UAE focuses on cutting-edge technology and sustainability, revolutionizing the ground support equipment market.
Integration with ground support equipment market technology that enhances efficiency and sustainability has earned the UAE a solid position in aviation management worldwide. Examples of major airports utilizing ground equipment innovations include DXB for Dubai International and AUH of Abu Dhabi.

The UAE government has been able to offer innovations in the GSE sector, primarily through emphasis on sustainability and efficiency-driven policies. For instance, under the Dubai Carbon Abatement Strategy, airports are encouraged to join the green technology train, which includes electric and solar-powered GSE. The country, too, has partnership tie-ups with global manufacturers, including TLD and JBT AeroTech.
Therefore, high technology, such as advanced cargo loaders and automated passenger bridges, can be installed. International manufacturer partnerships assisted in introducing the most up-to-date equipment into the UAE airports, including self-driven baggage handling systems and environmentally friendly ground power units. Investment by the UAE in the highest technologies and strategic partnerships set the country an example regarding ground support operations being effective and ecologically safe.
The UAE government is actively driving the shift of the aviation industry towards more green technologies. For example, in May 2024, the largest airline and travel services company, dnata, announced it had significantly upgraded its GSE fleet. The company has signed five-year framework agreements with top producers of more than US$210m. This shows that the deal proves the organization's will towards mechanizing machinery to ensure productivity and safety and minimize its negative environmental footprint regarding going green. Dnata, in October 2024, further sealed orders for a fresh new stock of 14 electric 180kVA GPUs, which will be serviced from the fleet at Dubai International Airport. It will also save about 550,000 liters of fuel burnt yearly and US$4 million yearly for its ground operation, thus reducing its carbon footprint.
