Bristol Airport produced 20% more renewable energy this summer than the previous year, with its solar arrays generating over 1.7 million kWh in 2026 – enough electricity for roughly 680 homes annually.
The airport’s solar farm has a capacity of 1.5 MW and later this year will launch a £10 million Energy Centre that will use electrically powered air‑source heat pumps to heat and cool the terminal, while also funding research into low‑height wind turbines and targeting a 73% reduction in carbon emissions by 2027.
