Global Aviation Emissions Could Be Halved Through Maximizing Efficiency Gains

50 pc of global aviation emissions could be reduced through efficiency-boosting strategies: Study - The Tribune

Increasing passenger numbers to maximum seating configuration for most efficient aircraft would reduce emissions by 22-57 per cent, says study.

Global aviation emissions could be halved through maximizing efficiency gains

A new study co-led by the University of Oxford has found that global aviation emissions could be reduced by 50–75% through combining three strategies to boost efficiency: flying only the most fuel-efficient aircraft, switching to all-economy layouts, and increasing passenger loads.

50% of global aviation emissions could be reduced through efficiency-boosting strategies: Study

A new study reveals that global aviation emissions could be slashed by up to 50% through smarter strategies. Flying only the most fuel-efficient planes, adopting all-economy seating, and maximizing passenger loads are key. Even immediate, strategic deployment of existing efficient aircraft could cut emissions by 11%, offering a swift path to greener skies.

New study shows low fare model reduces CO2 emissions

Prioritising all-economy cabins, maximum passenger loads, and using only the most fuel-efficient aircraft could slash global aviation emissions by up to 75%, according to new academic study led by the University of Oxford. The research, published in the journal Communications Earth & Environment , suggests that the aviation industry’s primary decarbonisation tools, such as the UN’s CORSIA offsetting scheme and the EU’s ReFuelEU mandate for Susta…

Environmental News Network - Global Aviation Emissions Could be Halved Through Maximising Efficiency Gains, New Study Shows

A new study co-led by the University of Oxford has found that global aviation emissions could be reduced by 50-75% through combining three strategies to boost efficiency: flying only the most fuel-efficient aircraft, switching to all-economy layouts, and increasing passenger loads. Crucially, the study shows that around a 11% reduction in global aviation emissions is achievable immediately, by using the most efficient aircraft that airlines alre…
