Green Aviation Market to 2020 - Stringent Regulations to Drive Investment in Green Technologies

Green Aviation Market to 2020 - Stringent Regulations to Drive Investment in Green Technologies provides key information and analysis on the market opportunities in the Green Aviation Market. The report provides the latest information on the global green aviation revenues with a detailed assessment of the market forces influencing the global green aviation market. It provides the market information on the green aviation market industry on the basis of geography. Aviation emits large volumes of CO2 each year, and whilst only being 2% of overall global production it still amounts to an additional 670 million tonnes in a year. That volume has doubled since 1990 and is predicted to more than double again by 2025 to 1480 million tonnes. There are also other pollutants such as NOX created by inefficiencies in combustion that cause other environmental damage. Some of these pollutants damage the ozone layer that shields us from harmful radiation. These pollutants are even stronger in their impact because they are released at high altitudes. Scientists predict in different research that the total warming impact of aviation’s emissions can be multiplied anywhere between 1.9 and 2.7 times, or even more in some scenarios, to estimate their true impact. Growing concerns over climate change and anticipated rise in Carbon prices and increased cost of compliance are major drivers for the green aviation industry. The International Energy Agency has recently warned that the price of carbon credits will need to reach $50 per tonne of CO2 by 2020 and $110 by 2030 to make high-tech solutions to climate change economically attractive. Carbon permits now trade at less than $20 a tonne in the European Union. The report can help aircraft operators make sense of carbon planning and purchasing.
