In the UK, Business Airport International reported that Million Air Austin has added sustainable aviation fuel at Austin Bergstrom International Airport in partnership with Avfuel Corporation.
“Austin is a business-centric city that also values environmental responsibility,” said Roger Woolsey, chief executive at Million Air Interlink. “Bringing SAF to Million Air Austin is about giving our customers options that align with both their travel needs and their sustainability goals.”
The fuel has a targeted blend percentage of 30% neat SAF to 70% traditional jet fuel. For every 8,000-gallon truckload of fuel, the SAF provides a 19 metric ton reduction in carbon emissions over the fuel’s lifecycle compared to petroleum-based jet fuel.
“The Million Air team has been a partner to work with in expanding sustainable fuel solutions,” said Mark Haynes, vice president of sales at Avfuel. “We’re proud to collaborate with them to establish our first SAF-supplied location in Texas and help further their corporate initiatives on sustainability.”
