From powering terminal buildings to operating crucial navigation systems, running baggage handling equipment to maintaining comfortable climate control, airports represent some of the most energy-intensive facilities in the transportation sector. The numbers tell a compelling story.
The same principles that make airport solar installations successful apply to commercial and residential projects, just on a different scale. Climate Control Systems (HVAC) Primary Energy Consumer: HVAC systems dominate terminal energy use, requiring constant operation to maintain precise temperatures across massive spaces.
The aviation industry faces mounting pressure to reduce its environmental impact, with ground operations presenting an immediate opportunity for meaningful change. Solar installations at airports serve multiple purposes: they reduce operational costs, provide energy independence, and demonstrate a commitment to sustainability.
Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, the busiest airport globally, uses enough electricity to power 100,000 average American homes. These energy needs continue to grow as air travel expands, with global passenger numbers expected to double by 2040.
