ATHENS INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Athens International Airport (AIA) reported total carbon emissions of approximately 26,448,370 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from Scope 3 emissions, which accounted for about 99% of the total. Specifically, Scope 1 emissions were 350,600 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions (market-based) were 91,430 kg CO2e. The breakdown of Scope 3 emissions includes 11,769,520 kg CO2e from the use of sold products and 13,478,510 kg CO2e from downstream leased assets. In 2023, AIA's emissions were slightly lower, with Scope 1 emissions at 345,700 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions (market-based) at 93,100 kg CO2e. However, no Scope 3 data was disclosed for that year. Despite the substantial emissions figures, AIA has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor does it appear to have cascaded any targets from a parent organisation. The airport's commitment to addressing climate change remains unclear, as there are no documented reduction initiatives or SBTi targets reported. Overall, AIA's emissions profile highlights the significant impact of operational activities, particularly in Scope 3, underscoring the need for comprehensive climate strategies moving forward.
