Green Airports Recognition 2021
15 June 2021
On 1 June, the Airport Authority (AA) received a Gold Recognition in the “Over 25 million passengers per annum” category at the Airports Council International Asia-Pacific Green Airports Recognition 2021 for its Phase 1 of the Ground Services Equipment (GSE) Polling Scheme. The Scheme centralised the provision and management of shared-use GSE for rental use of ramp handling operators. It helps enhance operational efficiency, and reduce air and carbon emissions at the airport. In Phase 1, over 250 critical GSE were procured, of which 95% are electric-powered. Commencing in April 2022, the Phase 2 of the Scheme will increase the size of GSE fleet to 580.
