A White House Briefing Lays Out Goals For The Future
The General Aviation Manufacturers Association shows their support of the Biden Administration’s steps to expand the development, use and production of sustainable aviation fuels.
A Fact Sheet, released by the Biden Administration, shared its planned actions to reinforce the future of sustainable fuels in aviation. The briefing states that goals include producing three billion gallons of sustainable fuel, reducing aviation emissions 20% by 2030, and growing good-paying, union jobs.
“We commend the Biden Administration for its commitment to boost the production, distribution and uptake of sustainable aviation fuels. For years, the general and business aviation community has recognized that the increased use of sustainable aviation fuels will play a key role in reducing aviation’s CO2 emissions and complements our continued innovative advancements in aircraft technologies,” said Pete Bunce, GAMA President and CEO.
“It will be important for industry and government to work together on the elements of the administration’s Sustainable Aviation Fuel Grand Challenge, which aims to increase the production of sustainable aviation fuels to three billion gallons per year by 2030,” he continued.
“GAMA, along with other industry stakeholders, has been working with the U.S. Congress on similar legislative solutions and we look forward to future progress on these initiatives. We also are eager to work with other policymakers and regulators to further advance sustainable aviation fuels production and use worldwide.”
GAMA President and CEO, Pete Bunce, participated in a White House Roundtable on Sustainable Aviation, where he highlighted the commitment and accomplishments general and business aviation has made toward sustainable aviation fuels and emphasized the technological progress manufacturers are making to enhance environmental sustainability.
