In the UK, Travel Radar reported that the sustainable aviation fuel bill will be moved on November 20 by the members of the House of Lords.
The aim of the bill is to utilize strategies to meet the supply demand with SAF mandate of 2% blending in 2025 to 22% by 2040.
On January 1, 2025, the government imposed a SAF mandate on the aviation industry to blend a minimum and increasing percentage of SAF into the total fuel mix for flights departing the UK. The rise is targeted from 2% in 2025 to 22% in 2040, according to the report.
To meet these targets and support the commercial production of SAF in the UK, the Sustainable Aviation Fuel Bill was introduced on May 14, 2025 in the House of Commons.
One of the main targets of the bill is to introduce a Revenue Certainty Mechanism. The Secretary of State may instruct a government-owned counterparty to enter contracts with SAF producers while reducing investment risks. A fixed “strike price” for SAF will be guaranteed over a defined period, the report added.
