SAF

A bipartisan group of US lawmakers has introduced a bill that would restore and extend a key federal incentive for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), aiming to stabilize a sector that developers say has been shaken by shifting policy. The Securing America's Fuels Act would reinstate the higher, SAF-specific rate within the Clean Fuel Production Tax Credit and extend it through 2033, providing a tax credit of $1.

IATA Director General Willie Walsh criticized the EU's Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) mandates as failing to address the root causes of delays and sustainability challenges. The industry is facing significant hurdles in meeting ambitious climate targets due to supply scarcity and rising prices.
