Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is emerging as a vital solution to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the aviation industry. With incremental policy targets like RefuelEU Aviation, our webinar delves into the ambitious scenario of achieving 100% SAF in aircraft fueling. Experts will discuss whether aircraft and operations are prepared for full SAF fueling, the latest in ASTM certification, airport infrastructure readiness, and how this shift could foster economic growth, particularly in developing regions such as Kenya.
