introduction

Green energy is a term that refers to renewable energy sources and clean. Furthermore, when
these technologies can come to help consumers by reducing bills for various utilities and,
adoption of such a system is an investment extremely cost for airports, hotels, hospitals etc.
Photovoltaic and wind energy are viable solution for buildings that do not currently enjoy the
national electricity network connection in the future, by appropriate legislation such systems
can become cost effective for customers connected to the national network by eliminating the
need of using batteries and supply power directly to the national grid. Renewable energy
potential and owning one delivers unlimited local use and nationwide. Harnessing renewable
energy sources shall be based on three important premises conferred by them, namely,
accessibility, affordability and acceptability. A solar panel or a solar panel mounted correctly
can be reduced by up to 70% cost of heating a building. Solar heating to be seen not as a
complete alternative to traditional heating system, but a system which ensures a reduction of
heating costs, especially in the situation existing buildings, whose degree of thermal insulation
is reduced. Solar panels are mounted on the roof in a south or southwest. The idea is that in
that instead of the sun as much time in the day. It was not shaded by vegetation or buildings
the panels are mounted at an angle of about 45 °. The panels weigh less (30-70 kg without
water tank) and do not affect the structure of roofs that are installed. Weight reached a few
tens of kilograms, depending on model. Then take into account the volume of water and if
the external tank. Agent solar thermal plant can reach 120 °C Water temperature thermal
battery can reach up to 90 °C. Hot water can be supplied at 75- 85 °C, in summer, and at 15-
45 °C during winter. Good still limited domestic hot water temperature at 55 °C, to avoid the
deposition of limestone and also for security reasons in use. Limitation is made through

Background and objectives to the study

There are three main theoretical difficulties involved in relating sustainability to aviation in
general but specifically at the dorado airport in Bogota and what has been achieved in a
research agenda for sustainable aviation must be addressed. The first is the uncertainty
regarding the critical thresholds of global environmental systems. The second is the lack of
protocols to allocate allowable environmental consumption quotas to, and therefore
objectives for, individual companies or sectors. The third is the judgment of different values
of the natural characteristics that must be supported. At the moment, these difficulties make
it impossible to determine the degree of sustainability or unsustainability of the airport the
individual gold with respect to global environmental systems. However, at this stage, at least
it can be said that given that most of the economic activity has an adverse environmental
impact, the airports with the highest production of material and people will tend to be less
sustainable than the smaller airports as the case may be. Colombian airports that have similar
technologies and regulatory compliance which could be implemented more advanced
technologies such as lights with solar panels and LED technology so that they are fed this
energy. This is supported and theoretically illustrated with the waste that emerges as an
indicator in the airports reviewed. Despite government policies on sustainable mobility, there
is a disjunction between EU and UK policy on airports and individual airport practices, and the
theory of environmental sustainability. In the United Kingdom and the EU, airport practice and
government policy are to mitigate the impacts of aviation, but not at the expense of its aviation
growth. This mitigation practice is summarized for the airports reviewed and is presented in a
framework that reflects the interim approach suggested for the evaluation of sustainability.

Location and General Characteristics

The development applies a Sustainability Index of the Latin American Airports Index, especially
the El Dorado airport located in the city of Bogota to compare the performance of airports in
multiple factors. The index is a composite indicator with 5 dimensions and 25 indicators. The
dimensions are airport services and quality, consumption and generation of energy, carbon
dioxide emissions and mitigation planning, environmental management and biodiversity, and
the atmosphere and transport of lower emissions. The index is applied to a sample to make a
comparison of airports that take place between the best and busiest airports in the world, in
passenger traffic and passenger satisfaction. The data is extracted from Corporate
Sustainability Reports and related sources. The airports of Amsterdam Schiphol, Frankfurt,
Munich, Istanbul Atatürk and London Heathrow are the 5 main airports in the sample. The
linear regression between the results of the index and the annual passenger flow is 0.1942.
The results can be used to compare progress in the dissociation of airport operations from an
environmental impact mayor. The document offers recommendations for the 5 dimensions of
the index in the best practices of the airports in the sample. The index is useful to help airport
administrators for the sustainable development of energy, water and environmental systems
at airports and take off towards more sustainable airport activities.

Methodology

This study develops a methodology to identify the critical technological groups for the
airport in El Dorado for a sustainable energy system with the implementation of solar panels
and LED technology in the surface and runway lights and evaluate the innovation
opportunities within these groups of technology in Colombia. This method integrates an
optimization model of 300 processes mapped with the exercise of technological evolution,
creating a novel approach for the selection criteria of innovative technology. The findings for
Colombia show that fossil fuels will continue to play an important role, but renewable
energies, such as energy and biomass together, could reach more than 30% of total
electricity generation. In addition, reductions in carbon dioxide emissions can exceed 50% in
high tax scenarios. The most relevant innovation potential for Bogota is biomass, wind
sectors and carbon capture in ethanol production. The study indicates that the long-term
future is uncertain and the decision to invest in innovation is risky and should account for the
stage of technological development and knowledge in different countries. The strategy for
innovation could, therefore, include international partnerships that join forces and a national
development strategy focused on the Colombian particularities

Conclusion

It was possible to determine the transfer functions for the solar cell system that will be
implemented in the dorado airport in Bogota Colombia. Thanks to the help of the MATLAB
® software, we were able to demonstrate that the system that we want to implement is
totally stable and reliable to put it to the test
