International Airlines Group (IAG) has released that it will commit to powering 10% of its flights with sustainable aviation fuel by 2030.
The Group will purchase one million tons of sustainable jet fuel per year enabling it to cut its annual emissions by two million tons by 2030. This equates to removing one million cars from Europe’s roads each year.
In addition, IAG will extend its net zero commitment to its supply chain. The Group will be working with its suppliers to enable them to commit to achieving net zero emissions by 2050 for the products and services they provide to IAG.
Luis Gallego, IAG´s chief executive, said: “For more than a decade, IAG has led the airline industry’s actions to reduce its carbon footprint. It’s clearly challenging to transition to a low carbon business model but, despite the current pandemic, we remain resolute in our climate commitments.
