ANA expands SAF programme with Chooose

All Nippon Airways (ANA) and Norwegian software company Chooose have expanded their partnership through an agreement to enhance ANA's Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) Flight Initiative's Corporate and Cargo programmes. The expanded collaboration aims to make it easier for corporate customers to participate in the programmes while supporting wider adoption of SAF.

The ANA Group aims to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050, with the adoption of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) forming a key part of its strategy. Through the SAF Flight Initiative (SFI), ANA and Chooose will continue to expand the programme in collaboration with their stakeholders.

Under the expanded agreement, ANA will integrate Chooose's digital platform into the SFI Corporate and Cargo programmes. The platform will enable participating companies to calculate and track CO₂ emissions from their ANA flights and cargo shipments, purchase the environmental attributes associated with SAF use to support Scope 3 emissions reductions, and obtain CO₂ reduction certificates through an online process.

The expanded programme removes minimum purchase requirements and fixed contract terms, allowing clients to purchase environmental attributes in quantities starting from one metric tonne without signing a separate agreement for each transaction. This is expected to make participation simpler and more accessible to a wider range of corporate partners.

ANA and Chooose will work together to expand the SFI programme in Japan and overseas, collaborating with stakeholders to support the wider adoption of SAF.

“We are pleased to strengthen our partnership with Chooosethrough this comprehensive agreement. By enhancing the Corporate and Cargo Programs under our SFI, we aim to make participation more convenient for our customers and encourage broader adoption of SAF. Together with our customers and partners, we will continue to advance this co-creation model and work toward achieving the ANA's group goal of net-zero GHG emissions by 2050,” said Terakawa Naohiro, Executive Vice President, All Nippon Airways.

“Earlier this year, ANA partnered with Chooose to provide individual travellers with an opportunity to participate in SAF adoption. This expanded partnership builds on that collaboration by enhancing ANA's existing SFI for corporate and cargo customers, while also supporting the integration of ANA's internal SAF operations onto the Chooose platform. We are honored to continue working with ANA to support the expansion of SAF adoption,” said Joseph Beaudin, CEO, Chooose.
