Experts: SAF Alone Insufficient for Air Cargo Decarbonisation Goals
Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is a cornerstone of the air cargo industry's strategy to achieve net-zero emissions, but it is not a standalone solution. Industry experts warn that significant challenges, including high costs and limited production scalability, prevent SAF from being a silver bullet. To meet ambitious climate targets, a multi-faceted approach is required. This includes massive investment in fleet modernization with more fuel-efficient aircraft. Additionally, enhancing operational efficiencies throughout the logistics chain is crucial. Therefore, a holistic strategy combining SAF with new technologies and operational improvements is essential for genuine decarbonisation.
