JAL Group is working towards achieving net zero emissions by 2050 to upgrade to fuel-efficient aircraft, improve flight operations, and utilise SAF (Sustainable Aviation Fuel). Now, JAL has concluded an MOU (Memorandum of Understanding) for the procurement of SAF with Raven, a renewable fuel producer from waste, and ITOCHU, Raven’s investor. SAF is planned to be supplied in California, US, from 2025.

The basic agreement with Raven and ITOCHU will lead to the achievement of the SAF utilisation targets to replace 1% of the whole fuel amount to SAF by the fiscal year 2025 and 10% by the fiscal year 2030, as stated in “JAL Group Medium-Term Management Plan Formulated the Rolling Plan 2022”. JAL will also have SAF supplied on the US West Coast, SAF made from tallow by Aemetis Inc. from the fiscal year 2024, and SAF made from inedible corn by Gevo Inc. from the fiscal year 2026. In the current situation where the supply of SAF is limited, JAL will contribute to the popularisation and market expansion of SAF and promote carbon neutrality in aviation by demonstrating the need for SAF produced from a variety of feedstocks, including used cooking oil, tallow, and biomass, as well as waste products.

JAL will continue to accelerate procurements to uplift SAF globally and advance the commercialisation, diffusion and expansion of the domestically produced SAF through the ACT FOR SKY activities.
