Neste will supply sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) to Hotelplan Group, a Swiss travel group, to expand SAF usage across the organisation. Hotelplan is purchasing SAF worth 300,000 Swiss Francs (approx. $331,522) via Neste Impact, a solution designed to reduce the carbon footprint of air travel.
Flights by Hotelplan’s customers account for 87% of its greenhouse gas emissions. By securing larger volumes of SAF, Hotelplan aims to offer its customers a more sustainable travel option.
Laura Meyer, CEO of Hotelplan Group, said, ” SAF is currently only available in limited quantities and is more expensive than conventional jet fuel. By purchasing it for the entire Hotelplan Group, we can secure larger volumes of SAF and make it available to our customers. This will also allow us to support the ongoing development and scaling of this innovative technology.”
Kimmo Salminen, Vice President of Market Development & Strategy at Neste’s Renewable Products business, added, “Neste Impact provides Hotelplan a solution ensuring emissions are credibly reduced, which is important considering the ever-increasing reporting requirements and public demand for transparency.”
