In the competitive world of aviation, sustainable airports are not just connection points — they are also gateways that reflect the sustainability and modernity of a destination. Integrating sustainability, energy efficiency, and cutting-edge architectural design is essential to optimize operations, reduce costs, and minimize environmental impact. Discover how SUMAC, a reference in consulting and airport project development, can help you achieve these goals.
Sustainable airports have a significant environmental impact due to their size and continuous operation. Implementing sustainable strategies ensures these infrastructures are more efficient, reduce their carbon footprint, and promote responsible resource use.
For example, at the Capitán FAP José Abelardo Quiñones International Airport in Chiclayo, Peru, SUMAC led the LEED certification process, focusing on energy savings, efficient water use, and natural lighting modeling. These initiatives reinforce the environmental commitment and increase the value and prestige of the terminals.
Energy efficiency in airports is an operational advantage — and a necessity in a world where environmental regulations are increasingly strict. SUMAC offers services such as:
These services identify improvement areas and apply solutions that optimize energy consumption. In projects such as the O’Hare International Airport Terminal G, SUMAC integrated natural lighting and efficient heating systems, achieving significant savings and sustainable design.
