Environmental Challenges
- Decarbonising aviation is challenging, especially in a geographically large country like Australia that relies heavily on air travel.
- High cost of SAF (3-6 times more expensive than conventional jet fuel)
- Underdeveloped SAF supply chain in Australia.
- Limited application of zero-emission aircraft technology in the Australian market due to flight characteristics.
Mitigation Strategies
- Developing a roadmap to reach net-zero emissions by 2050.
- Exploring various abatement options, including SAF, fleet modernization, operational efficiencies, and carbon offsets.
- Recommendations for government policies to support SAF production, uptake, and bridge the cost gap.
- Collaboration with stakeholders to develop and implement necessary infrastructure and investment for new technologies.
