Acer, Cathay Cargo and Dimerco Join Forces to Reduce Carbon Emissions via Sustainable Aviation Fuel
Acer, Cathay Cargo, and Dimerco Express Group are collaborating to reduce carbon emissions in aviation through the use of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). Starting in 2024, Acer and Dimerco will support SAF use on Cathay Cargo flights as part of Acer's net-zero strategy. SAF, made from plant or animal materials, can reduce aviation's greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80%. This initiative is part of Cathay Pacific's Corporate SAF Programme, one of the first of its kind in Asia.
The collaboration aligns with Acer's Earthion sustainability platform and its commitment to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. Acer is also investing in smart solutions for carbon reduction, energy savings, and productivity improvements, including e-mobility and energy storage solutions. The company began using biofuel solutions for sea logistics in Q4 2022 and is accelerating its actions towards net-zero carbon emissions.
Acer, Cathay Cargo e Dimerco Express Group stanno collaborando per ridurre le emissioni di carbonio nel settore aereo attraverso l'uso di biocarburanti sostenibili (SAF). A partire dal 2024, Acer e Dimerco sosterranno l'uso dei SAF sui voli di Cathay Cargo come parte della strategia di riduzione delle emissioni nette di Acer. I SAF, realizzati con materiali vegetali o animali, possono ridurre le emissioni di gas serra dell'aviazione fino all'80%. Questa iniziativa fa parte del Programma Corporate SAF di Cathay Pacific, uno dei primi del suo genere in Asia.
La collaborazione è allineata alla piattaforma di sostenibilità Earthion di Acer e al suo impegno per raggiungere emissioni nette zero entro il 2050. Acer sta anche investendo in soluzioni intelligenti per la riduzione del carbonio, il risparmio energetico e il miglioramento della produttività, inclusi e-mobility e soluzioni di accumulo energetico. L'azienda ha iniziato a utilizzare soluzioni di biocarburante per la logistica marittima nel quarto trimestre del 2022 e sta accelerando le sue azioni verso emissioni di carbonio nette zero.
