RAS AL KHAIMAH, 9th May, 2025 (WAM) — Ras Al Khaimah International Airport (RAK Airport) has announced a major step forward in its ongoing expansion, integrating cutting-edge sustainable technology to support the Emirate’s rapid development and its commitment to environmental stewardship.
The airport, a key gateway to Ras Al Khaimah’s growing tourism and economic sectors, will become the first in the Middle East and the wider Asian continent to implement DYNAES’s innovative thermodynamic energy efficiency solutions as part of its terminal building extension.
In response to the increasing demand for air travel and the Emirate’s ambitious growth plans, Ras Al Khaimah Airport Authorities have prioritised sustainability and energy management in all phases of the airport’s development.
Recognising that air conditioning systems represent one of the most significant energy costs in airport operations, the project’s consultants-ARTELIA Airport and STG Contracting-proposed the adoption of DYNAES technology, as recently presented at Dubai COP28, to the Civil Aviation Authorities.
Sheikh Salem bin Sultan Al Qasimi, Head of Department of Civil Aviation in Ras Al Khaimah and Chairman of the Board of the Airport, stated, “RAK Airport joined already 2023 the Retrofit Energy Program of the Municipality and now showcases even with new technologies how aged infrastructure can level the path for sustainability.”
DYNAES’s patented system, developed in collaboration with leading institutions such as Mines Paris PSL, TÜV, and CNRS, consists of two components integrated before and after the condenser in thermodynamic systems. This breakthrough technology optimises the refrigerant and lubricating oil mixture, significantly enhancing thermal performance without increasing compressor power consumption or requiring additional electronic controls.
