Sustainable aviation fuel: financing the scale‐up (New York)

ATAG is partnering with BloombergNEF to organise a briefing on Sustainable aviation fuel: financing the scale‐up in New York on Wednesday 16 October

Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) is one of the few low-carbon technologies with the potential to help decarbonise aviation, and the only feasible option in the near term.

The nascent SAF industry continues to show promise, with the number of offtake agreements surging in the past two years as airlines demonstrate their commitment to the fuel, and new projects boost anticipated production capacity. But hurdles remain, namely scarcity of supply, competition for resources, and a lack of technological diversification.

These hurdles have led to significant barriers when securing financing projects. If unaddressed, these will lead to substantial bottlenecks and could cause the aviation industry to fall short of its ambitious goals.

The briefing is principally for the finance community and investors. If you are interested in attending, please email events@atag.org for more information. Please note that the event capacity is limited.
