Feedstock to Flight: Carbon Accounting During SAF Production
In part two of our examination of the SAF lifecycle analysis, we cover production concepts and the methodologies used to calculate emission reductions earlier in the chain of custody. This involves understanding a basic overview of various elements and specific approaches used to quantify the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions at different stages of the SAF production process.
Feedstock to Flight: The Importance of Lifecycle Analysis in SAF
The Lifecycle Analysis (LCA) is a comprehensive technique that estimates the environmental impact of a product, material, or service throughout its entire lifetime, including factors such as feedstock origin, electricity usage, supply chain distance, and production method, in order to determine the greenhouse gas emissions and carbon intensity of the fuel, known as "Well-to-Wake" (WTW) emissions.
The Carbon Footprint of Corporate Flight Departments: Knowing The Scopes and Ways to Reduce Them
You can’t manage what isn’t measured. Measuring emissions is the first step in developing a defensible strategy for addressing the carbon footprint of any organization, including a corporate flight department.
Contrails in 2023: Their Environmental Impact and Emerging Regulations
To be truly climate neutral and reduce the complete impact aviation, the industry must comprehensively consider its entire footprint. Contrails and non-CO2 emissions make up to 2/3rds of aviation’s warming impact.
