The Vienna Airport has improved not only its results, but also its energy performance indicators

28.07.2018

The Vienna International Airport has been able to significantly improve its environmental performance indicators since 2012 up to today. The fourth photovoltaic system of about 8,000 sqm of solar space will be built on site in 2018. As part of a research project with the Vienna University of Technology, the project will be the first of its kind. airport works on "Smart Airport City": Flughafen Wien AG today introduced new measures in its new report on sustainable development.

"Successful development shows that effective environmental management helps to become more productive, increase customer satisfaction and quality of service, improve energy consumption and respect for the environment and create positive social accents for employees.The Vienna Airport will continue to systematically invest in sustainable development strategy in the future.Our goal: become the most environmentally-friendly airport in Europe, "says Günther Ofner, CEO of Flughafen Wien AG

Urgent adaptation of necessary standards and technical regulations
Ofner continues:" In practice, the standards and regulations Technical specifications often thwart energy efficiency efforts: nearly 20,000 evacuation lights are lit 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and consume over 2 million kWh of electricity. electricity – even when there is no one in the building. When planning and implementing energy efficient buildings, you need to master a real obstacle course by conflicting standards and technical regulations.

Improvement of all energy figures
as the use of LED bulbs in multi-storey car parks, redesign of air conditioning and ventilation infrastructure as well as the installation of three photovoltaic systems, Total energy consumption increased by 18.4% compared to 2012 (8.25 kWh / PE) until 2017 (6, 73 kWh / unit). During the same period, electricity consumption was reduced by 20.4%. The use of sustainable resources is at the leading edge of the airport: With a total area of ​​about 8 000 m², Flughafen Wien AG is already operating one of the largest photovoltaic systems in Austria today. # 39; hui. Another plant – the fourth on the site – will enter service in 2018. The airport is also focusing more and more on electromobility: 37 catering vehicles will be converted into electric vehicles and 30 new pbadenger buses will be proposed, then the elevating platforms will be converted into electric drives. This saves more than 275,000 liters of diesel per year. As part of a large-scale research project, Flughafen Wien is developing new measures to promote electronic mobility on the site.

Nearly half: 43% less CO2 emissions since 2012 – Target: Airport CO2 neutral
From 2012 to 2017, Vienna Airport has reduced its CO2 emissions by 43% and thus reduced them considerably. In 2017, Flughafen Wien AG was certified by ACAS Level 3, a four-tier international program of the Airport Council International (ACI) to reduce airport CO2 emissions. The goal of Vienna Airport is to become a totally CO2 neutral operation. The Vienna Airport has been certified according to EMAS (Eco Management & Audit Scheme), a program of the European Union, since 2015 for its exemplary management of the environment.
