Last year, we announced plans to build a large-scale Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) manufacturing facility in Rotterdam. Since then, we have made significant progress, finalising the design and advancing the Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) phase, set for completion in Q4 2024. Today, we are pleased to announce that Gunvor Group Ltd will join us as a 50% partner in this project through a proposed joint venture. SAF is a key element in the ONE VARO Transformation strategy, helping airline customers – one of the most hard-to-abate sectors – to decarbonise. This investment will enable VARO and Gunvor to produce SAF equivalent to 7% of the EU’s 2030 SAF mandate, significantly advancing the aviation sector's decarbonisation goals.

Today we are celebrating #InternationalWomensDay at VARO Energy, and this year it is all about Inspiring Inclusion. We are determined to build a more inclusive workplace, facilitate women’s professional development and inspire the next generation of women leaders – at VARO and beyond. And there is no one better to explore these important themes than our Human Resources Director, Irene Franck. Irene tells us how she overcame bias to get to where she is today, and offers words of advice for aspiring young women looking to make their mark. This year, we continue our efforts, with 22% Female Senior Managers ( 6% vs. 2022) and the launch of our first VARO Women’s Network. This network is a platform for exchange, mutual support and development, facilitating women’s professional development in alignment with our 2030 diversity goals. There is still much to be done, but we are up for the task! #IWD2024 #GenderEquality #Empowerment

Today, we are announcing a new strategic partnership with Orim Energy to provide shipping customers in Europe’s largest maritime hub, Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp, with long-term low carbon solutions. VARO’s huge biofuels trading capabilities will complement Orim’s extensive distribution, storage and bunkering capabilities in Rotterdam – Europe’s largest port. VARO has a long track record of providing biofuels for maritime logistics. Since 2018, the company has supplied the Port of Rotterdam with HVO100 for use with the Port’s service fleet. In 2023 VARO signed an agreement with Höegh Autoliners to supply the company with advanced biofuels for its shipping fleet. This partnership is aligned with VARO’s strategy to become the partner of choice for customers in the energy transition by providing them with the low-carbon energy solutions they need to decarbonise.

I often speak of the importance of Safety, and I cannot stress this enough. At VARO Energy, Safety is our highest priority - for our employees, contractors and customers alike. Severe incidents represent the worst possible outcome for any organisation and have a deep impact on all of us and our loved ones. Yet, industry research consistently underscores that these incidents could have been prevented by adhering to straightforward, life-saving rules. That is why, as part of our safety policy, we have also incorporated the 9 Life-Saving Rules, as defined by the IOGP (International Association of Oil & Gas Producers). These rules are considered “life critical” and relate to activities that - if not executed correctly every time - pose a significant risk. I believe that it is important to foster, across our industry, a common understanding around these rules and a standard for their implementation. At VARO - whether in our manufacturing sites, terminals or logistical operations and offices - we aim to create a culture where safety is not just a rule, but a way of life. A culture where everyone is empowered to STOP WORK whenever conditions and behaviours are considered to be unsafe. This is our collective commitment, and we are proud to live by it, every day.

The road transportation sector represents one fifth of the EU's greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. According to the IEA, to get on track for net zero emissions by 2050, CO2 emissions from the transport sector must fall by more than 3% per year to 2030. Industry largely relies on commercial fleets to transport goods, traditionally powered via conventional fuels. I am proud of the part we, at VARO Energy, play through our e-Mobility strategy, to help decarbonise commercial road transportation by accelerating the electrification of commercial fleets. A great example of this is the new e-truck charging hub - Antonie Bodaanweg (Waalhaven) - in the Port of Rotterdam, inaugurated earlier today. Initiated by the Port of Rotterdam and Truckparkings Rotterdam Exploitatie BV, this is the first of its kind in the heart of logistic Rotterdam and Europe’s largest port. VARO Charging is proud to have partnered with Truckparkings Rotterdam, a market leader in secured truck parking, to operate this charging site. Offering a 24/7 charging solution, we ensure a sustainable energy supply for all battery-electric heavy-duty trucks and coaches. This is enabled via the software of Road, a key e-Mobility European company in which VARO holds the majority stake. I would like to extend my thanks to the VARO teams that contributed to make this happen and especially to Sacha Konan, Country President Benelux, Florence Lebeau, our Brand Strategy Director and our e-Mobility colleagues Ruben Benders, Taco van Berkel, Stefan van den Bos. This is another milestone in our growing e-Mobility business which is playing a leading role in partnering with customers to decarbonise mobility.

2024 will be a pivotal year for VARO Energy, as we further accelerate our ambition to be the energy transition partner of choice for our partners and customers. Stepping into the new year, we have four key focus areas for our company: · Operational excellence in our existing and new businesses · Helping our customers in their needs for both energy security and energy transition through existing and new products and services · Disciplined integration, and continuing momentum in delivery · Partnerships that enable pace in the execution of our ONE VARO Transformation strategy Today, I would like to highlight our long-standing partnership with the Port of Rotterdam, which exemplifies our commitment to help our customers decarbonise and reach net zero. Together we are accelerating the energy transition, even in the hardest-to-abate sectors. We are working with the Port of Rotterdam to help decarbonise maritime transport and inland shipping in Europe’s largest port. Since 2018, the Port of Rotterdam has used VARO’s HVO100 (100% Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) for its service fleet. This biofuel is made entirely from sustainable materials, reducing CO2 emissions by up to 89% compared to conventional diesel. This ‘drop-in fuel’ can be blended with conventional diesel in any proportion and is well suited for all existing diesel engines without modification. As a result, HVO is a highly accessible means of decarbonisation that is rapidly scalable at a relatively low cost. Our partnership is testament of our commitment to drive change and shape a sustainable future through strategic collaborations. Here’s to a year of prosperity, where businesses forge enduring partnerships, innovation, and sustainable success!

Shipping is a critical part of the global economy, carrying almost 80% of the world’s trade volume, according to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). But as shipping volumes grow, there is an increase in carbon emissions. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has set an ambition to reduce the carbon intensity of emissions from shipping by at least 40% by 2030, and 70% by 2050, compared with 2008 levels. To achieve this, the shipping industry needs access to practical solutions to accelerate decarbonisation. At VARO Energy, we are playing our part by supplying 100% advanced biofuels for deep-sea transportation from Europe. Today, we are announcing a new partnership with Höegh Autoliners to forge innovative solutions, share insights, and drive sustainable progress. Together, we aim to leverage the potential of biofuels to help decarbonise deep-sea shipping, enabling the reduction of GHG emissions associated to the transport and distribution of goods.
