Executive Abstract
Comprehensive status report on global SAF production facilities, feedstock supply security, and blending mandate implementations.
💡 Key Takeaways & Recommendations
Commercial aviation faces stringent net-zero mandates. Dropping-in sustainable aviation fuels offers the only viable near-term decarbonization vector. Production capacity grew 180% year-over-year, yet remains under 3% of global Jet-A demand.
