demonstrate that what might seem
like a far-off future for electric GSE
is already a reality in many other
stations within our network. These
discussions are crucial for aligning
regional airports with global sustainability
standards and overcoming
existing infrastructural limitations. "
Aircraft ground handling sustainability
in the region relies on
the commitment of each link in the
chain, according to Serrano.
" Few governments have incentive
programs for transitioning to clean
energy. Airport authorities would
need to invest in facilitating energy
supply, airlines would need to understand
that this leads to higher operational
costs, and therefore they would
have to accept small cost increases
from their suppliers, " he says. " Also,
the suppliers would need to accept
that only by investing in electric
equipment will they be able to close
the loop and achieve sustainability. "
Renewable energy integration,
environmental compliance and certification
and social responsibility
and workforce development are other
foundations of sustainability in the
region, according to Mas.
" For what concerns energy efficiency
and emissions reduction,
our focus is on lowering the carbon
footprint of our ground handling
operations by adopting more energy-efficient
practices and technologies, "
he says.
Promoting social sustainability
through fair labor practices, workforce
training and community
engagement is an important pillar.
" Key to this is upholding the
highest standards and protections in
relation to labor and human rights, "
Mas concludes.
