The path to meeting the 2030 Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and e-SAF mandates under the ReFuelEU initiative is clear, but it requires steadfast policy support and long-term contracts to ensure success, according to Francesco Catte, Aviation Policy Manager at Transport & Environment (T&E).
In an exclusive interview, Catte highlighted that the supply of biofuels is sufficient to meet the 2030 targets, with many European airlines already procuring substantial amounts. “There is enough biofuel. Airlines are already buying and procuring it,” he stated, pointing to analyses showing significant commitments from airlines.
