BARCELONA, SPAIN. September 9th, 2026 – Eternity Technologies has completed a major charging infrastructure programme for AENA, covering 41 airports across Spain and providing charging management for 2,080 ground support vehicles through a network of more than 1,100 DC chargers.
The project has now reached final acceptance and certification, marking the completion of a large-scale deployment designed to support the growing electrification of Ground Support Equipment (GSE) operations across the AENA airport network.
The project involved the supply, installation, commissioning and subsequent certification of an extensive charging infrastructure developed to meet the operational requirements of ground handling equipment across multiple airport locations.
Delivered across a range of airports and ground handling operations, the project encompasses:
- 41 airports
- 58 ground handling operators
- 2,080 GSE vehicles managed
- 1,106 DC chargers
- 451 dual charging stations
- 66 single charging stations
- 136 DC charger replacements
The scale of the deployment highlights Eternity Technologies’ ability to deliver complex charging infrastructure across multiple sites while meeting the operational and technical requirements of demanding airport environments.
The project also includes a web-based charging control and reporting platform, giving operators greater visibility over charging activity and energy use across the network.
The platform provides GSE identification and charging control, energy consumption monitoring, operator and user management, charging session reporting and SAP ERP data integration. As of August 2026, more than 2026 GWh of energy had been managed through the platform.
Installation and commissioning were carried out between September 2023 and March 2024, involving extensive coordination between multiple airports, customers and operational teams.
Final acceptance and certification was completed in July 2026, bringing a project spanning almost three years from its initial stages through to final approval to a close.
Mark Stevenson, CEO of Eternity Technologies, said: “The successful completion of this project demonstrates the scale and complexity of the solutions Eternity Technologies is capable of delivering.
“Supporting charging infrastructure across 41 airports and more than 2,000 GSE vehicles required significant coordination, technical expertise and collaboration across our teams.
“As airports and ground handling operators continue their transition towards electrified fleets, reliable charging infrastructure and effective energy management will become increasingly important. We are proud to have supported AENA with a solution designed around the demands of real-world GSE operations.”
The completion of the AENA project comes ahead of Eternity Technologies’ participation at GSE Expo Europe 2026, taking place from 15 to 17 September at FIL, Lisbon, Portugal. The event brings together GSE manufacturers, suppliers, airports, airlines and ground handling professionals from across the global aviation industry.
Eternity Technologies will showcase its energy and charging solutions for Ground Support Equipment and discuss how its technologies can support the transition towards more efficient and electrified ground operations.
The event will take place from 15 to 17 September 2026 at FIL, Feira Internacional de Lisboa, Lisbon, Portugal. Eternity Technologies will be located at Stand F00.
Visitors attending the exhibition are invited to meet the Eternity Technologies team to discuss GSE battery, charging and energy solutions. For more information about the event, visit GSE Expo Europe 2026.
