- How India can become a leader in sustainable aviation fuel
SAF is a cleaner fuel produced from sustainable feedstocks derived from various types of waste, by-products of agriculture, or power-to-liquid using hydrogen technology With a similar molecular structure and chemical properties to traditional fossil jet fuel, SAF has the added advantage of being able to be dropped into existing aircraft
- 7 factors to consider when undertaking the first SAF offtake
To tackle emissions caused by burning fossil fuels, airlines and SAF purchasing platforms calculate resulting emissions from a flight and introduce the corresponding volume of SAF to counter these emissions There may be variations in calculating CO2 and SAF volumes depending on factors, such as SAF blend and aircraft model
- Financing Sustainable Aviation Fuels: Case Studies and Implications for . . .
However, SAF production is lagging behind: to meet likely demand in 2030 requires an additional 5 8 Mt of capacity, which would need to secure final investment decisions by 2026 By 2030, global demand for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) is expected to reach 17 million tonnes per annum (Mt a), representing 4-5% of total jet fuel consumption
- Scaling Up Sustainable Aviation Fuel Supply | World Economic Forum
This report provides key actions stakeholders along the entire aviation value chain should take to move towards 10% sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) by 2030 and subsequent sector decarbonization by 2050 It showcases critical technologies for scaling up SAF, examines the limitations and barriers constraining cost and supply, and discusses the optimal global production hubs to satisfy the
- SAF85 Technical Brief: Aviation Sector | World Economic Forum
While many FMC aviation members have made some progress towards procuring SAF85, the number and complexity of SAF production pathways and feedstocks on the horizon, as well as significant project-level nuances, make it difficult to identify products that meet the FMC’s high threshold
- Clean Skies for Tomorrow: Sustainable Aviation Fuels as a Pathway to . . .
It finds that sufficient sustainable feedstocks are available to meet the projected jet fuel demand for global aviation in 2030 However, to reach the necessary production of SAF required for 2030 decarbonization targets, SAF production costs must be reduced, and this is reliant on innovative regulatory mechanisms and clear demand signals
- 6 aviation execs on an EU sustainable aviation fuel mandate
While SAF can reduce GHG emissions by 80% or more, the significant air quality and non-CO2 climate benefits of SAF bolster the case for an EU SAF mandate Emerging scientific research indicates that the largest contributor to aviation’s climate impact – up to two times the climate impact of aviation CO2 – is from “contrail cirrus
- Industrial policy is shaping policy for SAF and other fuels
Industrial policies focus on productivity growth and innovation The EU and UK SAF mandates, for instance, encourage the innovation of advanced fuels, particularly with the introduction of a synthetic jet fuel mandate (e-SAF) from 2030 onwards Fostering technological advancement can help build future industrial leadership and competitiveness
