This agreement also aims to accelerate the certification and adoption of 100% drop-in SAF which would allow existing aircraft to fly with no fossil fuel. The aviation industry is responsible for approximately 2-3% of global carbon dioxide emissions, and SAF has been identified by airlines, governments, and energy leaders, as one of the most immediate solutions to decarbonize aviation, together with the renewal of fleets by latest generation aircraft and better operations.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cSAF is the best near-term solution to reducing aviation emissions and this collaboration between LanzaJet and Airbus is an important step forward in the fight against climate change and enabling the global energy transition,\u201d said <strong>Jimmy Samartzis<\/strong>, CEO of LanzaJet. \u201cWe look forward to continuing our work with Airbus and further growing our joint impact across the globe.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>LanzaJet\u2019s proprietary ATJ technology uses low-carbon ethanol to create SAF that reduces greenhouse gas emissions by more than 70% percent compared to fossil fuels and can further decrease emissions with a suite of carbon reduction technologies.SAF produced through LanzaJet\u2019s ATJ technology is an approved drop-in fuel compatible with existing aircraft and infrastructure<strong>.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cWe are delighted to grow our partnership with LanzaJet, a leading company in the SAF production ecosystem.
