Today, the Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) Coalition’s Executive Director, Alison Graab, issued the following statement in response to the House Ways and Means Committee’s inclusion of a 45Z extension in its budget reconciliation markup.
“Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) is a key solution for strengthening U.S. energy dominance, driving investment in rural economies and positioning the United States as a global leader in SAF production.
The SAF Coalition is grateful to the Ways & Means Committee for supporting the extension of the Clean Fuel Production Credit (45Z) through 2031. This critical legislation provides long-term certainty for SAF producers, incentivizes private sector investment, and builds out a robust domestic supply chain. The bill ensures that 45Z delivers direct benefits to U.S. farmers and rural economies.
We urge Congress to pass this extension to reinforce our energy dominance and unleash the full economic potential of America’s heartland.”
