Neste Supplying Emirates with SAF at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport; Changi Next


(09/04/24)
 
Emirates’ fuel agreement with Neste came into
effect this month at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport (AMS), with over 2
million gallons of blended SAF scheduled to be supplied into the
airport’s fuelling system over the course of 2024.

Emirates’ partnership with Neste represents one of
the largest volumes of SAF that the airline has purchased to date.

Once fully supplied into AMS’ fuelling system, the
blended SAF will have been comprised of over 700,000 gallons of
neat SAF.

“We are proud to support Emirates in their
sustainability journey,” said Alexander Kueper, Vice President
Renewable Aviation, Neste. “SAF is an available solution for
reducing greenhouse gas emissions from air travel and it is
exciting that Emirates have started using our Neste MY Sustainable
Aviation Fuel at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol. It is also a great
example of how we are working together with partners to accelerate
SAF usage and are looking forward to the next steps of our
cooperation.”

Emirates’ first flight powered by SAF blended with
jet fuel took place in 2017 from Chicago. The airline currently
operates flights from Paris, Lyon and Oslo with SAF.

In October of last year, Emirates, with the
support of partners, also integrated SAF into Dubai Airport
fuelling systems, allocating the SAF to a number of flights,
including a flight to Sydney.

Earlier this year, the airline became the first
international carrier to join the Solent Cluster in the UK, an
initiative focused on low carbon investments with the potential to
create a Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) plant that can produce up
to 200,000 tonnes (200 kt) per year if operational by 2032.

Emirates also actively contributes to a number of
industry and UAE government working groups and is in continuous
discussion with a range of stakeholders to help scale the
production and supply of SAF.

The airline, along with the UAE GCAA has actively
played a part in developing the UAE’s power-to-liquid (PtL) fuels
roadmap, driven by the UAE Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure
and the World Economic Forum, in addition to contributing to the
UAE’s National Sustainable Aviation Fuel Roadmap which aims to
transform the UAE into a regional hub for alternative aviation
fuels with the ambition to produce 700 million litres of SAF by
2030.

Joining entities across aviation, government,
regulatory, academic, fuel production and the manufacturer value
chain, Emirates is a founding participant of the UAE research
consortium Air-CRAFT, focused on developing, producing, and
scaling sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) technologies for the
industry.

“Collaborating with committed partners like Neste
is one of the practical steps we are taking to reduce our
emissions, and it’s an all-important milestone in our own
sustainability journey as an airline,” said Adel Al Redha, Deputy
President and Chief Operations Officer, Emirates. “Strong
partnerships like this, especially at major air transport hubs
such as Amsterdam, lay the foundation for how we can work with
partners and airports to increase access to and availability of
SAF across our network.”

The Dubai-based airline is also working with Neste
to supply SAF into the fuelling systems at Singapore Changi
Airport (SIN) in the next few months.
