Fly FIVE Introducing the NEXT LEVEL in aviation by FIVE HOTELS AND RESORTS

“Most SAF today comes from one to two different feedstocks with a narrow range of blends. As SAF expands to new feedstocks and higher blends, transparency about the fuel and where it came from will be criticalin efforts to scale its use across the industry,includingboth business and commercialaviation,”said Kennedy Ricci, President of 4AIR. “Assure SAF Registry will provide a key piece of infrastructurefor the transparent scale-up of SAF in aviation,providing transparency to emission claimsaround SAF while maximizingthe value for the operator.”

Leveraging the expertise gained through the documentation of 5.8 milliongallons of SAF over the last 2 years, 4AIR created a registry that addresses the mostchallenging pain points found when tracing the usage of SAF. Usually, SAF is co-mingled in airport pipelines or fuel farms under mass balance or book and claim chains of custody, making it laborious to document, particularlywhen trying to retain informationfor regulatory claimsfrom the use of the fuel.

Business aviation has long been a pioneer in aviation sustainability. The 2009 Business Aviation Commitment on Climate Change (BACCC) pledged that the industry would reduce carbon emissions 50% by 2050, increase fuel efficiency 2% per year from 2010 to 2020, and achieve carbon-neutral growth from 2020.

London Oxford Airport has ambitions to be a leading centre for ‘green tech’ sectors

London Oxford Airport, the UK’s fifth-ranked busiest business aviation airport,is pivotingto offer a prospective new centre for innovationand green tech with a proposed new R&D science park at the entrance to the Airport. Whilefocused on the burgeoning life sciences sector, it states the new facilitywould also appeal to new Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) and Urban Air Mobility (UAM) players and their affiliates, championing innovationsin motors,batteries, composites,hydrogen, synthetic and alternative fuels, all of which are already evolving in the vicinity

EBACE 2023 will showcase the ongoing industry’s efforts to ensure a zero-carbon future for the sector. From next-generation propulsion systems, advanced air mobility, carbon-reduction advances, and other sustainability initiatives.
