Njengoba imboni yezokundiza emhlabeni wonke ingena onyakeni omusha, nazi izibuyekezo zakamuva ezivela embonini emayelana ne-#FlyNetZero kanye nohambo lokususa ikhabhoni embonini yezindiza.
SAF
Njengoba imboni yezindiza iphendukela ku-2023, eYurophu, ipayipi le-NATO elihlinzeka ngesikhumulo sezindiza saseBrussels ngophalafini lavulwa ngo-1 January ukuze kuthuthwe i-SAF. Izindiza ZaseBrussels athuthe inqwaba yokuqala yamafutha endiza esimeme ahanjiswa ngalo mzila ngosuku olufanayo esikhumulweni sezindiza saseBrussels. I-Teesside International Airport isebenzisane ne-Air France-KLM ohlelweni lwenkampani yezindiza i-SAF, ibe isikhumulo sezindiza sokuqala sase-UK ukwenza njalo.
Ngakolunye uhlangothi lwechibi, uMnyango Wezamandla wase-US umemezele imali engaphezu kuka-$100m yokuxhasa ukukhiqizwa kwe-biofuel yase-US, njengoba abaphathi beBiden besebenzela ukunqamula ukukhishwa kwegesi ebamba ukushisa kwezokuthutha kanye nokuhlangabezana nezinhloso zesimo sezulu, kusho umnyango.
UMnyango uhlela ukunikeza u-$118m kumaphrojekthi angu-17 aklanyelwe ukusheshisa ukukhiqizwa kwe-biofuels. ESifundazweni Sase-Illinois, abenzi bomthetho bezifundazwe bagunyaze umthetho wokudala ikhredithi yentela ka-$1.50/USG ye-SAF izinkampani zezindiza ezingazisebenzisa ukwanelisa zonke noma ingxenye yezikweletu zazo zokusebenzisa intela yezwe. Umthetho uzodala ikhredithi yentela yawo wonke amagalani e-SAF athengiswe noma asetshenziswa inkampani yezindiza e-Illinois. I-Honeywell isanda kuthola ukulethwa kwayo kokuqala kwe-SAF ekhempasini yayo ye-Phoenix Engines ukuze isekele ukuthuthukiswa nokuhlolwa kokukhiqizwa kwamayunithi wamandla asizayo (ama-APU) nezinjini ezinyakazayo esizeni, kanye nokuhlolwa kwamayunithi afakwe esikhungweni sokukhanda nokulungisa i-Honeywell.
EMpumalanga Ephakathi, iMasdar, ADNOC, bp, Tadweer (Abu Dhabi Waste Management Company) kanye ne-Etihad Airways bamemezele isivumelwano sokwenza ucwaningo oluhlangene mayelana nokukhiqizwa kwe-SAF neminye imikhiqizo e-UAE, efana nodizili ovuselelekayo kanye ne-naphtha, kusetshenziswa. udoti oqinile kamasipala (MSW) kanye ne-hydrogen evuselelekayo. Ngaleso sikhathi, i-Emirates iqede ngempumelelo ukuhlola injini yaphansi kwenye yezinjini zayo i-GE90 ku-Boeing 777-300ER isebenzisa u-100% SAF. Umqashi osanda kusungulwa wase-Saudi Arabia i-AviLease ufinyelele isivumelwano sesikhashana ne-Saudi Investment Recycling Company (SIRC) sokukhiqiza nokusatshalaliswa kukaphethiloli osimeme ezweni.
E-Asia, i-Asiana Airlines yamemezela ukwenza isivumelwano ne-Shell sokuvikela i-SAF kusukela ngo-2026. Izinkampani ezimbili ezihamba phambili zezindiza zase-Japan, i-All Nippon Airways ne-Japan Airlines, zivumile ukuthola i-SAF kumkhiqizi wase-US u-Raven ezivumelwaneni ezihilela indlu yokuhweba ezinze e-Tokyo, i-Itochu. Izinkampani zezindiza zizothenga i-SAF iRaven ehlose ukuyikhiqiza ngokuhweba ekuqaleni kuka-2025, iyisebenzise ezindizeni zamazwe ngamazwe.
