A coalition of international business aviation organizations and government officials announced ahead of the European Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition this week that they are emphasizing their focus on the development and adoption of Sustainable Alternative Jet Fuel.
The coalition is using their “Business Aviation Guide to the Use of Sustainable Alternative Fuel (SAJF)” to educate and raise awareness on the adoption of available and emerging sustainable alternative jet-fuel options.
The guide asserts that SAJF is safe but available in limited quantities, SAJF provides multiple benefits, and SAJF presents sustainable resources because they are produced from multiple feedstocks.
“The general aviation manufacturing industry is proud to partner with the rest of the industry on this important initiative that demonstrates our commitment to achieving the climate change goals we set for the industry in 2009 and will ensure we continue to grow in a sustainable manner,” Pete Bunce, General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) president and CEO, said. “I also want to extend a special thank you to Ms. (Claudia) Fusco from the European Commission for her presence here today, in support of this important sustainability initiative for aviation.”
The coalition includes the GAMA, the European Business Aviation Association, and the Commercial Aviation Alternative Fuels Initiative.
