LED PAPI Systems. Aviation Renewables has been awarded a contract to design, integrate and deliver portable LED PAPI (Precision Approach Path Indicator) systems powered by Solar Series RMS engines with L854 Pilot Activated Lighting Control (PALC) for a South Pacific remote island airfield.

The remote private airfield is situated in extremely mountainous terrain. The sudden changes associated with the mountain weather leads to low visibility conditions that can be a challenge to pilots on approach. In order to maintain proper attitude and approach slope, the airport decided a PAPI system would be the best tool. The airport has no grid electricity and no ground personnel, so they required a system that used off-grid electricity and would be remotely activated.

LED Apron Lighting. Aviation Renewables designed and supplied an ICAO compliant LED apron floodlighting system for an apron expansion project at an International Airport in the Caribbean. The LED apron lighting project was installed by a Canadian contracting company in the spring of 2021 with remote technical assistance from Aviation Renewables due to the pandemic travel restrictions.

LED PAPI System. Aviation Renewables was tasked with the planning, surveying, installation and commissioning of Solar LED PAPIs and Solar Windsock Lighting (LED Windcones) in Georgetown, Guyana. These visual aids will be used permanently following the completion of a runway extension project. The savings in installation cost, maintenance cost and electricity made the solar LED PAPI the desired option for this gateway to the country.

Cheddi Jagan International Airport, in Georgetown Guyana, is nearing completion of a runway extension project. As part of the project, new lighting was installed during resurfacing of the existing runway. In order to meet cost and sustainability goals for the project, the airport consulted Aviation Renewables on ways to implement ICAO-compliant lighting that would make an impact on both financial savings and the environment.

Reflective Edge Marker. Aviation Renewables supplied Lynden Pindling International Airport in Nassau, Bahamas with its iSeries retro reflective taxiway edge markers and Solar Series LED wind cones for day and nighttime airfield operations. The ICAO compliant retro reflective edge markers complement existing LED airfield lighting as a redundant taxiway back up marking system in the event of electrical failures with the Solar Series LED Windcones replacing existing electrically powered windcones. The iSeries and Solar Series LED airfield lighting and edge marking solutions help meet LPIA’s energy, maintenance, emergency preparedness and carbon reduction targets.

LED PAPI Systems. Aviation Renewables delivered multiple solar-hybrid powered LED PAPI (Precision Approach Path Indicators) for remote airports in the Middle East. Aviation Renewables worked with the Aviation Authority to design a unique solar-hybrid power system to ensure the LED PAPI units will operate in the challenging mountainous terrain year round.

Reflective Runway Markers. Aviation Renewables designed and supplied a reflective marking solution using the Models 324 & 336 for a private airport in Canada. The airport needed a specially designed reflective sheath in order to extend the life of the existing markers and new reflective runway markers to enable 24/7 operations.

Windsock Lighting. Aviation Renewables designed and supplied a solar powered tactical windcone for a military force in the middle east. Through a program of record agreement, multiple batches of these portable, NVG compatible wind direction indicators have been sent in support of mission readiness goals.

Reflective Runway Markers. Aviation Renewables designed and supplied a refurbishment kit for a runway using Model 324 Reflective Runway Markers. The airport had been using the markers for 2 decades, and needed a specially designed reflective sheath in order to extend the life of the existing markers.

Windsock Lighting Solution. Aviation Renewables has delivered a Solar Series Permanent LED Windsock Lighting for a surface helipad at a canadian hospital in Manitoba. The constructor was contracted to procure and install a permanent wind cone for the hospital that complies to ICAO Annex 14, Vol2, 5.1.1 for surface helipads. The addition of the new concrete helipad and the internally lit wind cone will provide the air ambulance pilots with a more visible and safe landing zone.

LED PAPI lights. Aviation Renewables supplied, installed and commissioned a Solar LED Precision Approach Path Indicator (PAPI) for temporary use during construction activity. A runway-repaving project necessitated several threshold displacements over the course of several months. The Solar LED PAPI proved the ideal choice for cost-savings, ease of use and the ability to quickly move it as the project progressed.

Portable Airfield Lighting. Aviation Renewables has been awarded a contract to supply, deliver and commission two portable LED airfield lighting systems for a central East African Civil Aviation Department. Each portable LED airfield lighting system will consist of LED runway lighting, LED threshold lighting, LED taxiway lighting, LED REILs (Runway End Identifier Lights), LED PAPIs and remote control operating systems. The lights will be housed in portable trailers, which will charge, transport and store the portable LED runway lighting system. In addition to supplying portable LED airfield lighting, Aviation Renewables will be on-site to conduct technical training and commissioning for the civil aviation department personnel and airport operators in order to ensure safe operations, proper system deployment and routine maintenance schedules over the duration of the contract.

Aviation Renewables supplied the Government of NWT with extra tall 36” highly reflective edge light markers (RELMS) to add visibility to taxiway and runway lights in areas subject to large amounts of collected snow. These snowplow markers have reflective sleeves that are easily replaced when required to ensure long product lifespan. The easily installed reflective markers are a small investment to avoid costly damage of lighting equipment from snowplows.

Portable LED PAPI - 2 box (APAPI) was supplied and commissioned for use while flight testing steep approaches. Aviation Renewables supplied the product and expertise as part of the certification process for an aircraft’s ability to operate into an airport in the Caribbean.

Aviation Renewables delivered a retro reflective helipad marking system for a mine site in Canada. The versatile system will allow the helipad to receive MEDEVAC helicopters in the event of an emergency. The system exceeds the requirements of the helicopter operator, and consists of reflective helipad marker cones, and autonomous solar lighting.

Aviation Renewables completed a high mast LED Apron Lighting retrofit project at Lynden Pindling International Airport (NAS) in Nassau, Bahamas. The new LED apron lighting system offers exceptional savings in electricity, maintenance and equipment costs with a 10-year warranty on performance, parts and labour.
