As the global aviation industry continues to expand, its environmental impact remains a critical concern. Currently, the sector accounts for around 2% of global energy-related CO2 emissions and 4% of the EU’s total emissions. Addressing this, Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is increasingly being recognized as a key component in reducing the sector’s carbon footprint and […]

In recent years, Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) has emerged as a key player in the aviation industry’s efforts to reduce its carbon footprint. As noted in the International Air Transport Association’s (IATA) Net Zero Roadmap, aviation is one of the hardest sectors to decarbonize. However, with its contribution to 14 of the United Nations’ 17

The aviation industry is at a pivotal moment in its journey toward sustainability, with the Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) market poised for impressive growth. Currently valued at $1.1 billion in 2024, the market is projected to reach $3.0 billion by 2034, with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 11.6%. This surge reflects a growing

Southeast Asia is emerging as a critical player in the global shift toward Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), with research showing that the region’s bio-based feedstocks could supply approximately 12% of the global SAF demand by 2050. This milestone is crucial for helping the commercial aviation sector achieve its net-zero emissions goal within the same timeframe,

Iberia Maintenance has made a significant leap in its sustainability efforts by integrating Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) into its engine test benches at the La Muñoza facilities near Madrid’s Adolfo Suarez Madrid-Barajas Airport. As the first aeronautical maintenance provider in Spain to adopt SAF on a continuous basis, Iberia Maintenance is setting an example for

Korean Air has reached a significant milestone in its commitment to reducing carbon emissions by becoming the first Korean flag carrier to operate commercial flights powered by domestically produced Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). The first flight using SAF, KE719 from Seoul Incheon to Tokyo Haneda, marks a new chapter in the airline’s sustainability efforts. This

In a groundbreaking move towards decarbonizing aviation, OXCCU, an Oxford University spinout, has unveiled its revolutionary demonstration plant at London Oxford Airport. The plant, known as OX1, utilizes a novel one-step process to convert CO2 into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), potentially transforming the future of aviation. This innovative approach is a significant stride towards the

South Korea is taking a significant leap in its pursuit of carbon neutrality in aviation. The recent announcement that all international flights departing from Korea will be required to use Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) by 2027 signals the nation’s commitment to reducing carbon emissions and aligning with global sustainability goals. This move, spearheaded by the

The aviation industry is at a critical crossroads, where sustainability goals intersect with resource limitations and regulatory hurdles. Recent developments highlight the dual challenge of increasing Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) production while navigating the high costs and regulatory inconsistencies that hinder progress. Lufthansa’s recent critique of the EU’s climate package and the optimistic outlook from

South Korea’s bold move to introduce Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) by 2027 for international flights marks a crucial step in its commitment to reduce carbon emissions and achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. The initiative, driven by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport (MOLIT), aligns with international efforts to promote eco-friendly travel and sustainability in
