Sustainable mobility at Memmingen Airport

Memmingen Airport considers itself responsible for improving clean air and reducing noise pollution through the use of low-emission technologies, which can also contribute to greater economic efficiency due to lower maintenance costs and thus higher availability.
An important contribution is therefore the gradual conversion of the airport fleet to drive systems with sustainable energies: first and foremost electric, gas, synthetic diesel/HVO and, in future, hydrogen.

 

The aim is to steadily expand e-mobility on land and in the air

Fleet management faces major challenges in terms of financial and day-to-day operational issues, particularly for specialised fire service vehicles, area management and winter service/de-icing.

It is important to be able to provide a functioning charging infrastructure:
Numerous electric charging points are available in the security area, which are used by various vehicles, including the car fleet, aircraft and baggage tugs, cleaning machines and e-scooters.

  • There are 220-volt charging points for company vehicles and private cars in various employee car parks.
  • In addition, several specially marked parking spaces with charging points have been set up around the rental car centre.
  • A large e-charging station is located on the access road to the airport in the immediate vicinity of the terminal. This is used by passengers, delivery and collection drivers as well as local residents, service providers and employees. The charging points are powered by environmentally friendly green electricity from the airport’s own photovoltaic system.
