IGL will also manage the development of the City Gas Distribution (CGD) network, ensuring smooth connections to and from the CNG stations.
In its first phase, the airport will have the capacity to handle 12 million passengers annually.
Noida International Airport (NIA) has teamed up with Indraprastha Gas Limited (IGL) to set up Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) infrastructure, furthering its commitment to sustainable transport.
As part of the partnership, IGL will build two CNG stations—one in the west precinct and another in the airside area—to serve travellers, staff, and airport partners.
IGL will also develop the City Gas Distribution (CGD) network at the airport, ensuring easy access to the CNG stations. Additionally, the collaboration will include the installation of pipeline infrastructure to supply piped natural gas (PNG) to F&B outlets, lounges, and kitchens in the terminal and other airport buildings.
Christoph Schnellmann, CEO of Noida International Airport, said, “Our collaboration with Indraprastha Gas Limited marks another step in our journey towards building a sustainable and future-ready airport. By integrating CNG infrastructure, we are providing cleaner fuel alternatives to airport users while supporting the broader transition to greener mobility in the region.”
This initiative is in line with NIA’s goal of creating an environmentally conscious and energy-efficient airport, providing sustainable transport solutions for passengers, staff, and partners.
In its first phase, the airport will be able to handle 12 million passengers annually with one runway and terminal. By the fourth phase, it will be capable of managing 70 million passengers a year, positioning it as a major regional hub.
