| Abstract | The United States (US) Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Office of Environment and Energy (AEE) has developed the System for assessing Aviation’s Global Emissions (SAGE) with support from the Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (Volpe), the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and the Logistics Management Institute (LMI). Currently at Version 1.5, SAGE is a high fidelity computer model used to predict aircraft fuel burn and emissions for all commercial (civil) flights globally in a given year. This means that the model is capable of analyzing scenarios at from a single flight to airport, country, regional, and global levels. SAGE is able to dynamically model aircraft performance, fuel burn and emissions, capacity and delay at airports, and forecasts of future scenarios. FAA’s purpose in developing SAGE is to provide the international aviation community with a tool to evaluate the effects of various policy, technology, and operational scenarios on aircraft fuel use and emissions. FAA is committed to the continued development and support of SAGE. Although the results from the model have been made available to the international aviation community, SAGE is currently an FAA government research tool and has not been released to the general public. SAGE Version 1.5 has been used to generate global inventories of fuel burn and emissions for years 2000- 2004. These historical inventories were developed by modeling high-resolution gate-to-gate movements of all global commercial flights in each year. This report presents the inventory data in various forms and also provides derivative metrics and comparative assessments. |
