DALLAS — DFW International Airport will get $35 million from the federal government to cover some of the costs of a new zero-carbon power plant, part of an effort to cut the airport’s greenhouse emissions and hit ambitious environmental goals.
The $35 million grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation and the Federal Aviation Administration is part of the latest round of money coming to airports from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill passed in the fall. The Biden administration is set to announce about $1 billion in grants Thursday to airports across the country.
The bill already gave DFW Airport $63.2 million for other projects, but those are still being determined.
