How airports are accelerating the energy revolution
Venice Airport, San Francisco International and Fraport reveal there is no single pathway to decarbonisation, sharing practical insights from their multi-technology approaches to achieving net zero by 2050.
Aviation’s energy transition is no longer an abstract ambition, it is unfolding in real time across global airports. During International Airport Review’s recent webinar Accelerating the Energy Revolution in Airports, three leading airport operators: Venice Airport (Gruppo SAVE), San Francisco International Airport (SFO), and Fraport, revealed how they are reshaping their energy systems, decarbonising operations, and preparing for long‑term shifts such as hydrogen, SAF and full electrification.
During the session, the speakers shared practical insights into how airports are approaching the energy transition in very different regulatory, geographic and operational environments.
Despite those differences, a clear message emerged: there is no single pathway to decarbonisation. Instead, airports are combining multiple technologies and strategies to build resilient, future-ready energy systems.
