Electric vehicles introduced at Islamabad Airport as commitment to pollution control
The Pakistan
Airports Authority is taking steps toward cleaner airport operations by
introducing electric vehicles for ground transport. A BYD electric vehicle, in a yellow-and-black
checkered livery, was recently spotted in active service at an airport
facility.
The move aims to reduce emissions and noise from traditional petrol and diesel service vehicles, while modernizing airport support fleets. Officials have not disclosed the full scale of the deployment, but the initiative reflects a growing focus on sustainability.
