NEWS FLASH


Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport has successfully upgraded to Level 3 - optimisation - in the four-level Airport Carbon Accreditation program. Achieving Level 3 Optimisation requires airports to expand their carbon footprint assessments to include various Scope 3 emissions, such as those generated by airlines, ground handlers, and concessionaires. Belgrade Airport aims to halve its carbon footprint by 2030 and achieve net zero CO2 emissions by 2050. The airport has undertaken transformative initiatives to achieve these goals, including replacing its old oil boiler with a trigeneration plant powered by gas. This facility, with a capacity of 44 MW, provides electricity, heating, and cooling. Additionally, the airport has invested in renewable energy, installing a 1 MW photovoltaic power plant and integrating solar-powered lighting systems into public parking areas. Energy efficiency measures have also been implemented extensively, with 95% of lighting systems replaced by LED technology. Furthermore, the airport has made progress in electrifying its ground operations, expanding its charging infrastructure with 39 EV chargers and introducing solar canopies equipped with fast-charging capabilities in the car park near the terminal.

Carbon accredited airports in the former Yugoslavia include: Sarajevo, Dubrovnik, Zadar, Podgorica and Tivat (mapping), Skopje and Ljubljana (reduction), Zagreb (optimisation) and Pristina (neutrality).
