Fuel Buyers
Why Use RenewableJetFuels.org?
RenewableJetFuels.org and the associated Elsevier TechSelect database have been painstakingly developed to help buyers navigate this new and rapidly shifting fuel landscape. Fuel buyers will save staff time in identifying and evaluating news and commercial information on renewable fuels companies. They will also gain perspective and clarity on an otherwise complex industry that is full of noise and misinformation. This will ultimately help fuel buyers save money and avoid reputational risk by making responsible sourcing and partnering decisions with viable renewable fuel companies.
Why Buy Renewable Jet Fuels?
The current jet fuel marketplace is characterized by long-term upward price pressure, extreme price volatility, regulatory uncertainty, and risk of supply disruptions. Refiners are producing less kerosene while the US military is converting all of its fleets to kerosene use, putting additional pressure on kerosene markets. On top of this, governments around the world are introducing carbon penalties that increase the cost of fossil fuel use.
The long-term jet fuel price trend is upward, while the long-term renewable jet fuel cost trend is downward. Renewable jet fuels offer new, low-carbon, and potentially less volatile and costly procurement opportunities. Early and active engagement will be required for fuel buyers to access advantaged renewable jet fuels, rather than waiting for them to be made available on the market and priced equal to, or at a premium to, fossil jet fuels. Ultimately, renewable jet fuels represent a material and strategic hedge to fossil fuel price exposure for engaged buyers. Forming strategic relationships and structuring sophisticated supply agreements with the leading suppliers today will give buyers sustainable procurement advantages in the future.
