3 Oil Companies & 3 Polluting Carmakers Among Top 10 Recipients of Green Funds! WTH?
Well, this was a shocker. I just saw word from Transport & Environment thanks to one of our news aggregators here that three “polluting carmakers” were among the 10 companies to receive the most European Union “green funds” investments. But even more shocking than that, another three of the top … [continued]
World’s 1st In-Flight Study of Commercial Aircraft Using 100% Sustainable Aviation Fuel Shows Significant Non-CO2…
In-flight measurements from an A350 aircraft using 100% sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) show a significant reduction in soot particle emissions and formation of contrail ice crystals compared to using conventional aviation fuel Global model simulations estimate 26% reduction in contrails’ climate impact when using 100% SAF Results from the world’s … [continued]
Electricity & Airplanes — Lowering The Carbon Emissions Of Flight
Electrification of airplanes and the airline business is moving ahead with new vehicles from Mercedes and Airbus.
Future Fleet of Low-Emission RoRos to Use Norsepower Rotor Sails
The next generation Norsepower Rotor Sail™ control system provides Louis Dreyfus Armateurs with better efficiency and real-time savings reports, guaranteeing the timely and environmentally friendly moving of Airbus aircraft components. Suresnes, France — In an historical wind propulsion deal, the French shipowner, Louis Dreyfus Armateurs SAS (LDA) and the Finnish mechanical sail company, … [continued]
Hydrogen Electric Aircraft Scheme Hatched By EU Nations
Plans for hydrogen infrastructure are being hatched at European airports to support fuel cell electric aircraft.
EU Investment Rules Will Greenwash 90% of Airbus’ Polluting Planes
Transport & Environment (T&E) was part of the Platform on Sustainable Finance until 14th of September 2022 and left the group over a lack of independence. T&E does not support the criteria under consideration for aviation, as it greenwashes the aircraft manufacturing’s legacy business and provides no incentives for genuinely green investments. Airbus, the EU’s main aircraft manufacturer, was co-drafting criteria for its own products.
Wind Power To Cut Cargo Ship Emissions 20%
Wind power can help solve the shipping industry’s carbon woes, as demonstrated by the new Seawing sail from the French firm Airseas.
United And Airbus Take Different Paths To Zero Emissions Air Travel
United Airlines and Airbus are working on ways to reduce emissions from air travel by using hydrogen and sodium-ion batteries.
Airbus Designed A Cold Heart For Its New Zero-Emission Plane In Record Time
Normally, we don’t cover hydrogen stuff much here at CleanTechnica. Well, at least not seriously. Often, we’re making fun of it! Why? Because for most applications, hydrogen is a terrible way to store energy. The only really clean way to make the stuff at this point is using electricity to … [continued]
