Sustainable aviation fuel take-up in UK unlikely to hit 2025 target, data suggests
Provisional figures in government mandate’s first year show 20% shortfall in levels of SAF supplied for UK flights
AI Summary
UK's uptake of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) is projected to miss the initial 2025 target due to a 20% shortfall in required volumes. According to provisional data released by the Department for Transport, SAF made up just 1.6% of total fuel supplies for UK flights during the first year of the government's mandate, falling short of the targeted 2%. This comes despite an increase in demand for cleaner alternatives amid growing concerns over climate change.
