ANA Announces Carbon Dioxide Removal Purchase from 1PointFive
01 Agosto 2023 - 09:30AM
All Nippon Airways (ANA), Japan’s largest and 5-Star airline for 10
consecutive years, today announced a CDR credit purchase agreement
with 1PointFive, a carbon capture, utilization and sequestration
company based in Houston, Texas. ANA becomes the first airline in
the world to sign a purchase agreement with 1PointFive, further
strengthening its commitment to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.
This purchase aligns with ANA's broader climate transition
strategy, which focuses on reducing emissions through operational
and infrastructure improvements and Sustainable Aviation Fuel, as
well as removing residual emissions through Direct Air Capture.
The ANA Group’s climate transition strategies
for achieving carbon neutrality in fiscal 2050 is focused around 4
approaches, and the agreement with 1PointFive is positioned to
advance the utilization of negative emissions technologies (NETs).
Beginning in 2025, 1PointFive has agreed to sell 10,000 metric
tonnes of CDR credits per year for three years enabled by Stratos,
1PointFive’s Direct Air Capture (DAC) plant currently under
construction in Texas, which is expected to be commercially
operational in mid-2025. 1PointFive is using Carbon Engineering’s
DAC technology which is designed to capture and remove large
volumes of carbon dioxide (CO2) directly from the atmosphere and
provide a practical solution to address emissions from
hard-to-decarbonize activities such as aviation and transportation.
The CO2 captured for ANA will be sequestered in saline reservoirs
that are not used for oil and gas production.
“Direct Air Capture is a vital and scalable
carbon removal technology that is necessary to help society achieve
net zero,” said Michael Avery, President, 1PointFive. “We are proud
that 1PointFive is able to support a leading airline like ANA in
their purchase of our high-quality carbon removal credits to
advance their climate strategy. The aviation industry can uniquely
benefit from DAC as a pathway to removing carbon emissions
securely, practically and on a large-scale.”
“Reaching our goal of carbon neutrality is one
of the key priorities for ANA, and we are actively diversifying our
methods to pursue sustainability,” said Shinichi Inoue, President
and CEO of ANA. “As we continue to review and invest in sustainable
and innovative technologies and processes that help further our
mission, we look forward to seeing the positive impact that
partnering with 1PointFive brings to our airline.”
The ANA Group is committed to reaching carbon
neutrality by 2050 and continues to proactively pursue sustainable
and innovative technologies to contribute to the realization of a
carbon-neutral society.
