Clean fuel producer Raven SR has reached memoranda of understanding (MOU) with Japan Airlines (JAL) and All Nippon Airways (ANA) to supply sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) for key global routes.

For both carriers, Raven SR will initially deliver 50,000 tonnes of SAF in 2025 with annual incremental increases over ten years, leading to 200,000 tonnes being delivered in 2034.

Raven SR CEO Matt Murdock said: “We are grateful our strategic partner Itochu introduced us to JAL to initiate this landmark agreement for long-term SAF supplies that will foster growth for Raven SR on a global basis and help JAL with its carbon reduction commitments.

“We expect that our agreement with JAL to supply SAF in strategic markets globally will enable buying local fuel produced from local waste. We see growing interest in such efficiency and circularity in renewable fuel distribution for aviation and other transportation sectors.”

The SAF will be produced by converting different types of waste, including green waste, municipal solid waste, organic waste, and methane from municipal solid waste.

It will be manufactured at facilities planned for major global markets outside Japan to meet the needs of the two airlines’ specific international routes.
