Sustainability Stories
Reducing Carbon and increasing airport sustainability Level 3 ACA
Airport Carbon Accreditation is a global carbon management certification programme for airports. It independently assesses and recognises airports' efforts to manage and reduce carbon emissions, through six levels of certification.
In 2011, Zayed International Airport became the first airport in the Asia-Pacific region to achieve Airport Carbon Accredited status. By 2018, AUH had progressed to Level 3 Optimisation under the same programme.
The Optimisation level of Airport Carbon Accreditation requires airports to engage third parties in carbon footprint management — including airlines and service providers such as independent ground handlers, catering companies and air traffic control, as well as others working on the airport site. It also involves engaging authorities and users on surface access modes.
We aim to continually improve our accreditation level, demonstrating our ongoing commitment to sustainability in the aviation sector.
