AAHL, a subsidiary of Adani Enterprises Ltd, has been recognised for its exceptional commitment to energy conservation.

The NECA Awards, organised by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency in the Ministry of Power, honours organisations that demonstrate outstanding achievements in energy efficiency.

By embracing innovative technologies and sustainable practices, SVPI Airport is setting a new benchmark for the aviation industry.

“This NECA 2024 award is testament to the airport's dedication to creating a greener and more sustainable future,” said the Adani Airport Holdings.

SVPI Airport has implemented a comprehensive range of energy-saving measures, including state-of-the-art systems with high-efficiency cooling which have replaced less efficient chillers and cooling towers, resulting in a significant reduction in energy consumption.

The implementation of centralised chiller systems and energy-efficient Variable Refrigerant Volume (VRV) air conditioning systems has significantly improved the energy performance of the airport's Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems.

Water conservation at the airport includes the installation of water-efficient aerators and recycling sewage water for various purposes, including horticulture and use in the HVAC systems.

“Sustainable transportation with the use of electric vehicles for airport operations has enabled SVPI Airport to significantly reduce its carbon footprint and fossil fuel consumption,” it emphasised.

The record-breaking, half-year performance of Adani Enterprises Ltd (AEL) this fiscal has been led by Adani New Industries Ltd (ANIL) and Adani Airport Holdings Ltd (AAHL), with their rapid growth in capacity additions and asset utilisation.
