In Harmony with the Environment
Do You Feel the Opportunity?
Everyone can benefit from the airport development.
At Aerodrom Ljubljana, d.d., we have decided to consistently follow
the principles of sustainable development, considering environmental
problems and the interests of local communities as
being on an equal level as the economic, technical and aesthetic
perspectives of Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport.
We will continue our commitment to the local community and
its social and cultural agenda, by supporting different events,
activities and programmes to make people see that living near
an airport can also be of benefit to them.
We strive to protect against noise, handle energy carefully, and
care about keeping the environment clean. We are active in the
field of health; we contribute also to the development of knowledge
and education. We expect that this will be of even more
importance in the coming years as the development of the airport
will inevitably collide with the interests of the local population.
In line with civil initiatives, we will promptly deal with problems
and find the optimal, sustainable solutions.
Buildings in Aeropolis will be constructed on the principles of
passive energy. Even now we carefully monitor the energy consumption
of the heating and air-conditioning systems. The fact
that a large proportion of the parking spaces will be situated on
basement floors will have a positive impact on the total amount
of green areas provided, allowing for the creation of well designed
open spaces.
In cooperation with specialists in the field of energetics, we are
looking into the production and storage of renewable energy to
fulfil the needs of Aeropolis.
The railway connection will reduce the dependence of the airport
on road traffic; it will relieve the pressure on the roads and
consequently, also the environmental impact. The airport will be
better connected with Ljubljana, which will benefit not only the
airport users, but also the local population.
At the moment, about 2000 jobs are supported by airport activities.
The number will slowly increase along with the planned expansion.
We expect at least another 3000 people to work in Aeropolis;
the local population will also benefit from a significant
increase in indirectly connected occupations, mainly in services
and tourism.
