Summary - Airport Electrification West 2024. Online registration by Cvent

Airports offer significant and distinctive opportunities to advance net-zero emissions goals, especially given the anticipated growth in both air cargo and travel over the coming decades. Electrifying airport operations, spanning ground support services, passenger terminal facilities, and airport mobility, is crucial for establishing a cost-effective and energy-efficient infrastructure. However, achieving this transition to net-zero emissions requires concerted collaboration and partnership among airport authorities, operators, federal and state regulators, policy leaders, utilities, and solution providers. Through joint efforts, these stakeholders can drive the electrification of operations, cargo, and passenger needs, thus fostering the sustainable transformation of US airports.

Following the success of our conference on Airport Electrification US in New York in March 2024, along with our related conferences on Port Electrification, Fleet Electrification, Buildings Electrification, and EV Charging Infrastructure, Global Transmission Report is thrilled to announce the launch of Airport Electrification West conference, scheduled for October 15-16, 2024 in Four Points by Sheraton Los Angeles International Airport. The mission of the conference is to highlight opportunities and explore solutions for electrifying airport operations in Western states.

The conference will serve as a platform to explore how the electrification of airport operations aligns with net-zero, sustainability, and resiliency goals in the Western states. It will also highlight how airports in this region are rising to the electrification challenge and how they should begin to understand future needs.

The event will bring together policymakers, airport authorities and operators, federal and state agencies, technology providers, electric power utilities, solution providers, and industry experts to present their perspectives, share the lessons learned, and discuss solutions and best practices for accelerating electrification at airports. Join us and be part of the cohort shaping the future electrification roadmap of airports in the West.
