Car enthusiast, CEO Renault Group & CEO Ampere

What better occasion than this #WorldEnvironmentDay to recall Renault Group's commitments? We dare and we innovate, for example when we decide to address decarbonization on our products' entire lifecycle, from cradle to grave.   And we walk the talk! We have reduced the Group's overall carbon footprint by 28% between 2010 and 2023! It is the result of more than a decade of investment and work. And that puts us on track to achieve carbon neutrality in 2040 in Europe and by 2050 globally, with Ampere leading the way from 2035 onwards.   Renault Group is recognized as a frontrunner also in the #circulareconomy, with decades of experience. It shows in our vehicles: our car of the year Scenic is 90% recyclable, 24% made of recycled materials. Behind the scenes, we’re building our circular value chain. In 2021 we've turned our plant of Flins into a living lab: the ReFactory. In 2022 we’ve initiated THE FUTURE IS NEUTRAL: the first 360-degree circular economy enterprise in the automotive world. A new kind of enterprise, open to partners and designed to serve all automotive players with integrated solutions, including the first offer dedicated to #EVs in Europe. These solutions are already running and generated almost 1billion euros last year.   But the race towards #carbonneutrality can't be a solo play. That is why we created a robust ecosystem all along our electric value chain including downstream for the end-of-life with our long-term partner SUEZ, which I met this morning. Thank you Sabrina Soussan for our insightful exchange about the challenges ahead of us and the solutions that we can provide together. The road is still long, but I believe we have all it takes to tackle mobility’s biggest challenges as a team!

Luca de Meo Mercedes García García parabéns por encarar esta nova fase de frente, sem medo e isto é sensacional, eu também estou neste mesmo caminho só que o meu foco é uma descarbonização por atacado e focado no setor automotivo, e usando a sua própria fala onde me senti muito confortável... "abordar a descarbonização em todo o ciclo de vida dos nossos produtos, do berço ao túmulo"... Entender que para avançar não precisamos apagar o que fizemos, mas reconhecer que acertamos e erramos mas seguimos para o futuro com foco na fusão do passado com o presente, que nos levará a um futuro sólido. Baseando na seguinte máxima... "O carro mais sustentável do planeta é aquele que não foi produzido", formatei um projeto com os carros que estão circulando mas sem deixar de continuar a produção dos carros nas montadoras, apenas diminuindo este volume de fabricação, e dando a opção dos carros já existentes passarem por uma atualização bem simples, que o deixará mais econômico e emitindo muito menos CO2, algo menor que 40% do que emite atualmente e ainda dando menos manutenção aos motores algo em torno de 60% de economia. Com este projeto aplicado aos veículos em circulação teremos uma redução superior a 85 GtCO2 em 5 anos.

Your insights and Renault’s commitment to circularity offer us real reasons for optimism in fulfilling SUEZ’s purpose.

12 juin (Reuters) - La Commission européenne va annoncer mercredi l'instauration à partir du mois prochain de droits de douane supplémentaires allant jusqu'à 25% sur les importations de véhicules électriques chinois, rapporte le Financial Times citant des sources proches du dossier. Cette décision fait suite à une enquête ouverte en octobre dernier sur les subventions dont bénéficieraient les constructeurs automobiles chinois de la part de Pékin. L'UE et le ministère chinois des Affaires étrangères n'ont pas répondu dans l'immédiat à une demande de commentaire de Reuters. Ces droits de douane devraient fortement renchérir les coûts des voitures électriques chinoises vendues en Europe et risquent d'accroître les tensions commerciales avec la Chine.

NISSAN : Des équipes motivées à fond et un bon allié pour Renault. https://youtu.be/b8x61lWPFVY?si=O4H9OC-8Pi31U9Km

La gigafactory au Maroc : question : Renault y participera t-elle ? Les batteries seront les plus performantes du marché, plus petites avec des composants plus performants, moins cher et moins polluants donnant une plus grande autonomie autour des 1000 KM.

At THE FUTURE IS NEUTRAL we are structuring the new value chain of automotive circular economy for the automotive world. Thank you for putting us under the spotlight Luca de Meo!

What an experience delivered with such simplicity and a touch of humor. Thank you Luca de Meo
