A New Era for Sustainable Aviation Fuel Procurement The aviation sector is undergoing a critical shift. As pressure mounts to meet net zero targets by 2050, the International Air Transport Association has introduced a transformative digital solution: the Sustainable Aviation Fuel Matchmaker platform. This move represents more than just a […]

The Evolving Role of Airports in a Warming World Airports are no longer just spaces of transit. In the Asia-Pacific and Middle East region, they are increasingly emerging as strategic actors in the global sustainability movement. Once considered passive infrastructures in the aviation value chain, these hubs are now leading

A Historic Leader at a Crossroads For decades, the European Union has served as a beacon of progressive climate policy. The launch of its Emissions Trading System (ETS) in 2005 was nothing short of a global milestone. It created a blueprint for market-based emissions control and inspired similar systems across

A Quiet yet Powerful Step Toward Greener Skies In an era where the aviation sector is under increasing scrutiny for its climate impact, Vietnam has made a crucial yet understated decision. By announcing its commitment to the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA), the country signals a

The global aviation sector has long been under scrutiny for its contribution to greenhouse gas emissions. Yet, every progressive policy shift, especially from nations with growing air transport networks, signals momentum toward a greener future. Recently, Turkey unveiled a transformative policy directive focused on Sustainable Aviation Fuel, marking a defining

A New Era in Aviation Energy The aviation sector is witnessing a transformative shift. As sustainability becomes an indispensable pillar of long-term viability, innovative approaches are needed not just in aircraft design or operations, but in the very fuel that powers flight. In a significant stride, the International Air Transport

A new chapter in European aviation is unfolding. The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and EUROCONTROL have announced an elevated strategic partnership aimed at sustainability and civil-military coordination. While headlines may focus on collaboration and policy, the deeper narrative is one of systemic change—where technological progress, regulatory foresight, and

Understanding the Full Spectrum of Aviation’s Climate Impact For years, efforts to reduce aviation’s climate footprint have centered on carbon dioxide emissions. While this focus is understandable—CO₂ remains a persistent and measurable greenhouse gas—it tells only part of the story. Recent scientific studies now highlight a broader climate impact from

The Bigger Picture in the SAF Push The aviation industry is entering a crucial phase in its journey towards climate neutrality. The recent announcement from the International Air Transport Association about the anticipated doubling of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production in 2025 is more than a statistical update—it is a

How Strategic Use of Carbon Credits is Shaping Europe’s Climate Vision As Europe prepares to unveil its formal climate blueprint for 2040, a subtle yet powerful shift is underway. The forthcoming strategy includes a calculated integration of high-quality international carbon credits—an approach that is expected to reshape the cost dynamics

The Global SAF Landscape: A Turning Point in Aviation Sustainable aviation fuel, or SAF, has rapidly ascended to the forefront of climate discourse within the aviation industry. Its promise lies in its capacity to drastically cut lifecycle emissions from aircraft operations, without demanding radical changes to existing infrastructure or aircraft

A Look Back: Delivering Impact through the UK Emissions Trading Scheme Since its inception in 2021, the United Kingdom’s domestic Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) has achieved measurable success. The programme, covering aviation, power and heavy industry, has contributed to a reduction of 11 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions within
