Our commitment
CAE remains dedicated to taking proactive steps towards reducing its carbon footprint and addressing climate change through solutions that support our stakeholders' environmental strategies.
How are we addressing our carbon footprint?
At the heart of our strategy, CAE is helping to avoid the emission of hundreds of thousands of tonnes of CO2 each year by training pilots on simulators.
In 2020, CAE achieved carbon neutrality through emission reductions and investments in projects that offset its remaining annual carbon emissions.
CAE is also pursuing other measures to reduce its overall emissions, such as reducing its electricity consumption at its sites around the world and fuel used for live training flights at its academies.
Our investments
- Renewable energy certificates (RECs) in the countries where we operate, where available within market boundaries or from neighboring markets. As a member of the RE100, we select EAC aligned with their criteria of quality (e.g. Green-e, Guarantees of Origin, Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin).
- Greenhouse gas reduction projects, including wind energy projects in India and forest conservation in Canada.
