Xiamen Airlines's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Xiamen Airlines reported carbon emissions data that includes a carbon dioxide emission factor of approximately 0.00092 kg CO2e per tonne-kilometre (RTK). This data is part of a broader trend in the airline industry, where emissions are often assessed in terms of revenue and operational efficiency. The airline's revenue for 2023 was about USD 4.73 billion. For the previous years, the airline's emissions factors were as follows: in 2022, the ATK carbon dioxide emission factor was approximately 0.629 kg CO2e per tonne-kilometre, and in 2021, it was about 0.636 kg CO2e per tonne-kilometre. In 2020, the factor was approximately 0.623 kg CO2e per tonne-kilometre. These figures indicate a relatively stable emission factor over the years, reflecting the airline's operational efficiency. Xiamen Airlines does not currently disclose specific Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions data, nor does it have defined reduction targets or climate pledges. The absence of such commitments may reflect the broader context of the airline industry, which is increasingly under pressure to enhance sustainability practices. It is important to note that Xiamen Airlines is a current subsidiary of China Southern Airlines Company Limited, which may influence its emissions reporting and sustainability initiatives. However, specific emissions data cascaded from the parent company has not been detailed in the provided information. Overall, while Xiamen Airlines has not set explicit reduction targets, its emissions factors suggest a commitment to monitoring and potentially improving its carbon footprint in alignment with industry standards.
