GREATER MSP-led coalition partners with the State of Minnesota to launch the fi rst largescale SAF hub in the Midwest. Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is a safe, fully certifi ed jet fuel that can be used in existing aircraft today. Produced from many sources, including used cooking oil, municipal waste and renewable feedstocks, SAF can reduce the lifecycle carbon emissions of fl ying by more than 80 percent—making SAF the best decarbonization lever the aviation industry has to reach net zero. Yet current SAF global production is inadequate to power the world’s commercial airlines for even a single day. The Minnesota SAF Hub is about to change that. |
