The workshop took place on 17 June 2021 and focused on the following topics:

  • The potential implementation issues and economic implications of extending the EU ETS system to maritime shipping;
  • The impact of the EU ETS system on aviation: key points for consideration and effects on EU carriers.

The presentations were followed by Q&A session with members whereby, among other subjects, the relevance of the EU ETS system in transport for achieving the climatic goals, and the technical and socio-economic perspectives of extending the EU ETS system to aviation and shipping were discussed.

Dr Sven MaertensDr. Sven Maertens holds a Master degree equivalent (2002) of Muenster University in business administration with special focus on Transportation and Spatial Economics, Marketing and Controlling. Until 2008, he conducted research on transport infrastructure provision and air and coach transport economics at the Institute of Transport Economics (Muenster). In his doctoral thesis, Sven analysed the potential of secondary airports in long haul air transport. From 2008, Sven has been responsible for several research projects, studies and academic papers at the Institute of Air Transport and Airport Research at the German Aerospace Center (DLR).
Key projects managed by him include assessments of demand forecasts for Muenster/Osnabrueck Airport during the court case on a planned runway extension; coordination of the EU FP7 project TEAM_Play, which created a pan-European tool suite for the assessment of environmental aviation policies and their impacts on aviation development; quantitative approaches to assess the market power of European airports, the competitive position of European and North American airlines, and the scope for connections between low cost carriers in Europe; environmental and economic impact assessments, e.g. of the EU emission trading system (ETS) for aviation and of the European and German business aviation sectors; and the assessment of employment effects and wider economic benefits stemming from the business aviation sector. Recent projects dealt with implementation strategies for synthetic fuels in aviation, and with the design and implementation of ICAO’s CORSIA offsetting scheme. In 2017 and 2018, Sven was sent on expert missions to support the Governments of different countries in the fields of national aviation policymaking (Kosovo, on behalf of TAIEX/EU), airport slot and ground handling deregulation (Albania, TAIEX/EU) and CORSIA implementation (Tajikistan, ICAO).
