Rethinking aircraft taxiing to reduce greenhouse gas emissions Taxiing is the phase of an airplane's movement during which the non-optimal performance of the engines makes their use irrelevant. By these time where the use of air transport lays its own responsibility in the process of global warming (2.5% of global CO2 emissions) all of its players are actively turning to new, more sustainable practices. Green taxiing is one of them. Ecotug supports and promotes the development of Extended Aircraft Towing We support aviation actors concerned by the GHG reduction by proposing them a fully relevant solutionWe prepare a necessary Proof of Concept. That includes active stakeholders research and organizationWe develop tailor made solutions to spread the AETP concept wherever it can apply once the feasibility will have been demonstratedWe connect a sustainable opportunity to investors looking for ESG strategy compliant activities |

Tons of jet A1 are unnecessary burned worldwide every day, just for hours of taxiing. This represents a consequent cost for airlines whereas ground aircrafts movements could be assured by a more sustainable mean | All aviation actors are nowadays concerned with GHG reduction. The use of an inovative practice, the AETP, can reduce these emissions significantly | AETP is a simple way to save engine potential keeping it for a more relevant use. |
