PDF
  • Our aspiration is for zero emission routes connecting different parts of the UK by 2030. Transport: Aviation · Target year: 2030
  • We will target airport operations to be zero emission by 2040 and support further reductions within the existing aviation system.Transport: Infrastructure And Roads, Aviation · Target year: 2040
  • We are setting a target for domestic flights to reach net zero by 2040, and next year will launch a consultation on how this will be implemented. Transport: Aviation · Target year: 2040
  • We are introducing a CO2 emissions reduction trajectory that sees aviation emissions peak in 2019. This trajectory from 2025 to 2050, is based on our "High ambition" scenario, and sets ambitious in-sector targets of 35.4 MtCO2e in 2030, 28.4 MtCO2e in 2040, and 19.3 MtCO2e in 2050.Transport: Aviation · Target year: 2050
  • By 2025 we are committing to have at least five UK SAF plants under construction and a SAF mandate in place with a target of at least 10% SAF by 2030.Transport: Fuels, Aviation · Target year: 2030
