The World Bank Open Knowledge Repository has released a mobility and transport technical paper titled Fueling Africa’s Flight: A Techno-Economic Assessment of Sustainable Aviation Fuels in Africa.
The study explores the potential for producing sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) in four African countries: Ethiopia, Kenya, Nigeria and South Africa. Rather than serving as a full feasibility analysis or detailed project proposal, it applies a techno-economic approach to demonstrate Africa’s potential through country-based examples.
The analysis highlights strategies for cost reduction and risk management, with a focus on the higher selling prices of SAF in Africa, driven by elevated risk premiums and green premiums.
