The aviation sector remains one of the biggest drivers of the international economy and is seen stressed mainly by multiple global triggers including fuel costs. While the aviation is a big contributor to climate change, Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) can dramatically contribute to decreasing carbon footprint, the World Economic Forum (WEF) said, explaining the advantages of SAF.
According to WEF’s blog, “We already have the answer in Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), which is the only option for long haul flights to decarbonise. Long haul flights are responsible for 70% of global aviation emissions, hence we urgently need to scale up production and drive down costs.”
Despite being critical, SAF is a proven technology, which was used as far back during World War II to fly fighters when oil was scarce, the WEF blog said, adding that so far, it is an under-utilised tool that can unlock aviation’s goal of net zero emissions by 2050.
