2018 ANNUAL REPORT
Facility Optimization at Offshore Island Airports
Air transport is vital for the access to offshore islands. Offering offshore island residents better airport services has always been our mission. For the southern bay area of Kinmen Airport that is constantly hit by typhoons, the construction project of the seaside revetment and embankment of Kinmen Airport was launched in 2018. The embankment and airport boundary fence are projected to be completed by the end of 2019, so as to ensure the aviation safety of the runway area. The expansion and renovation projects for the terminals of Matsu's Beigan and Nangan Airports have commenced. The terminal renovation will be completed to better serve the passengers at Beigan Airport by 2020 and at Nangan Airport by 2021 respectively. The projects for the runway improvement assessment and the comprehensive planning for Beigan Airport are underway. The detail design of Lanyu Airport's runway renovation project was completed in 2018, whereas the construction is to be contracted in 2019. Hence, the aviation safety and operational quality shall be improved upon the completion of project.
Promoting Airport Energy Diversification
Pursuant to the clean energy policy of Taiwan, the energy sources for airports should be diversified as well. After airports in Penghu, Taichung, Tainan and Kaohsiung have photovoltaic facilities installed, the CAA also pushed for the photovoltaic facility installation in Hualien Airport, which was completed for parallel generation in September 2018. Furthermore, the photovoltaic facilities will be installed in the green area around the VOR of Air Navigation and Weather Services in Miaoli and over the Kaohsiung International Airport's staff parking lot to actively promote clean and renewable energy.
