DfT Consultation: 2040 Zero Emissions Airport Target
Our ambition is for airport operations in England to be zero emission by 2040. We are gathering information to help design the policy to reach this target.
We are using this call for evidence to gather feedback on the:
definition of airport operations
emissions sources that should be included within the target
We want to better understand:
to which entities the target should apply
the type and size of airport the target should be applied to
potential regulatory or voluntary approaches that could be used to implement the target
how the proposed target could be aligned with current schemes, such as the Airports Council International Airport Carbon Accreditation scheme
the barriers and opportunities which may exist in implementing the target, including commercial feasibility
what the appropriate measuring and reporting processes should be
