The aviation industry's contribution to global energy-related CO2 emissions underscores the urgent need for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) to combat climate change. With SAF capable of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 70-80%, the focus is on transitioning aircraft fuel to meet Net Zero targets. Recognizing the importance of SAF, industry experts like Boeing stress the necessity of expanding its usage to achieve environmental goals. Australia's reliance on imported jet fuel presents an opportunity for SAF to become a domestic product, benefiting both the environment and the economy. While SAF shares similarities with traditional jet fuel, its production costs and availability pose challenges to widespread adoption. Current SAF projects are predicted to fulfill only a fraction of jet fuel demand by 2030, emphasizing the need for increased investment and supportive policies to boost production capacity. Collaborative efforts, such as the NSW Powerfuel Including Hydrogen Network, are pivotal in driving research and innovation for sustainable aviation. Various types of SAF, including Bio-SAF and e-SAF, offer promising pathways to decarbonize aviation while maintaining performance standards. The NSW Decarbonisation Hub's initiative to reduce carbon emissions to net zero by 2050 aligns with the efforts to develop a local e-SAF industry. Through partnerships and research, experts aim to address technological challenges and enhance the cost-efficiency of SAF production. By exploring different feedstocks and processes, the aviation sector can effectively reduce its environmental footprint and pave the way for a sustainable future in air travel.
