Results from the DEPA 2070 Project

Development of Global Aviation CO₂ Emissions up to the Year 2070

The animations illustrate the projected CO₂ emissions in the conservative and progressive development scenarios of the DLR project DEPA 2070. Although air traffic is expected to nearly double between 2019 and 2070, both DEPA 2070 scenarios – conservative and progressive – show a significant reduction in CO₂ emissions. This positive trend is primarily based on the assumption of technological advancements and a shift in energy sources used in aviation.

DEPA 2070 Progressive Fleet Scenario

In the progressive scenario, hydrogen aircraft and electric propulsion systems enter the market at an early stage, enabling a particularly high CO₂ savings potential of up to 89 percent per 100 passenger-kilometres.

DEPA 2070 Conservative Fleet Scenario

In the conservative scenario, the technological shift takes place significantly later, with a gradual transition to sustainable aviation fuels (SAF). SAF play an important role in both scenarios and are, in particular, the main factor in the conservative scenario for a potential CO₂ reduction of emissions per 100 passenger-kilometres by 23 percent.

Podcast Episode on Germany’s Aviation Competitiveness

Dr. Sven Maertens from the DLR Institute of Air Transport recently joined Prof. Dr. Achim I. Czerny, Chair of the German Aviation Research Society (GARS), for an in-depth discussion on his 3A video podcast on YouTube – a platform where he brings together academics and professionals to reflect on current issues in air transport.

Let's talk German aviation market! How competitive is it? How to improve the competitiveness?
The episode focuses on a recent study conducted by the DLR Institute of Air Transport on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport (BMDV). The report analyses location cost factors in German aviation.
