Eight Indian airports are now carbon-certified.  Airports Council International (ACI) gives the certification.

What is Airport Carbon Accreditation (ACA)?

Airport Carbon Accreditation (ACA) is a certification programme for carbon management at airports around the world.

Key facts!

  • The carbon certification looks at what airports are doing to keep their carbon emissions under control.
  • In addition to lowering them.
  • Reduction, optimization, and transition are some of the categories that are looked at.
  • Also, the certification is given in six levels, and Level 4+ is the highest.
  • Bengaluru’s Kempegowda International Airport gets Level 3+.
  • Delhi and Mumbai international airports get a Level 4+.
  • Experts state it’s encouraging to see Indian airports setting new standards.
  • Furthermore, this shows that India is willing to invest in a sustainable future.
  • In the next two decades, aviation experts predict India to boost global air traffic by over 5%.
  • So, India will most likely be the world’s third-largest market for civil aviation until 2040.
  • Therefore, getting carbon certified is an important step toward reducing carbon emissions.
