The partnership will cover two main areas:
- The supply by TotalEnergies of sustainable aviation fuels for more than half of Airbus’ needs in Europe.
- A research and innovation programme aimed at developing 100% sustainable fuels tailored to the design of current and future aircraft. The impact of the composition of sustainable aviation fuels on the reduction of CO2 emissions and non-CO2 effects, such as contrails, will also be studied.
