Abstract
In order to effectively combat climate change, it is imperative to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. Among various contributors to emissions, the aviation sector stands out, accounting for approximately 2% of global CO2 emissions and it is expected to increase in the coming years. To address this challenge, two primary strategies can be employed. Firstly, there is a growing interest on transitioning away from carbon-based aviation fuels towards more sustainable alternatives, such as Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAFs). These SAFs are derived from renewable sources like waste oils or industrial residues, and their production processes have a significantly lower carbon footprint compared to traditional fossil fuels.
Secondly, another avenue for reducing emissions involves the electrification of aircraft through the utilization of advanced technologies like batteries or fuel cells
