ESG Focus Areas

  • Climate Change

Environmental Achievements

  • 16.5 million gallons of SAF produced in 2024 (as of August), surpassing 2023's total production of 15 million gallons.
  • Early evidence suggests certain SAF blends reduce particulate matter emissions and contrail formation.

Social Achievements

  • Potential for over 70,000 jobs across the SAF value chain by 2030.
  • In 2030, 45% of announced SAF production (with announced locations) is located in disadvantaged communities.

Governance Achievements

Climate Goals & Targets

Long-term Goals:
  • 35 billion gallons of SAF per year domestically by 2050 (100% of projected U.S. jet fuel demand).
Medium-term Goals:
  • Not disclosed
Short-term Goals:
  • 3 billion gallons of domestic SAF production per year by 2030 (10% of jet fuel demand).

Environmental Challenges

  • SAF costs 2-10 times more than fossil jet fuel.
  • Uncertain demand due to insufficient mechanisms to value SAF's environmental benefits.
  • Short-term federal production tax credits (expiring by 2027).
  • Limited biofeedstock availability.
  • Inconsistency in foreign SAF mandates.
Mitigation Strategies
  • Federal and state incentives to lower production costs.
  • Exploration of innovative offtake agreements (e.g., three-way agreements, price collars).
  • Investment in upstream supply chains and alternative feedstocks.
  • Standardization of SAF's environmental attributes.
  • Harmonization of international SAF policies.

Supply Chain Management

Supplier Audits: Not disclosed

Responsible Procurement
  • Emphasis on securing low-cost, readily available feedstocks.

Climate-Related Risks & Opportunities

Physical Risks

Transition Risks
  • Policy uncertainty, feedstock scarcity
Opportunities
