The Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (RGIA), Hyderabad has achieved carbon neutral status. It is the first in the Asia-Pacific region in the 5-15 million passengers per annum category to attain this status.
In a press release, GMR Hyderabad International Airport Ltd, a GMR Group-led consortium, which manages and operates the airport, also claimed that it is the second airport among all categories in the Asia-Pacific region to achieve carbon neutral status.
Earlier in September, 2016 GMR Group-led Delhi Airport had become the first airport in Asia-Pacific to achieve carbon neutral status among all categories.
Airports Council International (ACI) has certified Hyderabad International Airport with Level 3+, Neutrality under its Airport Carbon Accreditation programme. It is the industry standard for assessment of airports' efforts to manage and reduce carbon emissions and a significant achievement, said SGK Kishore, CEO of GHIAL.
