Air Canada and Airbus have announced a joint initiative to establish a Sustainability Co-Investment Platform, aiming to invest up to approximately C$13.7 million (US$10 million) to support a commercial-scale Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) industry in Canada. The partnership seeks to accelerate a Canadian SAF project toward a Final Investment Decision (FID) and stimulate domestic production. This investment is intended to serve as a catalyst for the broader Canadian SAF ecosystem, contingent on a supportive public policy framework.

Strategic Investment and Advocacy

The two companies intend to drive this investment while continuing collaboration with government partners to establish structural frameworks for SAF production. Their joint advocacy includes working with the Canadian Sustainable Aviation Fuel Coalition (C-SAF) to align industry initiatives with public policy mechanisms. The goal is to champion domestic SAF production and price competitiveness, ensuring renewable fuels are available for the Canadian aerospace industry.

Corporate Travel and SAF Demand

Complementing the foundational investment, the initiative introduces a vehicle for corporate partners to stimulate domestic SAF demand through Air Canada’s Leave Less Travel Program. Airbus has signed a long-term, 5-year Leave Less Travel Program Agreement as part of this partnership. For its first allocation, Airbus will purchase SAF environmental attributes associated with over 60,000 litres of SAF. Air Canada will track Airbus’ greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with their corporate travel and remove verified SAF environmental attributes on the company's behalf.

Economic Potential

Developing a robust domestic SAF ecosystem could trigger significant economic growth, according to a macroeconomic study by Airbus and ICF. The study highlights that scaling domestic SAF to meet 40% of Canada’s aviation fuel demand by 2040 could yield substantial economic benefits.

The partnership aims to support these multi-billion-dollar economic returns while advancing the development of a domestic SAF ecosystem. Both companies support the aviation aspirational climate ambition set by IATA, ATAG, and ICAO to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, with SAF identified as a critical component of this pathway.
