Ryanair seals Italy SAF supply deal
Budget carrier Ryanair inked a new deal with Enilive, for the long-term supply of Enilive sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).
They signed a Letter of Intent which calls for providing SAF to Ryanair at several airports across Italy.
The agreement with Enilive would enable Ryanair to access to up to 100,000 tonnes (33m gallons) of sustainable aviation fuel between 2025 and 2030.
This is the equivalent of 20,000 flights from Milan to Dublin.
At its biorefineries in Italy, Enilive processes mainly waste feedstock, such as used cooking oil, animal fats and agro-food industry residues, to produce Eni Biojet.
This is a SAF that contains 100% biogenic component and is suitable to be blended with conventional jet fuel by up to 50%.
Ryanair’s Director of Sustainability, Thomas Fowler, said: “Partnering with an industry leader like Eni will help Ryanair achieve our ambitious goal of using 12.5% SAF by 2030.”
“Eni is a key supplier in our largest market, Italy, and their success in producing SAF will play a significant role.”
