Mexico plans SAF plants in Mexico City and Cancún, ASA says at first SAF-Mex forum
At the first SAF-Mex forum, Aeropuerto y Servicios Auxiliares (ASA) director general Carlos Manuel Merino Campos said ASA, Mexico's main supplier of aircraft fuel, is pursuing specialized Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) plants in Mexico City and Cancún, to meet Plan México and international greenhouse-gas commitments. He said Mexico supplied 5.4 billion litres of jet fuel last year, half of it imported. Energy undersecretary Jorge Marcial Islas Samperio said Mexico has a route and the resources for environmentally friendly fuel. Transport undersecretary Tania Carro Toledo said advanced alternative fuels can deliver significant CO2 savings without competing with food production for land and water.
