Market Segmentation

By Type

In 2024, biofuel-based SAF dominated the market due to commercially mature pathways such as HEFA (Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids) and Alcohol-to-Jet technologies. These fuels are already certified and widely used in scheduled commercial flights. Biofuel SAF accounted for the largest share as it leverages abundant biomass, waste oils, and agricultural residues.

Hydrogen fuel is an emerging high-growth segment, positioned as a zero-emission solution for long-term aviation sustainability. While hydrogen-powered aircraft require new platforms and infrastructure, investment and R&D efforts are increasing, especially in Japan, Europe, and the U.S. as part of hydrogen economy strategies.

Power-to-Liquid (PtL) fuels, also known as synthetic or e-fuels, represent a next-generation segment that uses captured CO₂ and green hydrogen to produce drop-in jet fuel. PtL fuels are gaining attention for their ability to decarbonize long-haul flights and reduce lifecycle emissions by over 90%, though production costs remain high today.

Gas-to-Liquid (GTL) fuels are commercially established and compatible with existing aircraft, offering a transitional option with cleaner combustion. GTL SAF adoption is growing where natural gas resources and carbon capture technologies are available, particularly in regions focused on synthetic fuel pathways.

By Aircraft Type

Fixed wing aircraft accounted for the majority of SAF demand in 2024, driven by commercial airlines, cargo carriers, and military jets. Long-haul and high-fuel-consumption aircraft have the highest decarbonization urgency, making SAF pivotal for international aviation.

Rotary wing aircraft, including helicopters and air ambulances, represent a smaller but growing segment. SAF adoption in rotary platforms is supported by search-and-rescue operations, offshore services, and defense programs prioritizing low-emission missions. As rotorcraft OEMs certify SAF compatibility, usage is expected to increase steadily.

By Platform

In 2024, commercial aviation dominated the SAF market, driven by large-scale airline commitments, increasing passenger volumes, and international sustainability mandates. Commercial carriers are integrating SAF blend targets in fuel procurement strategies, supported by partnerships with fuel producers.

Military aviation is emerging as a major growth driver as defense agencies invest in SAF to improve energy security and reduce operational emissions. Military contracts often support early-stage SAF commercialization and scale-up of domestic production.

Business aviation is adopting SAF as a premium, ESG-driven solution to reduce executive travel emissions. Leading private jet operators and FBOs are offering SAF at major hubs to attract sustainability-conscious clients.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) represent a niche but high-potential segment. As long-range cargo drones and surveillance UAVs scale, SAF can serve as a low-carbon alternative for missions where battery-electric power is insufficient.

Regional Insights: United States & Japan

United States

The U.S. is the global leader in SAF deployment and production capacity. With strong airline commitments, government incentives, and rapid infrastructure investment, the U.S. SAF market is expected to hold the largest revenue share through 2030. The government has set aggressive production targets, while tax incentives under recent legislation have significantly increased the profitability of SAF projects.

In the last three months, U.S. airlines expanded multi-year offtake agreements with fuel producers, and new SAF production facilities were announced in multiple states. Major aerospace OEMs are testing 100% SAF capabilities to fast-track industry-wide adoption. Several mergers and partnerships between energy companies and SAF technology developers were finalized to secure feedstock supply and accelerate commercialization.

Japan

Japan is rapidly positioning itself as a major SAF adopter in Asia. The government has set clear targets to replace a significant share of jet fuel with SAF by 2030, driving local production and import partnerships. Japan's aviation and energy companies are collaborating with global SAF producers to develop domestic refining capabilities based on biomass, waste, and synthetic fuel technologies.

In the past three months, Japanese airlines completed successful SAF-powered international flights and signed new procurement agreements. Construction of regional SAF facilities and research partnerships with global technology companies were announced. Japan's focus on hydrogen and synthetic fuels is fueling innovation and long-term competitiveness in the Asia-Pacific SAF landscape.
