9 Study mitigation options Study title Key outputs used for this study Climate Related Air Traffic Management Sustainable Fuels for Aviation Marginal Costs of Environmental Abatement for Aviation Environmental Aspects of Fleet Turnover, Retirement and Life Cycle Environmental Effects of Aircraft Operations and Airspace Charging Regimes Air Transport in the European Emissions Trading Scheme Aircraft fuel efficiency improvement potential due to advanced ATM Fuel-cycle characteristics of second-generation (cellulosic) synthetic oil products Main economic and technological char. of selected mitigation technologies Retirement of existing aircraft and market penetration characteristics of new aircraft Capacities of European Airports Range of carbon prices to prioritize emissions trading scenarios

10 Study approach Socio-economic variables, oil price development, carbon price trajectory from three internally consistent scenario families (U.S. Climate Change Science Program) Selected scenarios are consistent to carbon prices in Omega study and would lead to 450/550 ppm CO 2 -eq atmospheric stabilization Adoption of Omega study mitigation technologies: airlines choose among competing technologies based upon cost-effectiveness (payback period = 7 years for new technology)

11 European air transport system evolution

12 Policy case vs. unconstrained reference case IGSM reference case demand requires at least two-fold capacity at LHR, CDG by CO 2 emission reductions result from adoption of mitigation technologies and reduced demand

13 Policy case

14 Technology adoption Complex interactions - uptake of one mitigation measure can lower future uptake of other measures Largest effects on lifecycle emissions from SESAR and 50/50 BTL/jet fuel blends BTL land-use implications significant Open rotors enter in highcost scenarios only Retrofit/maintenance measures experience limited adoption IGSM Scenario

16 Summary Demand for transportation likely to continue to grow strongly, and for aviation in particular ( fixed budgets of money and time expenditures) Rising potential for reducing aviation-related CO 2 - emissions, mainly offered through SESAR and 2 nd generation biofuels Inefficiencies result in higher than system-optimum flight frequencies implications for market consolidation
