The manifesto, Taking Flight: A policy route to achieving jet zero, calls on the government to launch a Contracts for Difference (CfD) scheme to grow the UK’s sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) industry.
The CEN said a price support mechanism was needed to compete with tax breaks in the US and the EU’s sustainable aviation fuel mandate to win investment for British factories. The UK’s SAF industry is only on track to meet half of the government’s target for at least 10% of aviation fuel to be sustainable by 2030.
