Pittsburgh International Airport (PIT) are leading the way when it comes to SAF production, introducing an on-site storage facility.
SkyClean US Energy Inc. and Pittsburgh International Airport (PIT) are taking a significant step in reducing carbon emissions for the global aviation industry by introducing new SAF facilities.
SkyClean is currently in the process of signing a land lease agreement, in order to build a sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production facility at the airport. Once complete, PIT will be the first major airport in the U.S. to feature SAF production on-site.
The proposed facility would be among the biggest SAF production facilities in the U.S. currently, capable of producing 25 million gallons of unblended SAF annually with future production possibly expanding up to 75 million gallons. This would be enough to supply all the fuelling needs at PIT and other airports in the Midwest and Northeast.
