Aviation service provider dnata announced that it will invest 110 million US dollars in 2025 to deploy 800 new electric ground handling equipment (GSE), which is an important part of its 210 million US dollar global procurement plan. This batch of equipment will be prioritized for deployment at key airports in 10 countries including the United Arab Emirates, Brazil, Italy, the United States and Singapore to support the company's business expansion and sustainable development strategy. This procurement is based on a long-term framework agreement signed with a leading global manufacturer in 2024, ensuring the acquisition of the most advanced low-carbon ground handling equipment.
Clive Sauve-Hopkins, the Chief Executive Officer of dnata Airport Operations, said: "Our continued significant investment in a modern fleet reflects both the scale of business expansion and our ambition to lead the industry in operational excellence and sustainable development." We are accelerating the adoption of zero-emission and low-carbon technologies in areas where infrastructure permits, and jointly developing forward-looking solutions with partners in regions where conditions are not yet ripe. \ "" He emphasized that the company adopts a data-driven long-term strategy to reduce its carbon footprint while ensuring operational efficiency.
This move marks an important step for dnata in promoting the green transformation of the aviation industry. By deploying electric ground handling equipment on a large scale, the company has not only enhanced operational efficiency but also set a new benchmark for the sustainable development of the global aviation industry. This investment will significantly reduce the carbon emissions of airport ground operations, while creating a more environmentally friendly operating environment for passengers, employees and the local community
