IATA - Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF)
WEBSAF is a liquid fuel currently used in commercial aviation which reduces CO2 emissions by up to 80%. It can be produced from a number of sources (feedstock) including waste oil and fats, green and municipal waste and non-food crops.

WEBSustainable Aviation Fuel: Safe, Reliable, Low Carbon SAF is a biofuel used to power aircraft that has similar properties to conventional jet fuel but with a smaller carbon footprint. Depending on the feedstock and technologies used to produce it, SAF can reduce life cycle GHG emissions dramatically compared to conventional jet fuel.
What is sustainable aviation fuel and how is it made?
WEBNov 29, 2023 · One of the ways airlines could cut their emissions is by transitioning away from using petroleum-based fuels to using a low-carbon alternative known as sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). Aviation is responsible for around 2.5% of global carbon emissions.
WEBCost-competitive, environmentally sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) are recognized as a critical part of decoupling carbon growth from market growth. Renewable and wasted carbon can provide a path to low-cost, clean-burning, and low-soot-producing jet fuel.

WEBThrough the MOU, DOE, DOT, and USDA intend to accelerate the research, development, demonstration, and deployment needed for an ambitious government-wide commitment to scale up the production of SAF to 35 billion gallons per year by 2050.
WEBThe state of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) in 2023. We estimate that SAF could contribute around 65% of the reduction in emissions needed by aviation to reach net-zero in 2050. This will require a massive increase in production (see …
WEBWhat is the role of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) in helping the industry meet its climate change commitments? Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF)3 is a colloquial term used in two primary ways: 1. To describe the family of jet fuels comprised of a blend of conventional jet fuel with non-conventional, more sustainable blending agents. This SAF blend
What is sustainable aviation fuel (SAF)? - bp
WEBSAF stands for sustainable aviation fuel. It’s produced from sustainable feedstocks and is very similar in its chemistry to traditional fossil jet fuel. Using SAF results in a reduction in carbon emissions compared to the traditional jet fuel it replaces over the lifecycle of the fuel.
