Air & logistics united for net zero


It takes two to tango - in carbon reduction as well. Etihad Cargo, the cargo and logistics arm of Etihad Aviation Group, is partnering with DSV Global Transport and Logistics to purchase sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) to compensate for the carbon emissions of its cargo shipment.

 

Via the book and claim system, Etihad Cargo facilitated DSV's SAF purchase, enabling the transport and logistics provider to offset CO2 emissions and reduce non-CO2 climate impact.

 

Etihad Cargo transported DSV's cargo shipment from Washington Dulles to Abu Dhabi on Etihad's first transatlantic net zero flight on 13 November 2022.

 

Etihad's Boeing 787 "Greenliner" combined SAF with contrail prevention technology from its partner, Satavia, to actively manage carbon emissions and other climate effects from contrails, or condensation trails, which cause surface warming and are responsible for up to two-thirds of aviation's climate impact.
