Exciting news from Pratt & Whitney , MTU Aero Engines and #IAE which successfully tested the V2500 engine with 100% sustainable aviation fuel (#SAF) supplied by Neste.   Sustainable aviation fuel reduces greenhouse gas emissions (#GHG) by up to 80% in neat form, compared to using fossil jet fuel. SAF can currently be used blended up to 50% with conventional jet fuel. Once blended it is a drop-in solution, meaning it can be used in existing engines and fuel infrastructure without any modifications.    Tests like this on a V2500 engine which powers a significant fleet of aircraft, demonstrate that SAF can be used in existing engines even in 100% neat form. They also add to the growing body of research to developing future specifications for 100% SAF.   #Neste #NesteMYSAF #Aviation
