Subsidies for Sustainable Aviation Fuels in Denmark

The Danish government is offering financial support to airlines to help cover the higher costs of using sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) for domestic flights instead of traditional fossil fuels. This initiative aims to reduce CO2 emissions in the domestic aviation sector, contributing to Denmark's goal of a 70% reduction in emissions by 2030 and aligning with the European Commission's targets. The subsidies will cover the price difference between SAF and fossil fuels, as well as any additional costs associated with using SAF. The aid period will begin after the contract is awarded and will last until December 31, 2027. However, if a new standard for SAF is approved before July 1, 2026, the aid scheme may be suspended, and a new tender could be issued for 2027. Interested suppliers can find detailed guidelines for the tender process and submission requirements in the Tender Specification document, available at the provided link.
