Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation CORSIA

The Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) is a pioneering global initiative established by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) to mitigate CO₂ emissions from international aviation. As the first sector-specific, market-based measure, CORSIA aims to achieve carbon-neutral growth in aviation from 2020 onwards.

Compliance Obligations

A Global Framework for Aviation Emission Compliance

Airlines are required to monitor, report, and verify their CO₂ emissions annually. CORSIA Phase 1 emissions exceeding 85% of 2019 baseline must be offset through the purchase of CORSIA-eligible emission units or the use of sustainable aviation fuels that meet CORSIA criteria.

We offer specialized services to assist airlines in navigating CORSIA compliance

1

Emissions Monitoring and Reporting

Implementing robust systems to accurately track and report emissions.

2

Offset Strategy Development

Guiding the procurement of eligible emission units and sustainable fuels.

3

Regulatory Consultation

Providing insights into evolving CORSIA requirements and ensuring adherence to international standards.

CORSIA Timeline

Pilot Phase (2021–2023)
Voluntary participation by member states, allowing early adopters to familiarize themselves with the scheme's mechanisms.
First Phase (2024–2026)
Continued voluntary participation, with an increasing number of states committing to emission offsetting, already more than 126 States.
Second Phase (2027–2035)
Mandatory participation for states meeting specific aviation activity thresholds, ensuring widespread compliance.

We support airlines to achieve high quality CORSIA offsets

Project Sourcing

Identifying and vetting high-quality carbon offset projects aligned with CORSIA standards.

Portfolio Management

Developing and managing a diversified portfolio of offset investments.

Impact Assessment

Measuring and reporting the environmental and social impacts of voluntary offset initiatives.
