SUSTAINABLE AVIATION FUEL IS A SAFE AND PROVEN SOLUTION TO MEET THE AVIATION INDUSTRY’S CLIMATE TARGETS

SAF is commercially available and in use worldwide.Today.

The aviation industry is moving boldly to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. Meanwhile, with the projected growth of passenger air travel and freight, the increase in aviation emissions is also expected to grow over the next few years. Mitigating these emissions is an enormous challenge. Many alternatives to fossil aviation fuel, like hydrogen or electrification, won’t be available for the aviation industry in the near future. Luckily there is a solution available to replace fossil aviation fuel and reduce GHG emissions today: Neste MY Sustainable Aviation Fuel™ (SAF).

Neste MY SAF is a safe, proven replacement for fossil aviation fuel. It is essential for the industry’s transition to lower carbon operations. Neste MY SAF is currently being used by many leading commercial airlines, including Air France-KLM, Lufthansa, Delta and American Airlines, and cargo carriers such as DP-DHL, Amazon Prime Air and UPS.

Our sustainable aviation fuel is available at many major airports, including San Francisco International Airport (SFO), Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), Frankfurt Airport (FRA), Amsterdam Airport (AMS), Changi Airport (SIN) and Narita International Airport (NRT). We also work with industry leading fuel distributors to provide Neste MY SAF to business aviation customers.

For airlines, there are multiple benefits in adopting SAF

Reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions

SAF is a cleaner alternative to fossil fuel, achieving up to an 80%* reduction in GHG emissions over the fuel's lifecycle, compared to conventional fossil jet fuel. Airlines can lower their carbon footprint and reach their sustainability goals faster.

Available today and future-proof

SAF is a drop-in solution that allows airlines to reduce emissions with no new investments or modifications to the engines needed.

Sustainability leadership

Airlines are positioned as forerunners in the industry and are considered environmentally conscious.

Win trust from key stakeholders

Airlines can win trust from investors, increase customer loyalty, meet regulatory requirements, and stand out from the increasing competition by showing meaningful climate action.

REDUCE GREENHOUSE GAS (GHG) EMISSIONS

SAF is a cleaner aviation fuel than fossil fuel, reducing GHG emissions by up to 80%* over the fuel's lifecycle, compared to using conventional fossil jet fuel. Airlines can lower their carbon footprint and reach their sustainability goals faster.

WIN TRUST FROM KEY STAKEHOLDERS

SAF helps airlines to win trust from investors, increase customer loyalty, meet regulatory requirements, and stand out from the increasing competition by showing meaningful climate action.

*) Calculated with established life cycle assessment(LCA) methodologies, such as CORSIA methodology.

For airports, SAF brings many environmental and economic benefits

Fight climate change meaningfully

Airports can help fight climate change by lowering their value chain emissions (Scope 3).

Contribute to cleaner air

Airports are able to improve the air quality around the airport and for surrounding communities by reducing other emissions, such as NOx and particulate matter, if aircrafts are fueled with sustainable aviation fuel.

Airports are able to grow

With our aviation fuel, airports are able to grow and at the same time meet their sustainability goals and GHG reduction targets. SAF also supports their programs and initiatives under the ACI Airport Carbon Accreditation scheme.

No additional investment needed

SAF is a drop-in solution and works seamlessly with existing airport fuel supply infrastructure.
