Industry groups press EU to exclude e-HEFA from e-SAF mandate
Original: Stakeholders urge EU prevent e-HEFA from counting toward e-SAF mandate
Stakeholders are calling on the European Union to prevent e-HEFA — hydrotreated ester and fatty acid fuel made using renewable electricity — from counting toward the bloc's e-SAF (synthetic sustainable aviation fuel) blending mandate. They argue the fuel does not deliver the same climate benefits as true e-fuels, and its inclusion could dilute the mandate's purpose, according to trade publications covering the appeal.
Why now: The EU is finalising how its sustainable aviation fuel mandate counts synthetic fuels, and the decision affects which producers benefit.
