Honeywell Scores Huge APU Contract
Honeywell's Aerospace Division, based in Phoenix, has won a $4 billion contract to supply the new long-range A350 aircraft with the HGT1500 auxiliary power unit (APU).
The new HGT1500 is a high-power density gas turbine APU configured to provide pneumatic and electric power to support aircraft operations. The pneumatic and electric power supports cabin conditioning and main engine starting during ground operations and emergency power for in-flight operation.
