This week, I had the privilege of attending the IATA World Sustainability Symposium in Miami, from September 24-25, 2024. With over 550 participants from 60+ countries, including airlines, airports, and ground handlers like Swissport, this second edition was a powerful reminder of the collective responsibility we share in the aviation industry. The two intense days of discussions and workshops centered around one key theme: partnership. Tackling challenges like de-carbonization and waste requires collaboration across the entire ecosystem. The message of the conference was clear—we need to work together to find scalable, actionable solutions. It was also interesting to learn about the transformation that is already in motion. From ambitious hydrogen trials for flights and #groundhandling to increased transparency and compliance with evolving regulations like CSRD, we are making progress. There’s still much work ahead, and Swissport is ready to play its part. I'm looking forward to next year's symposium in Hong Kong! #iatawss -

#Germany supports Swissport's transition to #electricvehicles! 🚙 The German Federal Ministry of Digital and Transport supports Swissport in its efforts to accelerate the transition to electric-powered equipment. After a successful application process for grants for the purchase of electric ground power units (eGPU), Swissport will now be able to increase its orders for state-of-the-art electric ground power units to use at German airports, replacing current, diesel-powered units. Thanks to the funding, Swissport will soon be operating more than 40% of its GPUs in Germany electrically, which helps to achieve the companies CO2 reduction targets faster. Nicolas Kreischer, Fleet Manager for Germany & Austria at Swissport, managed the application process for the eGPUs and yesterday received the approval from the German Federal Minister for Digital and Transport, Dr. Volker Wissing, in Berlin. 👍 The electrification of Swissport's fleet offers numerous benefits to airlines, airports, and employees, including more reliable and comfortable equipment, noise reduction, health and safety features such as anti-collision systems, increased asset availability, and enhanced automation potential. As the largest global operator of airport ground support equipment, Swissport boasts a fleet of approximately 14,300 motorized units. As part of its commitment to achieving 55% eGSE by 2032, Swissport is implementing a newly adopted procurement policy that stipulates that starting in January 2025, new vehicles across various categories can only be ordered in electric versions. By 2027, Swissport intends to procure only electric GSE, depending on the availability of the required equipment and the development of sufficient charging infrastructure at airports. At Frankfurt Airport #FRA, where Swissport recently secured a license to provide ground services starting in February 2025, Swissport plans to overall invest some €25 million in electric ground support equipment (eGSE) to ensure that operations at one of the world's leading hubs are as green as possible from day one. 🌱 NOW GmbH #Klimaschutz #Luftfahrt #Nachhaltigkeit #Bodenstrom #GreenAirports #sustanability #greenairways Fraport AG -
