Biography

Bram Peerlings is a specialist in the field of aviation sustainability at the Royal Netherlands Aerospace Centre (NLR) and leader of NLRs research programme into climate neutral aviation. This programme is focused on better understanding the current and anticipated future climate impact of aviation, contributing to the development of alternatively-fuelled aircraft and addressing related operational challenges in a holistic way.

Employed on research and consultancy assignments, his interests go out to both global as well as local environmental impact, covering CO2 emissions and non-CO2 climate effects, but also noise, annoyance and community engagement. Often, these projects see him investigating and modelling future aircraft emissions, reduction opportunities and/or anticipated policies and their effects. He is working for a variety of clients in both the public and private sector, such as KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Royal Schiphol Group and various ministries of the Government of the Netherlands, participates in European research projects and has been a key author of the DESTINATION 2050 series of reports. This includes the early 2025 updated roadmap report, showing a possible pathway to net-zero CO2 emissions from European aviation and including assessments of related expenditures, cumulative emissions and compatibility with carbon budgets.

Bram holds MSc-degrees from Delft University of Technology (the Netherlands) in both Aerospace Engineering and Science Communication. He regularly publishes about his work or recent developments in the field of sustainable aviation, both through international conferences as well as by newspaper contributions and blogs.
