In the pursuit of greener aviation, significant advancements have been made in reducing carbon emissions. Modern aircraft like the Airbus A350 and Boeing 787 are examples of how the industry has progressed, boasting fuel-efficient designs that minimize carbon footprints. However, a recent study from Imperial College London reveals that these environmental gains may be partially […]

In a bold move towards sustainable aviation, Alaska Airlines has invested in JetZero, a company pioneering a new blended-wing body (BWB) aircraft that promises to deliver up to 50% less fuel burn and significantly lower emissions. The investment, made through Alaska Star Ventures (ASV), underscores the airline’s commitment to advancing innovative technologies that align with

In its latest move towards sustainability, China has introduced a comprehensive policy aimed at accelerating the adoption of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) within its aviation sector. This strategic initiative underscores the country’s commitment to reducing carbon emissions and achieving carbon neutrality by 2060. As the aviation industry faces growing pressure to decarbonize, China’s proactive approach

The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has recently made a significant stride toward sustainable aviation by allocating $291 million in grants under its Fueling Aviation’s Sustainable Transition (FAST) discretionary grant program. This investment, spread across 36 projects, is aimed at bolstering the development of sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) and advancing low-emission technologies. The initiative aligns

The aviation industry is at a pivotal moment, with its contribution of 2.5% to global CO2 emissions drawing increased scrutiny. As greenhouse gases soar to record levels, the push for net-zero emissions by 2050 has become a defining goal for airlines and the wider aviation sector. Meeting this challenge requires a shift from traditional practices

Australia is set to strengthen its position as a leader in Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) with the latest partnership between LanzaTech Global Inc., LanzaJet Inc., and Wagner Sustainable Fuels. This collaboration aims to equip the upcoming Brisbane SAF Refinery with CirculAir, a cutting-edge technology that converts waste carbon and renewable power into sustainable aviation fuel.

The Northern Territory (NT) is positioning itself as a global leader in sustainable aviation with a new project focused on hydrogen-powered unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Driven by the growing demand for reliable hydrogen storage in UAVs, this initiative marks a significant step towards greener technology in long-range drone operations.  In collaboration with the NT Government,

The Singapore Airlines Group (SIA) has taken another significant step towards its sustainability goals by signing an agreement with Neste to purchase 1,000 tonnes of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). This landmark deal will make SIA and Scoot the first airlines to receive SAF produced at Neste’s Tuas refinery, marking a significant milestone for both the

The race toward net zero is gaining momentum as the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) embarks on the development of its first-ever international standard dedicated to net zero. With the expected launch at COP30 in November 2025, this much-anticipated standard aims to provide clear and robust guidelines for organizations worldwide, offering independently verified and comprehensive

In a groundbreaking move for both aviation and environmental research, the FAAM Airborne Laboratory has announced that all its flights from Cranfield Airport will now be powered by sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). As the world’s leading research aircraft, the FAAM’s shift to SAF sets a strong precedent for integrating sustainability into aviation, even in specialized
