Atlantic Aviation and Avfuel are joining forces to provide a significant gesture of support for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) at the upcoming United Nations Mountain Partnership Global Meeting in Aspen, Colorado. The event, scheduled for September 26-29, marks a pivotal moment in the global aviation industry’s transition towards a more sustainable future. Atlantic Aviation’s FBO at Aspen-Pitkin County Airport will offer a substantial amount of Neste MY SAF, a testament to the commitment of both companies to reducing the carbon footprint of air travel.
This initiative aligns with the UN’s declaration of 2022 as the International Year of Sustainable Mountain Development, underscoring the importance of sustainable practices in aviation. The provision of SAF at Aspen-Pitkin County Airport is a significant step towards reducing the environmental impact of aviation, with the use of Neste MY SAF offering a reduction of up to 80 percent in greenhouse gas emissions compared to fossil jet fuel.
The fuel, made from sustainably sourced renewable waste and residue raw materials, is a crucial component in the industry’s efforts to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. The collaboration between Atlantic Aviation and Avfuel highlights the critical role of SAF in shaping a more sustainable future for aviation. By providing this fuel at Aspen-Pitkin County Airport, the companies are not only supporting the UN’s initiatives but also paving the way for a greener aviation industry that prioritizes environmental stewardship and sustainability.
The use of SAF at Aspen-Pitkin County Airport is a tangible example of the industry’s commitment to reducing its carbon footprint and promoting sustainable practices. As the aviation sector continues to evolve and adapt to environmental challenges, initiatives like this one will play a vital role in shaping a more sustainable future for generations to come.
