MANGALURU: The Mangaluru International Airport on the eve of World Environment Day has reached yet another critical milestone in its resolve of achieving the Net Zero goal.

In replacing 1,111 conventional lights spread across various functional areas with as many LED lights, the airport has achieved 100% conversion of lights with LED ones. This changeover will help the airport overall save 188,558.96 kWH/annum.
The biggest saving will be seen in the National Air Traffic Services building area where the airport will save 1.17-lakh kWH/annum with the use of 752 LED lights. ENS
