Core Viewpoint - The sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) industry in China is rapidly developing through pilot policies, standard system improvements, and collaborative industrial ecosystems [2][3]. Group 1: Industry Development - China National Aviation Fuel (CNAF) initiated its SAF refueling plan in 2022, with the first phase (September-December 2024) involving 12 flights from four airports, with an estimated refueling volume of approximately 0.4 million tons [2]. - The second phase (March 19 - June 30, 2025) will see all domestic flights at these airports using a 1% SAF blend, with an expected volume of 0.8 million tons [2]. - The third phase, starting in July 2025, will expand to eight airports nationwide, with an anticipated refueling volume of about 3 million tons [2]. Group 2: Project Statistics - As of March 31, 2025, there are 64 SAF projects in China, with a total potential capacity of 9.94 million tons per year [3]. - The potential capacity is primarily concentrated in Guangdong, Jiangsu, Henan, Sichuan, and Shandong provinces, driven by raw material availability, industrial foundation, policy support, and market demand [3]. Group 3: Challenges and Opportunities - Currently, only 10% of planned projects have been completed, with a total capacity of 0.996 million tons per year, due to the absence of a definitive carbon neutrality goal for the aviation industry and a lack of mandatory SAF usage requirements [6]. - The global demand for SAF is mainly in the EU, US, and UK, and the lack of dedicated export codes for SAF presents uncertainties for international trade [6]. - In April 2023, the Ministry of Commerce approved the export of bio-aviation fuel from Lianyungang, marking a significant step in opening international export channels for China's SAF industry, which is expected to enhance export volumes by 2025 [6].
国际航协:政策缺陷致可持续航空燃料生产面临风险

Group 1 - The International Air Transport Association (IATA) announced that sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production is expected to reach 2 million tons (25 billion liters) by 2025, accounting for 0.7% of total airline fuel consumption [2] - IATA's Director General Willie Walsh highlighted that while the doubling of SAF production to 2 million tons is encouraging, it will still lead to an increase in global aviation fuel costs by $4.4 billion [2] - The current SAF market faces significant regional imbalances and cost issues, with most SAF directed towards Europe due to mandatory quota policies effective from January 1, 2025, which have not met expectations [2] Group 2 - The cost of purchasing SAF in Europe has doubled due to compliance fees, with an example showing that meeting the 1 million tons SAF quota would cost $1.2 billion, plus an additional $1.7 billion in compliance fees, making SAF five times more expensive than traditional aviation fuel [2] - IATA is taking steps to promote the global SAF market by launching a SAF registry managed by the Civil Aviation Decarbonization Organization (CADO) to create a transparent tracking system for SAF purchases and emissions reductions [3] - IATA urges governments to eliminate the disadvantages faced by renewable energy producers compared to large oil companies and suggests reallocating up to $1 trillion in fossil fuel subsidies annually to invigorate SAF production [3]

Core Viewpoint - The article emphasizes the necessity and complexity of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) as a core means for decarbonizing the aviation industry, highlighting the progress in both global and Chinese markets, and the critical role of technology, cost, and policy coordination [3]. Key Data - As of March 2025, only 15% of the built SAF projects are operational compared to the planned capacity, indicating that most projects are still in the planning stage [4]. - The price of SAF in 2024 is expected to decrease significantly compared to 2023, yet it remains approximately three times higher than traditional aviation fuel [5]. - China's aviation fuel consumption in 2024 is projected to exceed 2.19 million tons, surpassing pre-pandemic levels, with an optimistic forecast of 2.19 million tons of SAF demand by 2030 [6]. Industry Certification - By March 2025, there are four SAF production companies in China that have received airworthiness certification from the Civil Aviation Administration, 11 companies with ISCC/RSB CORSIA certification, and 12 companies with ISCC-EU certification [7]. Market Development - The commercial development of SAF in China is relatively late, with only 10% of the planned total capacity currently built [10]. - The HEFA process currently has the lowest production costs, while the PtL process shows the greatest potential for cost reduction [12]. SAF Technology and Market Analysis - The report includes a comprehensive analysis of SAF production processes, including HEFA, FT, AtJ, MtJ, and PtL, as well as the current state of the global SAF market, including blending policies and airline commitments [14][15]. - It also covers the development status of SAF in various regions, including the EU, UK, and US, alongside China's policy, demand, and project analysis [15]. Future Outlook - The article suggests that understanding the economic viability of SAF and its market dynamics is crucial for stakeholders in the aviation industry [16].
