“Airport Goes Electric Fast”: Korea''s Busiest Hub to Install 1,100
In a groundbreaking move, these automakers are set to trial a new robotic system at Incheon International Airport in South Korea, aimed at automating the EV charging process.
Energy storage at the airport is an interesting alternative to supply electric aircraft charging. It can support electric aircraft charging and reduce peak charging power, thus reducing peak demand from the grid. This limits stress on the surrounding power grid and may reduce the cost of more extensive grid connections to the airport.
Hydrogen for airport energy storage could support electric aircraft charging and be used as a fuel for hydrogen-powered aircraft. More research is needed regarding the optimal configuration of airport infrastructure to support electric aircraft development. 1. Introduction
According to them, Incheon Airport, home to Korea's largest eco-friendly vehicle infrastructure, offers an ideal setting for this initiative, having already transitioned its entire business fleet to eco-friendly vehicles and targeting 1,110 EV chargers by 2026.
Batteries are the energy storage technique with the highest potential for early airport implementation due to their high efficiency. The dual usability of hydrogen, following the introduction of hydrogen aircraft, makes it a viable option for future airport implementation.
