132 O N E R E P O R T 2 0 2 2 OVERVIEW BUSINESS OVERVIEW AND PERFORMANCE CORPORATE GOVERNANCE FINANCIAL INFORMATION SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT Scope 1 Emissions Thai AirAsia’s disclosure of Scope 1 emissions does not include ground operations. Fuel usage for flight operations is calculated using the CORSIA Block-On, Block-Off methodology. The Company evaluates GHG emissions in accordance with Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization standards and calculates emissions by referencing the ICAO standard Emission Factor. In the future, Thai AirAsia plans to upgrade its transport vehicles and parking devices to electrical operation to further reduce carbon emissions. The Company is studying the feasibility of this aspiration and consulting with future stakeholders. GHG Emission Data Scope 2 Emissions Thai AirAsia’s Scope 2 disclosures cover emissions associated with energy consumption of main base facilities (Don Mueang) (Other hubs and stations are not included.) Thai AirAsia evaluates and estimates greenhouse gas emission in accordance with Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organisation (TGO) standards.
