Sustainability
Ram Air Turbines (RATs) could be placed on an aircraft in order to generate electricity
Sustainable
Environmentally Friendly
May be impractical due to the large power demand of modern aircraft
RATs may worsen the aerodynamics of an aicraft
Aircraft becomes less efficient
Requires and uses more fuel
Less sustainable
Less environmentally friendly
Hydrogen combustion engines
No emissions (other than water)
Hydrogen can be difficult to store in large quantities however
No existing infrastructure to support such engines
Hydrogen fuel cell
Bigger focus is being place on sustainibility and environmentally friendly business practices
Factors such as sustainibility are becoming more and more important to businesses
Product become more appealing
Plenty of potential customers for a product
Good market opportunity
More efficient engines being created for aircraft
Higher-bypass turbofans
Gas turbine engines produce an abundance of harmful emissions
Exhaust gases could be treated, similar to how they are on a car
Catalytic converter
Designs being made for electrically powered aircraft
