An investment in reducing emissions, starting today

Using SAF made from renewable raw materials makes a real impact on the climate and on your company’s carbon footprint. Voluntary purchases beyond mandates reduce overall aviation emissions while powering the industry forward. Every drop and investment helps scale up the technologies critical for reaching net-zero emissions in aviation by 2050.

A third-party verified emissions reduction report

Neste Impact is aligned with the Science Based Target initiative’s (SBTi) Aviation Guidance and its reporting is third-party verified. This enables you to credibly claim your scope 3 emissions reductions against your sustainability targets. You’ll receive a third-party verified report and you can ensure further transparency and traceability of your claims through the ISCC Credit Transfer System.

1. Let’s define your targets

When you partner with us, we’ll help transform your sustainability goals into concrete aviation emission reduction targets. We'll calculate how much SAF you need, within which timeframe and at what investment.

2. Book SAF for your company

Once you book your SAF, we deliver it to our partner airlines to replace fossil fuel. Even if your business travelers aren’t literally flying on SAF, your company can still claim the emissions reductions achieved through the SAF purchased.

3. Receive a third-party verified report

After the SAF has been used, you'll get a detailed third-party verified report ensuring full traceability and chain of custody. This report contains SAF volumes supplied, delivery locations, raw materials used, and emissions reduction achieved.

Frequently asked questions

What are the benefits of purchasing SAF to reduce my company’s emissions?

The most sustainable way to reduce aviation emissions would be to reduce flying. Since that’s not always possible, the second best option is to fly with Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). SAF is a real in-sector emission reduction in the aviation sector with a direct impact. Purchasing SAF as an emission reduction “allows you to go the extra mile” in multiple ways, as it goes beyond what is, or will be, required by regulations and mandates. The report SAF Certificate from us you will receive after the SAF has been delivered and consumed is verified by an independent third party and can be used in your company’s sustainability reporting to support credible claims.

How can I calculate my company’s aviation emissions?

For calculating your company’s aviation emissions, we recommend the International Air Transport Association’s (IATA) industry-leading practice for Passenger CO2 Standard Methodology. For air freight, we recommend to follow the methodology published by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Carbon Emissions Calculator Methodology Air Freighter (Version 1, September 2023) and the IATA recommended practice 1678 on Cargo CO2 Emissions Measurement Methodology. Some private platforms can support you to estimate your business travel and air freight emissions based on their own database (e.g. EcoTransit, Pledge, myClimate, Atmosfair, etc).

How do I reduce my company’s aviation emissions by purchasing SAF?

Compared to fossil jet fuel, SAF can reduce GHG emissions by up to 80% over the fuel lifecycle. As part of the SAF purchase, you will receive GHG emission reduction reporting documents audited by a third party. You can use this to support your carbon emission reduction reporting and to help you meet your sustainability goals. Practical guidelines for using the customer delivery report come as part of your SAF purchase.

Will my flight fly with SAF after my purchase?

After you have made your SAF purchase, Neste delivers the SAF to one of the partnering airlines, who will then fuel their planes and fly with that SAF. You can purchase SAF from anywhere in the world, but planes with Neste SAF will only be fueled at a few designated airports at the moment to avoid unnecessary transportation of SAF. While the plane you board may not fly with SAF, you will be supplied with an SAF delivery report once your SAF has been used by one of our partner airlines. This way, you are aware that the fuel has been delivered to an airline, emission reductions have been achieved, and you know that you have made a significant step toward a more sustainable aviation industry.

How can I trust Neste Impact, the calculations, and the reporting I receive?

At Neste, we ensure the transparency and credibility of Neste Impact by following the latest standards and frameworks for SAF, such as SBTIs aviation sector guidance. Emission reductions achieved are verified by a third party to ensure:

A clear chain of custody - specific purchased SAF volumes are directly linked to you and partner airlines.
Proof of sustainability - based on certification SAF standards
Pure additional volumes - offering additional GHG emission reduction to parties involved beyond regulatory schemes
Exclusive ownership of environmental attributes - no selling forward of the fuel/bio-attributes of emissions
Accurate scope accounting and book-keeping - SAF is not double-counted across reporting or customers. This is done in line with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol

How do I ensure the emissions my SAF purchase reduces aren’t double counted and claimed?

Our SAF delivery and transaction process is audited by a third party from end to end to verify that the integrity of our service is, to ensure only one party claims the SAF in your purchase.

The audit scope includes verification that:

The SAF has been certified according to an EU voluntary scheme up until the point of delivery to Neste’s distribution terminal location, and Neste has removed the sustainability attributes.
The airline has self-declared its SAF consumption, and SAF is not considered the volume under any renewable fuel mandate or obligation.
The airline has reported Scope 1 emissions and that its Scope 3 emissions are dedicated to one end-customer only.
The auditor confirms that there has been a clear chain of custody on the transfer of fuel and the corresponding emission reduction claims between different parties involved in this transaction.

The certification Neste uses is EU-compliant ISCC (International Sustainability and Carbon Certification), which registers, tracks, and traces all SAF credit transactions. ISCC provides customers with a credit retirement declaration displaying details regarding the SAF delivery and emission reduction, which can be used for sustainability reporting.

Why is SAF expensive? Why and how does Neste Impact add value for my business?

Is there a minimum volume of SAF required for a purchase?

There is no minimum volume requirement for your SAF purchase. We are scaling up our capacity as we speak, and run a world class refinery in Singapore, to be able to serve everyone in the future. Fill out our emission calculator to see how we can best help you reduce your aviation emissions. The collective efforts undertaken today will contribute significantly to the credible reduction of aviation-related emissions.

How does emission reduction with SAF differ from offsetting?

By purchasing SAF, you can reduce the emissions created by aviation directly. Carbon offsetting broadly refers to a reduction in GHG emissions, usually through land restoration or the planting of trees, that is used to compensate for emissions that occur elsewhere. In this approach, the emissions created by flying, however, remain the same. By using SAF, you can reduce aviation-related carbon emissions directly within the aviation sector and make a real change toward your sustainability targets.

What are the future raw materials of SAF?

To meet the rising demand for sustainable aviation fuel, the world needs to significantly increase production and diversify feedstock options. Watch our recent webinar to explore the future of sustainable aviation feedstocks, including the potential of power-to-X technologies and algae. Jukka Räsänen, Head of Business and Strategy, Renewable Hydrogen and Power-to-X at Neste, shared his views.

How to build trust for more sustainable aviation?

As end-users become more committed to reducing their climate impact, stakeholders in SAF must have reliable tools to verify sustainability throughout the supply chain. Tune in to hear from ISCC’s Senior System Manager Thomas Bock about effective strategies to ensure transparency and reduce aviation emissions.
