In 2015, the Cochin International Airport in Kerala made history when it became the first airport in the world to run entirely on solar power. Today, Delhi Airport has switched to renewable sources for its energy needs and has becomes India's first airport to run entirely on hydro and solar power. This is a major step by the airport toward achieving the ambitious goal of becoming a Net Zero Carbon Emission Airport by 2030.
"DIAL has been working relentlessly towards environmental sustainability and has set its target to make Delhi Airport a Net Zero Carbon Emission airport by 2030, way ahead of the global target of 2050. To achieve this, DIAL has adopted a green transportation programme recently and now we achieved another milestone of the Green Energy Program for IGIA. Delhi Airport has been using solar power for a long time and it is now fulfilling its major electricity needs from a hydropower plant. Running Delhi Airport completely on renewable sources of energy is indeed a major milestone achieved by DIAL. This initiative has further consolidated DIAL's positioning as one of the greenest airports globally," said CEO-DIAL Videh Kumar Jaipuriar.
As far as the Navi Mumbai International Airport is concerned, L&T Infrastructure Engineering has been awarded the detailed design consultant (DDC) contract for Phase 1. This new airport in Panvel & Ulwe, Maharashtra by CIDCO is being developed by the Adani Group-led Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIAL) with a 4 phase master plan to handle over 60 million passengers per annum in the future.
