At HeliOIS, we actively support the UN Sustainable Development Goals. We’re actively working to protect planet A – and we know what you’re thinking: How can a company working with fossil-fuelled aircraft talk about sustainable development? Here’s why. Installing, maintaining, and expanding offshore energy requires a lot of work and transportation. No matter if you use vessels or aircraft, this work is not sustainable. But if it didn’t get done, there would be no offshore energy, or it wouldn’t be very effective. Aviation is a key piece of the logistical puzzle in offshore energy. If a wind turbine breaks down, dispatching a service tech by helicopter is your best bet for getting it operational again quickly. That means more uptime for renewable energy sources, and it means that offshore aviation does contribute to Goal 13 (Climate action). At HeliOIS, we’re working to reduce our climate impact: We use airfields close to the shore to shorten flight distances. We use sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) when feasible. And because we know sustainability is about more than climate, we work with the UN SDGs in other ways: ➡ We support Goal 3 (Good health and well-being) by providing health insurance for our employees, and by supporting healthy lifestyle choices. Supporting Goal 9 (Industry, innovation and infrastructure) is at the heart of our DNA at HeliOIS: Our direct flights save time, cost and resources – and they increase crew efficiency. ➡ We work with cities, ports, and airports globally and always involve local staff. By doing so, we support Goal 11 (Sustainable cities and communities), and we respect diverse cultures. ➡ We support Goal 17 (Partnerships for the goals) by seeking cooperation, creating networks and relations that strengthen our joint efforts. Sustainable development is an ongoing process, and we all need to keep pushing for improvement. Call us to learn more about our sustainability efforts at HeliOIS or to discover how efficient offshore aviation can be. …………….

HyFlux named as one of 16 innovators that are accelerating the aviation industry’s transition to net-zero by World Economic Forum Uplink and First Movers Coalition. To accelerate and support the transformation of aviation and expedite its journey to net-zero, UpLink - World Economic Forum , and the First Movers Coalition have launched the Sustainable Aviation Innovation Challenge to identify and accelerate the most innovative and promising start-ups in this sector. With 130 high-quality submissions received from around the globe, 16 Top Innovators were selected by industry partners to join the UpLink Innovation Ecosystem. To this end, we’re excited to announce we are part of the cohort of Sustainable Aviation Top Innovators to accelerate the development and adoption of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and other propulsion solutions, with the broader vision of enhancing the viability of promising start-ups in this space. Innovation ignites the spark, but collaboration fuels progress. Together with the other 15 innovators we are now plugged into World Economic Forum formal programming and a support ecosystem of industry partners and investors to scale up their ventures through business and technology collaborations. #sustainableaviation #davos #worldeconomicforum #uplinkatdavos #aerospace #hydrogen #nonCO2 #hydrogen

𝟯𝘁𝗶 𝗽𝗶𝗰𝗸𝘀 𝘂𝗽 𝗦𝗶𝗹𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗮𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 '𝗡𝗲𝘁 𝗭𝗲𝗿𝗼 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗶𝗼𝗻' What another fantastic achievement for #papilio3 and the 3ti team. We would like to congratulate all the award winners and Engineering Matters for a great night. Ben Marchant, COO and Clare Slaven, Head of Marketing collected the Silver Award for Net Zero Champion, adding to a growing collection of industry-leading awards. Papilio3 was developed by 3ti to boost the roll out of EV charging infrastructure and to help #decarbonise the transport sector. The Engineering Matters Net Zero Champion awards recognise projects, processes, and tools that make a real contribution to reducing carbon emissions. #NetZero will require new #technology to eliminate carbon emissions. It will also require smarter planning of projects and supply chains, and new tools to accurately predict, measure and report emissions.
