP in preparing the CDP Investor Report 2011 for Italy and, in particular, to have contributed to increasing the number of respondent companies from 21 in 2010 to 35. This report is the first product of a collaboration that we hope will intensify in the coming years.

Executive Summary

CDP overview

CDP is an independent not-for-profit organization that has been working, since 2000, to collect companies’ data on climate change strategy, GHG emissions’ disclosure and water use. The CDP was founded to put information on companies’ climate change strategies and GHG emissions management at the heart of financial and policy decision-making. The authority behind CDP’s information request lies in its list of investor signatories which has grown from 35 investors with assets of US$4.5 trillion under management in 2003 to 551 in 2011 with assets of US$71 trillion under management.

CDP conveys the information to its 551 investor signatories, as well as distributing it throughout the global market place, both to increase transparency around climate-related investment risk and commercial opportunity and to drive investment towards a low carbon economy. In order to better assess and compare companies’ responses, CDP developed a methodology that scores companies on the quality of their disclosure and performance on actions they take to mitigate climate change. The highest scoring companies per sample are recognized in two indexes: the Carbon Disclosure Leadership Index (CDLI) and the Carbon Performance Leadership Index (CPLI). In 2011 more than 3,000 companies have been scored according to the CDP methodology, making CDP the largest existing database for corporate climate data.

CDP 2011 in Italy

This report will especially focus on carbon measurement and reporting - the crucial first steps towards carbon management and the backbone to any robust and credible carbon strategy - and emission reduction initiatives.

The Italian companies invited to respond to CDP 2011 are the 100 largest companies, by market capitalization, on the Italian stock exchange. The first country specific report was published in 2008 with responses from 18 companies, managing more than 220 MtCO2e. The current report represents the management of almost 258 MtCO2e (Scope 1 emissions) from 35 companies.

Companies were scored according to the CDP methodology explained in the CDP 2011 Reporting Guidance and available to all through the CDP website. Kyoto Club is the scorer for the Italy 100 sample.

Overview of results

The number of Italian companies responding to CDP has increased significantly, from 21 in 2010 to 35 in 2011. The increased number of respondents of course adds value to the overall results, making the sample more representative. Nevertheless the response rate (35%) has not increased. The highest response rate in the Italy 100 sample comes from the Utility sector followed by the Energy, Materials and Telecommunications sectors.

Management

Most companies declare that climate change has been integrated into the fundamental pillars of management: overall strategy, risk management and employees’ reward. Responsibility for climate change management is assigned, in almost all responding companies (29), at least to senior management level, proving that basic sustainability practices such as carbon reporting are becoming integrated into the way business is done, both strategically and operationally. One of the questions in the CDP 2011 asks whether climate change is integrated in business strategy: 82% (27) of companies responding answered in the affirmative.

Calculation and reporting of carbon emissions have become common practice, but only few companies provide data on non CO2 GHG emissions. Third party verification/assurance has also become common: 24 companies have some verification on Scope 1 emissions.

Companies in the Italy 100 sample report almost 258 MtCO2e of Scope 1 emissions and almost 11 MtCO2e of Scope 2 emissions. Both values are in line with last year (249 MtCO2e for Scope 1 and 9.5 MtCO2e for Scope 2). Scope 3 emissions count for about 300 MtCO2e, 10% less than last year.

As far as performance is concerned, responding companies are almost equally divided between those which succeeded in decreasing their emissions and those whose emissions increased in 2011. When significant decreases have been reported these are in most cases the result of specific reduction initiatives, while increases are due to changes in both company reporting and system boundaries. 91% (30) of responding companies reported having emissions’ reduction initiatives in place. This is higher than the proportion of companies with an emissions reduction target (67%): it seems that the importance of reducing emissions is somehow translated into actions before becoming a formal commitment. 186 emissions’ reduction initiatives (mainly related to energy efficiency, transportation and low carbon energy) have been reported.

Risks and Opportunities

79% (26) of companies consider climate change is a source of opportunities related to regulation, changes in physical parameters and other possible climate-related developments. Regulation is the most important driver for both risks and opportunities. Companies identify more than 250 different risk events related to climate change, with 10 companies – from 5 different sectors – foreseeing

11

the inability to do business at all, as one of them. Of the 178 opportunities identified, the increase in demand for existing products, as well as the creation of new products/ business services, are the two most significant.

Emissions

Only four companies have not published any information on their GHG emissions performance. The norm for the vast majority of responding companies is to disclose their GHG emissions performance in several company documents (such as annual report, regulatory filings and voluntary communications).

A final appraisal of companies’ responses highlights the trend that Italian companies are shifting from the traditional paradigm of considering climate change only as a compliance and risk driven issue, to a new paradigm that regards climate change also as an accelerator of business performance and value creation. Commitment to defining and implementing emissions’ reduction initiatives is very high, as demonstrated by the data. Nevertheless only half of the companies adopt traditional financial analysis and metrics to back up these initiatives and assess their overall financial impact: another sign that a course towards carbon management integration has been set, but there is still work to be done.

CDLI and CPLI overview of results

Ten companies (Ansaldo STS, Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena, Enel, Eni, Fiat, Fiat Industrials, Finmeccanica, Hera, Terna and UBI Banca) are included in the CDLI for the Italy 100 and two companies (Enel and Fiat) have made CPLI for the Italy 100.

