Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA), introduced its first batch of Electric Vehicles (EVs) on Wednesday.
To reduce dependency on fossil fuels, CSMIA has introduced 45 EVs by replacing its existing fleet of fossil fuel-powered vehicles. This is part of the airport’s commitment to reduce its carbon footprint and to promote sustainable transportation. CSMIA also intends to replace all its combustion-powered vehicles with electric vehicles as part of its Operational Net Zero mission by 2029.
In addition to the 45 EVs being introduced in January, CSMIA is also exploring the deployment of 60 more EVs in the next fiscal year, including ambulances, forward command post, security and airside operations and maintenance utility vehicles.
