Green aviation ecosystem? The agreement will focus on developing next-generation aircraft and infrastructure designed to reduce environmental impact and meet the growing demand for environmentally-friendly air mobility solutions, the statement notes. The collaboration will also focus on developing a comprehensive program to support green aviation startups and accelerate their development in cooperation with Abu Dhabi University as well as facilitating the establishment of the International Green Aviation Organization’s (IAGA) headquarters in Abu Dhabi.
Strengthening previous partnerships: The UAE’s General Civil Aviation Authority and Hong Kong-based Volar Air Mobility signed an MoU back in September to develop the UAE’s first Green Aviation Technology Hub. The hub, the agreement for which was signed on the sidelines of the Advanced Air Mobility Symposium 2024, will support R&D for sustainable aviation technologies and bring together global stakeholders to collaborate.
