CEBU Pacific (CEB) has partnered with South Pole to establish its climate strategy in line with its target toward a net zero carbon emission by 2025.
“Cebu Pacific supports global aviation’s goal of achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. With South Pole’s guidance and expertise, we will develop a robust plan of action to prioritize interventions for emission hotspots in our operations. This roadmap will consider and fuse together the tangible initiatives that we have already put in place, as well as plans that will contribute towards our aspirations of meeting aviation’s net-zero commitment,” said Mike Szucs, CEB chief executive officer.
The engagement with South Pole involves CEB going through the rigorous process of understanding the greenhouse gas emissions generated from its operations towards setting its near- and long-term emission reduction pathways.
CEB said this roadmap will build into its current decarbonization strategy, which includes its fleet modernization program, fuel efficiency measures, integration of sustainable aviation fuel into its operations, transition to electric vehicles and tapping renewable energy, among others.
South Pole will support CEB in scoping its activities to identify the relevant Scope 3 emissions from its upstream and downstream entire value chain.
“To drive a sustainable long-term recovery in the aviation industry, we must continue to facilitate global climate action to achieve net zero by 2050, and CEB is in a great position to lead this change. By placing climate at the center of its strategy, we are confident that CEB will make great strides in its climate journey, and we are proud to support CEB in achieving its sustainability goals,” said Shruti Singh, South Pole’s director of climate strategies for Asia Pacific.
South Pole is a leading climate company that develops projects and solutions needed to enable everyone, everywhere to make an impact on climate change.
