With the Summer Olympic Games commencing this weekend in Paris, Signature Aviation has introduced a limited supply of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) at its Paris Le Bourget (LFPB) Fixed Base Operator (FBO). The fuel, a 20% SAF blend provided by Shell, will achieve a 16% reduction in life cycle greenhouse gas emissions compared to standard fossil-based fuel.
“As travelers from all over the world gather in Paris for the games, it presents an important opportunity to shine a light on the future of aviation through sustainability,” said Sophie Lesnoff, Signature’s area director for mainland Europe. “We’re excited to bring SAF to Signature [LFPB] and, in turn, give our guests from all over the world the chance to actively participate in the most meaningful way to make an impact on carbon emissions reductions.”
In May, Avfuel announced it would be establishing permanent supplies of SAF at three Paris-area airports, including Le Bourget, in time for the start of the games.
