EMISSIONS CONTAINMENT POLICY – FOUR PILLARS
 TECHNOLOGICAL PROGRESS
 INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS
 OPERATIONAL MEASURES
 ECONOMIC INSTRUMENTS
ACARE ACTION
Environmental objectives:
• 80% reduction in NOx
• 50% reduction in fuel burn and CO2 per passenger km
• 50% reduction in perceived noise per aircraft movement
Proposals include airframe and engine technologies,
alternative fuels
 INDUSTRY EXPENDITURE ON RT&D OVER 14%
OF TURNOVER ANNUALLY

2. INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS
 IPCC REPORT - EMISSIONS REDUCTION OF 612%,
IF ATM IMPROVEMENTS IMPLEMENTED
WITHIN 15 YEARS
 EU TO INTENSIFY EFFORTS TO DEVELOP THE
SINGLE SKY AND SESAME PROGRAMMES
 POLITICAL & BUDGETARY SUPPORT NEEDED
FROM THE TEN-T
3. OPERATIONAL MEASURES
 IPCC REPORT - EMISSIONS REDUCTION OF 2-6%
THROUGH OPERATIONAL MEASURES
 EU TO PROMOTE ICAO CIRCULAR 303 WHICH
IDENTIFIED OPERATIONAL MEASURES TO
LIMIT/REDUCE AIRCRAFT EMISSIONS.

4. ECONOMIC INSTRUMENTS

AVIATION INDUSTRY PROPOSAL – EMISSIONS TRADING
1.
COVERAGE - CO2 ONLY
2.
GEOGRAPHICAL SCOPE – IDEALLY WORLDWIDE, BUT IF IT IS AN EU
ETS: INTRA-EU ROUTES
3.
TRADING ENTITY - AIRCRAFT OPERATOR
4.
ALLOCATION METHOD: ALLOWANCES TO BE GRANTED TO THE
AVIATION SECTOR AT EU LEVEL, BASED ON GRANDFATHER RIGHTS
5.
EU ETS COULD BE AN INTERIM OPTION INTERPLAY WITH KYOTO OBJECTIVE: EXTENSION OF THE PROTOCOL BUT RESTRICTED TRADE
WITH THE OTHER SECTORS CURRENTLY COVERED BY THE
6.
DISTRIBUTION METHOD – BENCHMARKING, TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT
EARLY EFFORTS MADE BY AIRCRAFT OPERATORS
7.
MONITORING METHOD - MEASURED TRIP FUEL BY AIRCRAFT
OPERATORS
EQUAL ACCESSIBILITY - AIR

SUSTAINABLE MOBILITY
AVIATION IS THE ONLY MODE OF TRANSPORT
WHICH CONNECTS CARGO AND PASSENGERS
FROM THE PERIPHERAL REGIONS OF EUROPE
TO THE CENTRE, AND EUROPE TO THE REST OF
THE WORLD.
