In Hong Kong, The Standard reported that Hong Kong group Cathay expects the Hong Kong government to offer a “holistic plan” to facilitate the usage of sustainable jet fuels in the city. The group, which operates Hong Kong’s flagship carrier Cathay Pacific Airways, is striving to boost the consumption proportion of sustainability aviation fuels from the near-term 0.03% to 10% in less than six years – the mid-term goal for achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050, according to the report. Cathay general manager of sustainability Grace Cheung Sing-yan said the aviation industry really needs a holistic plan – which goes beyond subsidies and involves solutions for logistics, supply chains and more – to reach its climate goal, the report added. Hong Kong is conducting a consultancy study on such fuels and projects to complete it in this quarter. The government will make action plans based on the study.
