Luxaviation’s GHG Emission Reduction Strategy
Luxaviation’s primary emissions source is the combustion of conventional jet fuel. Therefore, our GHG emissions reduction strategy is based on three fundamental pillars, which aim to:
- Improve fuel efficiency;
- Use sustainable aviation fuel and;
- Offset remaining GHG emissions.
Additionally, our holistic approach to reducing our environmental impact across all scopes encompasses the following:
- Electrification: Invest in electrifying group-wide operations.
- e-SAF Development: Actively contribute to the development of e-SAF through Luxaviation’s “Go-to-Zero” Investment Fund.
- Renewable Energy: Source renewable energy.
- Waste management & Responsible Sourcing: adopt principles of circularity.
- Education: Educate and raise sustainability awareness using Luxaviation’s Multi-Stakeholder Engagement Programme.
Luxaviation’s Environmental Targets
ExecuJet, part of the Luxaviation Group aims to achieve 65% electrification of all ground handling equipment (GHE) by 2027, progressing to 100% by 2030. Currently, 61% of this target has been achieved.
By 2027, we aim to increase the percentage of resold empty legs by 10% compared with the total number of empty legs. With our global presence, empty legs are frequently available at short notice, offer substantial cost savings and provide an environmentally conscious alternative by utilizing flights that would otherwise operate empty.
Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF)
Sustainable Aviation Fuel, otherwise known as SAF, is a non-fossil-derived alternative to conventional jet fuel. Sustainable Aviation Fuel is available for Luxaviation Group in various locations. The SAF map lets our clients visualize the SAF availability, enabling them to make more environmentally conscious choices during their planning.
We invite our partners, clients, and stakeholders to join us on this journey towards a more responsible industry.
Together, we can make a positive lasting impact and reshape the legacy of our skies.
