Bipartisan House bill seeks to reinstate aviation SAF tax credit

A small bipartisan group of House lawmakers introduced legislation to reinstate an aviation-specific sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) tax credit, aiming to lower SAF costs and accelerate airline uptake. The bill would restore a lapsed biofuel subsidy and re-establish federal demand incentives for SAF producers and offtakers.

India could become global SAF export hub using low‑carbon ethanol, says Triveni CEO India is positioning itself as a global sustainable aviation fuel export hub by converting its large ethanol surplus into low‑carbon SAF. Industry leaders say plants could be operational by 2029, enabling exports to Southeast Asia and the Middle East and leveraging India’s carbon‑intensity advantage.

KLM urges Dutch government to establish national SAF fund to scale domestic production KLM has urged the Dutch government to create a national SAF production fund to scale domestic sustainable aviation fuel supply, cut emissions and protect the Netherlands’ global air connectivity. The carrier says state-backed support is needed to accelerate projects and guarantee long‑term offtake.

Industry reckoning: SAF shortfall and rising costs unravel aviation's net‑zero plans Stalled production, rising costs and evaporating net‑zero claims mean sustainable aviation fuel will fall short of aviation's expectations in 2026, undermining decades of industry commitments. Airlines, manufacturers and policymakers must rapidly rethink decarbonisation strategies that assumed large‑scale SAF supply, affordable pricing and reliance on offsets.

IATA trims 2025 SAF forecast to 1.9 Mt, warns growth still falls short of airlines' decarbonisation needs IATA has cut its 2025 sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) forecast to 1.9 million tonnes (≈2.4 billion litres) — roughly double 2024 but only about 0.6% of global jet fuel and half previous expectations. High costs, weak policy support and slower scaling put mandates and airline decarbonisation targets at risk.
