Renewable Jet Fuel
Renewable jet fuel – sometimes known as sustainable aviation fuels – are low-carbon alternatives for the aviation industry. These non-petroleum drop-in aviation fuels are produced from bio-based feedstocks. The use of alternative aviation fuels, along with efficiencies in operations and aircraft design, is intended to reduce the industry’s share of greenhouse gas emissions and lower the overall climate impact of aviation. The drive to develop viable, fully commercialized alternative fuels for aviation is gaining momentum. By the end of 2018, over 100,000 commercial alternative fuel flights had already taken off, and over 1.5 billion gallons of off-take agreements were achieved.
