CleanSky

Clean Sky Joint Undertaking is the largest aeronautical research programme ever launched in Europe for the development of breakthrough technologies integrated to significantly increase the environmental performances of aeroplanes and air transport, resulting in quieter and more fuel efficient aircraft, hence bringing a key contribution in achieving the Single European Sky environmental objectives.

The objectives of this programme are, by 2020, to reduce:

  • CO2 emissions by 50%
  • NOx emissions by 80%
  • Noise perception by 50%

Clean Sky mission is to progress breakthrough technologies and refined aerodynamic techniques to the testing and implementation stages for project realisation and handover into production.

The Clean Sky JTI (Joint Technology Initiative) was born in 2008 and represents a unique Public-Private Partnership between the European Commission and the industry. It is managed by the Clean Sky Joint Undertaking (CSJU) until 31 December 2017.

The CSJU will deliver demonstrators in all segments of civil air transport, grouped into six technological areas called 'Integrated Technology Demonstrators' (ITD).
