Sustainable Aviation Fuel
With governments and airlines committed to decarbonizing aviation by 2050, innovative solutions are required and sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) could play a major role in meeting targets. IATA estimates that SAF could contribute around 65% of the reduction in emissions needed by aviation to reach net-zero in 2050. This will, however, require a massive increase in production in order to meet demand.