Compared to last year, the average disclosure score for companies in the CDLI has increased (84 in 2011 vs. 80 in 2010), while the average disclosure score among all responding companies is stable (63 both in 2010 and in 2011).

Integrating Sustainability into Business As Usual

82% (27) of Italian companies responding to the CDP 2011 information request reported that they have integrated climate change into core business strategy

Right in the middle of an economic recession, with the European economy struggling to solve the sovereign debt crisis, pressure on organizations to drive corporate action on sustainability issues has not weakened at all. Policy makers, institutional investors and customers are scrutinizing firms’ corporate behavior more carefully than ever, demanding greater accountability and performance from business in providing positive contributions to the economy, society and the environment. Corporations that wish to future proof their business must establish capacity to report coherently to stakeholders on the implications of sustainability for their economic and financial performance. The integration of sustainability into corporate strategy is now a key issue on many CEOs’ agenda.

Results from Accenture 2010 UN Global Compact CEOs Study had already highlighted how the economic downturn has raised the importance of sustainability as a leadership issue for top Italian managers (91% of Italian CEOs interviewed agree on that). 72% stated that the crisis had already led Italian companies to increase alignment of core business strategies with sustainability issues. One of the most eye-catching pieces of evidence from the study was that 100% of CEOs state that sustainability issues should be fully embedded into a company’s strategy and operations. More interestingly still, the gap between statements of intent and actual practice was remarkably low: 82% of respondents, in fact, confirmed that these issues were in reality fully

embedded into the strategy and operations of their companies. It is worth noting that 82% (27) Italian companies responding to the CDP information request in 2011 report that they have integrated climate change into their core business strategy and that they have increased the level of involvement and accountability of senior management in managing climate change related issues. A survey on sustainability performance management, conducted this year by Accenture among leading Italian companies to assess the level of integration of sustainability into business as usual, confirms that management of sustainability has advanced to a significant degree of integration with corporate strategy and strategic direction. That survey also highlighted that well-functioning measurement and surrounding processes have been established, although not yet integrated, into traditional enterprise performance management processes and systems. Emission Reduction Targets and Initiatives

Despite an increase in the absolute number of companies with emissions’ reduction targets, from 16 to 22 in 2011, the percentage of responding companies with emissions’ reduction targets has decreased: 67% (22) of respondents disclose absolute or intensity emission reduction targets, a decrease from 76% of respondents in 2010

67% (22) of responding companies have set an emission reduction target for the current fiscal year, compared to 76% (16) in 2010: this translates to a decrease of 9% from last year. Among those which report reduction targets, 90% of companies have set a target within the next five years. Only A2A, Edison and Unicredit have disclosed reduction targets addressing the next ten years to 2020.

“In Pukrang, Thailand, a waste heat recovery (WHR) system will be built into the current plant structure. Heat recovered from the kiln will be used to generate electricity fed to the grid. An installed capacity of 18MW is foreseen corresponding to a 70 ktonCO2 annual reduction in emissions.”Italcementi

“Even in a context such as the current one, we cannot forget that we must develop our business by acting responsibly, as we know that sustainability is the key to our future and the future of our children. Environmental protection is for us not only a commitment but also a significant business opportunity.”Unicredit Group

Absolute targets are marginally more common than intensity targets.

100% (22) of companies reporting reduction targets for the current fiscal year have defined more than one numeric emission reduction target. All companies, in fact, have several targets applying to different business units or with different time horizons.

When considering the underlying data, absolute targets are marginally more common than intensity targets. 45% of targets (set by 10 companies) include absolute emissions’ reductions, while 32% (set by 7 companies) are intensity targets (e.g. relating to production volumes, employees or square metres). The remaining 23% relate to 5 companies that set both absolute and intensity targets.

A total of 186 emissions’ reduction initiatives are reported by 91% (30) of companies responding in 2011.

The number of companies reporting emission reduction initiatives and plans this year rose by 5% to 91%, up from 86% in 2010 and from 50% in 2009. Only two companies did not provide any information on their emissions’ reduction initiatives. Energy efficiency (26%), low carbon energy (16%)

and transport (12%) are the most commonly identified activity types. A total of 186 emissions’ reduction activities were reported in the CDP 2011 information request. This is an average of six (one more compared with results from the Global 500) emissions’ reduction activities per company. Finmeccanica reported the largest number of activities with 46, while A2A and Assicurazioni Generali each reported 17 and Italcementi 14.

It is worth noting that behavioral change, which is the third most popular type of activity being carried out by the Global 500, currently accounts for only 5% of the initiatives in place among Italian respondents. It will be interesting to observe how this figure changes over the coming years, since this is an area that is generally regarded as one with significant potential for reduction and short payback periods.

Emission reduction plans only partially backed by financial information.

70% (23) of companies have disclosed information regarding the estimated payback period which means that 51% (95) of reported reduction initiatives are backed by some form of financial considerations. When looking at

information on monetary savings from emissions’ reduction initiatives and on investments required to reach the initiatives’ targets, this figure on financial back-up goes down further to 36% and 42% respectively. This is likely to be due to some degree of difficulty for companies in estimating benefits (i.e. monetary savings) related to some types of actions. This in turn might reflect the lack of a structured framework for evaluating financial impacts of emissions’ reduction initiatives.

