Sustainable Aviation Fuels: EU countries call for more ambitious targets

A total of seven EU countries are appealing to the European Commission to allow more ambitious national targets in their climate protection plans for aviation. From the countries’ point of view, there is more room for maneuver concerning the use of so-called Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), according to a letter from the countries to the responsible EU Commissioners Adina Vălean (Transport) and Frans Timmermans (Green Deal). To this end, the member states must be allowed to go beyond EU minimum standards.
