Strategic report
REDUCING OUR
CARBON EMISSIONS
In July 2013, easyJet confirmed an order for
100 new generation Airbus A320neo aircraft
for delivery from 2017 to 2022 and has taken
purchase rights on a further 100 aircraft. The
aircraft will be equipped with new technology
engines, either the Pratt & Whitney PurePower
or CFM Leap – easyJet has yet to finalise
its selection.
The manufacturers expect that these new
generation aircraft, equipped with wing tip
“Sharklets”, will deliver between 13% to 15%
savings in fuel consumption and consequent
reductions in CO2 emissions.
Importantly, Airbus expects that as a
result of the use of new technology,
nitrogen oxide emissions will be 50%
below the CAEP/6 standard and that
noise levels will be up to 15dB below
the ICAO Chapter 4 standard.
The target is for the easyJet fleet to
comprise of approximately 35% new
generation A320neo aircraft by2022.
