Key characteristics of relevant SAF pathways in the United States

  Several U.S. states have recently implemented or are considering policies to encourage the use of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). While existing pathways can deliver significant reductions, their limited supply covers only a fraction of U.S. jet fuel consumption. This ICCT visual shows the most promising candidates for decarbonizing aviation. Read more in SAF policy […]
