Brazil has taken a decisive step in its aviation decarbonization journey: Salvador Bahia Airport has become the country’s first airport to supply sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) for regular commercial operations. Starting in November 2025, the airport began delivering blended SAF for daily flights operated by two major Brazilian carriers, setting a new benchmark for sustainable aviation in…

The global push for low-carbon aviation accelerated in December 2025, with major developments in sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) supply, certification, policy, and production capacity. For C-suite leaders in aviation, energy, and logistics, these moves signal a clear shift: SAF is no longer a niche experiment, but a core lever for decarbonization, regulatory compliance, and long-term competitiveness. From…

Decarbonizing Where Batteries Can’t Across industries like aviation, shipping, and heavy manufacturing, decarbonization remains one of the most complex challenges. These sectors depend on high-energy-density liquid fuels, where battery electrification is not technically or economically viable. While hydrogen holds immense promise as a clean energy carrier, transporting and storing pure hydrogen remains difficult and costly,…

Highlights Evaluates the trade-off between cost and emission reductions across the full SAF lifecycle. Forecasts production costs for 29 SAF pathways using a multiple regression model. Identifies HEFA as the most cost-effective production route. Finds Fischer-Tropsch (FT) fuels deliver the strongest carbon mitigation performance. Aviation’s Turning Point: The Need for Sustainable Fuels Global air…

A New Era of Clean Energy Begins The world’s energy transition is moving faster than ever, and one innovation stands out: e-fuels. These synthetic fuels are rapidly becoming essential for decarbonizing sectors that cannot simply switch to electricity such as aviation, shipping, and heavy industry. The global e-fuels market was valued at around USD 18…

Europe’s Renewable Fuel Revolution: How Policy, Trade, and Innovation Are Powering the Sustainable Aviation Fuel Market Europe and the UK are redefining the global sustainable aviation fuel market, leading the transition to renewable fuels through ambitious policies, trade protections, and rapid innovation. Their combined efforts are transforming aviation, transport, and industry while strengthening energy security…
