It was one of five awards daa was shortlisted for.
 
"We are delighted to have won the Sustainability Team of the Year award at the 2024 Green Awards," said Andrea Carroll, daa’s Group Head of Sustainability. "This recognition highlights our ongoing commitment to reducing our carbon emissions and working towards a more sustainable future for our airports. Our Sustainability Team and wider colleagues working on sustainability across the business, along with our 150 sustainability ambassadors have been instrumental in embedding environmental sustainability across our business operations at home and abroad.”

"We are acutely aware of the scale of the task of achieving the government’s target of a 51% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions at our airports by 2030, the ones we have direct control over. We are fully committed to delivering on these targets while we work in tandem with our aviation stakeholders to support the aviation sector’s transition to a more sustainable model for the future and addressing our Scope 3 emissions.”
 
The Green Awards, launched in 2008, serve as a platform for promoting sustainability intelligence, leadership, and innovation amongst businesses in Ireland. The awards recognise companies that have made significant strides in environmental protection and sustainability practices.
