Just the facts
Distribution points
There are 161,768 gas stations in the
USA alone, but only 1,679 airports control
95% of the world’s passengers.
Around 10% of fuel
Total transport fuel use in 2008 was over 2 billion tonnes. Of that,
commercial aviation used 215 million tonnes of Jet A-1.
2% of emissions
Last year, aviation emitted 649 million
tonnes of CO2 from a global total of 34 billion
tonnes.
Largest operating cost
Last year, airlines spent $140 billion on jet fuel, or 30% of operating costs.
In 2003, it was 14%.

Next steps
• Continued technology development
– Feedstocks (crop-based, waste-based and algae)
– Processes (e.g. alcohol-to-jet and pyrolysis)
• Commercialisation
– Bringing biojet to parity with using conventional Jet A-1
• Sustainability
– Ensuring our supply of biofuel is truly sustainable

Governments need to help:
Support supply chain collaboration
Establish global sustainability criteria
De-risk investments
Provide incentives
Understand local opportunities
Foster research

Remaining questions……?
• How do we ensure a level playing field for aviation biofuels compared to other transport sectors?
• Can we crack the distribution challenges?• Are we on the right track with individual airlines
doing their own thing here and there?• Do we need a bigger, bolder strategy?• Do we need to engage more stakeholders?
