Sustainable Aviation Fuel
Chevron’s sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) blendstock that's leading the way in emissions solutions for the aviation industry.
Opportunity for Lower Carbon Solutions
The journey to a lower carbon intensity future is real and, as many companies establish lower carbon targets in response to societal demands, they need tangible solutions right now. With the air travel expected to double by 20371, SAF is another promising way to lower carbon emissions.
Sustainable aviation fuel is similar to conventional jet fuel, but instead of utilizing fossil fuels, it is produced from lower carbon intensity feedstocks. Some typical renewable feedstocks are used cooking oil, distillers corn oil and animal fats.
Renewable Options
As a pioneer of the bio-based diesel industry, with Chevron's refinery in Geismar, Louisiana, being the first facility in the U.S. to produce sustainable aviation fuel, Chevron is taking the next step to provide reductions in direct aircraft fossil carbon emissions on a lifecycle basis2.
In 2022, Chevron introduced Sustainable Aviation Fuel.
Performance Beyond Expectations
Part of Chevron's complete Lower Carbon Fuel Solutions product line is a high-quality sustainable aviation fuel blendstock that meets specifications and reduces lifecycle carbon emissions compared to petroleum jet fuel.
