For the aerospace and defense industry, the breakup of General Electric has spurred a flurry of brainstorming over how GE Aviation could combine with other A&D assets to form the next industry colossus.
The family of Energia-branded concepts—with all-electric, hybrid-electric or hydrogen-fueled propulsion for low emissions and noise—are aimed to enter into service between 2030 and 2040.
Sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) have the potential to greatly reduce aviation’s climate impact. They could already be used as “drop-in” fuels to power the existing fleet sustainably. But what exactly are SAFs? And what kind of benefits do they have?
