Many airports are pursuing on-site power and microgrid technologies as a way to protect against grid outages. Increasing air traffic, sustainability goals, and fears of utility-scale outages will continue to drive microgrid and on-site power adoption at many airports. The World Economic Forum has noted that the electric and on-site power requirements will be five to 10 times higher over the next 25 years. Microgrids offer airports more resiliency in the wake of catastrophic events such as extreme weather, as well as power flexibility from a combination of on-site renewables, gas or diesel generators, and a grid-tied connection. This panel will provide additional background on the value proposition of deploying microgrids at airports, supported by projects that are either underway or completed.
