Urgency is growing behind the necessity to proportion production of sustainable fuels if aviation is to satisfy its climate targets. As more countries and their aviation industries plan to net-zero emissions by 2050, they're putting low-carbon fuels on the critical path to achieving that goal. The scale-up challenge is gigantic . Barely 0.01% of the 96 billion gal. (364 billion liters) of jet fuel consumed by the world’s airlines in 2019 was sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). But announced projects should boost production from just 60 million gal. in 2020 to 1 billion gal. per annum by 2025, says the Commercial Aviation Alternative Fuels Initiative (CAAFI). And unannounced projects could add another 1 billion gal. per year, taking the industry on the brink of its target of accelerating SAF use to twenty by 2025, the International air transportation Association (IATA) says. Europe’s sustainable fuel initiative is pending Biden administration is predicted to act on SAF Released in Sep...
