Renewable fuel pathways for aviation
Medium- and long-distance aviation requires energy-dense fuels that meet strict safety, performance and certification standards. Synthetic aviation fuels are one pathway being developed to reduce reliance on fossil jet fuel while maintaining compatibility with existing aviation systems, subject to approved specifications and blend limits.
The Challenge
Ocean-going vessels operate across long distances and demanding duty cycles. Fuel choices affect onboard storage, cargo capacity, safety, engine compatibility and port infrastructure. No single pathway provides the same advantages for every vessel, route or operating profile.
What Must Be Verified
Lifecycle emissions
Renewable electricity sourcing
Carbon source
Fuel certification
Traceability
Airport supply readiness
