Neste begins SAF supply to Emirates at Amsterdam's Schiphol airport

Finnish refiner and renewable fuels producer Neste Oyj (HEL:NESTE) has started supplying its sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) to Dubai’s airline Emirates at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol as part of their partnership.

Over 6,000 tonnes (2 million gallons) of blended SAF will be supplied to the Schiphol airport's refuelling system through 2024. This partnership represents one of the largest volumes of SAF that Emirates has procured so far, Neste said.

Once the supply system is fully stocked, more than 2,000 tonnes of neat SAF will have been supplied as part of the blended SAF supply. Neste is also working with Emirates to supply SAF to Singapore Changi Airport in the coming months.

Neste produces SAF from 100% renewable waste and residue raw materials, such as used cooking oil and animal fat waste, and then blends it with conventional jet fuel, the company says.
