Birmingham Airport (BHX) in the UK today [04 Aug 2022] published its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions report for 2021/22.
The report reveals emissions rose 12% on the previous year, 2020/21, when operations were severely reduced by COVID.
Publishing a full GHG emissions inventory covering Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions is a first for BHX, which notes that it signals its intent to increase transparency and invite greater levels of public accountability as it progresses towards its goal of becoming a net zero carbon airport by 2033.
Included in its report are emissions from aircraft on-stand power, engine testing and customer and staff journeys to work.
