Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) is a key component of decarbonizing the aviation industry. However, many companies struggle with the complexities of acquiring and utilizing it. World Fuel Services has introduced a solution that aims to simplify the process—myWorld Decarbonize Tool. This innovative platform streamlines SAF purchases via book and claim, providing a more accessible route for businesses looking to reduce emissions.
This development goes beyond just another sustainability tool. It represents a shift in how SAF adoption is structured, removing traditional logistical barriers and making emissions reduction a seamless process.
What is the myWorld Decarbonize Tool?
World Fuel Services’ new tool is designed to make lower-carbon aviation solutions more accessible and transparent. By leveraging the book and claim model, the platform allows companies to purchase SAF regardless of their physical location. This means organizations can support SAF production and claim its environmental benefits without needing direct fuel deliveries.
According to Brad Hurwitz, Senior Vice President of Supply & Trading at World Fuel Services, the tool is about more than just fuel—it is about enabling customers to make impactful, measurable progress toward net-zero goals.
How Book and Claim Simplifies SAF Adoption
The book and claim system are a game changer for sustainable aviation fuel. Instead of requiring airlines to take physical delivery of SAF at specific airports, book and claim allows for:
- Purchases without geographic constraints, ensuring global participation in SAF adoption.
- Verified carbon reductions through certified transactions.
- A flexible and scalable approach, enabling businesses of all sizes to engage in decarbonization.
Multiple Benefits for Users
The myWorld Decarbonize Tool is more than just a purchasing system. It provides businesses with several key advantages:
- Simplified SAF procurement, reducing the complexity of direct fuel supply chains.
- Accurate carbon usage tracking, allowing users to monitor their fuel burn and emissions.
- Educational resources, helping companies understand the role of book and claim in achieving sustainability goals.
Certified for Compliance and Transparency
World Fuel Services ensures credibility by operating under multiple global certification frameworks, including:
- RSB CORSIA and ISCC – Ensuring SAF meets international sustainability criteria.
- EU Trader Certified – Complying with European Union regulations for renewable fuels.
These certifications provide customers with the necessary documentation to demonstrate regulatory compliance and ensure that SAF investments are making a real impact.
Beyond Aviation: A Holistic Approach to Sustainability
While the focus is on aviation, World Fuel Services extends its sustainability efforts to marine and operational services. The integration of SAF procurement into a broader decarbonization strategy demonstrates how industries can work together to reduce emissions across global transport sectors.
Conclusion: Making Net Zero a Reality
The launch of the myWorld Decarbonize Tool marks a significant step toward wider SAF adoption and aviation decarbonization. By eliminating logistical barriers and offering a flexible, transparent, and certified system, World Fuel Services is positioning itself as a leader in sustainable fuel solutions.
As more companies seek viable pathways to net zero emissions, solutions like this will be crucial in making sustainability goals achievable and scalable.
