Revolutionizing Corporate Travel: Cirium and RouteZero partner to integrate Cirium’s EmeraldSky Flight Emissions system
Cirium and RouteZero have unveiled a pioneering partnership to integrate Cirium’s EmeraldSky, specifically designed for corporate travel.
Cirium and RouteZero have unveiled a pioneering partnership to integrate Cirium’s EmeraldSky, specifically designed for corporate travel. This innovative offering represents a major leap forward in enabling companies to monitor, improve and report their air travel emissions reductions with unmatched accuracy and transparency.
Historically, corporations estimated the environmental impact of their air travel programs using broad assumptions based on scheduled air services. These rough estimates hindered accurate emissions tracking, and the reduction of their carbon footprints, leading to costly offsetting. The new partnership between Cirium and RouteZero transforms this process by offering post-flight emissions monitoring and reporting via EmeraldSky. This service provides precise, actionable insights based on actual flown operations, including the specific aircraft used, load factors, and the fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Through this collaboration, corporations will benefit from highly accurate insights into their air travel emissions, powered by the EmeraldSky emissions system, which is applied after each flight. EmeraldSky is not just another methodology; it is a groundbreaking system that leverages exclusive data from the actual tail number of the aircraft used, incorporating critical details such as aircraft age, engine type, winglets, tarmac time, load factor and flight duration. Combined with our precise methodology tailored for the aviation and aerospace sectors, EmeraldSky has demonstrated an impressive accuracy margin of up to 99% of flown emissions compared to actual airline-recorded fuel and emissions measurements.
Dan Brown, CEO at RouteZero said: “Leading companies are making radical, proactive changes to the way they travel to enable them to meet their Net Zero goals. Deploying RouteZero, customers travel more miles to meet more customers whilst cutting emissions. Using the most robust and accurate data available, empowers travelers to get to their destination in the most sustainable way, whilst getting their companies closer to Net Zero. Decarbonization is possible if we work together.”
Jeremy Bowen, CEO at Cirium said: “The level of precision and accuracy of Cirium’s EmeraldSky CO2 emissions calculations for flights far exceeds estimates available today and leveraging this flight emission system via RouteZero enables corporations to fulfill their sustainability objectives faster and more cost effectively.”
This innovative service not only enhances the accuracy of emissions reporting but also helps corporations better align their travel practices with their sustainability initiatives. By leveraging Cirium’s comprehensive flight emissions data and RouteZero’s expertise in sustainability, RouteZero’s service powered by EmeraldSky sets a new standard for environmental stewardship in corporate travel management.
