Emissions trading systems (ETS) in Europe are undergoing a transition post-Brexit, with the EU contemplating the incorporation of the International Civil Aviation Organization’s (ICAO) carbon offset program and new targets coming from the EU Green Deal, advised Bruce Parry, director of environment for the International Business Aviation Council. Parry provided an overview of the changes in Europe during a webinar on “Managing Your Carbon Footprint” on Tuesday as part of NBAA’s virtual Flight Operations Conference.
At the beginning of the year, the UK began managing participating aircraft based in its territories under its own ETS programs. Parry said UK authorities should have already reached out to participating operators, but new operators should contact the appropriate authority within their particular region of the UK. Operators seeking free allocations of emissions allowances will need to apply for them by the end of March, he added.

(Environmental and Energy Study Institute) Briefing Series: By Air, Land, and Sea: Navigating the Climate Future The
Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) held a briefing series on climate mitigation and adaptation in the transportation sector. The series covered ports, aviation, and public transit.
As commercial aviation recovers from the COVID-19 contraction, it will be critical to foster strategies and policy to help the industry reduce its climate impact. In this briefing, we examined two of these strategies sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) and aircraft technology improvements.
Rep. Julia Brownley (D-CA) delivered opening remarks.
Chris Tindal of the Commercial Aviation Alternative Fuels Initiative (CAAFI) addressed the potential of low-carbon sustainable aviation fuels with life-cycle emissions substantially below conventional fossil-based jet fuel and the policy formula for scaling up the SAF industry.
