Environmental Compensation

Air travel remains one of the hardest-to-abate sources of Scope 3 emissions for businesses globally.

Through the Kenya Airways Environmental Compensation Program, you can turn your travel into measurable climate action by supporting locally produced Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). By enabling local SAF uplift, you or your organisation contributes to verifiable climate action that helps avoid Scope 3 emissions.

This program provides a transparent, credible pathway to reducing travel emission backed by measurable impact and local value creation.

Kenya Airways prioritises locally produced SAF for participating flights

A 2% SAF blend typically delivers approximately 1.6% lifecycle CO₂ emissions reduction compared to conventional jet fuel

SAF purchases are allocated using the mass balance system, ensuring transparent accounting

Your Impact

For every KES 1 million (~USD 8,000) contributed:
2,140 litres of SAF are uplifted
Approximately 5.9 metric tonnes of CO₂ are avoided on a lifecycle basis

Your Contribution

For every KES 1 million (~USD 8,000) = 2,140 litres of SAF uplifted = ~5.9 metric tonnes CO₂ avoided.
Purchases are allocated under the mass balance system.
