…Wh/kg, while batteries today are 250 Wh/kg and will at best reach 1,250 Wh/kg (data here). We have evaluated sustainable aviation fuels, such as renewable jet, biogas-to-liquids, bio-ethanol-to-jet and e-fuels,…
…cart This data-file captures the fuel economy of planes, i.e., passenger jets in commercial aviation, starting from first principles in a flexible model, which can be stress-tested, and contrasted with…
…carbon offsets for aviation. $499.00 – Purchase Checkout Added to cart Three biogas to liquids projects are in progress to help decarbonize aviation fuels. Each project is briefly outlined on page 2….
…was necessary. And you could sink an American warship with 1-3 kamikaze planes, versus 8-24 bombers and fighters. It made sense if you had an excess of personnel and planes,…
This 15-page report evaluates a pathway for sustainable aviation fuels, feeding biogas into a Fischer-Tropsch reactor. Three projects are in progress. But bio-GTL will likely cost 3x more than conventional…
…would most likely end up as an outright tax on travel, as 2-4x higher CO2 prices again would be required to incentivize the use of alternative, low carbon aviation fuels….
…demand has already peaked, at 50Mbpd in 2005, had softened to 48Mbpd in 2019 and is seen falling to 20Mbpd by 2050, effectively all for planes and freight, which are…
…<500-mile trips. Planes are c90% of >1,000-mile trips. But the 500-1,000 mile category is competitive: planes rose from c40% in 2008 to 75% share in 2017. We find that driving…
…discussed is the opportunity in this imbalance. Hence this note highlights one such opportunity, based on an intriguing patent from Chevron, which could convert ethylene into diesel and jet fuel,…
…jet fuel demand grew most in 2023, rising +1Mbpd to 7.0 Mbpd, yet jet fuel is the only major product category where demand still remains below 2019 levels, which were…
