Written Question
Aviation: Fuels
Wednesday 15th May 2024

Asked by: Kenny MacAskill (Alba Party - East Lothian)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if he will make an assessment of the potential merits of using (a) the (i) detritus and (ii) cut offs from timber products and (b) the waste from Whisky distilling in the manufacture of sustainable aviation fuel.

Answered by Anthony Browne - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

Through the SAF Mandate the government will reward eligible SAF with certificates to incentivise its supply. Only SAF from waste and residue will be eligible. Wastes and residues from many industries have the potential to produce SAF. SAF developers can submit new materials to be assessed by the Department to decide if eligible. Many have already been assessed, including forestry wastes and residues from the whisky production process, from which some specific materials have already been deemed eligible.
