Monterey Fuel Company gets award from Avfuel

In the UK, Business Airport International reported that Avfuel awarded its Early Adopter Award to the Monterey Fuel Company in recognition of its dedication to sustainable solutions, specifically sustainable aviation fuel. “The Monterey Fuel Company has been a huge champion for the adoption of sustainable aviation fuel,” said Keith Sawyer, Avfuel’s manager of alternative fuels. “It was the first company to work with Avfuel to provide an FBO with consistent supply of SAF back in March 2021. Its FBOs, Del Monte Aviation (KMRY) and Monterey Jet Center (KMRY), have continued to be strong advocates for the use of SAF at Monterey Regional Airport ever since and have transitioned multiple high-volume customers to the sustainable option. We felt their eagerness to lead SAF efforts from the forefront of the initiative was worthy of recognition.” Matthew Wright, vice president of the Monterey Fuel Company, said, “Our team is honored to receive this recognition, proud to support our eco-conscious community, and thankful to Avfuel for enabling us to be at the leading edge of sustainability by providing SAF at the highest blend ratio available. Through this partnership, we’re able to accomplish real progress toward aviation’s CO2 reduction goals by offering flight departments and operators a pathway for decreasing their environmental impact.”
