THERE IT IS shared his concern about the production of sustainable aviation fuel – PURE, which is advancing slower than estimated.
Sustainable aviation fuel production (PURE) advance at a slow pace. Despite the efforts of the industry, the growth of this type of fuel, which significantly reduces carbon emissions in aviation, is being hampered by various factors.
On the one hand, Governments are not providing the clear and consistent signals needed to drive investment in PURE. On the other hand, Investors are cautious and require greater guarantees before committing large sums of money. What's more, lack of adequate infrastructure to produce PURE on a large scale.
To accelerate the transition towards more sustainable aviation, it is essential to increase investments in SAF production, establish clear and coordinated government policies and create a global framework that facilitates trade in this fuel. Only in this way can we reduce carbon emissions from the airline sector and contribute to the fight against climate change..
But, what is happening?
- On 2024, SAF production volumes reached 1 million tons (1.300 million liters), double the 0,5 millions of tons (600 million liters) produced in 2023. SAF represented the 0,3% of global jet fuel production and 11% of global renewable fuel*.
- This is significantly below previous estimates that SAF's projected production in 2024 with 1,5 millions of tons (1.900 million liters), as SAF's main production facilities in the United States have delayed their production ramp-up until the first half of 2025.
- On 2025, SAF production is expected to reach 2,1 millions of tons (2,700 million liters), or the 0,7% of total jet fuel production and 13% of global renewable fuel capacity*.
The growing demand for air travel and the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions make the development of PURE be more urgent than ever. Nevertheless, progress is slow due to a combination of economic factors, politicians and technicians. It is imperative that governments, industry and investors work together to overcome these obstacles and ensure a more sustainable future for aviation.
Is SAF the green future of aviation?
