    University essay from KTH/Industriell ekonomi och organisation (Inst.)

    Author : Frida Sjöström; [2024]
    Keywords : Carbon Neutral; Business aviation; Sustainable Aviation; Sustainable Strategy; Sustainable Aviation Fuel; Hydrogen; Electric; Switzerland; Technology-Push; DemandPull.; Koldioxidneutralt; affärsflyg; hållbart flyg; hållbar strategi; hållbart flygbränsle; vätgas; elflyg; Schweiz; Technology-Push; Demand-Pull;

    Abstract : This thesis emerged from a question that had been repeating itself in my head for a long period of time: If myself and the rest of the world face the fact that we are likely to keep flying for years to come for reasons somehow considered valid, how can we at the same time still contribute efficiently to achieving a more sustainable future of aviation? Based on this dilemma and focusing on the factor of impact, an actor with the power of creating a larger impact than a single individual was firstly identified. This actor also provides the perspective used in this thesis. READ MORE
