Short description (3 lines)

This topic consists of performing airport level assessments. These comprise the simulation of airport

air traffic applying operational aircraft fleet / traffic scenarios, as well as the definition of a set of

airports and noise / emissions modelling and quantification at these airports.

1. Background

Cross-positioned within the Clean Sky 2 Programme, the Technology Evaluator (TE) is a dedicated

evaluation platform. It has the key role of assessing the environmental impact of the technologies

developed in Clean Sky 2 and their level of success towards well-defined environmental (noise, CO2,

NOx) and societal benefits and targets.

These technologies are developed by the IADPs (Innovative Aircraft Demonstrator Platforms) and

ITDs (Integrated Technology Demonstrator projects) and clustered in coherent and mutually

compatible solution sets, defining concept aircrafts. TE will conduct assessments on the various

concept aircrafts at three levels:

Aircraft level

A Clean Sky 2 concept aircraft and its reference technology aircraft2 is compared along the same

trajectory in order to determine the environmental benefit of the Clean Sky 2 technologies,

namely noise on ground and emissions (CO2 and NOX).

Airport level

A Clean Sky 2 concept aircraft replaces its reference technology counterpart at different time

scales (2015/2020/2035/2050) in terms of airport traffic scenarios. The purpose of this

replacement approach is to evaluate the full potential of environmental benefits of Clean Sky 2

technologies to an airport area, namely noise on the ground and population impacted by certain

noise levels and emissions (CO2 and NOx).

Air transport system (ATS) level

Similarly to airport level, a Clean Sky 2 concept aircraft replaces its reference technology counterpart

at different time scales (2015/2020/2035/2050) in terms of airport traffic scenarios. However, in this

case the impact is measured at worldwide level.

Work package 4 of TE will focus on airport level assessments for aircraft applications based on

scenarios defined by the Topic Manager in agreement with the relevant Clean Sky 2 Members. This

call will address this work package, which will be coordinated by the Partner.

2. Scope of work

In this exercise, the Partner will be provided by the Topic Manager, in agreement with the relevant

Clean Sky 2 Members, with the models for:

Long range aircraft and their reference

Short and Medium Range aircraft and their reference

2 The reference technology aircraft is the current state-of-the-art in 2015.

7

Regional aircraft and their reference

Business jet aircraft and their reference

The airport impact assessments comprise:

1) environmental impact, including

noise on the ground and population impacted by certain noise levels

emissions (CO2 and NOx), including contribution to local air quality

other type of environmental assessments could be included upon further discussion with the

Topic Manager and the relevant Clean Sky 2 Members.

All airport level assessments are carried out in the frame of WP4 for aircraft traffic at and around

airports (table1 and 2).

Airport level assessments address the air traffic movements from aircraft at and around airports,

including local airspace (e.g., control zones and terminal manoeuvring areas). Within a given airport

fleet the Clean Sky 2 concept aircrafts environmental impact is assessed covering a wide range of air

traffic from business jet, regional, short/medium range and long range aircraft. After insertion of

Clean Sky 2 concept aircrafts in a number of airport fleets according to flight schedules provided by

the topic manager, the assessments will quantify the Clean Sky 2 benefits in terms of environmental

impacts but also including capacity and time efficiency.

In summary the work will cover:

1) selection of a set of airports

2) simulation of airport aircraft traffic scenarios with adequate tools

3) quantification of Clean Sky 2 environmental benefits

Airport level










This call partially addresses the ATS level for business jets by concentrating on a forecast for all types

of bizjets and movements starting from 2015, passing by 2020/2025/2030 until 2035 as input for

environmental, economic and connectivity assessments.

2. Scope

The forecast will be developed in the following steps:

a) Review of available bizjet forecasts

The Partner should compare the various available forecasts in terms of assumptions, data sources,

relevance of drivers and variables. In addition, the Partner should draft a clear and concise

comparison, highlighting the most relevant existing statistical and information gaps.


18

b) Fine-tuning of the forecasting approach

The Partner should agree with the Topic Manager which approach should be selected to pursue the

forecasting, including the assumptions, drivers and especially market potentials targeted by other

vehicles.

The forecast should focus on passenger transport and provide results on expected movements

between airports in terms of number of trips, average journey times and average distances. Based on

known airports this implies to identify drivers for extrapolation of growth and for the distribution of

flights.

The Partner should use the expected GDP growth figures from Global Insight.


Clean Sky 2 Members, with the following variables:

- expected population growth

- operational and technological parameters (travel time, costs, etc.)

When data is lacking for certain variables, the Partner should provide an approach to fill the

gaps, which will be discussed and agreed with the Topic Manager and the relevant Clean Sky

2 Members.

c) Production of forecast

The forecast shall start with 2015 based on available data. The forecast should quantify fleet and

movements for the years 2020, 2025, 2030 and 2035 and should be carried out at

country/region/world levels.
