- The private sector is voluntarily leading the way to a cleaner future.
“American Airlines plans to reduce its emissions in-large by using low-carbon fuel―namely SAF―in increasing volumes over time. The airline has been taking delivery of SAF from Neste for more than a year and has committed to using 9 million gallons in total through 2023. Additionally, American has agreed to terms to purchase up to 10 million gallons of carbon neutral SAF produced by Prometheus Fuels.”
