Wipro Enlisted by JFK International Air Terminal to Meet Sustainability Targets

EAST BRUNSWICK, N.J. | BENGALURU, India – Sep. 05, 2024: Wipro Limited (NYSE: WIT, BSE: 507685, NSE: WIPRO), a leading technology services and consulting company, has been enlisted* by JFK International Air Terminal (JFKIAT) - the operator of JFK’s Terminal 4 - to help meet its net zero targets.

Wipro Consulting’s sustainability practice was selected by JFKIAT to assess the Terminal’s greenhouse gas emissions, develop a carbon reduction roadmap, and create its 2023 sustainability report aligned with JFKIAT's sustainability targets. JFKIAT’s target is to reduce their Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 50% prior to 2030 and by 100% prior to 2050. Wipro’s work centered across three main pillars:

Measure: The Wipro team measured JFKIAT’s Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions through a greenhouse gas inventory, aligned to industry standards (including the Airport Carbon Accreditation (ACA) standard). The team captured additional emissions sources from previous inventories (i.e., stationary combustion, fugitive emissions, and mobile combustion) to provide an accurate view of JFKIAT’s footprint and identify reduction opportunities. 

Reduce: The Wipro Consulting sustainability practice, Wipro Impact, produced a carbon reduction roadmap, including investment priorities in energy efficiency measures and a renewable energy sourcing strategy. The roadmap provided JFKIAT with the steps to meet its 2030 50% reduction target and set them up on a path to achieve their 100% reduction target by 2050. JFKIAT implemented the renewable energy sourcing strategy recommended by Wipro in late 2023, which allowed JFKIAT to reduce their baseline emissions by 16%.

Report: The Wipro Impact team developed JFKIAT’s 2023 sustainability report and worked with Designit, Wipro’s experience innovation company, which designed JFKIAT’s annual report, showcasing the company’s 2023 results and priorities.

“Our partnership with JFKIAT spearheaded our focus in sustainable airports, with the creation of Wipro's airport decarbonization strategies and ACA digitized report accelerator," Susan Kenniston, Vice President & Global Head Sustainability Domain & Consulting, Wipro Limited. “As airports’ focus on sustainability increases, our learnings and accelerators will be instrumental in helping clients build hyper-connected, intelligent airports that will help them better manage their impact as passenger volumes continue to increase.”

“We are proud to lead the way in sustainability across the aviation industry, and thanks to our work with the Wipro team, these strategic measures will help JFKIAT continue to reduce our overall emissions,” said Roel Huinink, CEO, JFKIAT. “Sustainability is at the heart of JFKIAT’s mission, and we look forward to continuing this partnership with Wipro as we advance our efforts to combat climate change and cultivate a greener, environmentally friendly terminal.”

*This deal was mentioned in Wipro Limited's financial results announcement press release, dated October 18, 2023, for the quarter-ended September 30, 2023, with a description of JFKIAT, but without naming the company.
