Energy use Improving energy efficiency continued to be a strategic priority for Vodafone, to control both energy costs and GHG emissions. Energy use by our mobile access network, fixed-line network and technology centres accounted for 93% of our total global energy consumption across all operations. Energy efficiencies were achieved through a wide range of initiatives including modernisation of legacy equipment with new generation and highly efficient network equipment, new software functionality that reduces energy consumption in low-load conditions, improving energy efficiency in our data centres, digital solutions for energy optimisation, and rationalisation of
our properties. Energy Sources GWh

Notes: 1. Renewable transport includes only renewable electricity from charging points at office locations used to charge electric vehicles. It excludes any biofuel content in diesel or petrol vehicle fuel which is included in the non-renewable transport category. 2. Previously reported information has been restated to remove the estimate for electricity generated from stationary diesel and petrol generators using a conversion efficiency factor.
