Charter

The purpose of the Green Engineering Program Committee

(GEPC) is to promote a holistic, systems approach to improved

energy efficiency, sustainability, renewable energy and ‘cradle-to-

cradle’ design. GEPC serves as the AIAA focal point for all “green”

aerospace-related programs and technologies, and works

synergistically with the appropriate technical committees to assure

that the AIAA membership is adequately informed about all aspects

of this critical aerospace activity.
