Comments to the indicators related to specific sustainability targets can be found in this report, pages 019-024. The developments in the remaining indicators are commented on in the Vestas Sustainability Report 2020. 2)Data only available from 2019 onwards. 3)The decrease from 2019 to 2020 is attributable to a design change in 2020 that has optimised the metal content in the turbine hub after which the blade mass corresponds to a bigger share of the total rotor mass. 4)The 2019 baseline has been updated from 44 percent to 42 percent recyclability due to adjustments in the bill of materials. 5)This covers 70 percent of the scope 3 emissions. 6)In the Vestas Annual Report and Sustainability Report 2019, this number was 151 million tonnes saved. Since then, the fleet average capacity factor used has been corrected, and the number adjusted accordingly. 7)Only Board members elected by the general meeting are included. 8)Employees in leadership positions comprise managers, specialists, project managers, and above. 9)The cases not registered here as substantiated or unsubstantiated are still under investigation at the end of the year.
