Ahead of COP30, Bizav Notes SAF Availability

World leaders and scientists will gather to discuss climate topics, including the use of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) to reduce aircraft carbon emissions, at the United Nation’s COP 30 conference next week in Belém, Brazil. In its neat form, SAF can reduce life cycle greenhouse gas emissions in turbine aircraft by up to 80%.

The Business Aviation Coalition for Sustainable Fuel—a partnership of more than 20 companies and trade associations dedicated to the scaling of SAF production and its use—is highlighting the industry’s position at the forefront of SAF adoption ahead of the conference.

Retail accessibility to SAF is now available at more than 100 locations worldwide through direct uplift, and, through the book-and-claim process, customers can purchase the environmental benefits of SAF at thousands of more locations, strategically expanding its global reach and impact to address emissions and promote investment directly into future SAF production increases.

COP30 takes place 10 years after the Paris climate agreement, in which countries pledged to try to restrict the rise in average global temperatures to 1.5 degrees C. The coalition encourages aircraft operators globally to contact their fuel providers, FBOs, and sustainability advisors to identify SAF options—especially for flights next week to Brazil for the conference—and for all future missions.
