Industry: Energy Transition

ADI has published nine editions of our semi-monthly newsletter, SAF Tracker, so far in 2026 covering trends across SAF demand, supply, pricing, technology, feedstocks, investments, and regulations. Stepping back from the cadence of biweekly reporting, we found ourselves asking a broader question: what are the high-level trends shaping the SAF landscape this year? Our analysis […]

Here are the latest highlights from ADI’s SAF Tracker: The full newsletter along with archives and databases are available to SAF Tracker subscribers.

On April 7, 2026, the European Commission announced the first official Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) certificate price for Q1 2026 at €75.36 per tonne of CO2 equivalent (~$88/t CO2e), marking the EU’s first explicit carbon price applied to imported goods. This rate will be applied to the embedded emissions in CBAM-covered imports and is […]

Developments include SABA selecting Infinium’s Project Atlas for SAF certificate supply, new strategic partnerships such as XCF Global and BGN to scale production and distribution, and technology advancements like Gevo’s ethanol-to-olefins catalysts. Project activity is also expanding globally, with Phelan eFuels advancing an eSAF facility in South Africa and Velocys partnering to develop biomass-to-SAF projects […]

Part of ADI Analytics’ ongoing coverage of the implications of the Iran conflict across oil & gas, LNG, refined products, and chemicals. Jet fuel markets experienced a sharp and localized dislocation following recent geopolitical disruptions, with price movements far exceeding changes in crude benchmarks. The episode has highlighted how exposed aviation fuel economics remain to refining capacity, logistics, […]

In March, ADI’s SAF Tracker highlighted continued progress in SAF contracting and project development. Amex and Shell Aviation extended their SAF environmental attributes agreement with Google through the Avelia registry, while SHEIN partnered with DHL Express to incorporate SAF into international express air freight. Project development advanced with INERATEC and TERTU forming a joint venture […]

We recently attended the 2026 American Bioeconomy Leadership Conference (ABLC) in Washington, D.C., just as U.S. policymakers signaled a renewed willingness to use biofuels as a tool for fuel market stability. The EPA’s announcement allowing a temporary nationwide waiver for E15 gasoline sales underscores how energy security, agricultural policy, and domestic fuel supply resilience are […]

Axens and Airbus have signed a memorandum of understanding to jointly advance the global development and deployment of sustainable aviation fuel, focusing on advocacy efforts, engagement with key stakeholders, and scaling production. Airbus has also entered into a strategic collaboration with the ISCC system and OMV to support the development of a global SAF ecosystem. […]

In March 2026, Capital Power advanced plans for a large data center in Alberta using on‑site gas‑fired generation tied to AECO pricing. With AECO prices recently around US$1.00–1.20 per MMBtu, fuel costs are among the lowest available to data‑center developers in North America, reinforcing Alberta’s appeal as a destination for power‑intensive compute. This momentum is […]

Montana Renewables and World Energy signed a multi‑year deal to supply SAF to airports across North America. Swedavia expanded its joint SAF purchase program in Sweden with new partners including Luleå Municipality and Aviator Airport Alliance. Petrobras chose Topsoe for a SAF and renewable diesel project in Rio de Janeiro, while Kent partnered with Equilibrium […]

Texas is shaping the future of U.S. power development. Many regions across the country remain bottlenecked in long interconnection queues filled with early‑stage proposals that may never move forward, yet Texas stands out for a very different reason. ERCOT has far more generation capacity in advanced stages of development than in speculative stages, a contrast […]

ADI’s latest SAF Tracker shows accelerating global momentum in sustainable aviation fuels. Air bp secured a multi‑year supply deal with Airbus in Europe, and Singapore launched its first voluntary SAF procurement platform. HIF Global reported major cost reductions for its eFuels and eSAF project in Brazil, while new partnerships in Chile are advancing eSAF production. […]
