Decarbonization cannot stop at the aircraft
WHY THIS “GREEN AVIATION” CHALLENGE?
The carbon footprint runs across the entire ecosystem

Airlines and airports face ambitious environmental targets while still needing to contain costs and avoid shifting the financial burden to passengers. Progress depends on addressing operational emissions, energy-intensive infrastructure, supply-chain impact, and growing regulatory and reputational pressure together

Key benefits
Decarbonization Becomes Operational

Connecting energy performance, infrastructure, renewable generation, and supplier emissions creates a practical route from sustainability targets to operational action

Cut energy where demand is highest

Energy audits and smarter climate control help reduce terminal consumption while maintaining passenger comfort and operational performance

check icon
Put renewable power into the infrastructure

Renewable-energy projects can move from initial design through permitting and implementation with greater control and visibility

check icon
Reduce emissions beyond direct operations

Supplier decarbonization and sustainable procurement extend emissions reduction across the wider aviation value chain

check icon
Turn climate targets into investable action

Structured roadmaps connect emissions baselines, priorities, regulatory requirements, costs, and expected impact before investment decisions are made

How NTT DATA helps

01
Build the decarbonization roadmap

Assess emissions, establish targets, identify gaps, and prioritize actions across operations, infrastructure, energy, and the supply chain

02
Move renewable projects from design to execution

Coordinate renewable-energy projects from layout and technical planning through permits, authorizations, documentation, and ready-to-build stages

03
Make terminal energy performance visible

Audit airport energy consumption, define tailored efficiency plans, and use advanced monitoring to improve climate control, energy use, and operational resilience

04
Turn supply-chain emissions into supplier action

We don’t treat indirect emissions as someone else’s problem. We segment suppliers, identify reduction levers, set targets, and structure scalable engagement programs

05
Connect impact, cost, and compliance

Combine regulatory guidance, operational governance, monitoring, and decision tools to evaluate the expected environmental and economic impact of decarbonization initiatives

Proven impact
Supplier decarbonization strategy, prioritization, monitoring, and engagement across an aviation supply chain of more than 5,500 suppliers
Results that matter
Measurable progress across energy, emissions, and resilience

The source combines a quantified supplier-decarbonization roadmap with expected operational outcomes across airport infrastructure and energy management

Scale decarbonization across the supply chain

More than 5,500 suppliers included within the reference program’s supplier ecosystem

check icon
Turn ambition into a measurable target

20% supplier carbon-footprint reduction by 2030 established in the reference roadmap

check icon
Lower energy use and CO₂ emissions

Energy auditing, smarter climate control, electrification, and renewable infrastructure are expected to improve environmental performance

check icon
Strengthen resilience while controlling cost

The approach targets greater resilience during peak demand alongside long-term economic savings

Make sustainability operational across every facility, process, and supplier
