On Tuesday, Brazil’s global aerospace giant\u00a0Embraer<\/a>\u00a0announced it had partnered with Air New Zealand as both organizations march towards\u00a0zero-emissions aviation<\/a>. In a reciprocal move, the two will collaborate on each other’s existing zero-emissions projects.<\/p>\n

Energia and Air New Zealand a good fit<\/h2>\n

The coming together of two like-minded aviation companies will add significant expertise to their sustainability programs and bring unique insights from the airline and aircraft OEM perspectives.\u00a0Air New Zealand<\/a>\u00a0has agreed to join Embraer’s Energia Advisory Group, while Embraer will be a long-term partner in Air New Zealand’s Mission Next Gen Aircraft initiative.<\/p>\n

The Energia project encompasses Embraer’s range of sustainable concepts for\u00a0regional aircraft<\/a>\u00a0capable of carrying up to 50 passengers. First detailed in 2021, Energia is a crucial plank of Embrarer’s pathway to net zero aviation by 2050 and was\u00a0updated in a live-streamed presentation in December last year.<\/a><\/p>\n

In essence, Energia involves four new aircraft concepts focusing on 19-30 seater designs powered by hybrid-electric and\u00a0hydrogen-electric<\/a>\u00a0propulsion. As propulsion technology evolves, the program looks at interim steps towards net zero by 2050, aiming to reduce carbon emissions by 50% starting from 2030.<\/p>\n

As well as its long-haul flights across the Pacific, Air New Zealand (ANZ) has an extensive\u00a0short-haul<\/a>\u00a0domestic network to more than 20 regions, with many routes ideally suited to the types of regional aircraft Embraer has in mind for Energia. President and CEO of Embraer Commercial Aviation, Arjan Meijer, recognized this synergy, saying in yesterday’s announcement that as the global leader in regional aircraft Embraer is ideally positioned to bring disruptive technologies to smaller aircraft first.<\/p>\n

Air New Zealand wants to lead net-zero aviation<\/h2>\n

In November, Air New Zealand CEO\u00a0Greg Foran set out the carrier’s roadmap to net zero commercial aviation by 2050<\/a>, saying that he wants the airline to lead the world in reaching this ambitious goal. The presentation announced the Mission Next Generation Aircraft program, which aims to begin replacing the\u00a0De Havilland Q300<\/a>\u00a0turboprop fleet of more than 50 aircraft with sustainable aircraft from 2030.<\/p>\n

Picking up that baton is ANZ chief sustainability officer Kiri Hannifin, who said this ambitious goal would not be met by a “business as usual” approach. She added that Mission Next Gen Aircraft aims to accelerate the technology and infrastructure needed to\u00a0decarbonize<\/a>\u00a0the airline’s domestic flights “by joining forces with the world’s leading aircraft developers, innovators and infrastructure providers.”<\/p>\n

Another factor in Air New Zealand’s favor is the nation’s abundance of power produced from renewable sources. This will be especially useful as the partners delve deeper into using hydrogen-powered aircraft, such as Embraer’s H2\u00a0Fuel Cell<\/a>\u00a0concept.<\/p>\n

This is a great collaboration between Embraer and Air New Zealand, which has the potential to push emission-free regional aviation along at a faster rate than we have seen previously. It will be fascinating to see it develop over the coming months and years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
