Recommendation 15

There is significant demand and potential for sustainable aviation fuels in the aviation sector: they are the most plausible option for significant decarbonisation of aviation in the short and medium terms. We welcome the SAF mandate in the Jet Zero strategy, but consider that further measures are needed to stimulate the progress required. The Government must introduce a Contracts for Difference model to stimulate uptake of SAF. The Government should also examine whether such a model could be used to incentivise the uptake of other sustainable aviation technologies such as hydrogen. (Paragraph 112) Rail
