Access to RSB’s SAF Platform is a benefit of RSB membership.
Why this matters
To achieve the aviation sector’s decarbonisation goals, SAF production must rapidly scale up to deliver the volumes and pricing needed for broad adoption. As with other renewable fuels, scaling SAF production is achievable, but it requires alignment across sustainability standards, credible claims, and technical innovation.
Global interest in SAF is increasing, with governments, businesses, and stakeholders exploring pathways for sustainable feedstock use, production technologies, and credible sustainability claims. Ensuring SAF is produced and used sustainably — with robust social and environmental safeguards — is vital for the success of this transition.
Activities
The RSB SAF Platform serves as a network for structured dialogue and knowledge-sharing across sustainability, certification, technical, and market topics related to SAF. It unlocks the substantial expertise of RSB’s members and offers practical tools and guidance for implementing sustainable solutions.
Current activities include:
- Assessing global developments in SAF production, sustainability criteria, and market mechanisms.
- Evaluating sustainability impacts and best practices for feedstock sourcing and processing technologies.
- Developing guidance and communication strategies to support credible SAF claims and transparency.
- Sharing insights on evolving regulatory frameworks, certification requirements, and market expectations.
- Facilitating learning and capacity-building for sustainable SAF deployment.
