With severe reductions in aviation traffic due to the Covid-19 pandemic, all sectors of the industry have felt an effect, among them fuel providers such as Air bp. The UK-based company has been very active in the push for the adoption of sustainable aviation fuels (SAF), with its parent BP Group committing back in February to becoming a net-zero carbon emitter by 2050 or sooner. That goal aligns with the aviation industry’s greater aspirations, adopted in 2009, to achieve carbon-neutral growth from 2020, and in the long-term halving net CO2 emissions from the sector by 2050 compares with 2005 levels.
