In Cyprus, Cyprus Mail reported that SAF production is expected to have doubled in 2025 but will continue to account for less than one per cent of global jet fuel consumption, according to new estimates released by the International Air Transport Association (IATA).
In 2025, SAF output is expected to reach 1.9 million tons, equivalent to 2.4 billion liters, up from around 1 million tons in 2024.
However, growth is projected to slow in 2026, with production rising to 2.4m tons, according to the report.
Despite the increase, SAF production in 2025 will represent just 0.6% of total jet fuel consumption, rising to 0.8% the following year.
IATA said the estimated SAF output for 2025 represents a downward revision from earlier forecasts, citing a lack of policy support to fully utilize installed SAF capacity.
