Jet Aviation has partnered with sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) provider SkyNRG to launch its book-and-claim service. Book-and-claim will allow more SAF usage throughout the entire system by enabling aircraft operators who choose to use the renewable fuel to purchase it even where it is not physically present, with the actual fuel being dispensed at another location—typically near an SAF production center—to a different aircraft.

The volume of SAF in the transaction is tracked and verified and the carbon emissions reduction credits are assigned to the purchaser of the fuel rather than to the aircraft owner that receives it. This process ensures the environmental benefits are properly accounted for, including the avoidance of unnecessary fuel transportation, which could result in diminishing the SAF’s lifecycle greenhouse gas reductions. Jet Aviation offers continuous supplies of SAF at its FBO at California’s Van Nuys Airport and this week announced it will do the same at its Amsterdam Schiphol location in the Netherlands.

“As a global company with global customers, we are committed to contributing to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and are pleased to partner with SkyNRG to make SAF more widely accessible,” said Jet Aviation president David Paddock. “Global access to SAF through book and claim brings us one big step further in ensuring everyone can choose to be part of the climate solution–anywhere, anytime.”
