Unfortunately, SAF production rates are insufficient to meet demand, and prices remain high, despite the recent exponential increase in production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The time for action is now. Without SAF, governments will struggle to meet their climate goals set by the Paris Climate Agreement and their commitments to economic growth, which relies heavily on aviation for tourism, trade, and connectivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What governments should do<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Provide strong incentives to encourage investment in SAF production, including tax credits, grants or other financial incentives.<br>Work with the sector to set ambitious SAF production targets.<br>Coordinate their actions through the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO), the specialised UN agency for aviation, to ensure global uniformity in SAF regulations, sustainability standards, procedures, and organisation.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WTTC President &amp; CEO Julia Simpson said: \u201cIt is time for governments to take bold action and prioritise the production of sustainable aviation fuel. We are calling on all governments to act now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The demand for SAF has never been higher. Airlines worldwide want to use SAF and have used every molecule ever made. However, current SAF production only meets 0.1% to 0.15% of the requirement, despite a 200% increase in production in 2022 vs 2021. This leaves a massive gap that can only be filled through rapid and sustained investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAt today\u2019s prices, SAF is three to five times more expensive than traditional fossil fuels. Governments must address this cost disparity by providing financial support and incentives to make SAF more accessible and affordable. Without those targets and those incentives, the sector cannot decarbonise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ABU DHABI UAE, 26 May 2023: The World Travel &amp; Tourism Council (WTTC) calls on governments worldwide to \u201cget serious\u201d on incentivising Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) production and set ambitious targets to produce adequate quantities.
