A Strategic Shift in the Global Aviation Decarbonisation Journey The Asia-Pacific region is fast emerging as a pivotal force in the global effort to decarbonise aviation. With the recent launch of Green Fuel Forward by the World Economic Forum in collaboration with GenZero, a new chapter begins in the journey […]

A New Flight Path for Carbon In a bold move that reimagines waste as resource, United Airlines has partnered with California-based Twelve to transform carbon dioxide into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). This collaboration is not merely a financial transaction—it is a signal of a new industrial logic where emissions are

In a quietly powerful move, Copenhagen Airport and its partners have initiated a study that could subtly reshape the future of aviation fuel use. The project—FuelTrack—marks the first real-world campaign to create a scientifically validated dataset linking jet fuel properties with actual aircraft emissions. It is a technical study, yes—but

Emissions Recovery as a Strategic Mirror Recent findings from a Brussels-based think tank have revealed that carbon dioxide emissions from UK-departing flights are projected to surpass 2019 levels within the year. This data, while concerning, offers more than just a warning. It presents an under-discussed opportunity for systemic recalibration across

New Momentum in the Quest for Cleaner Skies The private aviation sector has traditionally drawn scrutiny for its disproportionate environmental footprint. Yet in a turn that hints at deeper shifts in priorities, Wheels Up has unveiled a program that brings sustainable aviation fuel into clearer focus for its clients. This

The Clean Thrust Revolution In a world desperate to curb the environmental toll of fossil fuels, a quiet but powerful shift is underway. A group of researchers has unveiled a jet engine design that bypasses combustion entirely, turning only air and electricity into usable thrust. This is not a marginal

Beyond Carbon: Understanding Aviation’s Full Climate Impact When we talk about the environmental footprint of aviation, CO2 emissions often dominate the conversation. Yet, this focus overlooks a significant component of the industry’s climate impact—non-CO2 effects such as nitrogen oxides (NOx) and contrail-induced cirrus clouds. These short-lived climate pollutants are estimated

The path to a climate-resilient aviation future is no longer a theoretical conversation — it is a policy imperative. Aviation stakeholders across Canada and globally are clear: the key to unlocking low-emissions air travel lies in large-scale adoption of sustainable aviation fuels. But to achieve that, an enabling environment must

A Major Milestone in Clean Aviation Thailand has achieved a landmark feat in its energy transition journey with the inauguration of its first large-scale Sustainable Aviation Fuel production unit. The launch of this facility marks not only a national achievement but a strategic signal to the region on the viability

Transforming Sustainability from Burden to Benefit In a sector often driven by speed, exclusivity, and experience, sustainability in private aviation has long been perceived as a secondary consideration—or worse, an inconvenience. That is starting to change, and not just because of increasing regulatory pressures or customer demands. Sentient Signature, a

A Green Horizon for Aviation Emerges The skies above East Asia are witnessing a quiet revolution. In April 2025, Taiwan launched a nationwide trial of sustainable aviation fuel, signaling a strategic commitment to decarbonize air travel. This development marks not just an environmental milestone but also a blueprint for how

An Innovation Hidden in Plain Sight At first glance, the OX1 machine standing at Oxford Airport resembles an ordinary shipping container. Yet a closer inspection reveals an extraordinary glimpse into the future of aviation. It represents years of dedicated research culminating in the successful conversion of carbon dioxide and hydrogen

A New Era for Aviation Sustainability India is embarking on a transformative journey that promises to reshape the future of aviation. With an innovative collaboration between NTPC Green Energy and Honeywell UOP India, the country is pioneering the production of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). By combining green hydrogen with carbon

A New Perspective on Aviation’s Path to Decarbonization When the conversation about sustainable aviation arises, the spotlight often shines on Sustainable Aviation Fuels. Yet, while crucial, fuels currently cover a mere fraction of the industry’s needs. A less obvious but immensely powerful innovation is emerging to complement and accelerate aviation’s
