The accreditation, formally awarded this month during the ACI Asia-Pacific & Middle East Regional Assembly, reinforces  DXB position among a select group of global airports recognised for absolute emissions reductions and leading initiatives with stakeholders across the aviation ecosystem to drive change. 

Griffiths said: “Coinciding with Earth Day, this echoes Dubai Airports’ continued progress towards the UAE’s Net Zero by 2050 target. Dubai Airports has established a comprehensive long-term decarbonisation strategy, actively being put into practice through a series of impactful initiatives.” 

These include enhancing energy efficiency across buildings and infrastructure, installing the region’s largest airport rooftop solar power system at Terminal 2, introducing waste-to-compost systems and transitioning airside vehicles to biodiesel-blended fuel.
