The path to zero emission flight: the Commission seeks public opinion

The Commission is launching today a public consultation on preparing for the operations of zero emission aircraft. The consultation is a first step towards the recently announced preparation of an Alliance on Zero Emission Aviation.[1] The consultation seeks the views of stakeholders in the value chain on how the Alliance can best promote the transition to carbon-neutral flight, for example with regard to the impact of hydrogen-powered and electric propulsion on airport infrastructures and airline operations. Stakeholders are also asked to indicate what part they want to play in promoting the goals of the Alliance. The consultation is open until 15 October 2021 via the EUSurvey platform.
