SAF are considered key to decarbonizing aviation, but current commercial limitations mean that SAF only provides around 40% emissions reduction.
Stated energy transition goals
- Net-zero emissions by 2050.9
- 73%10 of large publicly traded aviation companies consider climate change in their decision-making processes.
Emission focus areas for tracker
Aviation emissions can be divided into two main categories:
1. Well-to-tank mainly upstream emissions from production and distribution of fossil fuels
2. Tank-to-wake primarily due to combustion of fossil fuels, predominantly jet fuel, used during flight operations.
