Abstract

The article focuses on the collaboration between ANA Holdings Inc., Japan's largest airline, and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) to enhance greenhouse gas emissions monitoring using sensors on commercial jets. Since 2020, these sensors have been tested and are now operational on a modified Boeing 737, aiming to provide more precise measurements of gases like carbon dioxide compared to satellite data. ANA and JAXA plan to equip additional aircraft with similar technology and explore potential revenue generation from the data collected. This initiative is part of a broader effort to improve emissions monitoring as regulatory demands increase, complementing existing satellite tools with more localized data, particularly in urban areas.
