• Monitor the effectiveness of the control system.

Software for Reducing CO2 Emissions in Air Routes

The Flight Optimizer Profile (FPO) is a software tool designed for pilots and flight operators that offers real-time, practical, and actionable advice to enhance flight efficiency, tailored to current conditions. By optimizing flight routes, the FPO reduces fuel consumption, leading to a decrease in greenhouse gas emissions from fuel combustion. On average, the software helps reduce annual fuel consumption by 1%, depending on aircraft type and airline policies.

With the adoption of the FPO in 2024 by approximately 2,000 aircraft, including those from some of the industry’s leading airlines, it is estimated that fuel savings amounted to 185,827,000 lbs, resulting in a CO2 reduction of 687,560,000 lbs during the reporting year.
