Qantas Airways (ASX:QAN) and its sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) coalition partners marked the "largest ever" commercial importation of SAF into Australia, with nearly 2 million liters of unblended SAF arriving this week, according to a Wednesday statement from the airline.
The company's coalition partners consist of 15 companies, including Ampol (ASX:ALD) and Sydney Airport.
The fuel, imported by Ampol from Malaysia on May 7, is currently being blended with conventional aviation fuel before testing and certification, so that it can be distributed into the Sydney airport supply chain, which will be used on flights departing from Sydney Airport over the coming weeks.
The fuel has the potential to reduce carbon emissions by about 3,400 tonnes, the airline said.
In line with its "net-zero by 2050" goal, the company is targeting 10% of its fuel use to come from SAF by 2030 and about 60% by 2050.
Qantas Airways and Ampol's shares each gained 2% in recent Wednesday trade.
