How does SAF reduce emissions? Exploring its benefits

Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) indeed holds promise for reducing aviation's environmental impact by offering up to an 80% reduction in carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions across its lifecycle compared to traditional jet fuels. SAF is derived from renewable sources, such as used cooking oil, waste animal fats, and other biomass. This closed-loop process involves CO₂ absorption by feedstock materials like plants during their growth, which is later released upon combustion in an aircraft engine, aligning CO₂ levels in a more sustainable cycle rather than adding new emissions from fossil sources.
