Adding another feather to its cap, the GMR Hyderabad InternationalAirportLtd’s (GHIAL) Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (RGIA) has bagged the ISO 14064 -1: 2006 certification for its Greenhouse Gas (GHG) inventory.

RGIA is the second airport in India, after Mumbai, and the third in Asia to have achieved this feat, that indicates the airport’s commitment towardsenvironmental issues. The audit of its GHG, which includes both Greenhousegas emissions and removals, was conducted by M/S Bureau Veritas that submitted its independent report on March 31.

The verification of GHG inventories will help the airport in reducing its carbon intensity, which is carbon footprint per passenger or per ton of cargo handled, cost of energy and meet the GHG accounting international norms in the aviation sector.
