Bauhaus Luftfahrt e.V. was founded in November 2005. Its mission: working together across disciplines to develop new approaches for tomorrow's air transport. The research center is a public-private partnership involving the Free State of Bavaria, Airbus, the German Aerospace Center, IABG, Liebherr-Aerospace, and MTU Aero Engines. The international team of around 50 people is working on a wide range of projects to find ways to make aviation climate neutral.

Radical technical and operational efficiency, 100 per cent renewable energy sources (such as SAF and hydrogen) and climate-impacting measures on operational level — these are the three main approaches being considered for climate-friendly aviation. However, only concerted action by all stakeholders in global aviation and beyond can achieve this goal.

Growth projections show that the aviation industry will not be able to decarbonise by 2050 if it follows the trend of incremental improvements. But what other, more radical paths can be taken to achieve climate-neutral aviation? Bauhaus Luftfahrt outlines scenarios that consider the market launch of technologies such as hydrogen-powered aircraft, radically more efficient aircraft and production volumes of synthetic sustainable aviation fuels.

„Targeting climate-neutral aviation - how radical is the path?" This question was posed by renowned aviation experts from science and industry at the 5th Bauhaus Luftfahrt Symposium on 12 and 13 March 2024 in Berlin, including Florian Allroggen (MIT), Marianne Berg (Boeing), Nicole Dreyer-Langlet (Airbus), Xavier Lagardère (Lufthansa Innovation Hub) and Lars Wagner (MTU). Scientists from Bauhaus Luftfahrt as well as experts from a wide range of fields provided insights into new technological and operational approaches and discussed their potential for the long-term development of aviation.
