... 7 This resource guide has been developed for airport practitioners and other stakeholders. It provides information on the potential cost, energy, and environmental benefits (e.g., noise and emissions)
From page 8...
... 8 Deriving Benefits from Alternative Aircraft-Taxi Systems offset the weight gain of an onboard system for takeoff, climb, and cruise. The use of EDMS does not allow for the calculation of additional fuel burn and the resultant emissions due to changes in weight.
From page 9...
... Discussion 9 (of both electric motor and external systems) indicate a noise reduction of between 10 dB and 12 dB close to taxiways.
