Sustainable Aviation Fuel
Sustainable Aviation Fuel
Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is a type of biofuel designed to reduce the carbon footprint of the aviation industry. It is produced from renewable and sustainable resources, offering a more environmentally friendly alternative to conventional fossil-based jet fuel.
ENVIROMENTAL BENEFITS
Lower Carbon Emissions
SAF can reduce lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80% compared to traditional jet fuel, depending on the feedstock and production process.
Reduction in Pollutants
SAF burns cleaner, reducing particulate matter and sulfur emissions, contributing to improved air quality.
Compatibility with Existing Aircraft
SAF can be blended with conventional jet fuel and used in existing aircraft engines without modification, facilitating its adoption in the industry.
ADOPTION
AND
IMPACT
Regulations and Incentives
Governments and international bodies are promoting SAF through regulations, mandates, and incentives, aiming to reduce the aviation sector’s carbon footprint.
Airline Commitment
Many airlines have pledged to increase their use of SAF as part of broader sustainability goals.
Future Potential
As technology improves and production scales up, SAF could play a critical role in de carbonizing aviation.
