SAF One Energy, a sustainable aviation fuel developer, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Airbus to promote the adoption of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) in the aviation industry.

The partnership aims to support decarbonisation goals by increasing SAF utilisation and promoting SAF adoption in the UAE and globally through advocacy initiatives.

"We are pleased to partner with Airbus in our efforts to advance the adoption of sustainable aviation fuel," said Mounir Kuzbari, Director and Co-Founder at SAF One. "Through this collaboration, we will jointly engage with airlines to promote SAF adoption as well as support in promoting the use of SAF produced by SAF One's multiple facilities. By combining our respective airline networks and relationships, this coordinated approach to market development will help address the growing demand for SAF."

"Partnering with SAF One supports our commitment to advancing SAF production to help meet the growing industry demand. Strengthening the SAF ecosystem requires collaboration across the industry, and partnerships such as this play a vital role in scaling production and accelerating availability," said Alexandros Kosmas, Head of International Cooperation Middle East & Africa at Airbus.
