The Aviation Industry’s Sustainable Aviation Fuel Analytics Platform and Marketplace
SAFxCHANGE is pleased to announce the version 1.0 release of our Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) Industry Dashboard and Newsletter. Our goal is to provide Aviation and Fuel industry professionals with an easy-to-use, interactive and engaging tool that enables the user to view the progress on SAF adoption from multiple perspectives and help inform and guide the strategy of SAF supply chain stakeholders as they produce and use SAF. We look forward to receiving feedback from all our users in order to make the data and dashboard even more accurate and functional over time.
Connect, Communicate, Collaborate and Transact with Sustainable Aviation Fuel Stakeholders
SAFxCHANGE is a user friendly online marketplace (under development) with secure, industry standard, collaboration, communications and workflow tools that enable Aviation Industry stakeholders to locate, negotiate, and purchase sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).
SAFxCHANGE seeks to empower airlines, fuel producers, fuel suppliers, and related supply chain stakeholders with information and connections that enable them to reduce their existing carbon footprint in meaningful and measurable ways while enabling them to better serve the the needs of eco-conscious passengers.
SAFxCHANGE’s vision is to provide transparent pricing, SAF availability information, almost real-time market data, and a variety of tools that enable aviation industry stakeholders to achieve their carbon footprint reduction goals.
SAFxCHANGE is committed to fostering sustainable aviation by connecting key players in the industry, promoting the adoption of SAF, and accelerating the shift away from fossil fuels. Join us today and be part of the movement towards a greener tomorrow!
The SAFxCHANGE Platform
SAFxCHANGE.COM is a Software-As-A-Service (SaaS) marketplace, and an information integration and transaction workflow management system that enables aviation industry stakeholders to:
- Have visibility into the value chain via proprietary databases of supply chain participants;
- Access a machine learning based production and offtake database, updated daily based on new suppliers coming online and new offtake agreements announced
- Buy and Sell SAF efficiently and cost effectively
- Collect, synthesize, and report environmental attribution information
- Collaborate and share knowledge with supply chain partners
By leveraging these capabilities in concert we will shape a cleaner and more responsible future for air travel.
Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF)
Why SAF
The aviation industry, responsible for approximately 2% of global CO2 emissions, must adopt sustain-able aviation fuels (SAFs) as air travel demand grows and regulatory targets such as ICAO's carbon neutral growth and emissions reduction goals approach. SAFs can reduce lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80% compared to conventional jet fuel, and thus help mitigate climate change, minimize competition for resources with food production, and improve local air quality. Embracing SAFs can also bring financial benefits due to the increasing prevalence of carbon pricing and emissions trading systems, stimulate economic growth and job creation in the green energy sector, and enhance an airline's brand reputation and competitiveness by demonstrating a commitment to sustainability and meeting the demands of environmentally conscious consumers.
SAF Procurement
Airlines can procure SAFs by partnering with SAF producers, establishing off-take agreements, collaborating with industry stakeholders, participating in industry initiatives, advocating for supportive policies, developing internal procure-ment strategies, educating customers, and monitoring and reporting progress. By engaging in these activities, airlines can contribute to the grow-th of the SAF market, secure a consistent supply of SAF, and reduce their carbon footprint while promoting a more sustainable aviation industry.
SAF Legislative Support
The increasing environmental concerns associated with aviation have driven governments around the world to implement legislative and regulatory measures aimed at promoting the adoption and use of SAFs. Measures range from mandates and incentives for blending SAFs with conventional jet fuel, to funding for research and development of innovative SAF technologies. By fostering collaboration between public and private stakeholders, these global efforts seek to accelerate the transition to a more sustainable aviation sector while reducing the industry's carbon footprint and mitigating its impact on climate change