“In Germany the Energy Ma-nagement project was imple-mented from 2008 to 2010. All major properties of the Group were assessed to determine their energy efficiency and energy savings potential. Several measures are being implemented at the sites of individual Group companies, after a selection process based on ROI criteria”.Assicurazioni Generali

“Following the positive out-come of the study carried out on the heat cycle of the Silla 2 Waste to Energy plant, which identified the possibility of increasing the maximum global cogeneration efficiency of the plant to 87% from 58% currently, the executive plan-ning and realization of the work to be performed on the plant were begun. The first stage - planned in August-September 2011 - will enable maximum thermal power of 120 MW to be sent to A2A’s district hea-ting network, with unchanged incoming waste, compared to the current 68 MW.”A2A

“Since 2009, Eni has been integrating its financial reporting with a document dedicated to the analysis and reporting of sustainability performance from the previous three years. Sustainability Performance 2010 provides an overall view of Eni’s ESG data and KPIs at group and business sector level for the years 2008-2010, according to the GRI G 3.0 guidelines, and outlines results from 2010 and objectives set for the period 2011-2014, with a special focus on climate change.

The area of con-solidation is the same as that for financial reporting, with the exception of certain data clearly specified in the document.”Eni

47% (45) of emissions’ reduction activities reported by respondents have a payback period of three years or less and 53% (50) of initiatives have paybacks of over three years.

To a certain extent this evidence confirms that in many cases return on sustainability and climate change initiatives needs to be evaluated by looking at longer term planning horizons. On the other hand, companies’ willingness to invest in activities with a medium to long term payback period is evidence that they regard energy and emissions’ reduction as important strategic priorities.

Mainstreaming Climate Change Reporting

Carbon reporting is carving out its place in mainstream reporting

The publishing of information about climate change and GHG emissions performance in places other than the CDP response has seen a two percentage point decrease from 90% in 2010 to 88% in 2011. In absolute numbers 4 companies have not published any information on their carbon performance in mainstream annual filings or other voluntary

communications. It seems that Italian companies are starting to move carbon and sustainability reporting into mainstream reporting. Many companies publish carbon-related information in more than one report. Overall, 21companies have published information about their response to climate change and GHG emissions performance in financial reports. Voluntary communication is still slightly predominant (23 companies), but it seems that companies are acknowledging the value of placing carbon reporting in annual reports as a credible, transparent and comparable way to communicate and assess business performance.

I. Analysis of responses

In 2011 more than 4,800 companies worldwide, from all business sectors, were invited to respond to the Investor CDP 2011 questionnaire. Of these, more than 2,000 companies responded.

In 2011 the sample with the highest response rate is Europe 300 with a stunning 91%, followed by South Africa 100 with 83% and Global 500 with 81%. Looking at the samples with the least respondents, the situation is the same as last year, with Russia 50 (8%) and China 100 (11%) with the lowest percentages.Low response rates can be interpreted as a sign of lack of commitment to accountancy and disclosure of environmental and climate change-related data in countries where these themes have been, so far, of marginal interest.

The Investor CDP questionnaire was sent to the 100 largest Italian companies per market capitalization in 2011, compared to 60 companies in 2010. In 2011 there has been a net increase of 66% in terms of companies invited to disclose. The number of respondents grew, from 21 in 2010 to 35 in 2011, resulting in a response rate of 35%. This percentage shows there is still much room for improvement in encouraging Italian firms to disclose their carbon data.

Looking at response rates by sector, it is noticeable that the highest percentage of responders (78%) are in Utilities, followed by Energy, Materials and Telecommuni-cation Services sectors (50%).

The lowest response rates are in the Health Care, Information Technology and Consumer Staples sectors, all with no Italian companies responding to CDP in 2011.

The Financials, Consumer Discretionary and Utilities sectors combined provide more than 70% of total respondents. In total 12 new companies responded in 2011. Only one of those that respon-ded last year didn’t respond in 2011.

II. 2011 Carbon leaders

Introduction to the Carbon Disclosure Leadership Index (CDLI) and the Carbon Performance Leadership Index (CPLI)

Each year, company responses are reviewed, analyzed and scored for the quality of disclosure and performance on actions taken to mitigate climate change. This results in a disclosure score and, where sufficient disclosure exists, a performance score.

Disclosure scores • Disclosure scores are anassessment of the quality and completeness of a company’s response; they are not a measure of a company’s performance in relation to climate change management

• Scores are plotted over a 100-point normalized scale

• Companies are assessed based on their level of disclosure of carbon emissions measurement techniques and subsequent public disclosure

• Companies with the highest disclosure scores are listed in the CDLI

Performance bands • Where a company’s disclosure score is 50 or more, its performance in contributing to climate change mitigation, adaptation and transparency is assessed and ranked in a performance band

• In 2011 there are six performance bands (there were four bands in 2010)

• Companies with the highest performance bands that meet additional CPLI criteria are listed in the CPLI

Analysis of the CDLI and CPLI provides insights into the characteristics and common trends among the leading companies on carbon disclosure, and highlights good practices in reporting, governance, risk management, emissions reductions and other areas. Interrelations between the CDLI and CPLI companies are analyzed to determine if those companies with better data use it within the business to drive value adding activities.

