Neste MY Sustainable Aviation Fuel™ – A lower-GHG-emission alternative* to fossil jet fuel

Neste MY Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is a lower-GHG-emission alternative to fossil jet fuel, readily available to help reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions* in aviation. SAF is an available solution for reducing the climate impact of aviation**.

*)Neat, i.e. unblended, Neste MY Sustainable Aviation Fuel fulfills the ReFuelEU Aviation criteria, including the requirement to provide at least a 65% greenhouse gas emission savings over its life cycle when compared to fossil fuel. While SAF and fossil jet fuel release similar amounts of CO2 during flight, SAF’s life cycle climate impact is smaller than fossil jet fuel’s. SAF is certified for commercial use and can currently be blended up to 50% with conventional jet .

**)When verified to fulfill the mandatory sustainability criteria in accordance with e.g. ReFuelEU, CORSIA, neat i.e. unblended SAF, provides greenhouse gas emission savings over its life cycle when compared to fossil fuel. While SAF and fossil jet fuel release similar amounts of CO2 during flight, SAF’s life cycle climate impact is smaller than fossil jet .

Why Neste MY Sustainable Aviation FuelTM?

Flying connects our world, supports global business and enables essential movement. But to preserve these benefits for the future, the aviation industry must address its climate impact and transition away from its reliance on fossil fuels. 

Neste MY Sustainable Aviation Fuel is a lower-climate-impact alternative to fossil jet fuel, and has lower greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions* over its life cycle compared to fossil jet fuel .

Neste MY SAF is a drop-in solution and fully compliant with ASTM D7566 specifications. The  fuel is ready for use in existing aircraft engines and airport infrastructure once blended with fossil jet fuel*.

Why Neste?
