As of 2025, Eurocontrol has not disclosed specific carbon emissions data, including Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. The organisation is headquartered in Belgium (BE) and is actively engaged in climate commitments, although no specific reduction targets or initiatives have been documented. Eurocontrol's emissions data from previous years indicates a focus on sustainable aviation fuels, with production factors for various fuel types such as Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids (HEFA) and Power to Liquid (PtL)/eSAF. For instance, the emissions factor for HEFA is approximately 0.0139 kg CO2e per MJ, while PtL/eSAF is about 0.325 kg CO2e per MJ. Despite the absence of formal reduction targets or commitments, Eurocontrol's ongoing initiatives reflect a commitment to addressing climate change within the aviation sector. The organisation's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent company, indicating that it operates independently in its climate reporting and initiatives.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Eurocontrol is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
