Webinar: The SAF Industry and the Road to FID
This webinar explored which SAF project blueprint is most likely to create investible, scalable projects capable of meeting the aviation industry’s long-term decarbonisation targets.
Hosted in partnership with Johnson Matthey on Thursday 26 February 2026, the session deep-dived into key topics including:
Global SAF market outlook & policy drivers: Demand signals from airlines, mandates, incentives, and how regulation is shaping project viability.
The economics behind bankability: CAPEX intensity, feedstock security, offtake agreements, carbon pricing, and what drives IRR for lenders and investors.
Technology pathway selection: Comparing HEFA, Alcohol-to-Jet, and FT routes, and how technology maturity impacts risk and financeability.
De-risking strategies to reach FID: Blended finance, strategic equity partners, government support mechanisms, and contract structuring.

At Johnson Matthey, our vision is for a world that’s cleaner and healthier, for todays and future generations. To cement this vision, we recently announced our commitment to be net zero by 2040. As a global leader in sustainable technologies, we apply our cutting-edge science to create solutions with our customers that make a real difference to the world around us. Through continued investment in class-leading research and development, we’re tackling the world’s big challenges into our third century and beyond.
Johnson Matthey and its partners have developed a suite of technologies to enable SAF production. Our solutions convert waste and biomass feedstocks, or electrolytic (green) hydrogen and CO2, into sustainable crudes.
Our collaboration with Virent has also advanced the development of the BioForming® S2A technology, which produces Synthesized Aromatic Kerosene (SAK), enabling expanded use of SAF, low carbon gasoline and biobased aromatic chemicals.
