Last update: Dec 20, 2024
The company will supply 23,000 tons of the sustainable fuel to be used at the Los Angeles and San Francisco international airports through February 2026.
Neste and Air New Zealand have signed an agreement for the supply of 23,000 tons of Neste MY Sustainable Aviation Fuel, the airline's largest purchase of SAF to date.
The fuel will be used at Los Angeles (LAX) and San Francisco (SFO) international airports through to February 2026. The agreement follows earlier deliveries of the product to Air New Zealand at LAX in 2024 and at Auckland Airport in New Zealand in 2022.
“This supply of our Neste MY Sustainable Aviation Fuel at Los Angeles and San Francisco airports is another great step in our cooperation, and we are looking forward to continuing working together with Air New Zealand to help them reach their climate goals,” said Alexander Kueper, Vice President Renewable Aviation Business at Neste.
The aviation fuel will be blended with conventional jet fuel before use to meet the jet fuel specifications and delivered to the airline via the fuel supply systems at both US airports.
As one of the world’s leading producers of SAF and renewable diesel, Neste aims to help its customers to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions by at least 20 million tons annually by 2030.
