Increasing Investment Opportunities for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF)
The increasing availability of investment and funding opportunities for SAF producers and suppliers. As awareness of climate change and the need for decarbonization grows, investors are increasingly prioritizing sustainable and socially-responsible investment opportunities, including those in the renewable energy and clean transportation sectors. For instance, in November 16, 2023, Macquarie Asset Management announced an initial investment of up to €175 million (US$189.3 million) in SkyNRG, through the Macquarie GIG Energy Transition Solutions (MGETS) Fund, aimed at supporting the growth of Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF).
This investment, led by Macquarie's specialist Green Investments team, will facilitate SkyNRG's expansion and help it achieve its goal of becoming a major SAF producer. SkyNRG plans to establish dedicated SAF facilities in Europe and the US by 2030, collaborating with strategic partners for offtake. Notably, SkyNRG has already secured partnerships with KLM Royal Dutch Airlines and Boeing, with anticipated long-term SAF purchase commitments amounting to up to €4 billion (US$4.3 billion).

How has COVID-19 had a Significant Negative Impact on the Sustainable Aviation Fuel Market?
The COVID-19 pandemic had a mixed impact on the sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) industry. Initially, the aviation industry faced a significant downturn as travel restrictions and lockdowns led to a drastic reduction in flight operations. This downturn affected SAF demand and production, as airlines scaled back operations and prioritized cost-saving measures over sustainability initiatives. However, the pandemic also highlighted the importance of environmental sustainability and resilience in the aviation sector. As recovery efforts began and airlines looked towards rebuilding operations, there was renewed interest in SAF as a key component of sustainability strategies. Governments and industry stakeholders recognized the need to prioritize green recovery measures, including investments in SAF production and infrastructure.
The pandemic also spurred innovation and collaboration in the SAF sector. Companies accelerated research and development efforts to improve SAF production processes, reduce costs, and enhance scalability. Partnerships and collaborations between airlines, fuel producers, and governments were forged to drive SAF adoption and support industry recovery with a focus on sustainability.
Overall, while the initial impact of COVID-19 was challenging for the SAF industry, it also catalyzed resilience, innovation, and renewed commitment to sustainability, positioning SAF as a critical component of the aviation sector's long-term sustainability goals.

What are the Current Market Drivers?
Technological Advancements and Innovation in SAF Processes
Technological advancements and innovations in SAF production processes are accelerating market growth by enhancing the efficiency, scalability, and cost-effectiveness of SAF production. Significant investments in research and development are driving improvements in feedstock conversion technologies, such as Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, hydro processing, and pyrolysis, enabling the production of SAF from a wide range of sustainable feedstocks. For instance, in April 2024, Honeywell announced that its Fischer-Tropsch (FT) Unicracking hydrocracking technology can convert biomass, such as crop residue, wood, and food waste, into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). DG Fuels will employ this technology at its SAF facility in Louisiana, with a production capacity of 13,000 barrels per day (b/d) starting in 2028.
Environmental Sustainability and Decarbonization Initiatives
Increasing awareness of environmental issues and corporate sustainability goals are driving airlines, aircraft manufacturers, and other aviation stakeholders to prioritize the adoption of SAF as part of their sustainability strategies. Pressure from consumers, investors, and regulatory bodies to reduce carbon emissions and mitigate the environmental impact of air travel is prompting airlines to invest in SAF as a key component of their decarbonization efforts. For instance, in March 2024, International Airlines Group (IAG) announced its largest SAF (785,000 tonnes) purchase agreement with e-SAF (power-to-liquid) producer Twelve. This fuel, made from carbon dioxide, water, and renewable energy sources, is expected to reduce lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions by up to 90% compared to conventional jet fuel. The agreement is set to support IAG's five European airlines, namely British Airways, Iberia, Aer Lingus, Vueling, and LEVEL, in their sustainability efforts.
