In the UK, easyJet, Braathens Renavia, in partnership with Mana Group and World Fuel Services, announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding today for the long-term supply of sustainable aviation fuel for easyJet’s operations in Europe and the UK. The agreement supports the airline’s decarbonisation strategy and is expected to give easyJet access to up to 150,000 tons of SAF (including up to 75,000 tons of e-SAF) from 2030. The SAF supplied by Braathens Renavia and Mana Group is expected to be produced using gasification of biomass and solid waste, further enhanced with hydrogen generated from renewable energy sources. easyJet’s Director of Tax & Fuel Strategy, Raminder Shergill, said: “We are committed to supporting the growth of the SAF industry and delighted to have the opportunity to invest in e-SAF, which is expected to deliver as much as 90% lower emissions than conventional jet fuel, in support of our decarbonization strategy.”
