Introducing the New Terminal One at JFK Airport
About the overall terminal project:
- 2.4M square foot, state-of-the-art international terminal, the largest at JFK
- Valued at $9.5B, the first phase of the NTO development is the largest single-asset project financing in U.S. history
- First 14 gates are expected to be open in 2026, with completion of the remaining 9 gates anticipated by 2030
Why Port Authority & New Terminal One Sought a Microgrid:
Sustainability Targets
āThis first-of-its-kind microgrid solution is a major and exciting milestone in New Terminal Oneās commitment to reducing our carbon footprint and setting a new industry standard on sustainability.āĀ
