Luxaviation Group, parent of the ExecuJet FBO chain, announced that it has begun stocking sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) at its location at European business aviation hub Paris Le Bourget Airport. The company will now provide a blend of up to 35% SAF derived from used cooking oil refined through the HEFA process.
As an example of the environmental benefits from its use, the company noted that a Bombardier Global 7500 flying between its FBOs at Le Bourget and Johannesburg, South Africa, on a 35% SAF blend would reduce the CO2 emissions from the flight by 20 tons.
The addition of SAF follows the Le Bourget facility’s transition to fully electric ground service equipment.
“As the industry aligns with global environmental goals and the Business Aviation Commitment on Climate Change, sustainability stands at the cornerstone of Luxaviation Group, paving the way for a more sustainable future in aviation,” said company CEO Patrick Hansen. “We strive to set new standards and inspire others to join us in embracing innovation to enhance corporate social responsibility.”
