NextGen goal to increase capacity is dependent upon addressing & mitigating aviation environmental impacts & dealing with related energy issues
Meeting NextGen Environmental Challenges
1. Improve science and modeling2. Accelerate operational changes 3. Mature new aircraft technology 4. Develop renewable fuels5. Examine policies & market-based
measures
• Absolute reduction of significant community noise and air quality emissions impacts
• Reduce significant aviation impacts associated with water quality
• Improve NAS energy efficiency and, supply of and access to, alternative fuel sources
• Limit/reduce the impact of aviation greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions on the global climate
5-Pillar approach to develop solutionsNextGen environmental goals

FAA CLEEN Program
• Address NextGen environmental goals in partnership with industry
• Mature promising energy efficient, clean and quiet technologies
• Advance renewable alternative fuels for aviation
• Assess technology suitability for retrofit or re-engine
• Meet national R&D goals

CLEEN Program Goals (continued)Advance use of “drop-in” alternative fuels in aircraft
systems focusing on renewable options
Life Cycle GHG Emissions (gCO2e/MJ)
• No compromise in safety
• Successful demonstration
• Quantification of environmental impacts, costs and benefits

CLEEN Program Goals (continued)Alternative fuel transition strategies, including:
• Consideration of production in sufficient quantities to meet commercial aviation’s needs.
• Use of existing fuel infrastructure
9Federal AviationAdministration
AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting
January 4, 2010
• Limited to demonstration and assessment of alternative fuels– Testing required to support fuel qualification,
specification development and production potential.
– Does not include funding for development of alternative fuels production capabilities, except production which may be needed to support ASTM approval.
• Quantification of costs and benefits
CLEEN Solicitation - Alternative Fuels
10Federal AviationAdministration

January 4, 2010
• Advance alternative jet fuels (which may include a blend with conventional jet fuel)– Economically viable and reduces the life-cycle carbon
footprint – does not compete for land/water resources necessary
for food production.
• Evaluate the effects of alternative fuels on aircraft/engine performance.
• Assess emissions effects (relative to Jet-A) of using alternative fuels
CLEEN Solicitation - Alternative Fuels
