Saudi Arabia’s General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA) intends to adopt a range of initiatives and programs that ensure environmentally friendly operations, including the full operation of some airports with renewable energy, Saudi Press Agency reported, citing Mohammed Al Khuraisi, GACA’s Strategy Director General.

 

The authority also plans to improve runways, operating procedures and ground movement, implement Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA), and reshape the atmosphere to ensure the highest levels of effectiveness and efficiency, he added.

 

The civil aviation sector’s strategy will see huge investment opportunities for the private sector by 2030, the official said.
