Environmental Promotion Structure

Kansai Airports Group has established an environmental promotion system to promote group-wide environmental activities.
Under the Group Environmental Promotion Committee (chaired by the CEO and Co-CEO), which consists of the heads of divisions and group companies, each division and group company implements the action plans it has formulated and regularly assesses and reports on them to improve its initiatives.
We are also promoting environmental initiatives in cooperation with airport-related businesses through the Airport Environmental Promotion Councils of the three airports and the Airport Decarbonization Promotion Councils established by the airport administrator.
