Flights are set to be greener as the UK’s ambitious sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) mandate officially came into force on New Year’s Day.
SAF is made from sustainable sources and by law, this type of fuel must now make up at least 2% of all jet fuel in flights taking off from the UK from 2025, growing year-on-year to 10% by 2030 and 22% by 2040.
These ambitious... [Read More]
