Proposes the UK sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) mandate. The SAF mandate will:
- create demand for SAF
- achieve greenhouse gas emission savings
- provide price support for SAF supply
We are seeking views on the:
- overarching targets to be set for 2030 and beyond
- targets to supply power to liquid fuels and a cap on hydrotreated esters and fatty acids
- potential buy-out price, which determines the maximum incentive for supplying SAF
- eligible fuels and sustainability criteria
- design of the scheme including:
- who the obligation applies to
- how certificates will be issued, traded and used for compliance, and how the obligation will be discharged
- administrator and enforcement of the scheme
- interactions with other domestic and international policy makers
This builds on the commitment to introduce a SAF mandate in 2025 requiring at least 10% of jet fuel to be made from sustainable feedstocks by 2030 released in 2022.
