. The industry is aiming to reach net-zero emissions by 2050, relying on SAF usage to rise from around 100 million liters a year in 2021 to at least 449 billion liters a year within three decades, a massive challenge.Australia has no SAF production so far and has no mandates for the fuel, unlike the European Union, which last week approved plans to require suppliers to blend a minimum of 2% of SAF into their jet fuel from 2025, rising to 85% in 2050.
BP's plant on the west coast and an A$500 million plant being built by private firm Oceania Biofuels on the east coast will be the country's first two SAF plants. Oceania's plant will be able to produce more than 350 million liters per year of sustainable aviation fuel and renewable diesel. Nation, Qantas Airways and Boeing Co officials said the government needs to impose mandates or provide subsidies, tax breaks or a carbon pricing mechanism to spur development of the industry, which they said would be crucial to make long-haul travel affordable for Australians as the world shifts to green fuels.
Qantas and Airbus said last month they would invest up to $200 million to accelerate the development of a SAF industry in Australia.

Absolutely nothing in the article about how they are making it, what raw materials they are going to use or how much of anything is going to be consumed. Yet try to put up a wind turbine or solar panel and it’s all about how damaging it is to the environment.
Why does this place look like Rust from Cod?
🤮
The colour green, right? Because jet fuel definitely isn’t clean…
