This initiative is expected to reduce diesel fuel consumption by approximately 375,000 litres per year, leading to a decrease in CO2 emissions of up to 1,400 tonnes per year. These measures are part of a broader strategy to enhance sustainability and reduce the environmental impact of airport operations. While no Scope 1 or Scope 2 emissions data is currently available for 2023, the airport's proactive approach to energy efficiency and emissions reduction reflects its commitment to climate action. The emissions data and reduction initiatives are sourced directly from Flughafen Wien Aktiengesellschaft, ensuring transparency and accountability in their environmental reporting.