“ Fiat is one of the automotive groups most strongly committed to reducing the environmental impacts of transportation: between 2000 and 2010, average CO2 emissions for vehicles sold by Fiat Group Automobiles (FGA) in Europe fell 20%.” Fiat

The 2011 Carbon Disclosure Leadership Index (CDLI)

Generally, companies scoring within a particular range suggest levels of commitment to, and experience of, carbon disclosure. The indicative description of each level is provided below for guidance only; investors should read individual company responses to understand the context for each business.

Low (<50)

Limited or restricted ability to measure and disclose climate related risks, opportunities and overall carbon emissions

Midrange (50-70) Increased understanding and measurement of company-specific risks and opportunities related to climate change

High (>70) Senior management understand the business issues related to climate change and are building climate related risks and opportunities into core business

The journey to leadership

Figure 9: Carbon disclosure score

Managing for value Strategic advantage

How is the disclosure score determined?

In determining the disclosure score for each company, we assess the following:

• The level of understanding and disclosure of company-specific exposure to climate-related risks and opportunities

• The level of strategic focus and commitment to understanding the business issues related to climate change, emanating from the top of the organization

• The extent to which a company has measured its carbon emissions

• The extent of the internal data management practices for understanding GHG emissions, including energy use

• The frequency and relevance of disclosure to key corporate stakeholders

• Whether the company uses third party for external verification of emissions data to promote greater confidence and usage of the data

Eligibility for the CDLI

In order to be included in the CDLI companies must:

• Respond using the Online Reporting System (ORS) prior to the deadline

• Provide a public response

• Score within the top 10% of the reporting population: a total of 10 companies are included in the 2011 Italy 100 CDLI

More information on the CDLI can be found in the information request, supporting methodology and guidance documents at www.cdproject.net

What does a CDP carbon disclosure score represent?

Disclosure score (Max. 100)

19

Companies are scored according to the CDP scoring methodology explained in the CDP 2011 Reporting Guidance and published on the CDP website. Nine of the largest 100 Italian companies fall within the Global 500, the world’s 500 largest publicly listed companies in the FTSE Global Equity Index Series. These companies were scored by PwC’s international network. The scoring of the remaining 24 Italian companies was performed by Kyoto Club.

The results of the carbon disclosure score show that a significant number of companies (13) in the Italy 100 sample received a high score, an increase on last year’s results when only 9 companies scored high on disclosure.

Table 2 shows the list of companies whose carbon disclosure score is high. This year’s CDLI includes the top scoring 10% of the Italy 100 sample: ten in total.

Results show that:

• The top 10% disclosure scores are distributed among 10 companies in 5 different sectors (Consumer Discretionary, Energy, Financials, Industrials, Utilities), confirming that efforts to improve carbon disclosure are being pursued across sectors

• The highest score of this year is 93 (Fiat), ten points higher than last year’s best performer (Eni), a very significant result also considering that scoring methodology has become more strict

• Two companies who made the CDLI in 2011 have shown an impressive improvement compared to last year: Enel improved from 37 in 2010 to 89 in 2011; UBI Banca improved from 43 in 2010 to 84 in 2011

• Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena, Eni, Fiat and Terna are in the CDLI for the second consecutive year

• Ansaldo STS, disclosing for the first time, reached the CDLI with a 79 carbon disclosure score

• Both Industrials and Utilities have three companies in the CDLI

• The average score in the Italian CDLI is 84, significantly higher than the average score (63) of the entire Italian sample. Compared to last year these numbers show an improvement in the score of CDLI companies (the average in 2010 was 80) and a stable value of the average overall score (63). This is a result of the inclusion of new respondents whose commitment to carbon disclosure is less mature and who have less experience in reporting

• The average Italian CDLI score (84) is much lower than the average score in the Global 500 CDLI (94): significant improvements can still be made, even by Italian leaders

• Two Italian companies, Enel and Fiat, were also included in the Global 500 CPLI.

The 2011 Carbon Performance Leadership Index (CPLI)

This year, for the second time, all companies with a sufficiently high disclosure score received a performance band; the qualifying threshold to receive a performance band was a disclosure score of 50. Disclosure scores of less than 50 do not necessarily indicate poor performance; rather, they indicate insufficient information to evaluate performance. However, it can be assumed that companies which do not disclose are inactive on climate change.

Performance is grouped into six bands: A, A-, B, C, D and E (see Figure).

The Carbon Performance Leadership Index (CPLI) includes the companies in the highest performance band (A) and provides a valuable perspective on the range and quality of activities being performed by the Italy 100 in response to climate change.

