                                 Sustainable Aviation Fuel: Power-to-Liquids
The UK Government launched their Jet Zero Strategy in 2022, setting out how to achieve net zero aviation by 2050. Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is one of six key measures outlined in the strategy and a mandate will be introduced in 2025 to deliver at least 10% SAF in the UK jet fuel mix by 2030. Currently most of the SAF provided in the UK is derived from waste oils via the HEFA process1, as it is the cheapest route, however, to meet Government’s target, a portfolio of feedstock and production pathways will be required. Power-to-Liquids (PtL) is one novel production route being developed.
