Extensive decarbonisation efforts
VINCI Airports undertakes various decarbonisation activities, including solar energy generation to decarbonise its electricity mix as well as regions’ electricity mixes. For instance, two new solar plants were commissioned in 2024 – one at Toulon Hyères airport in France and one at Las Américas airport near Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic. What’s more, one of the largest solar canopy sites in France will be commissioned at Lyon-Saint Exupéry airport in 2025. This 20 MWp facility will generate 24 GWh of green electricity annually – enough to meet the needs of a town with a population of 9,000. VINCI Airports, which has made sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) available at eight of its airports for several years now, also announced a new fuelling contract signed with TotalEnergies in 2024 for the supply of SAF at Annecy airport.
