As of 2025, Eurocontrol has not disclosed specific carbon emissions data, including Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. The organisation is headquartered in Belgium and is actively engaged in climate commitments, although no specific reduction targets or initiatives have been documented. In previous years, Eurocontrol has reported emissions related to various fuel types, such as Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids (HEFA) and Kerosene, but these figures do not provide a comprehensive overview of their total emissions. For instance, in 2017, Eurocontrol reported Scope 1 emissions of approximately 839,000,000 kg CO2e from mobile combustion. Despite the absence of formal reduction targets or commitments, Eurocontrol is involved in initiatives aimed at improving sustainability within the aviation sector, as outlined in their "Objective Skygreen" report for 2022-2030. This report highlights their focus on sustainable aviation fuels and other innovative solutions to reduce the environmental impact of air travel. Overall, while Eurocontrol has made strides in addressing climate change, specific emissions data and reduction targets remain unspecified, indicating a need for further transparency and commitment in their climate strategy.
