The global sustainable aviation fuel market size is expected to reach USD 15.85 billion by 2030, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc.. The market is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 57.50% from 2023 to 2030. Environmental concerns, regulatory approval, corporate sustainability initiatives, technology developments, investment and finance, partnerships and collaborations, and pricing competitiveness are the key market drivers boosting global growth.
Biofuels are made from a variety of sources, including oil seeds, corn grain, algae, forestry residues, agricultural residues, municipal solid waste, and others. The increased desire for creative solutions aids the governments in lowering carbon footprints. Biofuels provide significant environmental benefits as well as economic livelihood by reducing lifecycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
The growth of the aviation industry mainly in North American countries, including Canada and Mexico, is expected to propel demand for sustainable aviation fuel in the industry. Moreover, the availability of sustainable feedstocks for SAF production is expected to boost the market growth in the coming years.
However, airlines are unable to meet their self-imposed targets for decreasing GHG emissions alone with engine and flight upgrades; they require SAF. Fuel prices contribute a sizable portion of operating expenses. SAF, despite the fact that it is created from waste and low-cost feedstocks, necessitates extensive and costly technological methods. This is projected to hamper the market growth.
Sustainable aviation fuel offers drop-in capability which is expected to raise its demand to lower its carbon footprint. Sustainable aviation fuel has grown to prominence as a response to our times' growing environmental concerns, with commercial aviation driving demand for sustainable fuels. Various firms and government agencies are actively pioneering innovative manufacturing procedures in the global sustainable aviation fuel market.
