An insightful piece by Doug Arent at National Renewable Energy Laboratory. Ambitious decarbonization goals require unprecedented cross-sector collaboration. The name of the game will be unconventional partnerships to transform competitors into collaborators, enabling us to move faster and in a more commercial way. Trusted partners like NREL, who foster unity and collective action, are essential. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who attended the 2024 Sustainable Aviation Energy Conference hosted by DFW International Airport and NREL. https://lnkd.in/gm7rrkhU

Accelerating breakthroughs in emerging technology to decarbonize aviation
About us
Aviation is a challenging but critical sector to decarbonize. The share of global CO2 emissions from aviation will grow from 3% today to almost 20% in 2050 if the aviation industry maintains business-as-usual. A portfolio of solutions is required to reach net-zero, and breakthroughs in emerging technologies (e.g., next-gen bio-based SAF, PtL synfuel, hydrogen-enabled technologies) are a critical component. Aviation Climate Taskforce (ACT) is founded on the purpose to accelerate breakthroughs in critical emerging technologies by 10 years. We invest to make these technologies more energy efficient, more affordable, and available at-scale sooner. We unite a global group of industry leaders committed to decarbonizing aviation. We recognize that if the aviation sector aims to decarbonize, the work needs to begin now.

Gratitude is owed to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory for their invaluable convening power at this week's Sustainable Aviation Energy Conference, and to the Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) for their generous sponsorship. It was wonderful to come together and delineate pragmatic pathways critical to success.
Ending an inspiring event that gathered motivated innovators from across the aviation world to imagine and iterate a sustainable aviation future. It’s always a pleasure to work side by side with fabulous colleagues from the NREL Partnerships and Communications teams to convene important discussions! Thank you to DFW Airport and CAMI for your continued partnership with NREL. #nrel #dfwairport #cami #nrepartnerships

Curious about how Direct Air Capture (DAC) works? Dive into the science behind this innovative #technology and discover the process of extracting carbon dioxide from the air to combat climate change!

Direct Air Capture (DAC) is a step towards addressing climate change by extracting carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere. Unlike conventional methods that prevent emissions or rely on natural ecosystems for carbon absorption, DAC deploys technology to capture the CO2 that has already been released into the atmosphere. Hence, it gives access to an abundant carbon source that is suitable for fuel production and thus for a circular carbon economy. As one of the sectors with significant carbon emissions, aviation can greatly benefit from DAC in the longer run by expanding the supply of synthetic aviation fuel with a low carbon footprint. This approach has the potential to make air travel more #sustainable and contributes to the industry's efforts in achieving net zero emissions. #ACT #CarbonRemoval #CarbonMarkets #Sustainability #ClimateAction #NetZero #Climate #SustainableAviation #DecarbonizeAviation #AviationIndustry #Innovation
