Smart Freight Centre (SFC) Exchange Network — Published a Proof of Concept (PoC) Evaluation Report, a first step in establishing the SFC Exchange Network to promote data sharing between transport value chain actors and increase carbon transparency. The report assessed three key criteria: the feasibility of technical implementation, peer-to-peer data exchange, and willingness to share data. It also explored options for future governance and assurance frameworks. The results show the need for future efforts in the industry and the PoC “provided a momentum and promising results to continue towards a full build.” CEF members Amazon and Dow are participants and contributors, and CEF member McKinsey is a knowledge partner. (Aug 2023)
Airports of Tomorrow — This initiative, launched by World Economic Forum with Airports Council International, aims to overhaul global airports to enable net-zero aviation. It brings together more than 50 CEOs from “the aviation ecosystem” to mobilize capital needed to transform airports into clean energy hubs, electrify airport operations, and scale up at least 300 Sustainable Aviation Fuel plants by 2030. CEF members include Bank of America, Boeing, Honeywell, and McKinsey & Co. (July 2023)
FRONTIER — Facilitated a set of offtake agreements with Charm Industrial. This $53 million deal will sequester 112,000 tons of CO2 from the atmosphere between 2024 and 2030, storing it underground. Charm collects waste biomass from agriculture or forest management and, through pyrolysis, converts it into a bio-oil that will be injected permanently into regulated wells. The amount contracted is about ten times the amount of permanent atmospheric removal worldwide thus far and about 18 times more than Charm has sequestered to date via pilot processes. (May 2023)
The Open for Business Coalition, made up of 34 global companies, denounced anti-LGBTQ legislation passed by Uganda's parliament last week, warning it would curb investment flows, deter tourists, undermine companies’ ability to hire a diverse workforce, and damage the country's economy.

Navigating America’s Net-Zero Frontier: A Guide for Business Leaders (McKinsey & Company) — Provides guidance for business leaders to create effective strategies for achieving net-zero commitments within the context of the United States government’s goal to reach net-zero emissions by 2050. Authors encourage leaders to imagine “where their business would stand in a net-zero economy” that favors low-emissions goods and services, and how they could realize opportunities by “overhauling” their business models, including portfolio transformation, green business building, premiums on green attributes, and decarbonized operations. The analysis (May 2022):
- Maps emission sources and models a pathway for the U.S. to address its 7.2 billion metric tons of annual GHG emissions, including retrofitting facilities and infrastructure, decarbonizing transportation, and replacing 60% of the natural gas now in use with zero-carbon energy sources.
- Suggests that “transformation of every sector” will be required for the U.S. to meet a 1.5C scenario and highlights five climate solutions with enormous potential for both emissions abatement and economic growth through 2025: renewable power, electrification, operational efficiency, clean fuels, and carbon capture.
- Describes macro trends to help companies anticipate risks and opportunities, such as the accelerating deployment of tech and infrastructure to enable climate solutions, and declining costs that suggest “organizations could presently abate some 40 percent of US GHG emissions at no net additional cost.”

Notably, as emphasized on the Frontier website, “Frontier aims to help create net new carbon removal supply rather than compete over what exists today.” Other companies are encouraged to participate.
