Sharjah Airport is pursuing its sustainability vision

three years after obtaining the ACI level 3+ neutrality

accreditation for successfully managing its carbon

imprint.

Sharjah Taxi, a part of Osool Transport Solutions,

started testing its first electric vehicles at Sharjah

International Airport last June. The fleet of limousines

leads the route towards environmentally-friendly

transportation, with the ultimate goal of achieving

carbon-free public transportation by 2050.

Sharjah Taxi is actively expanding the number of

electric charging stations across the emirate to cater

for various electric vehicles, ensuring compatibility and

convenience for users. The company also plans to

explore new vehicle models for optimal economic and

environmental outcomes.

Sharjah is adding new chapters to its history as a vital

trading hub and important sheikhdom in the 18th

century under the Al Qasimi dynasty.

Aviation is clearly a growth lever for its economy,

which grew by 5.2 per cent in 2022, and Sharjah

Airport is indisputably a major airfreight hub in cargo
