Summary and Table of Contents (prospectus )

SUMMARY

Sustainable Aviation Fuels & Renewable Diesel 2030 provides detailed case studies, updates and analysis of the key producers and developers participating in the prospective commercialization of Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) projects and related Renewable Diesel projects in the USA, Canada, Europe, Asia, and in South America.

Large-Scale Renewable Diesel/SAF Refineries Expand in Emerging Markets
One key trend of larger-scale, commercially available renewable diesel retrofits of large refineries (resulting in the first round of sustainable aviation fuels production) is now being accompanied by the emergence of smaller scale, localized, sustainable aviation refineries.

Smaller-Scale SAF Refineries, Emerging Technologies, Bio-Intermediates  
Another key trend is the fast growth and volume of projects in sustainable aviation fuels (SAF), particularly in new countries, emerging markets (Latin America, Asia, Middle East, Australia, Canada), and in technologies such as Power-To-Liquids (PTL) for producing synthetic fuels, and Fischer-Tropsch technologies for processing non-traditional feedstocks (agricultural, forestry, municipal waste, CO2 for PTL). These projects are covered in detail, via case studies, to illuminate these emerging markets, technologies, and feedstocks.

Project Announcements Expand Via Approved SAF Technology Pathways:
These major trends in up-grading feedstocks are via

a) Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids (HEFA), the first platform for Sustainable Aviation fuels (#SAF)

b) via Alcohol-To-Jet technology (ATJ),

c) cellulosic waste (via FT), and

d) carbon dioxide (via PTL variants)

The rapid proliferation of these projects in the race for commercialization is profound.  Together, these approved CORSIA pathways for future development have collectively spawned over one hundred new Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) projects for commercial development in 5 continents since our previous RD & SAF study, Vol 2. in September, 2021,

Specialty Feedstocks Emerge in Growing Numbers
This growing trend of smaller, localized plants favors low-carbon feedstocks in geographically advantaged areas that can benefit the smaller-scale RD/SAF integrated refinery. Feed stocks such as:

* wood waste (Strategic Biofuels/Velocys, Louisiana),
* crude tall oil (Fintoil, Finland),
* forestry tree oil (St1, UPM, Neste),
* crude tall oil (Fintoil, Finland),
* raw tall oil (Preem, Sweden),
* pongamia (Omega Green Paraguay),
* castor oil (Eni Italy),
* specialty carinata (multiple airlines),
* purpose grown penny cress (REG),
* cover cress (R&D initiatives),
* municipal solid waste (Fulcrum),
* Distiller’s Corn Oil (DCO with Darling and Valero JV Diamond Green Diesel, REG Geismar, and several others),
* forestry products (Louisiana Green Fuels),
* Cielo Energy in Canada (sawdust, plastics, tires, MSW, construction debris),
* circular feedstocks (palm waste and UCO at Neste, Singapore refinery), and
* smaller, non-commodity traded, feed stocks and specialty markets with higher values.

Partnerships for Progress
Another key finding in the Sustainable Aviation & Renewable Diesel study, Vol 3. is a growing number of companies participating in dedicated alliances and joint venture partnerships for (upstream) feedstocks and (downstream) offtake agreements to accelerate timelines for the commercialization of these projects.

Forecasts and Scenarios for Growth
The Sustainable Aviation Fuels (#SAF) & Renewable Diesel 2030 includes a comprehensive analysis of commercialized renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF)  producers, and provides a forward looking set of forecasts for market growth, feedstock initiatives, technology deployment for renewable diesel & SAF prospects for commercialization from the year 2023 to 2030.
