Climate Change and Sustainability• Sustainability is an integral part
of our company vision “representing our country” and is inherent in our new branding.
• Comprehensive five year sustainability action plan covering fourteen key areas of our environmental, social and economic performance.
• First sustainability report FY07 included public disclosure of our carbon footprint.
• Responded to the Carbon Disclosure Project 2007 and 2008.
Operate in a safe, secure, sustainable and efficient
manner
The Principles of Carbon Accounting RELEVANCE Ensure inventory appropriately reflects the emissions of the company and serves the decision-making needs of users – both internal and external to the company.
COMPLETENESS Account for and report on all emission sources and activities within the chosen inventory boundary. Disclose and justify any specific exclusions.
CONSISTENCY Use consistent methodologies. Transparently document any changes to the data, inventory boundary, methods, or any other relevant factors in the time series.
TRANSPARENCY Address all relevant issues in a factual and coherent manner, based on a clear audit trail. Disclose any relevant assumptions and make appropriate references to the accounting and calculation methodologies and data sources used.
ACCURACY Ensure that the quantification of GHG emissions is neither under or overstated and that uncertainties are reduced as far as practicable. Achieve sufficient accuracy to enable users to make decisions with reasonable assurance as to the integrity of the reported information.
Carbon Accounting StandardsTwo standards available:
ISO14064-1 “Specification with guidance at the organizational level for quantification and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions and removals” 2006.
www.iso.org
“Greenhouse Gas Protocol - A Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard Revised” World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) and World Resources Institute (WRI) 2007
www.ghgprotocol.org
Carbon Accounting MethodologySetting Organizational BoundariesEquity share approachUnder the equity share approach, a company accounts for GHG emissions from operations according to its share of equity in the operation.
Control approachUnder the control approach, a company accounts for 100 percent of the GHG emissions from operations over which it has control (financial or operational).
Setting Operational BoundariesHave to be comprehensive with respect to:Direct GHG emissions - emissions from sources that are owned or controlled by the company.Indirect GHG emissions - emissions that are a consequence of the activities of the company but occur at sources owned or controlled by another company.
Carbon Accounting Methodology
Scope 1: Direct GHG emissionsDirect GHG emissions occur from sources that are owned or controlled by the company, for example, emissions from combustion in owned or controlled boilers, furnaces, vehicles.
Scope 2: Electricity indirect GHG emissionsScope 2 accounts for GHG emissions from the generation of purchased electricity consumed by the company. Purchased electricity is defined as electricity that is purchased or otherwise brought into the organizational boundary of the company. Scope 2 emissions physically occur at the facility where electricity is generated.
Scope 3: Other indirect GHG emissions
An optional reporting category that allows for the treatment of all other indirect emissions. Scope 3 emissions are a consequence of the activities of the company, but occur from sources not owned or controlled by the company. Some examples of scope 3 activities are extraction and production of purchased materials; transportation of purchased fuels; and use of sold products and services.

KPI/Targets/Carbon NeutralityKPI • Has to be based on emissions intensity to allow for growth:
• CO2/pax• CO2/aircraft movement
Targets• Auckland Airport has a target of a 10% reduction in emissions per
international passenger by 2012 (Adjusted FY06 base year).
Carbon Neutrality • Auckland Airport signed the ACI declaration on climate change in
April 2008. • Working towards carbon neutrality.• Proceeding with caution (Inclusion/exclusion of scope 3 could be
significant, NZ ETS, price of carbon, carbon neutral status of fuel and energy purchased).
Drivers/Initiatives/Next StepsDrivers• Representing Our Country - a sustainable destination• Negative public perception of aviation/climate change and air travel
potential negative impact• New Zealand Sustainable Tourism Strategy 2015• Company stakeholder expectations
Initiatives/Next Steps• GPU have been installed to allow airlines to switch off APU• CAT III lighting installed to ensure landings even in fog conditions
(reducing diverts and fuel burn)• Operational efficiency improvements assisting with OTP• Work with Auckland Regional Transport Authority to further improve
public transport to the airport• Development of our travel plan to improve surface access for employees
and passengers.
Drivers/Initiatives/Next StepsInitiatives/Next Steps• Pro-active energy conservation group• Energy audit underway and energy management plan that will be shared
with retailers and tenants• Continue to produce annual profile• Continue to respond to CDP• Continue to investigate emissions from construction as an indicator for
the sustainable development of airport infrastructure• Produce a whole of airport operations profile (including LTO emissions) • Put Auckland Airports’ profile in the context of “the whole airport
operations” • An airport company with a 10,000 tonne profile may only contribute 5%
of total emissions therefore whole of airport profile could be 200,000 tonnes p.a. - offsetting the 5% could be seen as greenwash.
• Continue to investigate best practice and benchmarking.
