IATA, in collaboration with Atkins, has developed a suite of innovative digital tools for airports to estimate the embodied carbon associated with the construction of terminal buildings and aviation assets.
The digital toolkit will enable airports to better understand and mitigate the impacts of construction-related activities that contribute to carbon emissions.
As the global aviation industry embraces post-pandemic growth, modernizing and adapting infrastructure to meet net zero targets and the demands of sustainable aviation, the need to lower embodied carbon in new buildings, such as terminals and runways, becomes increasingly pressing.
