INNERGEX'S 2021 SUSTAINABILITY REPORT: BUILDING A PATHWAY TO A GREENER FUTURE

Canada NewsWire

LONGUEUIL, QC, April 7, 2022 /CNW/ - Innergex Renewable Energy Inc. (TSX: INE) ("Innergex" or the "Corporation") publishes its 2021 Sustainability Report highlighting the Corporation's continuous efforts to improve its Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") performance while pursuing its growth activities in accordance with its sustainable business model that balances People, our Planet and Prosperity. The information is also accessible via Innergex's Sustainability Reporting Initiative web platform.

Innergex's efforts are purposely linked with the disclosures outlined in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals ("SDGs"), the Carbon Disclosure Project ("CDP") and the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board ("SASB"). A little later this year, Innergex will also be releasing its first report built on its Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures ("TCFD") framework assessment, to complement this Sustainability Report.

Advancements in 2021

In 2021, Innergex improved its sustainability commitment by:

  • Incorporating SASB disclosures into its reporting cycle
  • Launching a new Diversity and Inclusion Policy
  • Submitting its first response to the CDP
  • Launching a Sustainability Committee
  • Adding new metrics including total hours worked by employees; participation rate in employee share purchase plan; total employer contributions to the employees' RRSPs; number of internal promotions; turnover rate; and number of new hires
  • Updating the Policy Regarding Board Diversity
  • Becoming a signatory in the Solar Industry Forced Labor Prevention Pledge
  • Launching a Telework Policy
  • Updating the Whistle-Blowing Policy, the Sustainable Development Policy and the Health & Safety Policy
  • Adding Ethical Behaviour and Respect & Civility at Work training modules to annual learning requirements
