SAF use to take flight in California

Airlines for America and the California Air Resources Board announced an agreement to accelerate the use of sustainable aviation fuel, or SAF, within California. The initiative aims to make 200 million gallons of SAF available by 2035, meeting approximately 40% of the state’s intrastate air travel demand. 

As a producer of SAF, Phillips 66 said it is proud to support collaborations like this and that the company looks forward to contributing to the initiative. 

Collaborations between public and private sectors can drive the innovation needed in hard-to-decarbonize industries like aviation. Progress is also made possible by California’s climate programs, particularly the Low Carbon Fuel Standard, which incentivizes the development of renewable fuels and technologies. 

Phillips 66’s Rodeo Renewable Energy Complex in the San Francisco Bay area demonstrates the company’s role in supporting California’s climate goals by producing renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel. 

The company is dedicated to playing a meaningful role in the energy transition, Phillips 66 said, and to providing customers with lower-carbon solutions.
