Center of Excellence
& Service for Aviation Refuellers

The mission of Group CéSAR is to develop, test, and deploy a set of innovative solutions to make aviation and airports significantly greener and more sustainable.

POLICY TARGETS

Take Away the Complexity & Enable Operating Companies to Focus on Their Core Business

  • To ensure the Aviation Refueling industry is on track to achieving net zero emissions by Our industry must significantly increase the uptake of BEVs within the current decade.
  • Build a single market for technical services supported by a single rulebook and convergence of supervisory practices.
  • Help vehicle manufacturers focus their efforts to ensure new models are supplied to the market and continue to comply.
  • Study with the vehicle manufacturer to identify and minimize risks related to the electric high voltage technology and the requirements for the lithium batteries.
  • Build use cases that will help drive the market, build momentum, and increase policymaker confidence.
  • Identify the need to deliver a genuinely green and regenerative economy.
  • Support Members in the transformation of their economies into green growth.
  • Engage with a wide range of industry and policy stakeholders on all transformation topics to facilitate cooperation and promote partnerships between them.
POLICY OBJECTIVES

Close Remaining Gaps & Address Emerging Risks

  • Propose initiatives to close remaining gaps and address emerging risks with an overall objective, to build well-regulated and supervised financial markets.
  • Setting standards that are stringent enough and yet feasible to understand what technologies are possible and cost-effective not only today but years in the future.
  • Ultimately benefiting consumers and the environment as the competition between hydrogen and electric vehicles continue evolving.
  • Covering why it’s important - what has changed recently - what we need to overcome - what we plan to fund - where, how much it will cost, and how we plan to track progress.
  • Helping the Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to move more quickly to bring options to market.

VEHICLE
SUSTAINABILITY

Electric vehicles have substantially lower fuel and maintenance costs than diesel vehicles, and following electricity prices regulations and reduced oil dependency in certain countries, electric vehicles have a much lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).

VEHICLE ENGINEERING
- OPERATIONS & MRO

The lack of standardized technician qualifications exacerbates hurdles for the widespread adoption of BEVs, including range anxiety and safety risks; this leads to confusion about preferred technology: battery electric, fuel cell, or powertrains.

VEHICLE LIFE CYCLE MANAGEMENT
& DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY

Companies that fully understand the capabilities of their assets can better understand asset management risks to address vulnerabilities & improve resilience, improve current and future decision-making based on historical information.

TRANSITION
RISK MANAGEMENT

The technology we need to make the transition to zero is available today. We can supply you with the right toolset to ensure the success of your journey toward zero emissions. For decades, we have excelled in modifying hundreds of vehicles, adhering to technical standards and requirements.
