Introduction Transforming care Investing in our people Accelerating possibilities Protecting the environment Creating value responsibly Appendix Minimizing our carbon footprint (scopes 1 and 2) The company’s C3 energy strategy drives our decarbonization efforts: Cutting energy use by investing in energy efficiency at our existing sites and new construction that meets the highest climate standards. This work includes adhering to the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) framework and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 50001:2018 energy management standard. Converting to renewable energy sources instead of relying on fossil fuels. Compensating with carbon credits and offset projects for remaining unavoidable emissions. Global reduction in 3 energy intensity Our C results for all manufacturing and key distribution sites in 2022 included: 1 • Reduction in energy intensity. Since 2017, Boston Scientific • More all-electric buildings and expansions. We continued 42 20% decrease in energy has decreased energy intensity globally by 20%. reducing reliance on fossil fuels with new all-electric buildings 40 intensity since 2017 • Further expansion of ISO 50001:2018 energy management. at our Penang, Malaysia global distribution center and Maple 38 We increased our total certified manufacturing and Grove, Minnesota manufacturing site. 36 distribution sites to 12, with three new certifications, • Solar energy use. Onsite solar installations at our 34 and expect all manufacturing and key distribution sites Marlborough headquarters, Quincy distribution center and 32 to be certified by 2025. Dorado, Puerto Rico manufacturing site generated 5 GWh 30 • Sourced renewable electricity equivalent to 76% for all of renewable electricity in 2022. manufacturing and key distribution sites. In the United • On course for 90% renewable energy (all sources) by 2027. 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 States and Europe, we achieved 100% renewable electricity We recorded 40% renewable energy for all sources, keeping Energy intensity in ahead of plan and remain on track to achieve this target us on course to reach our goal of 90% by 2027. MWh/USD million net sales globally by 2024. 1 Energy Intensity is measured by the quantity of energy required per unit output or activity so that using less energy to produce a product reduces the intensity. 42 2022 Performance Report
