TRB Webinar: You Can Get There From Here - Developing an Emissions Roadmap for Airports

May 21, 2020

2:00 PM - 3:30 PM (EDT)

Past

Topics

Airports need ways to reduce their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. TRB is hosting a webinar on Thursday, May 21 from 2:00 to 3:30 PM Eastern that will present a roadmap that may help an airport establish key stakeholders and choose emissions reduction technologies. This roadmap may also help airports set goals, baselines, and targets, as well as identify funding opportunities. Presenters will walk through key insights for any airport interested in developing their own zero- or low emissions roadmap. They will share case studies and survey results from airports that are implementing GHG emissions reduction practices, as well as show how to get buy-in from senior management, make compelling business cases, and develop achievable emissions projections.

The webinar features research from ACRP Research Report 220: Guidebook for Developing a Zero- or Low Emissions Roadmap at Airports and ACRP Synthesis 100: Airport Greenhouse Gas Reduction Efforts.

The slides and presentation recording are available.

Webinar agenda and presenters:

  1. Insights for developing a zero-emission roadmap: Geoff Morrison & Damon Fordham, Cadmus
  2. Survey results of airports currently planning for and implementing GHG reduction efforts: Stephen Barrett, Barrett Energy Resources Group, LLC
  3. Question and answer session: Moderated by Brendan Reed, San Diego County Regional Airport Authority

The first 60 minutes of the webinar will be for presentations and the final 30 minutes will be reserved for audience questions.
