Analysis of SAF allowances (FEETS) – 2024-price update

By / / Publications

February 2025, the European Commission adopted a new support mechanism on ‘SAF allowances’: used to bridge the price gap for the use of alternative fuels to accelerate the roll out of SAF.
We reviewed this mechanism in order to assess its expected impact on supporting the development of SAF market. We conclude that the policy design would require additional policy instruments to support the broader development of the SAF market.

Current POME-based biofuels in EU fall within current production potential 

By / / Publications

According to studio Gear Up’s numerical analysis, the current volume of POME-biofuels deployed in the EU are in the range of current production volumes of POME residues. We advise to keep a close look on the future volumes of POME-based biofuels, given the upper limits of production. Strengthening the information position of renewable fuels supply chains with more frequent auditing and historical data of POME-oil production are needed.

SAF allowances may not be the best instrument to ramp up SAF production

By / / Superseded blog

Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) are renewable fuels that replace fossil based kerosine in aircrafts and are seen as an important option to mitigate climate emissions in the aviation sector. Generally, these alternative fuels are more expensive than their fossil counterpart, kerosene. In order to support the uptake of SAF, the European Commission has introduced several policy instruments.

Carbon Footprint Analysis and Tool Development

By / / Uncategorised

Renewable fuels and materials do have a lower well-to-wheel/Wake/Wing / well-to-product carbon footprint. We can provide clear insight in the exact greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions savings per functional unit compared to the fossil references by carrying out detailed and thorough carbon footprint assessments, following regulation approved methods. When needed we
