Neste and World Fuel Services have signed a five-year agreement to expand the supply of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) across more than 100 airports in the UK and Europe.
The deal extends an existing partnership between the two companies and is intended to support compliance with regulatory frameworks including the ReFuelEU Aviation Regulation and the UK SAF mandate. SAF supplied by Neste will be distributed through World Fuel’s European network to commercial, business and general aviation customers.
The agreement combines World Fuel’s aviation fuel distribution and infrastructure network with Neste’s SAF production capacity, including output from its Rotterdam refinery in the Netherlands, which currently has the capacity to produce up to 500,000 tonnes of SAF annually.
“By combining our extensive European network with Neste’s growing SAF production, we are strengthening the supply foundation our customers rely on as regulatory requirements accelerate across the region. This agreement enhances our ability to deliver consistent, scalable access to SAF where it’s needed most,” said Duncan Storey, Senior Vice President, EMEA, at World Fuel.
Carl Nyberg, Senior Vice President, Commercial, Renewable Products at Neste, said: “We are excited to extend the relationship with World Fuel Services. These kinds of collaborations are crucial to supporting the aviation industry in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and meeting SAF mandates, such as the ReFuelEU Aviation Regulation. As Neste is scaling its SAF production capability from 1.5 to 2.2 million tons per annum in 2027, leveraging World Fuel’s extensive network of airports in Europe will increase the availability and flexibility of SAF supply for airlines.”
