The Airport is moving to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by joining the Airport Carbon Accreditation programme since 2019
Achieving Level 4 of the ACA marks a strategic shift in scale for the platform. This new milestone commits Bordeaux Aéroport to a strategy of absolute reduction of its greenhouse gas emissions over the long term.
To accelerate this decarbonization, a multi-lever strategy is being deployed, centered around two major axes:
Increased energy efficiency across all infrastructures.
Renewable energy production (geothermal and photovoltaic) to meet the needs of both the airport and the local territory.
Beyond decarbonizing its own infrastructure, Bordeaux Aéroport acts as an accelerator for the transition of its entire ecosystem. To unite the various stakeholders of the platform (airlines, service providers, retailers, transporters, and industrial partners), a Partnership Charter has been created.
The Airport Carbon Accreditation (ACA) program, managed by ACI World, is the only global carbon emissions management standard specific to the airport sector.
Through a rigorous methodology and independent audits, this certification guarantees the transparency and credibility of the commitments made, placing Bordeaux Aéroport on the global trajectory for decarbonizing air transport.
