The European Business Aviation Association (EBAA) has serious concerns regarding the European Commission’s (EC) proposal to revise the EU Emissions Trading System (EU-ETS). The group said it was not consulted by the Commission’s climate action directorate on the proposed changes, which could impose broader obligations on business aviation while excluding the sector from key support for sustainable aviation fuel uptake.
