Brisbane Airport (BNE) has become one of the first Australian airports to achieve net-zero emissions (Scope 1 and 2).

Zero scopes 1 and 2 emissions

Brisbane Airport Corporation has reduced its Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 97% through: purchasing 100% renewable electricity generation from Stanwell for Queensland based wind farm and solar energy; expanding on-site solar to 10MW; and replacing 24 traditional internal combustion engine fleet vehicles with electric-powered vehicles. The remaining 3% of emissions have been offset through native bush regeneration projects in southwest Queensland via Tasman Environmental Markets.
