In Estonia Ceenergy News reported that Estonia and Latvia have launched a joint project aimed at exploring the potential for producing sustainable, environmentally friendly aviation fuels in their countries. The European Commission has allocated $216,000 to each country to support the initiative. According to Taivo Linnamägi, head of the aviation department at the Ministry of Climate of Estonia, the project lays the groundwork for greener aviation. “Sustainable aviation fuels can greatly reduce emissions in the aviation sector. While some eco-friendly fuels are already in use, meeting climate goals will require a substantial increase in production and the broader availability of these fuels,” Linnamägi explained. The project will include interviews with key industry stakeholders, resulting in a detailed, country-specific analysis of fuel production opportunities and technologies. It will also produce recommendations for enhancing the competitiveness of both countries in the aviation sector, offering support to policymakers in implementing these suggestions, the report added.
