New Renewable Power Contract Puts Airport In Prime Position To Become UK’s First Net Zero Site!
A new deal has put Teesside Airport in prime position to become the UK’s first operationally Net Zero site before the end of the decade.
The new electricity contract with North East firm 121 Business Links will ensure power to the airport is generated from 100% renewable sources.
It’s another big step towards meeting the ambition to be the UK’s first operationally Net Zero airport by 2030.
Progress is being made on the push at the moment with the airport’s vision for the future includes using solar power generated from the wider site, and use of SAF (Sustainable Aviation Fuel) with Willis Sustainable Fuels (UK) Limited having ambitions to open a Power-to-Liquid SAF refinery in the region for aircraft fuel.
Planning permission has also been lodged for an innovative hydrogen refuelling station on land near the former St George Hotel with leading hydrogen refuelling company Element 2.