Eligibility for the CPLI (Band A) • Attain a disclosure score of 50 or

above

• Attain a performance score greater than 70

• Score maximum performance points on question 13.1a (absolute emissions performance); at least a 2.65%1

reduction in carbon emissions must have been achieved as a result of emissions reduction activities over the last year

• Disclose gross global Scope 1 and Scope 2 figures

• Score maximum performance

points for verification of Scope 1 and Scope 2

Notes:

• Band A- (A minus) companies are not in the CPLI. They are strong performers, with a performance score high enough to warrant inclusion in the CPLI but they do not meet all other CPLI requirements

• CDP reserves the right to exclude a company from the CPLI if there is anything in its response that calls into question its suitability for inclusion

Performance scoring is an instructive exercise for all stakeholders. The score provides an indication of the extent to which companies are addressing the potential opportunities and risks presented by climate change. CDP recognizes that this is a process that will evolve over time. It is important for investors to keep in mind that the carbon performance band is not:

• A measure of how low carbon a company is

• An assessment of the extent to which a company’s actions have reduced carbon intensity relative to other companies in its sector

• An assessment of how material a company’s actions are relative to the business; the score simply recognizes evidence of action

It is possible to review individual company disclosures in addition to performance rankings in order to gain the most comprehensive understanding of company performance. A listing of companies and their bands is included in Appendix I. Companies that did not qualify for a performance band appear in Appendix I with a dash (-) in the performance band column.

More information can be found in the information request, supporting methodology and guidance documents, as well as within individual company responses at www.cdproject.net.

1. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has set a target of 80% reduction in emissions by 2050, based on 1990 levels. This equates to a 2.65% annual reduction.

21

Focusing on scoring from a sectoral point of view, it is apparent that some sectors are characterized by a significant difference between the lowest and highest disclosure score: Consumer Discretionary and Financials are the sectors with a broad range in the depth and completeness of disclosure. The sector with the highest average is Industrials (75).

Scoring the carbon performance of respondents from the Italy 100 results in two companies achieving performance band A and, therefore, making it into the Carbon Performance Leadership Index (CPLI).

This year band A- was introduced in the performance scoring. Band A- is for companies that are strong performers, with a performance high enough to be included in the CPLI, but which did not meet one or more criteria introduced this year by the CDP and which therefore were not included in the CPLI. In the CDP Italy 100 sample no company achieved the A- performance band. The two companies included in the CPLI in 2011 are Fiat and Enel. Last year, CDP Italy 60 had only one company - Eni- in the CPLI.

Some highlights can be picked out from the performance scoring:

• Italian companies have a CPLI inclusion rate (6.1% of respondents) in line with the Global 500 (5.8%)

• Fiat and Enel are included in the Global 500 CPLI in 2011; Enel is - in the Global 500 - the only company representing the Utility sector

• The three lower bands (C, D and E) have been achieved by 70% of responding companies, a percentage much higher than the Global 500, whose three lower performance bands account for only 39% of its companies.

Table 3 shows the key trends for Europe 300, Global 500 and Italy 100: strategy and governance are the areas characterized by significantly lower values (Italy 100 vs. average). It is also worth highlighting the difference (-8%) on emissions reduction target and the lower Italian percentage (-4%) of companies whose absolute Scope 1 & 2 emissions decreased during last year.

Carbon Disclosure Project 2011 – Italy 100 Report

III. Results

This section of the report focuses on the company responses to the questionnaire. The 2011 questionnaire is made up of three main sections:

• Management (including governance, strategy, targets, initiatives and communications);

• Risks and opportunities (including physical, regulatory and other risks and opportunities related to climate change);

• Emissions (including reporting methodology, emissions data and performance and emissions’ trading)

The CDP 2011 questionnaire has changed compared to last year. It now includes questions, among others, on the payback period of emissions’ reduction initiatives, as well as the expected magnitude of impact on company business of risks and opportunities related to climate change.

As hereafter presented, many aspects of carbon management are included in the request for information. The data provided by companies in their responses helps painting a very interesting picture of how climate change is being addressed in all its aspects by companies.

Management

Regulatory uncertainty, over future developments in international agreements on emissions’ reduction, is still a restraint on companies’ long term decision making. It has to be said, however, that with or without agreement on an international framework over the next year or so, the likelihood is high that policymakers in most developed economies — and even in some developing countries — will adopt national GHG emissions targets and implement them through policies and regulations. This helps to explain why, despite the uncertainty, companies’ initiatives, investments and reporting standards have gone far

beyond mandatory requirements.The first step to emissions’ management is governance design and definition of responsibilities for issues related to climate change. 29 companies out of 332 have assigned the highest level of responsibility for climate change at least senior management level. This is in line with last year. Whilst senior management is identified as ultimately responsible for climate change, they are in only a few companies also entitled to benefit from incentives for the attainment of GHG targets. These incentives, set by 48% (16) responding companies, are mainly for energy and sustainability managers and the management group. In most of these cases (93%) incentives are set as monetary rewards. This figure is very important, as setting incentives around climate change targets is a very strong sign from a company to its employees and can act as a strong push to take action. The number of companies that set incentives increased from 12 in 2010 to 16 in 2011; yet the percentage has decreased significantly (57% in 2010 vs. 48% in 2011). Integration of climate change in companies’ processes is a common practice emerging from CDP 2011 data: 61% of respondents define their climatechange risk management process as integrated into multi-disciplinary

company-wide risk assessment. An even higher percentage (82%) declare climate change is integrated in their business strategy. 67% (22) of responding companies, exactly the same percentage as last year, engage with policy makers on possible responses to climate change.

