In Finland, Neste reported that it will provide up to 1 million gallons of Neste MY SAF to United Airlines for use at Chicago O’Hare International Airport (ORD) in the U.S. through the end of 2024. The first supply of Neste MY SAF blended with conventional jet fuel will arrive at Chicago O’Hare Airport via pipeline in August from Neste’s newly-commissioned SAF terminal capacity in Houston, which expands the availability of Neste’s SAF to airlines that operate at airports east of the Rocky Mountains all the way to the East Coast. “We are excited to expand our partnership with United and see our SAF being used at one of the major airports in the U.S. It underlines our commitment to supporting the U.S. aviation industry in its efforts to decarbonize and shows the important role that policy supports like the federal SAF 40B credit and the Illinois’ SAF Purchase Credit play in accelerating SAF usage. We continue supporting United’s roadmap to achieve its emission goals and look forward to expanding our cooperation at other airports across the globe,” said Alexander Kueper, Vice President, Renewable Aviation Business at Neste.
