Low-carbon transition in smart city with sustainable airport energy
Through the optimal design on multivariables, such as biogas share, solar input, size and performance of the ground-source heat pumps, and the power-to-heat ratio of
By focusing on solar collectors, solar photovoltaic (PV), wind energy, wave energy, tidal energy, hydro energy, and geothermal energy, this study aims to comprehensively understand their characteristics, practical uses, and potential advancements in airport settings.
The transformation is already underway. 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.
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%.
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.
