Abstract

Klimatske promjene predstavljaju sve veći svjetski problem. S ciljem smanjenja emisija plinova i ostalih štetnih čimbenika, zrakoplovna industrija se okreće alternativnim izvorima energije. Postoje mnogobrojne inicijative, propisi i dokumenti koji služe kao smjernice i okviri za istraživanje i razvoj. Alternativni izvori goriva koji obećavaju su održiva zrakoplovna goriva, vodik i električna energija. Danas postoji znatan broj zračnih luka koje nude održiva zrakoplovna goriva, ali ona su skupa za proizvodnju. Vodik kao alternativno gorivo, bi mogao imati značajnu ulogu jer je dostupan u velikim količinama i ne stvara štetne emisije plinova. Električna energija i baterije također predstavljaju sve veće zanimanje, a osim što ne generiraju emisije, dugoročno nude i veću uštedu. Bez obzira što već postoje primjeri korištenja alternativnih izvora energije, pred zrakoplovnom industrijom su brojni izazovi prije nego komercijali zrakoplovi krenu na duže relacije.

Abstract (english)

Climate change is a growing global problem. With the aim of reducing gas emissions and other factors, the aviation industry is turning to alternative sources of energy. There are various initiatives, regulations and documents that serve as guidelines and frameworks for research and development. Alternative energy sources that are promising are sustainable aviation fuels, hydrogen and electricity. Today, there are a considerable number of airports that offer sustainable aviation fuels, but they are expensive to produce. Hydrogen could have a significant role as an alternative fuel, since it doesn't create any gas emission and is available in large scale. Electricity and batteries also have increasing interest, and in addition to not generating any emissions, they also offer greater savings in the long run. Although there are already examples of the use of alternative energy sources, the aviation industry faces numerous challenges before commercial planes can take off on long-haul flights.
