Alliance for Zero-Emission Aviation

27 June 2022: The European Commission formally launched the Alliance for Zero-Emission Aviation (AZEA) at the ILA Berlin air show on 24 June.

The Alliance for Zero Emission Aviation aims to prepare the aviation ecosystem for the entry into service of hydrogen- and electric-powered aircraft, to ensure that air transport contributes to Europe's 2050 climate neutrality objective. It will gather representatives of aircraft manufacturers, airlines, airports, energy companies and fuel providers, standardisation and certification agencies, passenger and environmental interest groups and regulators.

The aim is to identify all barriers to the entry into commercial service of these aircraft, establish recommendations and a roadmap to address them, promote investment projects and create synergies and momentum amongst members.

As from this moment anyone interested in working to prepare the entry-into-service of hydrogen and (battery-)electric aircraft can apply to join the Alliance.
