Abstract
Reducing energy consumption through energy efficiency and energy conservation is key as a first step to reducing carbon emissions. It is also essential on the journey to adopting alternative low carbon energy sources such as renewable energy. This paper presents an investigation into technologies that will reduce energy consumption at airports in South Africa, through estimating their energy reduction impact and the required investment and return on investment.
