ALIGHT Policy Maker Workshop: “Towards Smart and Sustainable Airports in 2050”, 15th May 2025, Brussels, Belgium


Date: 15th May 2025, 9:00 –16:00

Venue:ARC, Rue Montoyer 21, Brussels; Belgium

The EU Horizon 2020 project ALIGHT is addressing environmental challenges in aviation by integrating Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) and smart energy solutions at airports. Through large-scale demonstrations at Copenhagen Airport, ALIGHT has developed innovative approaches to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and support international climate targets. 


Scope: This workshop will present ALIGHT’s key findings and recommendations while facilitating discussions with stakeholders, experts, and policymakers. Special emphasis will be placed on:
• Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) and alternative propulsion
• Smart energy supply and management for airports
• Broader sustainability strategies within the airport ecosystem

The discussions will also connect ALIGHT’s findings to key EU policy initiatives such as Fit for 55, ReFuelEU Aviation, and the European Green Deal, outlining how airports can align with upcoming regulatory frameworks and sustainability goals.