A further activity that indicates companies’ engagement with climate change is their identification of emissions’ reduction targets. 67% (22) responding companies have set an emission reduction target for the fiscal year 2010, compared to 76% (16) companies in the previous year: an increase in absolute numbers but a decrease of 9%. This decrease in target setting practice is most likely to be due to the increase in the number of respondents to this year’s request for information rather than to a lower commitment to accelerating actions to reduce emissions.

100% of companies reporting reduction target for the current fiscal year have defined more than one numeric emission reduction target.

All companies, in fact, have several targets applying to different business units or with different time horizons.

When considering the underlying data, absolute targets are marginally more common than intensity targets. 45% (10) of the companies in fact report absolute emissions reduction targets, while 32% (7) report intensity targets (e.g. relative to production volumes, employees or square metres). 5 companies (23%), meanwhile, have defined both absolute and intensity targets.

Targets are most commonly set for the total of Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. Targets set by companies are hardly comparable because of different time frames (base year to target year) and perimeter targets. 90% (20) of companies with emissions’ reduction targets set their timeframes over the next five years. Only A2A, Edison and Unicredit have disclosed reduction targets addressing the next ten years to 2020. Both A2A and Edison are driven by regulatory visibility, which allows companies to include emission reduction targets in their strategic plans.

By integrating sustainability in their organization and processes, companies generally identify opportunities to profit from the creation of new sustainable products and services.

In 2010, 15 respondents (71%) claimed that they had goods or services that were designed specifically to help their customers or end consumers reduce their own carbon emissions. This year’s figure is a decrease of 10% compared to 2010. However there was an increase to 22 (61%) in the absolute number of companies reporting development or promotion of goods or services directly enabling customers to avoid or reduce GHG emissions.

Companies from the Utilities, Industrial and Financial sectors are more actively engaged than those in other sectors in developing or promoting such products and services to their customers or end users.

The number of companies reporting emission reduction initiatives and plans this year rose by 5% to 91% (31 companies) compared to 86% in 2010 and 50% in 2009. Only two companies did not provide any information on their emissions reduction initiatives.

This figure is higher than that of companies (22) with an emissions’ reduction target (67%): it seems that the importance of reducing emissions is translated into action before becoming a formal commitment. A total of 186 emission reduction initiatives have been reported. 101 (54%) of these initiatives fall within the areas of energy efficiency (49 or 26%), low carbon energy (30 or 16%) and transportation (22 or 12%). It is worth noting that behavioral change (which is the third most popular type of activity being carried out by the respondents in the Global 500), despite short payback periods, currently accounts for only 5% of the initiatives in place. It will be interesting to observe how this figure changes over the coming years, since this is an area that is generally regarded as one with potential for significant reduction. Surprisingly, no initiatives on new product design have been included in this year’s responses.

70% (23) of the companies have disclosed information on their estimated payback period, which indicates that 95 (51%) of the reported reduction initiatives are backed by financial considerations. Information on monetary savings from emissions’ reduction initiatives and on investments required to reach the initiatives’ targets are provided by 36% (12) and 42% (14) of responding companies respectively. This is probably due to some difficulty for companies in estimating benefits (i.e. monetary savings) related to certain types of actions. This in turn might reflect the lack of a structured framework for evaluating financial impacts of emissions’ reduction initiatives. Total reported annual monetary savings amount to € 29 millions.

Approximately 53% of those initiatives where information on payback period was disclosed have a payback period longer than 3 years. Evidence confirms that, in many cases, the return on sustainability and climate change initiatives needs to be evaluated by looking at longer term planning horizons. On the other hand this willingness to invest in activities with a medium to long term payback period is evidence that companies regard energy and emissions’ reduction as important strategic priorities.

Low carbon energy, energy efficiency and process emissions’ reduction initiatives make up the highest proportion of initiatives with payback periods of over three years. 100% of behavioral change activities have a payback period of less than one year, suggesting that the popularity of these activities may increase in the next years.

Companies reported €2.26 billion of investment in emission reduction initiatives, in particular for low carbon energy, process emissions’ reductions and energy efficiency projects. Eni and Italcementi account for 49% and 48%, respectively, of total reported investments. This figure is slightly higher than the 2010 figure of approximately €1.98 billion.

Only 25% (8) of responding companies state that investments in emission reduction initiatives are mainly driven by compliance with regulatory requirements/standards. Another significant share (25%) is represented by specific budget for energy efficiency initiatives.

Publishing of information about climate change and GHG emissions performance in communications other than the CDP response, has seen a 2 percentage point decrease, but an increase in absolute numbers from 21 (90%) in 2010 to 29 (88%) in 2011. Four companies (12%) report not having published any information on their carbon performance.

It seems that Italian companies are starting to move climate change and sustainability reporting into mainstream reporting. 45% of responding companies, in fact, have published information about their response to climate change and GHG emissions performance in financial reports.

Risks and Opportunities

The numbers clearly indicate the importance of these issues for the companies which responded: more than 250 risks and almost 180 opportunities were identified.

76% (25) of responding companies foresee some climate change risk as having the potential to generate a substantive change in business operations, company revenues or expenditure. The number of companies that consider climate change a risk continues to grow: from 67% in 2009 to 76% in 2011.

