Passenger and freight airplanes, that is, aircraft equipped for transporting passengers, freight, or mail, are the second most energy-intensive mode of transportation. In 2017, airlines carried 4.1 billion passengers worldwide, according to the International Air Transport Association (IATA). Between 2016 and 2017, this value climbed by 7.3 percent, resulting in an additional 280 million flight journeys. Furthermore, as with many previous energy and transportation-related data, airlines in the Asia-Pacific area transported the most passengers.<\/p>\n
Because airline fuel costs are linked to airfares (among other things), the industry has an incentive to cut fuel usage as much as possible, both in their aircraft and in their airline infrastructure. According to a 2012 World Bank research, technological advancements in airframe and engine design, air traffic control, and airport operation have increased energy efficiency in the aviation sector. As a result, today’s airplanes are 80 percent more fuel efficient than their predecessors from the 1960s. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the development and implementation of autonomous flight management systems has substantially benefited fuel savings since the 1970s.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
