Room 1 – Contrail Avoidance

  • 09:00-09:30 Arrival and registrationCoffee/tea, fruit, nuts, water.
  • 09:30-10:10 Conversation: Contrail avoidance from a pilot’s perspectiveIt’s one thing to work out the theories or simulate contrail avoidance in a lab environment, but it’s another thing when the research is turned into operational practice. Get a first-hand report from a pilot with experience implementing contrail avoidance into airline operations, and flying contrail avoidance flights. Followed by Q&A.
    • Tony Schweigert, Pilot & Research Assistant Contrails, TUI Airline
    • Jeppe Juul, Transport Policy Director, Green Transition Denmark
  • 10:10-10:45 Presentation: Big hits! Contrail avoidance in the airspace over Denmark. The “big hits” are the few flights predicted to create the most contrail warming. Learn how these big climate opportunities are targeted in the airspace over Denmark (and much of Northern Europe) as a part of the CONCERTO project.

  • 12:00-12:30 Presentation: Tracking aviation’s worldwide emissions – with a special focus on Denmark.The ICCT has tracked and analyzed the climate impact of aviation worldwide for 2023, including CO2 from fuels and non-CO2 impacts like contrail warming. Come and get a sense of the numbers country-by-country with a special deep dive into the Danish emissions.
