Our Sustainable Aviation Fuel Coalition, which includes over 50 participants ranging from agricultural producers to industrial partners, is actively advocating for federal policies to accelerate the production of Sustainable Aviation Fuel. Ag Info covered our coalition in a podcast, explaining how we focus on outreach to policymakers for furthering homegrown feedstocks to create jobs for American farmers and establish the United States as a global leader in this emerging sector. This collaborative effort seeks to build a more competitive economic landscape by leveraging local resources and technological innovation to meet future energy needs.
Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is a biofuel used to power aircraft that has similar properties to conventional jet fuel, but with a smaller carbon footprint. SAF, which is made from renewable biomass and waste-based feedstocks, can be used in all existing turbine aircraft, and reduces aviation lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) by as much as 80%.
