Alaska Airlines and SkyNRG Americas have today (14th April) signed a deal committing to increase investment in sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) as well as incorporating green hydrogen to cut carbon emissions.
The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) will see the two companies initially focus on the development of dedicated SAF production facilities to supply Western US Airports.
These facilities will use commercially available technologies that enable the use of municipal solid waste and other waste-based inputs as feedstocks, as well as incorporating green hydrogen and renewable energy for minimising carbon intensity.
