SUSTAINABILITY


money at the problem, up to US$1.75 per gallon in SAF tax credits. And it’s working, sort of. Domestic SAF production is ramping up, but still represents less than one percent of total jet fuel consumption. The US advantage is scale, when you


move the most freight, even small efficiency gains save massive carbon. And momentum is building: new SAF production capacity is expected to more than double between 2024 and 2025. The challenge? That same scale makes change incredibly complex.


Latin America: Abundant resources, persistent obstacles Latin America has extraordinary biodiversity, bold environmental commitments, and a biofuels industry (especially Brazil’s) that could scale SAF from sugarcane and local feedstocks. So what’s the holdup? Money, infrastructure, and economic volatility. Avianca Cargo and LATAM Cargo have


launched SAF test flights and carbon-offset programmes.

Shippers, from fashion to pharma, demand greener supply chains. Investors scrutinise ESG commitments. Regulators tighten emissions targets. The carriers that crack the sustainability code first will lock in long-term partnerships with brands desperate to clean up their supply chains. Meanwhile, airports that can market themselves as low-carbon hubs are already seeing premium customers willing to pay for verifiable green credentials. Sustainability more than compliance; it’s competitive advantage.


What’s Next The Americas will advance on parallel tracks. North America will lean on policy and innovation to push SAF adoption. Latin America could turn its biofuel advantage into opportunity, when the financing flood gates open up. Collaboration will be key, because
