ISTANBUL - While the production of fuel from renewable sources is increasing, governments have to step in to support the aviation industry’s transition towards sustainable energy by boosting the development of sustainable aviation fuel.
Iata director-general Willie Walsh said the aviation industry is counting on access to such fuel to provide 62 per cent of the reduction in carbon emissions needed to achieve its 2050 target. Mr Walsh said: “While critics of our industry dismiss that figure as irrelevant, it’s important to remember that airlines used every single drop costing almost US$350 million . With the right supportive policies, reaching 30 billion litres by 2030 is challenging but achievable.”
Typically, production sites can produce other types of fuel such as renewable diesel. This means that producers have to see the value of committing to aviation fuel over the alternatives. This is one of nine recognised ways to create sustainable aviation fuel. Not all are as commercially attractive or immediately ready for producers to embark on in a significant manner.
