Emissions

Perth Airport has achieved Level 2: Reduction certification under the Airports Council International (ACI) Airport Carbon Accreditation program and is currently working towards Level 3 (proposed for 2020). This required the development of:

• An externally-verified carbon footprint report
• Data to demonstrate an annual reduction in emissions compared to the three-year rolling average
• The development of a Carbon Management Plan
• Setting an emissions reduction target

The ACI’s Airport Carbon Accreditation is the only institutionally-endorsed, carbon management certification standard for airports and participants are independently verified in accordance with ISO14064 (Greenhouse Gas Accounting). The management of our carbon emissions is a long-term commitment and supports our views of sustainability and effective environmental management. A statement of our commitment and intent is provided here.
