Emissions Management Proactively Manage Carbon Emissions
Airlines around the world have increased their focus on tracking CO2 (carbon dioxide) emissions in order to provide greener operations. Some of these efforts recently have been driven by the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (EU-ETS) legislation that began in 2010 and is especially important for airlines flying into or out of any member E.U. states. The reporting of CO2 emissions, its verification by an authorized verification agency and submission to the identified regulatory authority is an expected process of emissions management.
Sabre® AirCentre™ Emissions Manager helps airlines collect, validate and store carbon emissions data so they can comply with the requirements of the European Emissions Trading Scheme and other government regulations. Emissions Manager automates the data collection, verification and reporting process though defined integrations with airlines operations, airport and reservations systems.
While supporting the EU-ETS requirements, the solution will also be enhanced to manage other requirements likely to arise from pending legislation in countries around the world.
