Alison Graab, Executive Director of the SAF Coalition, highlighted the opportunity for the new Administration to boost U.S. energy dominance through supportive Sustainable Aviation Fuel policies. She said America is well-positioned to be a global leader in SAF, leveraging America’s agricultural abundance, bioenergy expertise, and entrepreneurial spirit to create an alternative jet fuel. “Extending and improving tax credits for SAF production is essential,” Graab says. “Investors and energy producers need long-term policy certainty to commit to building facilities and scaling operations.” It’s also important to embrace all potential feedstocks as American innovators have developed ways to produce SAF from diverse sources, including crops, waste, biomass, captured gases, and cooking oil. Graab would also like to see red tape get cut as streamlining permitting processes and providing clear regulatory guidance can accelerate SAF production. “The Administration talks of ‘energy dominance,’ and SAF is a natural extension of that vision,” Graab adds.
