In the UK, Pilot reported that Oxford Airport has received its first deliveries of sustainable aviation fuel, which will initially be offered in both 30% and 10% ratios to complement the airport’s existing jet fuel provision. James Dillon-Godfray, Head of Business Development at London Oxford Airport, said: “We’ve wanted to sell SAF for quite some time, indeed we are a bit late to the game, but we were approaching the renewal stage with our fuel supply partner on a new five-year contract last year and concluded it would be easier to wait.” “We think offering SAF… is one part of the sustainability jigsaw. It’s not a silver bullet, but it’s a step forward,” added Dillon-Godfrey, highlighting the variety of new companies involved in other areas of aviation hosted at Oxford. “Collectively, all those different technologies combined will get us closer to having more sustainable aviation from the smallest to largest aircraft types”.
