Revolutionary Innovation for Sustainable Engines (RISE)
Change the engine, change the future
Building on four decades of investment that made our engines quieter and more efficient, the RISE Program is accelerating the development of uncompromising new propulsion technologies that will pave the way for the next generation of aircraft and a more sustainable future.
RISE
Our technology demonstrator for a more sustainable future
Technologies matured as part of the RISE Program will serve as the foundation for the next generation CFM engine that could be available by the mid-2030s. The program goals include improving fuel efficiency by more than 20 percent compared to today’s most efficient engines, as well as ensuring compatibility with alternative energy sources like Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) to provide further emissions reductions.
