Green towing in the airport
13 October 2017
From mid-July 2017 to mid-Jan 2018, Pan Asia Pacific Aviation Services (PAPAS) has trialed the operation of the first electric aircraft towing tractor in HKIA. This e-tractor is tailor-made for narrow-bodied aircraft. We have installed over 270 chargers to encourage ground service equipment (GSE) fleet operators to use more electrical vehicles and GSE, hereby reducing carbon and other pollutants on the apron.
