The challenge of reducing third-party emissions at airports

In order to effectively address an airport's Scope 3 emissions inventory, which involves more than 95% of its carbon footprint emissions, it is essential to work closely and collaboratively with customers and suppliers to maintain the commitment of the parties involved to the long-term exchange of information. The growing escalation of the sector toward achieving net zero objectives makes it necessary to define a decarbonization strategy through measurable actions, which inevitably includes considering upstream Scope 3 emissions, which correspond mostly to the performance of suppliers.

The audience will learn:

  • Scope 3 emissions calculation
  • Actions to boost the decarbonization of third parties
  • How to involve third parties in the net zero commitment
