Resumo(s)

Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from aircraft transport is crucial to achieving climate goals. In this sense, the present study looks into the suitability of e-fuels such as e-kerosene in reducing CO2 emissions. The Fleet System Dynamic Model is employed to examine data and predict future trends in line with the Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection. While the findings suggest that achieving carbon-neutral growth is possible, it might take longer than current forecasts indicate. For instance, considering an e-fuel production rate of 15%, it is possible to cut emissions by half around 2060 concerning 2005 levels.
