Managing Green Airports

Airports face growing pressure from governments, airlines and passengers to cut emissions and resource use while traffic keeps growing. This programme shows how to manage an airport sustainability agenda in practice: carbon footprint measurement across Scope 1, 2 and 3 using the GHG Protocol, energy efficiency and on-site solar generation, water management and cooling in hot climates, waste and circular economy programmes, green building ratings such as Estidama and Mostadam, ground vehicle electrification and support for sustainable aviation fuel. It links these to environmental management systems under ISO 14001 and to national commitments such as Saudi Green Initiative and UAE net zero targets.

Managing Green Airports

Program Overview

Airports face growing pressure from governments, airlines and passengers to cut emissions and resource use while traffic keeps growing. This programme shows how to manage an airport sustainability agenda in practice: carbon footprint measurement across Scope 1, 2 and 3 using the GHG Protocol, energy efficiency and on-site solar generation, water management and cooling in hot climates, waste and circular economy programmes, green building ratings such as Estidama and Mostadam, ground vehicle electrification and support for sustainable aviation fuel. It links these to environmental management systems under ISO 14001 and to national commitments such as Saudi Green Initiative and UAE net zero targets.

Learning Outcomes

  • ✓Prepare an airport carbon footprint covering Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions using the GHG Protocol.
  • ✓Identify energy and cooling efficiency measures suited to terminals operating in hot climates.
  • ✓Design water, waste and recycling programmes with measurable targets for terminal and airside operations.
  • ✓Evaluate green building and infrastructure options using recognised rating systems.
  • ✓Engage airlines, handlers and concessionaires in shared emission reduction initiatives.
  • ✓Develop an airport sustainability roadmap with indicators, responsibilities and reporting.

Target Audience

  • Airport environment and sustainability managers
  • Airport facilities, energy and engineering managers
  • Airport planning and development staff

Applied Project & Assessment

Applied Project

Participants prepare a green airport roadmap for a Gulf airport case: baseline carbon footprint, priority energy, water and waste initiatives with estimated savings, stakeholder engagement plan and a set of indicators for annual reporting.

Assessment

Short diagnostic at the start, practical tasks linked to each learning outcome, and evaluation of the applied project against published criteria.
