The main sources include aircraft engines during takeoff, landing, and ground operations; auxiliary power units; ground support equipment; and facility operations such as heating and cooling systems.
It helps airlines identify opportunities for reducing fuel consumption, optimize flight routes for emissions reduction, ensure compliance with international emission standards, and potentially reduce operational costs through improved efficiency.
The audit evaluates aircraft noise during takeoff and landing, ground operations noise, engine testing noise, and the effectiveness of noise abatement procedures and community noise monitoring programs.
The audit team should include environmental specialists, aviation engineers, operations managers, air traffic control representatives, and potentially acoustic experts for noise-related assessments.
KPIs often include fuel consumption per passenger-kilometer, CO2 emissions per flight, compliance with local noise regulations, number of noise complaints received, and progress on noise reduction targets.
