From India to Australia, California to Germany, airports are installing vast solar arrays across terminal rooftops, parking structures, and unused land. These installations range from supplementary power sources to full-scale systems capable of meeting an airport’s entire energy demand.
As airports around the world embrace solar energy, they are proving that large-scale renewable power systems are vital for the future of airport infrastructure. These advancements are paving the way for greener, more efficient airports globally, showcasing the transformative power of solar energy.
The transformation of airports through solar power goes beyond an environmental initiative—it demonstrates the potential of large-scale solar installations. By incorporating solar energy, airports can achieve significant energy cost reductions, with estimates ranging from 40-60%.
Some of the basic studies/assessments airports need to consider while selecting a site for the solar PV plant are- • Availability of space • Availability of solar resource & climatic condition of the site • Site’s ability to comply with aviation specific requirements etc. 2.1.
