Rolls-Royce announces new SAF program

In the UK, Rolls-Royce announced that business aviation customers worldwide are now able to sign up for the company’s new SAFinity program. The company noted that the program combines independently verified sustainability projects with a direct investment in SAF aiming to further support and accelerate the availability and use of SAF in the aviation industry. SAFinity is available for all business aircraft and engines from any manufacturer and is part of Rolls Royce’s ongoing ambition to play a leading role in enabling the sectors in which it operates to reach net zero carbon by 2050, the company added. Rolls-Royce and Shell Aviation are working together on this initiative. Frank Moesta, Senior Vice President Strategy & Future Programs, Rolls Royce, said: “We are excited about leaving the pilot phase of our pioneering SAFinity service and opening it up to the wider market. We have worked hard over the last months to ensure a smooth customer experience, integrating STRIPE payment and making it as easy as possible for customers to fuel their journey to net zero.” The teams from Rolls-Royce and Shell are also working on integrating Avelia, a blockchain-powered book and claim platform for SAF.
