ATR received a B-score from CDP Climate Change for the second consecutive year. This recognition comes as we continue to progress our low-carbon strategy,  reinforcing our commitment to transparency and sustainability in the aviation industry.   

Pierre Farjounel, ATR’s CISO and Head of future developments, commented: “Securing a B score for the second year in a row highlights our unwavering commitment to embedding sustainability  into every facet of our operations. This is not just a societal expectation; it’s what our customers demand. By championing transparency and accountability, we’re building trust and driving real change throughout our entire ecosystem.”  

ATR is committed to achieving by 2030 a 50% reduction of absolute greenhouse gas emissions related to operational processes and energy consumption (Scope 1 and Scope 2), in line with the 1.5°C trajectory outlined in the Paris Agreement. Within the same timeframe, we are committed to reducing by 30% the absolute GHG emissions generated by our in-service aircraft fleet (Scope 3 – use of sold products). The baseline for both targets is 2018, and those objectives have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) in 2023. 

Formerly known as the ‘Carbon Disclosure Project’, CDP scores are regarded as a global benchmark for evaluating companies’ efforts to lower and mitigate the impact of their activities on the environment and climate change. The scoring system, ranging from A to F, assesses the comprehensiveness of disclosures and the effectiveness of an organisation’s environmental risk mitigation performance. Additional criteria include environmental awareness and leadership and the organisation’s record of setting ambitious, meaningful environmental objectives. ATR’s participation contributes to the most extensive inventory of self-reported environmental data in the world, helping drive action against climate change through greater transparency.
