Riyadh Airports Company launches KKIA Energy Efficiency
The project will provide the best solutions to reduce energy demand and costs, ensure reliable supply through clean and renewable energy sources.
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.
Solar, wind, and wave energies are prominent and rapidly advancing renewable energy sources in airports. China excels in solar collector and solar PV installations, while the USA leads in wind energy projects. Japan, Korea, and Australia demonstrate notable progress in solar PV and wave energy technologies.
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 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%.
