How GSE powered by alternative
energy can provide benefits to ground
service providers.
By Josh Smith

nvironmentally
minded leaders
around the world
are constantly
looking for ways to
lower carbon dioxide (CO2) output
and reduce their
carbon footprint. In
the aviation industry, ground
handling operations have
sought alternative energy
ground support equipment
(GSE) to help achieve these
goals.
"The most significant benefits are the
positive effect in terms of carbon footprint
and sustainability, alongside huge cost savings and maintenance-free management of
equipment," Terri Smart-Jewkes, global sales
and marketing director at Aviramp, says.
"By utilizing green GSE, you significantly
reduce the environmental impact that fossil
fuel has," explains Alberto Rocha, sales director, Americas, ITW GSE.
"Electric vehicles also require less maintenance - there are fewer moving parts - and
they last longer," adds Lars Barsoe, VP of sales
and marketing at Vestergaard Company.
"Since there is no combustion engine, there
is also no small particle pollution, which is a
serious issue at airports."
Less exposure to exhaust fumes, such as
CO2 and nitrogen oxides (NOx), also benefits the health of ground handling personnel
that perform aircraft turnarounds, notes Jerry
Crump of PosiCharge.
