    • The CFM international RISE stands for
      Revolutionary Innovation for Sustainable Engines
    • What is the CFM International RISE?

      An open rotor engine that is currently being developed by CFM International.
    • 50-50 joint venture with which two companies?
      GE Aerospace and French Safran Aircraft Engines.
    • The engine is planned to support both hydrogen and sustainable aviation fuels, and it plans to achieve a 20% reduction in fuel burn and in carbon dioxide emissions.
    • RISE has only a single-stage open rotor
    • The two stages of the RISE have variable pitch control
    • RISE will also use a recuperator, which captures waste heat from the exhaust gas to pre-heat the air that exits the compressor before it enters the combustor.
