6 The annual electricity consumption data of the BBVA Mexico Real Estate Database does not consider some locations that are not part of the centralized collection agreement with CFE, whose energy consumption is not known, among other aspects, because it is included as part of the rent of the property.
7 The figures for electricity consumption by non-renewable sources for 2022 were updated. The equivalent of energy purchased through renewable energy certificates was subtracted from the previous year's values (166,775 MWh).
8 In 2023, electricity consumption by non-renewable sources was 182,034.00 MWh and the equivalent of energy purchased through renewable energy certificates was subtracted, while the renewable energy generated was 115,349.722 MWh.
9 The total number of employees is considered as the average number of employees of Grupo Financiero BBVA Mexico in 2023, with a value of 44,398 employees.
10 Gigajoules for natural gas are obtained from supplier invoices.
11 As of 2021, total diesel consumption includes use in Grupo Financiero BBVA Mexico's facilities and in vehicles owned by Grupo Financiero BBVA Mexico.

Scope:

- Refers to energy consumption within the organization.

* For the calculations of LP gas, diesel and gasoline consumption in 2023, the calorific values of the “List of fuels and their calorific values (CONUEE) to be used for reporting to RENE 2023” were used.
** Refrigerant consumptions were measured as of 2021.

1. Figures as of the end of 2023.
2. The calculation of total CO2 emitted is the result of the sum of Scope 1 (fossil fuels and refrigerant use from 2021), Scope 2 (electricity) and Scope 3 (includes employee commuting, air travel and waste) emissions.
3. The methodology described by the IPCC is used to calculate emissions. In the case of fossil fuel and electricity emission factors, the IPCC and IEA are used. DEFRA emission factors are used for vehicle fleet, refrigerant gas leaks, business travel, waste management and employee travel.
4. The total number of employees is considered as the average number of employees of Grupo Financiero BBVA México in 2023, with a value of 44,398 employees.
5. Gases included in the calculation of emissions Scope 1, 2 and 3: CO2, CH4, N2O.

Purchase of carbon credits


BBVA México purchases and retires carbon credits in an amount equivalent to its CO2 emissions from the categories over which it has direct management capacity (i.e. scopes 1, 2 and some categories of scope 3).

Grupo BBVA developed an internal Voluntary Carbon Market standard, based on best practices, to evaluate high quality carbon credit programs and types of credits that generate a real, additional and verifiable climate impact.

Renewable energy certificates

In addition, in order to advance the transition towards the renewable energy consumption target, in 2023 BBVA México purchased 182,034 renewable energy certificates, representing 182,034 MWh.


Water


Water is an essential resource that guarantees the cleanliness and hygiene of BBVA México’s operations, as well as that of the employees who come to the offices.
