Decoding Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) — The Key to Carbon-Neutral Flying
The global aviation industry is banking on a significant increase in sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production in the next 30 years to reach its “net zero” carbon emissions target by 2050. However, many airlines are expressing dissatisfaction with the limited supply of SAF on the market and also its exorbitant cost, which is approximately three to five times higher than traditional jet fuel. Additionally, concerns arise about sustaining supplies as demand continues to grow.
What exactly is SAF? Why is it needed?
Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is a liquid fuel blendable with conventional jet fuel without requiring modifications to existing planes or engines.
