The General Court of the European Union annulled Section 3.21 of the Climate Delegated Act on 29 June 2026, removing the exclusion of business aviation aircraft from the EU Taxonomy for Sustainable Finance. This ruling validates aircraft intended for private or commercial business use as environmentally sustainable under EU law, enabling access to green bonds and low-carbon financing instruments. GAMA and EBAA welcomed the judgment, which found the European Commission failed to prove alternative transport modes are credible substitutes in all cases. GAMA now urges policymakers to formally incorporate this recognition into the European Aviation Strategy, ensuring investment in aviation innovation aligns with decarbonization goals while reflecting the aerospace sector’s full contribution to competitiveness.
