Avia Solutions Group, a provider of Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance, and Insurance (ACMI) services, has entered a partnership with DHL Express aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions from international shipments through the use of sustainable aviation fuel.
The collaboration utilises DHL's GoGreen Plus service, which enables customers to reduce their Scope 3 emissions by incorporating Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) into their logistics operations. 
Through the GoGreen Plus Basic Model, Avia Solutions Group has achieved a 12.61% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions associated with DHL shipments, equating to 30.6 tonnes of emissions saved between January and April 2025.
The partnership encompasses multiple subsidiaries within Avia Solutions Group across various sub-sectors, reflecting what the company describes as a group-wide commitment to sustainable operations.
Jonas Janukenas, Chief Executive Officer of Avia Solutions Group, said: "By utilizing SAF for our large-scale logistics needs, we can prove the viability of this approach and nudge other aviation companies to take bold steps in order to minimise their environmental impact."
Mindaugas Pivoriunas, Managing Director at DHL Express Lithuania, added: "We are proud to support Avia Solutions Group in their commitment to reducing GHG emissions across their extensive network.
The aviation industry's path to net-zero requires collaborative efforts, and the wide adoption of GoGreen Plus shows the willingness of world-leading aviation players to fully embrace more sustainable practices."
DHL's GoGreen Plus service facilitates emissions reduction through SAF, which is produced from alternative feedstock such as used cooking oil or waste materials. According to DHL, SAF can reduce emissions by approximately 80% on average compared to conventional jet fuel across its lifecycle.
The service forms part of DHL Group's broader commitment to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.
To make this possible, DHL Express has established strategic partnerships with major SAF producers, including agreements with bp and Neste to supply over 800 million litres of SAF to the DHL Express network, with expectations to save approximately two million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions over the aviation fuel lifecycle.
