Cepsa sells SAF at four major Spanish airports
The energy company is now selling SAF at Madrid, Barcelona, Palma de Mallorca and Seville.
The energy company, currently one of the main manufacturers and suppliers of aviation fuels in the Spanish market, produces this sustainable fuel at its La Rábida Energy Park (Huelva) from organic waste, such as used cooking oils and agricultural waste.
Tobi Pardo, Cepsa's aviation director, said: "We want to make sustainable aviation a reality as soon as possible. We are therefore proud to offer our SAF on an ongoing basis to customers in the aviation industry.
“For the first time in Spain, four of the country’s main airports have access to this sustainable fuel, which will allow airlines to move forward in their own decarbonization processes."
This milestone comes a few months after Cepsa supplied sustainable aviation fuel to more than 200 flights at Seville Airport in a pioneering move that marked the first supply of SAF at an airport in Southern Europe.
It was also the first time in Spain that the entire value chain had traceability certified by the ISCC EU (International Sustainability Carbon Certification) system, from the manufacture of sustainable aviation fuel to its physically supplying it.
