• Offtake Agreements
• Airline Partnerships

“Washington’s leadership complements the broader ecosystem of organizations such as the Commercial Aviation Alternative Fuels Initiative, which brings together airlines, manufacturers, energy producers and government agencies to advance alternative jet fuel deployment, and Canada’s C-SAF council, which is working to accelerate the commercial deployment of SAF across the Canadian aviation sector,” Nelson added. “Together, these initiatives demonstrate the global momentum behind SAF and make the Pacific Northwest an ideal location to convene the industry and drive the next phase of commercialization.”
