Abstract:

The United States (US) Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Office of Environment and Energy (AEE) has

developed the System for assessing Aviation’s Global Emissions (SAGE) with support from the Volpe National

Transportation Systems Center (Volpe), the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and the Logistics

Management Institute (LMI). Currently at Version 1.5, SAGE is a high fidelity computer model used to

predict aircraft fuel burn and emissions for all commercial (civil) flights globally in a given year.

This means that the model is capable of analyzing scenarios at from a single flight to airport, country,

regional, and global levels. SAGE is able to dynamically model aircraft performance, fuel burn and

emissions, capacity and delay at airports, and forecasts of future scenarios. FAA’s purpose in developing

SAGE is to provide the international aviation community with a tool to evaluate the effects of various

policy, technology, and operational scenarios on aircraft fuel use and emissions. FAA is committed to the

continued development and support of SAGE. Although the results from the model have been made available

to the international aviation community, SAGE is currently an FAA government research tool and has not

been released to the general public.

As part of SAGE Version 1.5 development, this document was developed to provide a detailed description of

the model’s validation assessment. The assessment was undertaken to quantify the uncertainties of the

model’s methods, data, and assumptions at both the modular and system levels. It is expected that this

assessment will be used as the basis for future SAGE development and validation work.
