"TRB's Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Report 11: Guidebook on Preparing Airport Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventories explores a framework for identifying and quantifying specific components of airport contributions to greenhouse gas emissions (GHG). The report is designed to help airport operators and others to prepare an airport-specific inventory of greenhouse gas emissions.

"TRB's Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Report 84: Guidebook for Preparing Airport Emissions Inventories for State Implementation Plans is designed to assist in the preparation of airport emissions inventory component of a State Implementation Plan. The Guidebook offers a basic, intermediate, and advanced approach for preparation of an airport emissions inventory. Each approach is progressively more complex, requiring increasingly detailed input data that generates greater airport specificity and accuracy. The choice of a particular approach is up to the user as a function of the level of response appropriate to a specific airport, the demands of the facility and the surrounding community, and data availability. A CD-ROM, which is included with the print version of the report, contains an Airport Emissions Estimator Tool that applies to the basic approach. In addition, the CD-ROM includes the appendixes that accompany ACRP Report 84 as well as other project-specific material."--Publisher's description.

Airports worldwide are setting aggressive zero- or low-emissions targets. To meet these targets, airports are deploying new strategies, adopting innovative financing mechanisms, and harnessing the collective influence of voluntary emissions and reporting programs. In tandem, new and affordable zero- or low-emissions technologies are rapidly becoming available at airports. The TRB Airport Cooperative Research Program's ACRP Research Report 220: Guidebook for Developing a Zero- or Low-Emissions Roadmap at Airports covers all steps of roadmap development, from start to finish, using conceptual diagrams, examples, best practices, and links to external tools and resources. While the main focus of this Guidebook is airport-controlled greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, it provides discussion about airport-influenced emissions from airlines, concessionaires, and passengers. Whereas other guidebooks and reference material provide airports with information on emissions mitigation and management (for example, the Federal Aviation Administration's Airport Carbon Emissions Reduction, ACRP Report 11: Guidebook on Preparing Airport Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventories, and the Airport Council International's Guidance Manual: Airport Greenhouse Gas Emissions Management), this Guidebook articulates steps for creating an airport-specific emissions roadmap.

These appendices provide background information on inventory protocols and calculation methods. The intention is to support the Guidebook by providing further details and explanations for the specific procedures and recommendations specified by the Guidebook. As such, the appendices should be seen as a companion to the Guidebook that the inventory developer can use to better understand the inventory development process. The appendices were separated from the Guidebook to allow the Guidebook to be a streamlined and focused document. Although the Guidebook may provide some background information, its purpose is mainly to provide instructions on how to develop an inventory rather than explaining all of the reasoning behind each method. As users gain experience from the two documents and become adept at developing airport GHG inventories, they should be able to refer to just the Guidebook for their needs.

"Abstract: This document presents highlights from five research reports on airport greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inventories. It presents the most salient findings for policy makers and U.S. airports seeking to better understand and inventory airport GHG emissions. The emphasis in this summary is to provide recommendations on reasonably accurate and low cost methods to inventory airport GHGs. The first step in reducing GHG emissions is the development of a baseline inventory. Inventorying GHG emissions at airports can help airport officials better understand emissions trends; identify the sources and activities where there are opportunities for GHG reduction; set GHG reductions targets; and track progress toward meeting targets. Information on the usability, affordability, and reliability of various inventory methods is provided to help airports make the most of limited resources."--Technical report documentation page.

"This report presents an evaluation of the current methods used to generate air emissions information from all freight transportation activities and discusses their suitability for purposes such as health and climate risk assessments, prioritization of emission reduction activities (e.g., through State Implementation Plans), and public education. The report is especially valuable for (1) its identification of the state of the practice, gaps, and strengths and limitations of current emissions data estimates and methods and (2) its conceptual model that offers a comprehensive representation of freight activity by all transportation modes and relationships between modes. This report will better inform the near-term needs of public and private stakeholders regarding the quality of emissions data and guide future research that links freight activities with air emissions."--pub. desc.
