In Japan, Tank Terminals reported that Japanese oil major Cosmo Oil Marketing said it has signed sustainable aviation fuel supply deal with Delta Air Lines to supply the fuel. “SAF is currently the best option for decarbonizing the aviation industry, but the amount produced is less than enough to fuel even one week’s supply for commercial airlines around the world. By working with the Cosmo Energy Group and receiving our own supply of SAF, we hope to demonstrate the importance of increasing supply around the world and bring us one step closer to reducing carbon dioxide emissions,” said Amelia DeLuca, chief sustainability officer, Delta Airlines. The supply will begin from 2025 and the SAF will be produced by Saffaire Sky Energy, a joint venture between Cosmo Oil, JGC Holdings and Revo International. Cosmo recently signed a separate supply agreement with Finland’s national flag carrier Finnair.
