Powering Progress Through Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF)

Scale

SAF accounts for <0.1% of global jet fuel, yet it’s possible to produce it
worldwide and boost job growth.

Investing in SAF can:¹

Create jobs to gather, process, and transport feedstock.
Improve regional energy independence and resilience.
Drive down costs as production ramps up.

Protect

SAF contains fewer impurities like sulfur, creating less new pollutants in
communities
around airports.

Increased use of SAF can:²

Enable reductions in sulfur dioxide and particulate matter emissions.
Protect airport workers from the negative impacts of pollutants.
Help improve air quality at airports and surrounding communities.

Renew

SAF can reduce carbon emissions by up to 80% on a lifecycle basis compared to
fossil
fuels.

ENVIRONMENTAL³

When compared to fossil fuels, SAF can:³

Restore an ecological balance by preserving natural resources.
Be produced from municipal waste which would typically be left to decay.
Allow business travel to be a force for good for the long-term.
