Sustainable aviation fuels: Potential opportunities for developing an efficient supply chain

An analysis of sustainable aviation fuels raw materials and processes

The sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) sector is rapidly growing, and so are the opportunities for market participants, including biofuels producers, investors and feedstock suppliers. This webinar focuses on:

  • SAF raw materials and technological processes, such as Gasification and Alcohol-to-Jet, used to transform feedstocks into sustainable fuels;
  • the principles set by the Round Table on Sustainable Raw Materials for SAF production and how the latest criteria will influence what feedstocks are preferred;
  • potential opportunities for sustainable aviation fuel capacity and production presented by agriculture and forest residues and developments in technology to reduce cost and generate a more efficient supply chain.

The EU-Mercosur trade agreement, set to take provisional effect in 2026, aims to reduce trade barriers between the two regions. However, the deal faces significant opposition from environmental groups and EU agricultural sectors. For the pulp and paper industry, the effects will be phased in over several years, with an analysis by Cepi showing that tariff reductions will be gradual, eventually benefiting about 85% of EU pulp exports and 90% of paper and board exports.
Crop-based biodiesel became cheaper than fossil diesel in the EU for the first time on Thursday April 2, when premiums for core crop grades FAME 0 (fatty acid methyl ester 0) and RME (rapeseed methyl ester) over ICE gasoil fell into negative territory.
The biofuels market is transitioning from rapid growth to a focus on margin optimization, carbon intensity differentiation, and regulatory compliance, driven by low-carbon policies in the US and EU that are reshaping feedstock demand, trade flows, and pricing dynamics.
Soybean oil prices rose to 67.3 cents, driven by Middle East disruptions and strong biofuel margins. Fastmarkets predicts continued price strength amid geopolitical risks.
