The study is called TRANSCEND and has been carried out within the Technology Evaluator of the European Clean Sky 2 research programme and NLR’s Climate-Neutral Aviation programme, in collaboration with TU Delft. TRANSCEND, which started in 2019 and recently concluded, investigated novel propulsion technologies and alternative fuels for aviation through to 2050, as potential key contributors to climate-neutral aviation.