Most of the risks identified relate to regulation (especially linked to fuel/energy taxes and international agreements), followed by risks from changes in physical climate parameters and other climate related developments. Overall only 4% of companies do not consider regulation a risk.

Regulation is the first source of both risks and opportunities.A comparison between the responses of Italian companies and those of companies in the CDP Europe 300, highlights a significant difference in perception of both risks and opportunities, with a greater difference relating to opportunities (9%).

Intesa San PaoloRisks can affect the bank’s core financial activity. Specifically, they can have an impact on our lending portfolio, as well as affecting our business in investment banking and asset management. Assessment of client-related climate risk forms part of our risk assessment procedures. In particular, we include environmental risks as qualitative issues in rating models for both small and larger businesses and for project finance. They are also embedded in the guidelines relationship managers use. In the area of project finance, we apply the Equator Principles which make it possible for us to identify and assess environmental and social risks associated with projects we finance. Our engagement in environment and climate-related working groups and initiatives (such as UNEP FI) allows us to participate in a dialogue with peers and partners.

When analyzing risk timeframes, a significant quota of identified risks is expected to take effect within the next five years (54%). A significant percentage (30%) of this is considered to be current.

Many companies identify risks, but also very significant opportunities. 27 (82%) of the 33 responding companies think that climate change can represent an opportunity for their business.

Analysis of responses on expected timeframes shows that opportunities are seen in most cases (44%) as being current or as coming into effect within the next five years.

Analysis of the possible impacts and likelihood of risks and opportunities highlights a similar trend, with most rated as likely (44% of risks and 43% of opportunities) and with high or medium high impact (35% of risks and 34% of opportunities).

Ansaldo STSMaking decisions on investment in new technologies, design of operations and purchasing equipment are all extremely difficult amid regulatory uncertainty. Our ability to meet future requirements partially depends on decisions we make now for the medium and long term. The trick is to make high-impact choices that are suitable for a relatively wide range of regulatory scenarios. Making the wrong decisions may affect our ability to meet regulatory requirements, with financial and reputational implications.

Emissions

Emissions disclosed by responding companies account, in total, for more than 560 MtCO2e, more than twice as much as in 20083. Absolute numbers have, of course, increased due both to higher numbers of companies responding and to the effort put into enhancing reporting data, in particular data related to Scope 3 emissions.

There is significant homogeneity in the selection of sources of methodology and GWP data – the GHG Protocol and IPPC reports. Meanwhile emissions’ factors are taken from a variety of sources (i.e. IPCC, Ispra, Corinair, GHG Protocol, UNEP), which - of course - has implications for the comparability of data.

A very significant percentage of emissions reported by Italian companies which responded relates to operations outside Italy: 156 MtCO2e

of Scope 1 emissions (equal to 62% of the total) were in more than 50 different countries. The four companies with the highest emissions account for 92% of Scope 1 emissions and 47% of Scope 2 emissions, while one company alone accounts for 90% of Scope 3 emissions. Total reported emissions have decreased, despite the increase of companies included in the sample. In 2010, in fact, responding companies reported a total of almost 585 MtCO2e; while, as already mentioned, in 2011 reported emissions are slightly more than 560 MtCO2e.

15 of the companies which responded declared they have retired certificates associated with zero or low carbon electricity. The downward direction of change in absolute (Scope 1 and 2) emissions further breaks down into 13 companies decreasing their emissions, 13 increasing them and 2 companies with no change.The sector in which most companies succeeded in reducing emissions is the Financial sector.

Assicurazioni Generali - emissions’ decreaseThe main reasons for emission reduction were the reduction in consumption of energy from various sources, reduction emissions through district heating and a substantial reduction in the number of vehicles in the vehicle fleet in Germany.

Finmeccanica – emissions’ increaseIn 2010 the boundary of the Carbon Management System changed through both reporting perimeter modifications (organizational structure of Finmeccanica Group) and more accurate reporting of fuels used to test vehicles in the Aeronautics & Defense sectors.

3. Total Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions reported represent only companies’ direct carbon disclosure. Many companies’ emissions overlap with each other (i.e. electricity related emissions are direct Scope 1 for a utility and indirect Scope 2 for the company consuming the electricity).

33

Fiat - emissions’ decreaseVarious energy efficiency initiatives were implemented throughout the Group to reduce energy consumption and GHG emissions. The main technological and process innovations include:

- high-efficiency lighting systems (LED or traditional technology) for production facilities, offices and external areas, combined with light intensity regulators and remote controls (FGA, Comau)

- flue gas heat recovery systems (FGA)

- high-efficiency engines, electric motor inverters and variable speed air compressors (Magneti Marelli, Fiat Powertrain)

- heating systems with heat exchangers, air destratifiers and automatic management systems (FGA, Magneti Marelli and Teksid)

Cementir – emissions’ increaseThe 2% increase compared with the previous year is partially due to increased production of white cement, particularly in plants outside Europe. White cement manufacture generates proportionally higher CO2 emissions than grey cement.

Companies that have reduced their emissions mainly explained this as being the result of reduction activities, while changes in output and in boundary were the most common rea-son for emissions’ increases. Changes are, in some cases, very significant, with annual decreases of as much as 38% and increases of up to 26%.

