Context
With the adoption of CORSIA and growing legislation around GHG emissions reduction, the aviation sector will need a significant amount of low-carbon fuels over the next 10 years.
SAF+ Consortium’s goal is to bring to the market a drop-in, low-carbon alternative to fossil-based jet fuel with 80% lower lifecycle GHG emissions.
About us
Leveraging a highly innovative technology and approach, the SAF+ Consortium is bringing together for the first time in Canada a coalition of prominent actors spanning the entire aviation value chain with the objective of providing Canadians with a sustainable commercial solution for low carbon flying.
SAF+ Consortium Inc. partners include CCG, Air Transat, Aéroports de Montréal, Parachem, École Polytechnique de Montréal, CIRAIG, CEPROCQ and Valorisation Carbone Québec Project.
