What possible solutions are there to reduce emissions or de-carbonize road transport? Long-haul surface transportation is an integral part of the global supply chain and accounts for 19% of road transport. Sustainable trucking is important, we have seen a growing number of country initiatives and strategies implemented to tackle the challenge.  

Our latest analysis proposes that green hydrogen has the potential to de-carbonize global greenhouse gas emissions. The green evolution of the heavy-duty transports relies mainly on electric road systems and fuel cell electric vehicles.

Hydrogen For The Long Haul

The aerospace industry has faced the most acute shock in its history, as COVID-19 spread across the world, the industry lost over $118 billion in 2020 and saw dozens of airlines seek bankruptcy protection or stop flying entirely.

There is more work to do in order to get through to full recovery, as our current forecasts show, the recovery is indeed happening, and commercial aircraft activity is poised to return. Yet, it is now time to design a resilient next chapter for aerospace in a post-pandemic world.

Aerospace's Next Chapter: Part 1

Join Ken Aso, Jerome Bouchard, Dennis Santare and David Stewart as they continue the conversation in Part 2 of Aerospace's Next Chapter. They will examine the key aspects of a pre- and post-COVID market and which design elements will position aerospace companies to win in 2021 and beyond.

Aerospace's Next Chapter: Part 2

In this episode of the Oliver Wyman Velocity Podcast, join Kristina Gerteiser, partner specializing in transportation, and Philipp Deibert, partner and telecommunication expert as they bring together their expertise and discuss how mobile network and rail operators can collaborate and support the launch of the 5G network.

The 5G Rail Transformation

Oliver Wyman in collaboration with the WTTC recently launched a paper which offered global guidelines around the adoption of innovative digital technologies to enable safe and seamless travel. The paper lays out several best practice recommendations for biometric-enabled digital identities and their use across the end-to-end traveler journey.

Denver International Airport has been one of the early adopters with their pilot program and are leading the pack with biometric capabilities. In this episode of the Velocity Podcast, Chris McLaughlin, Chief Operating Officer at Denver International Airport joins Oliver Wyman’s transportation experts Scott Boland-Krouse and Lawrence Burka for a unique insight into the success and learnings from the biometric program.

Touchless Travel

Before COVID-19, the global fleet and the industry at large had been on an unfettered positive trajectory for 10 years. That was particularly true in the second half of the last decade when low jet fuel prices also enhanced profitability. As this decade begins, however, the industry faces more uncertainty than it has for more than 20 years, starting with the disruption wrought by the pandemic. 

In this episode of the Oliver Wyman Velocity Podcast, join Tom Cooper, CAVOK Vice President and Brian Prentice, Partner for a conversation around the implications for the MRO market as we start to see signs of recovery in 2021 and over the next ten years. 

They will also discuss MRO demand, critical market trends and their corresponding implications for airlines as the aviation industry emerges from the COVID-19 crisis and fallout.

Global Fleet Recovery

Working from home has now become the norm for many, with stay at home orders and nationwide quarantine measures.   New technologies are helping people adapt to a new COVID-19 world, in some ways replacing mobility. How exactly does this impact business travel? COVID-19 has accelerated the adoption of technology, but will these digital substitutes replace business travel in a post-pandemic world?

In this episode of the Oliver Wyman Velocity Podcast, join Olivier Fainsilber, Partner specializing in transportation and Moe Kelley, Partner and telecommunication expert with the Oliver Wyman Forum as they bring together their expertise and unpick the findings from two recent surveys measuring traveler sentiment and adoption of new technologies.

A Digital Substitute for Travel

This coronavirus is here for the long haul; however, the pandemic is not playing out the same way from place to place. Difference regions and countries are at different points in their recovery, but where are we on the path to aviation industrial revival?

Join Jérôme Bouchard and Ken Aso for the third installment of Aerospace Recovery Post COVID-19, where they revisit decisions that suppliers and OEMs will have to make around production and models in order to recover from the inevitable contraction the airline industry faces.
