    IATA updates CO2 Connect to include emissions reduction from SAF usage.

    The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has introduced improvements to its CO2 Connect tool, now incorporating the ability to account for CO2 emissions reductions derived from the use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). This update follows the release of IATA's SAF Accounting and Reporting Methodology, which establishes the guidelines for including SAF in passenger emissions data.

    With this enhancement, CO2 Connect will apply a uniform reduction in CO2 emissions per passenger across the entire airline network, meaning that all flights will equally benefit from the reduction based on the total SAF purchases made. In future versions of the tool, this reduction will be assignable to specific routes, providing a more detailed breakdown of the SAF benefits.

      "Businesses and travelers are increasingly interested in understanding the environmental impact of their flights. In particular, those who have invested in SAF want to clearly understand its effect on emission reductions. By integrating SAF methodology into CO2 Connect, we are responding to the demand for transparency and accuracy," explained Frederic Leger, Senior Vice President of Commercial Products and Services at IATA.

      The tool, which already uses real operational data such as fuel consumption by aircraft type, has seen a growing number of airlines contributing their data. With the recent addition of Air India, Air Astana, Air Europa, Amelia, Clic Air, Corsair, Hi Fly, Oman Air, Plus Ultra Líneas Aéreas, and Royal Air Maroc, the number of participating airlines in CO2 Connect has reached 60. This expansion, IATA notes, improves the accuracy of the calculations and provides more transparency to both travelers and businesses.

      "Thanks to the continued support of participating airlines and the new capability to accurately account for SAF, CO2 Connect continues to gain momentum as an essential tool for the decarbonization of aviation," added Leger.
