A method for operating an air-conditioning system (10) for an aircraft includes compressing ambient air (15) with a compressor (14;102) driven by a shaft (28;108) in communication with a motor (16;102) and a turbine (18;106). The method includes forwarding the compressed air to an aircraft cabin (20) for circulation and removing circulated compressed air from the aircraft cabin (20). The method also includes forwarding the circulated compressed air (20) to the turbine (18;106), depressurizing the circulated compressed air in the turbine (18;106) and capturing energy created by depressurizing the circulated compressed air.
