There is significant demand and potential for sustainable aviation fuels in the aviation sector: they are the most plausible option for significant decarbonisation of aviation in the short and medium terms. We welcome the SAF mandate in the Jet Zero strategy, but consider that further measures are needed to stimulate the progress required. The Government must introduce a Contracts for Difference model to stimulate uptake of SAF. The Government should also examine whether such a model could be used to incentivise the uptake of other sustainable aviation technologies such as hydrogen. (Paragraph 112) Rail Type: recommendation | Number: 15 | Response status: not_addressed Government response: The Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) mandate (to be introduced from 2025) is the cornerstone of the Government’s SAF strategy, and not only contains an important incentive mechanism to drive demand for SAF but will also provide price support that should stimulate a domestic SAF market.
