Mexico City – The U.S. Trade and Development
Agency signed an agreement today supporting
Grupo Aeroportuario de la Ciudad de México,
S.A. de C.V (GACM), the concessionaire of the
Mexico City’s new international airport
(NAICM).
USTDA will collaborate with GACM on best
practices related to green airport construction
and operations. The project will utilize
renewable energy resources, promote the use of
public transit and develop programs to protect
the environment including water resources,
wildlife and vegetation.
“USTDA is pleased to partner with GACM on this
important project,” said USTDA Director
Leocadia I. Zak. “The new airport in Mexico
City is expected to become one of the busiest
airports in the world, which provides a great
opportunity to showcase environmentally
sustainable airport construction and
operations.”
NAICM is set to replace the existing Benito
Juarez International Airport by 2020.
