ABB creates a digital infrastructure for safe, smart, sustainable aviation

—

Aviation is the superhighway of global commerce and communication, and airports are its onramps.

With 3.8 billion travelers in 2022, aviation is a catalyst for economic growth, enabling connectivity with global markets and the rapid movement of goods and people. Air travel has bounced back dramatically from the collapse of global air traffic in 2020, yet many challenges remain: a tight labor market, an uncertain economy, rising costs, and the looming disruption of global climate change. The aviation industry accounts for approximately 2 percent of global CO2 emissions, making it both a significant contributor to and victim of the impacts of global warming.

ABB can help you meet these challenges by creating a smart power infrastructure to meet the operational needs of airports today and tomorrow. Safe, reliable and resilient power distribution is the backbone of any modern infrastructure. And digital technology is what ties it all together.

By connecting all of your operational systems to a central digital command center, you have visibility into every aspect of airport operations – from water and power systems to terminal buildings, runway lighting and air traffic control.

Digitalization allows you to collect and analyze data from all the connected systems, delivering better insights for better decision making. This approach enables:

  • Enhanced capacity
  • Improved operational efficiency
  • Reduced CapEx and OpEx for greater cost efficiency
  • Better passenger experience
  • More revenue opportunities
  • Ability to attract and retain airlines
  • Regulatory compliance
