In the UK, Financial Times reported that fossil fuels will account for more than three-quarters of fuel used by airlines beyond 2040, according to the British government’s own projections. The government is only expecting 22% of UK jet fuel to be supplied by SAF by 2040, according to a document dated December 2024. The UK government in January introduced a mandate that required fuel producers to supply a portion of SAF for flights departing the UK, according to the report. The mandate is for 2% of fuel to be SAF this year and steadily rises to reach 10% by 2030 and 22% by 2040, the report added.
