Fueling the Future of Flight: Why SAF, Why Now, Why Massachusetts?
This panel explores the critical role of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) in decarbonizing aviation and why scaling it remains one of the industry’s biggest challenges. It will ground the audience in SAF fundamentals, while unpacking the key policy and market barriers that must be addressed to accelerate adoption. Panelists will examine the current jet fuel supply chain, emerging SAF production technologies, and the most pressing bottlenecks to scale. The discussion will also highlight how Massachusetts can leverage its innovation ecosystem to position itself as a leader in SAF. Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of the near-term opportunities—and the practical steps needed over the next three years to move SAF from momentum to scale.
