Turning Europe’s airports green

While airports account for just a fraction of air industry emissions, OLGA shows that even small changes can have a big impact.

The project is implementing a portfolio of emissions-lowering actions at several European airports. This includes everything from integrating sustainable aviation fuels – including advanced biofuels – into conventional jet fuel infrastructure, to developing energy-efficient buildings, using electric vehicles and optimising the flow of both passengers and freight. Collectively, these have the potential to reduce an airport’s carbon footprint, cut noise pollution, improve air quality and protect local biodiversity.
