CHOOOSE partners with BP to expand lower-carbon product offering across hard-to-abate sectors

CHOOOSE, a software company providing solutions to enable enterprises to build and manage decarbonization programs, has announced a partnership with BP aimed at expanding the CHOOOSE technology platform and its lower-carbon product offerings.

The collaboration will seek to enhance CHOOOSE’s solutions for the aviation sector, including by helping airlines to meet Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation compliance obligations, to scale sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) initiatives with advanced digital solutions, and more.

As part of the partnership, BP is making a strategic investment in CHOOOSE.

CHOOOSE provides a leading platform for aviation-carbon programs today, serving a broad range of airlines around the globe and making available a wide offering of carbon products from diverse suppliers.

Collaborating with BP expands this offering further.

CHOOOSE and BP will collaborate to support the aviation sector across a number of decarbonization initiatives—ranging from enabling airlines to plan and execute on CORSIA obligations to advancing the digital solutions needed to scale airline SAF programs.

The partnership positions CHOOOSE to build on its digital “one-stop shop” for aviation’s carbon needs.

CHOOOSE already enables airlines and air-freight companies to centrally manage the diverse components of their decarbonization journeys—ranging from multifaceted SAF programs to emission calculations and reporting, to compliance obligations.

The new partnership with BP will position CHOOOSE to expand on the existing breadth of lower-carbon products CHOOOSE offers to the aviation sector (for example, nature-based climate solutions, including carbon removals, for both compliance and voluntary purposes), as well as to expand its digital offerings to further support other hard-to-abate sectors like freight forwarding and shipping.

“BP is excited to partner with CHOOOSE to support the decarbonization journeys of hard-to-abate industries,” said Marisa Buchanan, BP’s senior vice president of low-carbon solutions. “We aim to help companies in the aviation, marine and freight sectors meet their compliance needs and voluntary sustainability goals through a combination of digital solutions and low-carbon product offerings.”

Andreea Moyes, Air BP’s sustainability senior manager, added, “This partnership strengthens our ability to support customers in areas such as CORSIA compliance and to explore pathways to scaling SAF programs. I am looking forward to working with an established industry partner such as CHOOOSE, as well as drawing on the wider expertise of colleagues across BP, to further support the aviation industry’s decarbonization ambitions.”

Joseph Beaudin, CHOOOSE’s chief customer officer, said, “CHOOOSE builds software to help large enterprises manage the increasing complexity of their decarbonization programs—this partnership integrates BP’s industry-leading supply of lower-carbon products into the CHOOOSE platform, enabling CHOOOSE to expand the range of compliance-related and voluntary products offered, and to deliver more seamless experiences for our customers.”