Emissions’ trading schemes are, currently and for the next year or two at least, not considered an option by 59% of companies while 41% (13) of responding companies are participating in an emissions’ trading scheme, all of them in the EU ETS.Companies included in the EU ETS are obliged to provide data with a certain degree of accuracy.

Many responding companies (17) report their data accuracy on Scope 1 or Scope 2 emissions to be lower than 5%: a very significant value considering that an estimation of uncertainty due to use of literature emission factor is around 15%.

Scope 3 emissions have been disclosed by 67% of respondents, with a total of almost 300 MtCO2e. This is in line with Scope 3 emissions reported last year. It is worth noting that 90% of total Scope 3 emissions is disclosed by Eni and is categorized as “use of sold products”.

Five companies (A2A, Edison, Enel, Fiat, Italcementi) have improved accounting or disclosed their Scope 3 emissions for the first time in 2011.As shown in the graph, business travel-related emissions are those disclosed by the majority of companies, followed by transportation and the distribution of products.

CDP is committed to increasing the level of verification of emissions’ disclosure in order to improve the quality of information submitted by companies globally. In turn, this will build trust in carbon reporting and lead to an increase in the use of the data in analysis and decision making. Key drivers for verification include the increasing market demand from investors, customers, regulators, non-governmental organizations and other stakeholders for assured and reliable climate data.

Improved internal management processes that can be harnessed for competitive advantage are a key benefit of verification. In order to support this drive, CDP rewards verification highly in both disclosure and performance scoring in 2011 and it is one of the criteria for entry into the CPLI.

ENI In order to comply with and manage the Emissions Trading Scheme, it was necessary to develop a group-wide organization at single site up to business unit level, and then consolidated at corporate level. On a quarterly basis Eni’s corporate HSEQ function coordinates the GHG Management Team. This is composed of the HSE managers of business lines, the Financial Department and, since 2009, the Planning & Control Department and the Accounting and Financial Statements Department. The Team is responsible for approving the Transaction Plan each year. Eni is developing, in its industrial activities worldwide, a portfolio of reduction projects based on the Kyoto flexible mechanisms. Eni is also leveraging on its widespread presence in developing countries to export environmentally-friendly technology and obtain corresponding emissions’ reduction certificates.

Enel’s strategy for combating climate change rests on five pillars:

- investing in the best available technologies for thermal power generation (e.g. low CO2, high- efficiency coal-fired power plants and combined- cycle gas-fired power plants)

- deploying zero-emission sources, such as renewables and nuclear

- increasing energy efficiency

- researching, developing and demonstrating CO2

capture and sequestration and innovative renewable energy technologies

- globally committing to cut CO2 emissions, disseminating projects and best practice in eastern Europe and developing countries.

Verification levels in 2011

In 2011, a number of criteria were introduced to determine what is accepted as verification within CDP’s scoring methodology. It requires that a verification statement:

1. is related to the relevant emission scope.

2. clearly states the type of verification that has been given and the verification standard used.

3. covers the current reporting year.

4. is undertaken by an independent third party.

Verification of emissions has decreased in the year on year analysis in this report because CDP has now strengthened its criteria to reflect the importance of verification. 70% (23) of respondents stated that they had gained or were in the process of gaining verification of Scope 1 or 2 emissions (an apparent decrease of 8% compared with 2010). However, only 33% (11) met all criteria noted above for Scope 1 or 2 emissions, resulting in an overall decrease of 37%. CDP sees this higher

standard as a key strategic priority to enhance the quality and reliability of data reported by companies for the use of investors and consumers, both now and in the future. The sector breakdown of companies verifying their Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions is shown in Figure 26.

The number of companies obtaining ve-rification is similar for both Scope 1 and 2 emissions for the majority of sectors. Energy, Utilities and Telecommunication Services have 100% of companies with Scope 1 verification.

What is CDP doing to support reporting companies? For 2012, CDP is further clarifying what constitutes an acceptable verification process, and communicated this as part of the questionnaire consultation process in September 2011. Looking further ahead, CDP has launched a verification white paper and consultation on a verification roadmap (2013-2018) aiming to encourage more companies to verify their climate data.

1. The key trends table provides a snapshot of response trends based on headline data. That is, responses given to main questions without assessment of detailed explanations in follow up questions. The numbers in this table are based on the online responses submitted to CDP as of 7 September 2011. They may therefore differ from numbers in the rest of the report which are based on the number of companies which responded by the applicable local deadline (e.g. 30 June 2011). Please refer to the CDP website and the local reports for an updated version of this table.

2. In some cases, the number of companies in a sample may differ slightly from the named sample size due to takeovers, mergers, acquisitions and duplicate share listings.

3. Includes offline responses to the CDP 2011 questionnaire and indirect answers submitted by parent companies. All other key trend indicators are based on direct and online company responses only.

4. Asia excluding Japan, India, China and Korea (ex-JICK).

5. Includes responses across all samples as well as responses submitted by companies not included in specific geographic or industry samples in 2011.

6. This takes into account companies reporting that data verification is either complete of underway.

* Denotes change in number or companies in sample compared to previous year.

**Denotes new sample for 2011.
