Nadi International Airport has achieved Level 2 Airport Carbon Accreditation from Airports Council International this week.

Fiji Airports Executive Chair Faiz Khan says this latest achievement is a testimony of Nadi International Airport’s positive contribution towards the mitigation of climate change.

Khan says Nadi International Airport has received two major ACI recognitions within the space of a month, which is a fantastic achievement by the entire team at Fiji Airports.

He says they hope to achieve Level 3 or even Level 3+ in the future.

Khan adds that the transformed and modern Nadi International Airport has a state of the art Building Management System, LED lights and there is more focus on natural light throughout the terminal.

The Airport Carbon Accreditation is a global carbon management programme. It independently assesses and recognises airports’ efforts to manage and reduce their carbon emissions.

Meanwhile, there are four different levels of accreditation: Mapping, Reduction, Optimisation and Neutrality.
