ANA Holdings Partners with Axelspace and JAXA to Monitor Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Space

ANA Holdings has partnered with Axelspace, JAXA, Meisei Electric, and JIJ to develop a satellite-based CO2 emissions tracking system. The project, funded by JAXA’s Space Strategy Fund, aims to provide accurate emissions estimates in complex urban environments. ANA Holdings will test the sensors in real-world conditions using its commercial flight network. The demonstration satellite is planned for launch between 2030 and 2032. This initiative builds on Japan’s legacy in greenhouse gas observation, with the goal of unlocking high-frequency, high-resolution observation data.
