Domestic Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) was supplied to a passenger flight for the first time.
The first supply was to Japan Airlines (JAL) flight JL891 from Osaka/Kansai to Shanghai/Pudong on May 1. It was the first time SAF was supplied to a passenger flight at Kansai International Airport. JGC Holdings and Kansai Airports collaborated for this effort.
In 2021, the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization adopted the construction of a domestic waste cooking oil-based SAF manufacturing supply chain as a project and worked on large-scale production. Large-scale manufacturing facilities were completed in December 2024, and domestic manufacturing and supply of domestic SAF began in April this year.
The supplied SAF uses waste cooking oil from households and stores as its raw material. SAFFAIRE SKY ENERGY, jointly established by Cosmo Oil, JGC Holdings, and Revo International, mass-produced it at Cosmo Oil’s Sakai Refinery. Going forward, it will be supplied to airlines through the Cosmo Energy Group.
