Avfuel Corp. and FBO Atlantic Aviation have extended their supply agreement for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) to include all four of Atlantic’s Colorado locations.
The agreement, announced on Nov. 22, calls for a “continuous inventory” of Neste MY Sustainable Aviation Fuel at Atlantic’s Aspen (KASE), Telluride/Montrose (KMTJ), Steamboat Springs/Hayden (KHDN) and Aspen/Rifle (KRIL) FBO locations. Avfuel and Atlantic Aviation started supplying Neste’s sustainable fuel blend at KASE in early 2021.
“We are committed to enabling our customers to achieve their sustainability goals economically through the strategic expansion of SAF,” said Brian Corbett, Atlantic Aviation chief commercial and sustainability officer. “We view offering alternatives to fossil fuels as the most viable and impactful near-term step to achieving a greener future and are committed to supporting customer sustainability goals accordingly.”
Neste MY SAF has a blend ratio of 30/70 SAF to petroleum-based jet fuel, to date one of the highest average blend ratios available to business aviation, the companies say. Each truckload of the sustainable fuel reduces carbon emissions by 19 metric tons across its lifecycle, a reduction equivalent to the amount of carbon sequestered by 22.5 acres of U.S. forests per year, according to Neste.
