CO 2 emissions from private jets in Europe increased by nearly a third (31%) between 2005 and 2019, rising faster than commercial aviation emissions, according to a new report from environmental campaign group Transport & Environment (T&E). The report, Private jets: can the super-rich supercharge zero emission aviation?

The dashed blue line is 2005 emissions; the scale on the right shows the percent of 2005 level. Direct transportation (fuel) taxes generate the greatest reductions in CO 2 emission from transportation, achieving CO 2 emissions at 86% of 2005 levels by about 2025. Source: Morrow et al.

trillion in revenue over 10 years and reduce GHG emissions by approximately 20% from 2005 levels by 2025. Applied upstream, the fee would apply to 2,869 of the largest stationary sources, covering about 85% of US greenhouse gas emissions, according to the Congressional Research Service.

The report shows that projected global ZEV adoption from 2015 to 2039 (based on the BNEF 2017 forecast) may follow an s-curve, similar to that of smartphone adoption in the US from 2005 to 2015. The growth of ZEVs represents a potential drain on motor vehicle fuel taxes, which could affect state transportation revenue.

The EU has also made a commitment to reduce emissions in sectors outside the EU ETS, including transportation, by 10% on year-2005 levels by 2020. This case assumes sufficient subsidy for widespread adoption of the lowest-emission vehicle, fuel, and capacity technology combination in each category.
