Q- StandardAero’s mission is to bring about a Carbon reduction of 45% net by the year 2030 and achieve zero carbon level by the year 2050? How do you plan to accomplish it, and what are the measures taken in this regard by StandardAero?
Ans – StandardAero has a long history of promoting and providing environmental protection as part of its operations around the world. In fact, over the last 40 years, we have through our facility redesign and optimizations, reduced water consumption by over one billion gallons and significantly reduced hazardous waste generation. Our Carbon reduction goals of 45% net by the year 2030 and zero carbon level by the year 2050 is part of our enhanced commitment to the world we serve. The actions we will take to reduce our carbon footprint will be associated with our production life cycle. This includes the resources and services required for production (e.g. materials/consumables, logistics, etc.), operational efficiency (e.g. facility rationalization and optimization, process improvements, etc.), and reduced/zero carbon logistics within operations and product shipments to our customers.
