CO2 emissions

For many years now we have been involved in initiating a number of measures to control and reduce direct and indirect CO₂ emissions produced in airport grounds and deriving from airport operator’s activities.
Carbon dioxide emissions are broken down as follows:
Scope 1 - Direct emissions associated with sources owned by or under control of Group companies, such as fuel used for heating and operational vehicles needed for airport activities.
Scope 2 - Indirect emissions associated with generation of electricity or heat purchased and used by Group companies.
Scope 3 - Other indirect emissions arising from activities of Group companies, but produced from sources not owned or controlled by the Company itself, such as business trips and employee commuting.
We participate in Airport Carbon Accreditation initiative launched by ACI Europe (Airport Council International) to promote concrete contributions by airports towards tackling climate change. The project included the launch of a number of actions to control and reduce direct and indirect CO₂ emissions by airport operator, aircraft and all parties working in the airport system.
Airport Carbon Accreditation provides four possible levels of accreditation:

• Mapping – checking of emissions under direct control of airport operator (scope 1 and 2).
• Reduction - creation of an emission reduction plan (scope 1 and 2);
• Optimisation - calculation of emissions produced by airport stakeholders and their involvement in reduction plans (scope 3);
• Neutrality - achieving Carbon Neutrality for emissions under direct control of airport operator (scope 1 and 2) by offsetting.

In 2015 we confirmed our European leadership position for both Linate and Malpensa airports, as part of the “3+ neutrality” group.