Emkhathini
Kulandela isivumelwano sika-$175m ne-Aviation Partners Boeing (APB), Ryanair ifake i-Split Scimitar Winglets kweyokuqala kwezingama-400 zendiza yayo i-Boeing 737-800 Next Generation. Lokhu kuguqulwa kuzothuthukisa ukusebenza kahle kukaphethiloli wezindiza kuze kufike ku-1.5%, kunciphise ukusetshenziswa kukaphethiloli konyaka kweRyanair ngamalitha ayizigidi ezingama-65 kanye nokukhishwa kwekhabhoni ngamathani ayi-165,000. Inkampani yesikhumulo sezindiza yaseFinland i-Finavia ishicilele izinhloso zayo ezintsha zokusimama ezihlanganisa ukunciphisa ukukhishwa kwekhabhoni “cishe ku-zero”. I-Wizz Air ibike ukuthi isilinganiso sayo sokukhishwa kwekhabhoni ngo-2022 sifinyelele ku-55.2 amagremu umgibeli/ikhilomitha, ngaphansi ngo-15.4% kunango-2021. Lokhu kumelela umphumela wayo ophansi kakhulu waminyaka yonke wekhabhoni orekhodiwe onyakeni owodwa wekhalenda.
Ugesi kanye ne-hydrogen propulsion
I-Sweden ithembise ukutshala imali okungenani engu-SKr15m ($1.4m) unyaka ngamunye ocwaningweni nasekusungulweni okusha ukuze kusekelwe ukwamukelwa ngokushesha kwezindiza ezisebenza ngogesi ezweni. Ngaphezu kwalokho, uhulumeni waseSweden ujube ukuba kuhlaziywe ukuthi kuyenzeka yini ukugunyaza ukusetshenziswa kwezindiza ezisebenza ngogesi emigwaqweni yesibopho senkonzo yomphakathi (PSO).
"Ukufunda ukundiza ngokuphephile izindiza ezisebenza nge-hydrogen kuzoba yinselelo yesizukulwane" kusho uChristopher Raymond, i-CSO ye-Boeing, ku-op-ed ku-Fortune, ephawula ukuthi mancane amathuba okuthi sizobona indiza indiza ku-hydrogen ngaphambi kuka-2050 futhi. isidingo sokugxila ekutholakaleni kanye nenani le-SAF: “Umhlaba kumele ulinganise amafutha endiza aqhubekayo angaphonswa ezindizeni ezikhona namuhla, kuyilapho kuhlolwa ubuchwepheshe bokuhambisa ikhabhoni njenge-hydrogen nogesi obungaba nomthelela engxenyeni yesibili yekhulunyaka.”
Ubuchwepheshe
I-NASA kanye ne-Boeing bazosebenza ndawonye kuphrojekthi ye-Sustainable Flight Demonstrator yokwakha, ukuhlola kanye nokundizisa indiza enciphisa ukungcola okuphuma endaweni eyodwa kule minyaka eyishumi. I-NASA isayine Isivumelwano Se-Space Act esixhaswe ngezimali ne-Boeing lapho izohlinzeka khona ngezimali eziyizigidi ezingama-425 zamaRandi ngezinkokhelo eziyingqopha-mlando kuyilapho i-Boeing nabalingani bayo bemboni benikela ngamaRandi ayizigidi ezingama-725. Umkhankaso wonyaka wokuhlola indiza uhlelelwe ukuqala e-NASA Armstrong Flight Research Center, eCalifornia, ngo-2028.
I-Delta Air Lines yethula ilebhu emisha yezindiza ukuze kusheshiswe ucwaningo, ukuklama nokuhlola ikusasa elizinzile lokuhamba ngendiza. I-Delta Sustainable Skies Lab izofaka umsebenzi oqhubekayo kuyo yonke i-Delta namuhla, igqugquzele ukuqanjwa kabusha kwemboni ephazamisayo, kanye nobukhulu bezobuchwepheshe nezenzo ezaziwayo ukuze kufinyelelwe umgomo we-Delta wokukhipha ingqikithi ye-zero ngo-2050.
Ezezimali
I-Pegasus Airlines ivale imali ebolekiwe yokuqala ngqa ehambisana nokusimama yendiza ukuze kuxhaswe izindiza ezintsha eziyishumi ze-Airbus A321neo. I-Air France-KLM inyuse u-€1bn kusuka kwibhondi exhumene nokusimama eyingqophamlando kusukela kubhondi yayo yokuqala exhunywe ukuqina (SLB), okukholakala ukuthi iyibhondi yokuqala ye-Euro yalolu hlobo emakethe yomphakathi evela endizeni yezindiza.
