Microsoft shifts to SAF made from used cooking oil for air freight
In Ukraine, UkrAgroConsult reported that EVA Air, AIT Worldwide Logistics and Microsoft are launching a two-year program to use sustainable aviation fuel produced from used cooking oil.
In the first year, the project is expected to deliver around 15,000 tons of CO2 emissions reductions across Microsoft’s supply chain.
The SAF will be produced by Taiwan’s Formosa Petrochemical from used cooking oil. Both the feedstock and production process are certified under the ISCC system.
EVA Air will provide Microsoft with SAF environmental attributes linked to flights departing Taiwan. This will allow the technology company to account for Scope 3 emissions reductions associated with air freight transportation of equipment for its cloud infrastructure, according to the report.
EVA Air has been using sustainable aviation fuel on flights departing Asia, Europe and North America since 2025 and has also signed a five-year SAF procurement agreement with Formosa Petrochemical, the report added.
