Current and future costs of e-kerosene in the United States and Europe

E-kerosene, part of the PtL product slate, is a type of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). In addition to e-kerosene, biofuels such as hydroprocessed esters and fatty acids (HEFA) produced from waste oils, also count as SAFs.

The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has proposed SAFs as a key measure to achieve GHG emission reduction in aviation (International Civil Aviation Organization, 2021). Echoing this position, several government bodies have provided support for SAFs, especially e-kerosene, in recent years.

The European Commission has recently proposed a 5% SAF mandate (as a share of aviation fuels), with a sub-target of 0.7% e-kerosene, for aviation fuel consumed in the EU, by 2030. The proposed SAF target increases to 63%, with a minimum of 28% e-kerosene by 2050
