1. Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) Study Session
Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) Study Session April 27, 2021 1 What is Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF)? Drop-in fuel made from sustainable sources that can be blended with fossil jet fuel Produced from waste oils from a biological origin, agriculture or forest residues, municipal waste, etc. SAF sustainability standards set by International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) 2 Volumes & Availability Still only one production facility (World Energy) in the US More volume imported via Neste Facility in Nevada nearing completion Facility in Oregon under construction Image courtesy: Fulcrum Bioenergy website Worldwide volumes ~ 5 million gal 3 Impact of California's Low Carbon Fuel Standard Sustainable aviation fuel can generate credits under the LCFS as of Jan 1, 2019 Credit value is $1.25-$1.50 per gallon Since 2019, more SAF volume at LAX and SFO Incentives remain higher for on-road fuels (e.g., renewable diesel), so fuel producers focus on highest revenue-generating fuels 4 Worldwide SAF production capacity forecast oo & = Worldnergy NESTE #8EVO (muy Rodeo g Rrainout Fulcrum Singapore & Lemme (66) ELLY s #1, Sierra n NESTE 7 Rottyam ToTAaL v oRYo0 "- Gohe Delfzijl Sunshine 9 New Orleans Grardpuits 33 5 SkyNRG ate oo " = 3%gevo REDROCK Gothenburg o Silsbee ae Lanzajet> Fulcrum ~70 3 Demo quant's 6 Freedom Pines #2, a 10 ary, IN Lanzajet 5 TT > energy 3 International y Mede Paramount 2 locations locations 9 ; 150 24 90 ~59+M ~72+M ~746+M ~830+M ~990 - 1336 M 1B+ 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 a. * Not comprehensive; CAAFI estimates (based on technology used & public reports) where production slates are not specified CAAF 30 September 2020 9 5 Strategic Plan Review: Progress toward 10% SAF Goal 6 Commission SAF Goal (Dec 2017) By 2028, 10 percent of jet fuel available at Sea-Tac will be produced locally from sustainable sources Equivalent to 75 million gallons of "neat" SAF By 2035, 25 percent By 2050, 50 percent + 7 SAF Strategic Plan (2018) Four Key Strategies 1. Airline-Airport Cooperative Model (aka "the MOU Group") 2. Support local, state, federal policy to incentivize SAF use and in-state production 3. Obtain FAA approval to use airport funds/grants for SAF cobenefits or infrastructure 4. Enhance awareness of, and support for SAF use 8 SAF Strategic Plan (2018) 9 Airline-Airport Cooperative Model - Update Developed a SAF-emission-reduction equivalent strategy with airlines Evaluated ability to meet local/regional fuel goal - WSU Study 10 GHG Reduction Goal 80,000 (10% SAF for LTO) 73,000 MTCO,e | ERSESwES oe essingOptions 70,000 60,000 Reduce Emissions from Curbside Passenger Drop-off and Pick-up Trips 16,000 MTCOe (MTCO,e) 50,000 Bptimize Cargo Activity 3,100 MTCOze Benefit Reduction 40,000 GHG 30,000 Annual [oT ORTEY LameEL Tg 34,000 MTCOe 11 SAF Policy Update Powerful advocate for passing LCFS in WA Bill passed House and out of Senate Ways/Means Committee [future unclear]. Continue to work with WA Commerce to identify legislation that promotes SAF production and use New opportunities at federal level with Biden Administration and focus on clean energy infrastructure 12 Meeting the 10% SAF Goal Requires near-parity or better than incentives offered in California and on-road fuels Airlines at SEA also operate in California and will favor CA prices if trying to meet a SAF target Requires dedicated production facility being brought online quickly Incentives to speed permitting Incentives to bring down capital and operational costs 13 Developments Since 2018 Private business aviation interests Corporate "SAFc" (corporate SAF- seat on commercial jet) concept European nations setting SAF percentage targets 14
Limitations of Translatable Documents
PDF files are created with text and images are placed at an exact position on a page of a fixed size.
Web pages are fluid in nature, and the exact positioning of PDF text creates presentation problems.
PDFs that are full page graphics, or scanned pages are generally unable to be made accessible, In these cases, viewing whatever plain text could be extracted is the only alternative.
