Cluster of enablers:

An extraordinary technological effort to define the air vehicles of the future that minimise environmental impact and energy consumption

Capability

Capability:

To design other on-board systems that minimise environmental impact and energy consumption

Sub capability:

To define an air transport system that is capable of continually optimising for minimum environmental impact and energy consumption

R&I needs:

- Develop functions for optimal Flight/Ground operations in ATS - Develop functions for UAS insertion in General Air Traffic

Achievements

2020:

* Multicriteria Flight Optimisation for all flight phases (Acoustic, C02/Fuel burn, NOx, time, costs)

2035:

* Capability of real-time flight strategy/trajectory adaptation for optimal fuel comsumption/environmental impact including contrails, as required
