Renewable Fuels

Renewable fuels create a sustainable link between agriculture and energy, enabling low-carbon growth while strengthening rural communities.

Aviation is one of the hardest sectors to decarbonize. Government, industries and consumers are pushing for cleaner energy solutions. Currently, SAF is the only
scalable, drop-in solution to cut emissions from flying.

FUELING THE FUTURE

SAF demand is projected to grow from less than 1% of total aviation fuel use today to 10% or more.

Europe has emerged as a global leader in SAF consumption and demand, driven by ambitious targets and binding mandates. With SAF mandates extending through 2050 and new requirements in the UK and Brazil, current production falls short of meeting projected demand as early as 2030.

Advancing the biofuels industry

There is worldwide agreement on SAF’s essential role in economic growth and decarbonization.

Azure prioritizes local and sustainable feedstocks to produce SAF and other low-carbon fuels. This reduces our upstream emissions and strengthens our connection to the communities we operate in.

The International Air Transport Association’s (IATA) strategy towards net zero by 2050 includes SAF contributing to 65% of the emissions reductions.

Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF)

key drivers of SAF growth

SAF is a low-carbon alternative to conventional jet fuel. Produced from renewable feedstocks like agricultural feedstocks, cooking oil, animal fats; SAF can reduce lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80% compared to fossil-based aviation fuels.

It is compatible with existing aircraft engines and airport infrastructure, making it a key component in decarbonizing the aviation industry.

Renewable Diesel

California's diesel market is dominated by renewable diesel, making up 70% distillate fuel consumed in California for transportation.

Renewable Diesel (RD) is a drop-in fuel made entirely from renewable sources. It meets the same specifications as fossil diesel but is made from 100% renewable sources. Renewable diesel can be used in all diesel engines without blending, performs exceptionally well in cold weather and offers significant reductions in carbon emissions and particulate matter.

Renewable naphtha and Renewable propane are produced as a byproduct of the hydroprocessed esters and fatty acids (HEFA) process, which converts renewable feedstocks into fuels like SAF and RD.

Renewable Naphtha

Renewable Naphtha is a low-carbon liquid fuel made from renewable sources. It can directly replace fossil naphtha in gasoline blending, plastics, and chemical productions. It performs the same but with fewer emissions.

Renewable Propane

Renewable Propane is a sustainable, low-carbon fuel that can power today’s vehicles, homes and industries. It is a drop-in replacement to conventional propane, produced from renewable feedstocks and offers the same performance but with a much smaller carbon footprint.
