About Clean Sky
Clean Sky ensures the involvement of the main industrial players but also universities, research institutes and SMEs. Clean Sky is an open club, active in 24 European countries, with more than 600 participants, 40% of whom are SMEs. Clean Sky technologies will achieve, come 2020, a 20% to 30% reduction in average CO2 emissions in comparison with year 2000 technologies. Clean Sky 2 builds upon the achievements of the current programme to decrease CO2 emissions further still by 2050. Clean Sky is well on track and has already achieved tangible results: its achievements are monitored both by dedicated, independent scientific tools and by reviews. The Technology Evaluator assesses the situation with regards to environmental targets.
