The sky’s the limit in the future of green flight

The EU is committed to developing solutions for reducing the environmental footprint of air transport. In line with the Clean Aviation Joint Undertaking, research and industry will join forces to accelerate the evolution of innovation. With this in mind, the EU-funded SMR ACAP project will focus on the small/medium range (SMR) aircraft architecture and technology. Specifically, it will steer and manage the definition of the targeted SMR aircraft configurations with all key performance features required for the SMR architecture. It will provide the digital collaborative framework with tools, means and skills needed to achieve the Clean Aviation goals: reduce emissions by 30 % compared to a 2020 state-of-the-art technology and replace 75 % of the fleet by 2050.
