The recognised award was the result of a number of initiatives, including LED lighting and PIR motion sensors, by London Luton Airport that have led to a reduction in carbon tonnage associated with electricity use. In the last CRC Energy Efficiency Scheme reporting year, London Luton Airport reduced emissions by 342 CO2 tonnes despite continued passenger growth and the airport’s ongoing £100m development project.

This is the third international standard that LLA has achieved in two years, receiving certification for its commitment to environmental management in 2013 (ISO 14001:2004) and certification for health and safety management standards (BS OHSAS I8001:2007) in 2014.

Simon Bown, Senior Manager – Health, Safety & Environment at London Luton Airport said: “The achievement of these three certifications has taken years of dedicated work and the accreditation for energy management puts LLA amongst only a handful of Airport Operators in the world. We’ll continue to work hard to reduce our environmental impact as the Airport continues to grow in terms of passengers and new routes.”
