Today Ryanair - Europe's Favourite Airline extended its research partnership with Trinity to 2030, making a further €2.5 million donation (€4 million total) to fund work taking place at the Ryanair Sustainable Aviation Research Centre. With this extended funding, the multi-disciplinary research team at Trinity will continue to focus on Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and zero carbon aircraft propulsion systems as well as expanding the scope of the research to examine aviation’s non-CO2 emissions. Over the past three years, the Ryanair Sustainable Aviation Research Centre has made significant research developments in the following core areas: > examining the sustainability of different SAF types > reducing the cost to certify new SAF candidates > evaluating the operating impact of zero carbon aircraft propulsion and noise mapping Read more about this news at: https://lnkd.in/e5x5kDYD

Hey everyone! At iFuel, we’re working hard to make aviation more sustainable. Our focus is on Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) — a cleaner alternative to traditional jet fuel. We’re partnering with key suppliers to ensure a reliable supply of SAF, helping airlines reduce their carbon footprint and meet their sustainability targets. For us, it’s all about being part of the solution and leading the way towards a greener future for the entire industry. For me, it’s not just about providing fuel — it’s about being part of a bigger change, helping the entire aviation industry transition to greener, more eco-friendly solutions. And we’re doing this by building strong partnerships and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with digital innovation. Global Growth & Innovation Our next big step? Expanding iFuel’s presence across the globe. We’re forming diverse partnerships worldwide to ensure we deliver top-notch services on a global scale. As we grow, we’re focused on digital transformation — improving our fueling platform and leveraging AI and blockchain to streamline operations and offer better, more transparent services. It’s About People, Too But let’s not forget, it’s also about our people. At iFuel, we’ve worked hard to create an environment where everyone feels valued and can bring their unique perspectives to the table. I truly believe that diversity drives innovation, and when everyone is empowered, we can achieve amazing things together. Building Relationships for Sustainable Growth One thing I’ve learned over the years is that sustainable growth comes from building lasting relationships. At iFuel, we don’t just aim for short-term wins. We focus on understanding the needs of our partners and clients, offering customized solutions that help them achieve their goals, too. That’s how we build trust, and it’s how we plan to grow without compromising the quality of what we offer. The future is all about sustainability, innovation, and collaboration, and I’m thrilled to be leading iFuel through these exciting times. Let’s continue pushing forward together!

We are excited to start a collaboration with Blue Spirit Aero to jointly drive the acceleration of aviation's decarbonization journey. Based in France, Blue Spirit Aero is developing a family of innovative hydrogen-electric aircraft with low noise signature and reduced operational costs aimed at the RAM/AAM market. These benefits are attained through the hydrogen-electric powertrain and the distributed electric propulsion (DEP) architecture. Olivier Savin, Blue Spirit Aero CEO: “The renewed growth of air travel after the pandemic proves that people still want aviation to be a part of their way of life. Simultaneously, the need to make aviation more sustainable is widely recognized as a major societal obligation for the years to come. That's why Blue Spirit Aero is delighted to partner with Skyfinity to help decarbonize aviation. Directly involving air travellers in this global challenge clearly is an accelerator to the successful emergence of sustainable solutions such as our Dragonfly hydrogen aircraft!” Maurice Boon, Skyfinity Chairman: “Blue Spirit Aero is pushing the boundary of hydrogen propulsion for the general aviation market and providing a stepping stone for larger scale hydrogen aviation. We look forward to supporting them achieve their mission.” Developing net-zero aviation technologies requires a series of investments that can be enabled by leisure and business travellers through Skyfinity’s non-profit foundation.

Take flight towards sustainability with Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF)! Produced from renewable sources like used cooking oil and animal fat waste, SAF aims to shrink the aviation industry's carbon footprint.✈️ The beauty of SAF? It seamlessly replaces conventional jet fuel, fitting into existing aircraft engines without a hitch. As demand soars, so does interest in this eco-friendly alternative.🌍 In 2023, United Airlines aimed high, tripling their SAF use. Meanwhile, Finnair made history with a 750-ton SAF order! Investors are also fueling the future, with SAF startups raising a whopping $1.05B. #SustainableAviation #GreenSkyRevolution (Source: Exploding Topics) #TrendingTopicTuesday #ProvidentOakFinancial

☘ Sustainability for breakfast again ☕ This time together with customers all over Europe. Discussing how we jointly can accelerate a more sustainable travelling by air. With electric aircrafts around the corner and hydrogen next in line. Will sustainable aviation fuel, SAF, still be relevant? YES, as it is the solution shorter term and for sure longer term on longer distances. Read more at bottom of this post. 👇 By adding sustainable aviation fuel, SAF, to your flight/flights – you become a change maker! While reducing the emissions related to your travels, you also push for a more sustainable development of the aviation industry. The guest of honour, Hans Christensen from #Haarup shared a very inspiring story on how he has transformed the whole of his business, re-investing 20 % of the profit into a more sustainable development. 💪 How great is that?!   Do I need to say he is one of our SAF-partners?

Imagine a world where retired aeroplanes are transformed into valuable resources for a greener future instead of rusting away in junkyards. This is the stuff of Karina Cady’s dreams. As CEO of Nandina REM, a trailblazer in the aeroplane recycling industry, Cady sees a great deal of untapped potential in these retired giants of the sky. Through innovative technology, Nandina REM is able to recover high-quality materials like carbon fibre and aluminium from these aircraft, which, unbeknowst to many, still boast the same high-performance qualities as the virgin materials used to build new aeroplanes. This wondrous circularity will be the future of sustainable transportation far beyond just aviation. Cady’s goal for Nandina REM? To cut emissions by a staggering one gigatonne by 2030. “The road ahead is undoubtedly challenging, but the potential rewards are immeasurable,” says Cady, “by giving retired aeroplanes a second life, we are not just decarbonising the skies but building a more sustainable future for generations to come.” Read her full story below. #ThoughtLeadership #Entrepreneurship #Aviation
