Stakeholder Views of the Factors Affecting the Commercialization of Aviation Biofuels in Europe

Abstract: Biofuels are being advocated by certain sections of the commercial aviation industry as a means of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and lowering fossil-fuel dependency within the confines of current aircraft technology and infrastructure. Rising oil prices, increasingly stringent environmental legislation, and continued growth in air travel demand have stimulated the development of renewable lower-carbon fuel alternatives that can act as a substitute for conventional Jet A1 kerosene. However, although biofuel… Show more

“…Governments need to develop new aviation industry environmental policies, acknowledge industrial trends, and understand industrial technologies and the information obtained by research and development institutions. To achieve the sustainable development of the green aviation industry, advanced experiences and lessons from existing related environmental policies (e.g., the noise tax in the Netherlands, the "bubble" policy in the United States, and the EU ETS) should be learned (Shaw, 2001;Girvin, 2009;Anger, 2010;Sgouridis et al, 2011;Gegg et al, 2015). Moreover, the effects of the market economy and the whole industry should be coordinated to promote the green aviation industry sustainable development.…”

“…Development of a supportive policy environment is likely to be critical to the successful development and deployment of RJF technologies. 42,[126][127][128][129] initial product testing might require as little as 0.5 liter, extensive engine testing toward the end of the certifi cation process can require up to 650 tonnes (225 00 US gallons) of fuel. 125 Ongoing research ¶ for the RENJET project highlights the diffi culties this fuel requirement presents for RJF developers (unpublished material).…”

“…However, the large-scale uptake of RJF has been impeded by the high cost differential between RJF and fossil jet fuel, limited number of commercialized conversion technologies, highly competitive and international character of the aviation industry, and current lack of adequate (policy) incentives (de Jong et al, 2015;Hamelinck et al, 2012;Kousoulidou & Lonza, 2016; Mawhood, Gazis, de Jong, Hoefnagels, & Slade, 2016). The future role of RJF depends on contextual factors, of which the most important ones comprise the regulatory context, the availability of (low-cost) sustainable feedstocks, the commercialization of conversion technologies, and future oil price development (de Jong, Hoefnagels, van Stralen, et al, 2017;Gegg, Ison, & Budd, 2015;IRENA, 2017;Mawhood et al, 2016;Wang et al, 2016).…”
