Thanks to the strategic agreement signed between ADR and Eni, the new company ITA was able to use the SAF on some flights already; from the first day of commencement of operations. E & rsquo; a further acceleration of Aeroporti di Roma in terms of sustainability; after the Fiumicino airport obtained the largest airport in Europe as the first airport in Europe; high certification Airport Carbon Accreditation 4+ & ldquo; Transition & rdquo; of ACI Europe on the reduction of CO2, in line with the objective, declared last year and set in the Sustenaibility-Linked Bond issued last April, of zeroing its already greenhouse gas emissions; by 2030 , well in advance of the original sector targets.
