Meeting the synthetic SAF mandates in practice
• Why e-SAF matters: Fossil kerosene fragility – recent events and impacts, strategic argument on top of sustainability for Europe to reduce dependence. Why e-SAF and not just bio-SAF.
• What are the barriers: Why the current e-SAF pathway is at risk of not achieving the RefuelEU Aviation mandates; cost comparisons between bio-SAF, e-SAF and fossil kerosene.
• How to get back on track: Measures needed to enable e-SAF plants to take FID; how to accelerate and over-achieve the targets; importance of methanol-to-jet as a production pathway.
