Based at Kirkwall Airport in the Orkney Islands, the Sustainable Aviation Test Environment (SATE) is the UK's first low-carbon aviation test centre embedded at a commercial airport.SATE brings together an international consortium of industry partners, public sector bodies and academia who will work with a range of regional businesses and stakeholders to apply state-of-the-art aviation technology to deliver targeted economic growth.SATE's overarching objectives include:* Demonstrating the next generation of air services* Ensuring airports operations are ready to support sustainable aviation requirements* Improving regional connectivity* Supporting Scottish Government's ambition for a Highlands and Islands Net Zero Aviation region by 2040SATE has already established itself at the forefront of future aviation. Recent successes include Ampaire demonstrating the first hybrid-electric flights in Scotland and Windracers trialling autonomous flights for delivering Royal Mail cargo between Kirkwall and North Ronaldsay. These practical outcomes have raised the profile of SATE, putting the project on the global stage.SATE will now expand to create the UK Centre of Excellence for Sustainable Regional Aviation Systems, enabling pre-commercial demonstrations of novel aviation technologies with proven use cases to commercialise clean innovation in a real-world environment. Use cases will include:* Scheduled airline routes* Offshore energy services* National Health Service activities* Island / remote region deliveries* Environmental survey and inspectionImplementation of these will require advances in technology, regulation, and policy. These are reflected in the cross-cutting activities which include:* Establishing a dedicated test environment airspace* Matchmaking technology to community and business needs* Accelerating technology innovation* Mapping out the future Highlands and Islands aviation systemKirkwall Airport is one of eleven airports operated by HIAL and an ideal test environment location due to the variety of operated routes (including short hops to inter-island airfields operated by Orkney Islands Council). The wider project team includes leading technology developers ZeroAvia, Windracers and FlareBright. EMEC brings expertise in green-hydrogen refuelling infrastructure, and HITRANS will lead on connectivity into the wider transport system. The socio-economic impact of a new regional-aviation system will be supported by UHI, Connected Places Catapult (CPC) and Aracadis. This project will also stimulate inward investment and supply chain growth which is a key responsibility for Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE).Project highlights will include working with the CAA to approve a regional sandbox airspace, establishment of a UAV hub-and-spoke delivery network, a first hydrogen-propelled regional-aircraft flight and an international demonstration flight to Norway.

可持续航空测试环境（SATE）位于奥克尼群岛的柯克沃尔机场，是英国第一个嵌入商业机场的低碳航空测试中心。SATE汇集了国际行业合作伙伴联盟，公共部门机构和学术界将与一系列区域企业和利益相关者合作，先进的航空技术，以实现有针对性的经济增长。SATE的总体目标包括：* 展示下一代航空服务 * 确保机场运营准备就绪，以支持可持续航空需求 * 改善区域连通性 * 支持苏格兰政府到2040年实现高地和岛屿净零航空区的雄心，SATE已经在未来航空的前沿最近的成功包括Ampaire在苏格兰展示了第一架混合动力飞机，Windracers在柯克沃尔和北罗纳德赛之间试验了运送皇家邮件货物的自动飞行。这些实际成果提升了SATE的知名度，将该项目推向了全球舞台。SATE现在将扩大规模，创建英国可持续区域航空系统卓越中心，以实现具有成熟用例的新型航空技术的商业化前演示，从而在现实环境中将清洁创新商业化。用例将包括：* 定期航线 * 离岸能源服务 * 国民健康服务活动 * 岛屿/偏远地区交付 * 环境调查和检查这些的实施将需要技术，法规和政策的进步。这些都反映在横向活动，其中包括：* 建立一个专门的测试环境空域 * 匹配技术，以社区和商业需求 * 加速技术创新 * 制定未来的高地和岛屿航空系统柯克沃尔机场是由HIAL运营的11个机场之一，由于运营路线的多样性（包括奥克尼群岛理事会运营的岛屿间机场的短途飞行），柯克沃尔机场是理想的测试环境位置。更广泛的项目团队包括领先的技术开发商ZeroAvia，Windracers和FlareBright。EMEC带来了绿色氢燃料加注基础设施方面的专业知识，HITRANS将引领更广泛的运输系统的连接。一个新的区域航空系统的社会经济影响将得到UHI，连接的地方弹射器（CPC）和Aracadis的支持。该项目还将刺激外来投资和供应链增长，这是高地和岛屿企业（HIE）的主要责任。项目重点将包括与CAA合作批准区域沙箱空域，建立无人机轴辐式交付网络，首次氢推进区域飞机飞行以及前往挪威的国际演示飞行。
