Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF)

Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is a renewable alternative to conventional jet fuel, produced from sources such as used cooking oil, agricultural residues, municipal waste, and synthetic processes using captured carbon. SAF can be blended with traditional jet fuel and used in existing aircraft engines without modification. Compared to fossil-based fuels, it offers significant lifecycle greenhouse gas emission reductions. As aviation is one of the hardest sectors to decarbonize, SAF is seen as a critical solution for reducing its climate impact. Expanding SAF production and adoption is considered central to global net-zero aviation goals.
