Pratt & Whitney (P&W) has launched a carbon offset service for operators of P&W-powered business jets with engines enrolled in its Eagle Service Plan (ESP) maintenance program. Through this carbon credit program, operators can offset their aircraft’s carbon footprint and thus become more sustainable.
“Pratt & Whitney has a long-standing commitment to offering environmentally responsible products and solutions to its customers—from being one of the first companies to certify its engines for use with sustainable aviation fuels to finding ways to minimize the impact of its operations and engines on the environment throughout their entire lifecycle,” said P&W v-p of customer service Satheeshkumar Kumarasingam.
Under this program, South Pole, a globally recognized provider of environmentally sustainable solutions, will estimate and compensate aircraft emissions for the customer, making the service convenient and transparent. Customers pay service charges on their ESP invoice based on flown hours and also receive a certificate confirming that their carbon emissions have been offset.
P&W parent company Raytheon Technologies has also committed to offsetting emissions of its corporate aircraft fleet.
