Objective:
- Assess nine possible pathways to achieve net-zero direct emissions from avaition
Case:
Methodology:
- Carbon emission: $F = D(\frac{E}{D})(\frac{F}{E})= Def$
- Kaya formula
- Scenario: energy switching
Data Source: partial open
- Carbon emission: IEA and CMP
- Passenger demand: ICAO
- Freight demand: world bank
Findings:
- Without ambitious reductions in air transport demand and improvements in aircraft energy efficiency, decarbonmizing aviation will require important quantities of drop-in sustainable aviation fuels (SAF)
- net-zero emission relies on the carbon dioxide removals (CDR)
- High costs make fuel switching the most difficult in developing regions, where aviation demand growing the fastest
