In 2019, 17.9 million passengers used Geneva Airport. That is 1.4% more than in the previous year. Specialising in point-to-point flights (direct links between Geneva and many large European cities), the airport nevertheless serves numerous long-haul destinations.
Energy strategy
In terms of energy strategy, the objectives set by the airport are based on cantonal and federal policies. They consist of three pillars: efficiently consuming and limiting the energy required for operations; producing and distributing energy in the most efficient possible way; giving priority to an energy supply from renewable energy sources. New buildings are required by law to include one or more means of producing renewable energy. In 2019, the cumulative savings amounted to nearly 6.7 GWh for the entire site, which is equivalent to the annual consumption of 2800 Swiss households.
