Rolls-Royce (LSE: RR., ADR: RYCEY) today announces a commitment by Vietjet Air for 20 Trent 7000 powered A330neo, which will complement the airline’s existing widebody fleet of seven Trent 700 powered A330ceo aircraft.
With a laser focus on sustainability, Vietjet Air has committed to the A330neo/Trent 7000 combination as it delivers a 14% better fuel burn per seat, whilst significantly lowering emissions. The reduction in emissions will allow the airline to avoid more than one hundred thousand tons of CO2 over the lifetime of each aircraft.
The Trent 7000 draws on the technology and experience of the most advanced family of engines in the world. As the latest member of the Trent family, the Trent 7000 is based on Trent XWB technology and has delivered exceptional reliability since its entry into service.
Ewen McDonald, Chief Customer Officer, Rolls-Royce – Civil Aerospace, said:
Today’s commitment demonstrates Vietjet Air’s confidence in the power of the Trent 7000 to deliver significant sustainability gains alongside a reliable and consistent customer experience. We are proud to continue supporting Vietjet Air as they expand their operation responsibly and sustainably over the coming years.”
Vietjet Air, Chief Executive Officer, Dinh Viet Phuong, said:
The combination of modern Trent 7000 engines on the newest generation of Airbus A330neo will help Vietjet Air reach new technological heights, improve the quality of our flights, and increase the reliability and efficiency of our operations. Specifically, the addition of newest generation, high-efficiency Rolls-Royce engines will contribute significantly to Vietjet Air’s ESG plan to achieve net zero emissions by 2050.”
