easyJet reaches agreement with Moeve for supply of SAF for six years

Moeve and easyJet have signed a memorandum of understanding to accelerate the decarbonisation of air transport by promoting sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).
The agreement gives easyJet access to SAF for six years, from 2025 until 2030, on the airline’s route network in Spain.
Moeve produces SAF at its La Rábida Energy Park (Huelva) from used cooking oils.
Álvaro Macarro, Moeve’s director of sustainable aviation, said: “We believe that SAF is the immediate solution for a more sustainable aviation and therefore we supply it at the main airports of the Iberian Peninsula and the Canary Islands on a permanent basis.
“This new milestone reached with easyJet, a leading airline in Spain, is absolutely fundamental for our joint decarbonisation journey with our clients.”
Raminder Shergill, director of tax and fuel strategy at easyJet, said: “We are committed to decarbonising our operations and SAF is going to play a vital role in helping us achieve that mission.
“We’re therefore delighted to have signed this agreement with Moeve to serve our Spanish network as we continue to take steps to reducing the impact of our flying.”
To ensure a supply of SAF to its clients, Moeve is building, together with its partners, a new plant with a flexible production capacity of 0.5 million metric tons of SAF and renewable diesel that will form part of the largest second-generation biofuels complex in southern Europe when it begins operation in 2026.
With this project, the company is making further progress towards its goal of becoming the top producer of 2G biofuels in Spain and Portugal, with an annual production capacity of 2.5 million metric tons of biofuels by 2030, of which 800,000 metric tons will be from SAF, an amount sufficient for 2,000 flights around the planet.
