Advantages for Airports
ATC Systems traditionally rely on conventional energy sources, grid-based power systems and uninterruptible power supplies with lead acid batteries, for backup power needs. However, as energy technology advances, alternative power sources such as solar energy combined with high-capacity battery storage are proving to be more reliable, longer life, cost-effective, and environmentally sustainable.
Reduced Operational Costs
Investing in solar power and advanced battery systems offers improved operational life and lower maintenance thereby reducing airport energy costs. Diesel generators, while effective in emergencies, require constant maintenance, can be logistically challenging, are fuel dependent and prone to disruptions. By generating their own electricity, airports lower their reliance on the external grid. Our systems allow airports to better manage their budget and allocate resources toward other critical infrastructure improvements. For Grid outages, improving contingency operating time and the operating (at reduced capacity) level, we recommend reviewing in the context of a business case the new battery and solar technology offers. Solar energy systems, harness renewable resources that are continuously replenished, minimizing associated expenses.
Enhanced Environmental Sustainability
Airports worldwide are striving to achieve ambitious sustainability goals and reduce their carbon footprint. Integrating new battery technologies and solar panels helps to offset greenhouse gas emissions and lowers the environmental impact of airport operations. By choosing advanced energy solutions, airports take an active step toward a greener future, aligning with global sustainability standards and reinforcing their commitment to environmental responsibility. Diesel generators emit greenhouse gases and contribute to air and noise pollution, which can conflict with airports' environmental goals. In contrast, solar energy is a clean power source, producing no emissions during operation, which aligns well with sustainability and green certification goals for airports.
Uninterrupted Operations and Enhanced Safety
Airport systems must operate around the clock, regardless of external conditions. Power interruptions can lead to delays, security vulnerabilities, and passenger safety concerns. With high-capacity battery backups and advanced energy management systems, airports are equipped with a robust safety net, ensuring reliable power for essential operations, from air traffic control systems to runway lighting. Advanced battery storage systems can provide immediate backup power with no delay, unlike generators, which require start-up time. This instant power access is crucial for critical airport systems, such as security and air traffic control, where even a brief power loss can have significant consequences.
