PRESS RELEASE
Paris-Le Bourget, Saint-Cloud, Paris,February
1st, 2024
Groupe ADP and Dassault Aviation join
forcesin support of sustainable aviation at
Paris-Le Bourget airport
Dassault Aviation, its subsidiary
Dassault Falcon Service (DFS) and Groupe ADP are joining forces to
make Paris-Le Bourget airport a pioneer in sustainable
aviation.
The five-year agreement signed by Groupe ADP,
Dassault Aviation and DFS strengthens their action in
decarbonization at Paris-Le Bourget airport, in a number of areas
including:
-
distribution and use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF);
-
use of electric equipment for all ground operations (fueling,
taxiing, towing, etc.);
-
use of geothermal power for airport buildings and hangars.
The agreement also contains a section aimed at
boosting the airport’s attractiveness in its employment pool.
“At Dassault Aviation, we firmly believe that
business aviation must lead the way in decarbonizing the aviation
industry. Our aircraft are particularly well suited to integrating
emission-reducing innovations. And our customers, who are mostly
businesses, are backing us in this initiative. We are exploring
several technologies, including SAFs which look very promising: our
Falcon jets can already fly with fuel containing 50% SAF. However,
only mixes with 30% are currently available in the market. We must
therefore accelerate the process. Our agreement with Groupe ADP
will contribute, by furthering our ambition to work together toward
the most effective solutions, both in this area and in many
others,” said Éric Trappier, Chairman and CEO of Dassault
Aviation.
“Decarbonizing aviation will begin with small
aircraft, and will only be possible with the full involvement of
the airport ecosystem. As infrastructure managers, we have a
responsibility to accelerate, integrate, and encourage the use of
new technologies that make the environmental transition possible.
Paris-Le Bourget is the first airport in Europe to have a permanent
double offering of sustainable aviation fuels. Around 3.2 million
liters of SAF were sold in 2023. We are developing our facilities
to enable our customers to electrify all of their ground
operations. With Dassault Aviation, we are making an unprecedented
commitment to see Paris-Le Bourget airport become a model of
low-carbon operations, through the full-scale deployment of
sustainable fuels and the electrification of all ground
operations,” explained Augustin de Romanet, Chairman and
CEO of Groupe ADP.
