In Ireland, RTE reported that Aircraft Leasing Ireland (ALI) has announced the funding of a new research project on SAF production.
The Ibec group which represents the aircraft leasing industry made the announcement at the sector’s second Global Aviation Sustainability Day Conference at the Convention Center Dublin, the report stated.
ALI said SAF will play a crucial role in achieving the aviation industry’s goal of reaching net-zero emissions by 2050.
The four-year SAF research project announced today, which is a collaboration between Trinity College Dublin and the University of Limerick, will examine potential avenues for manufacturing SAF in Ireland.
ALI said the primary focus of the study will be to identify how Ireland can establish a sustainable and viable supply chain for SAF raw materials, while also proposing scenarios in which a substantial quantity of SAF can be produced efficiently on the island.
The study is set to begin next year and will run for four years, the report added.
