Decarbonizing Canadian Aviation

The Pathway to Sustainable Flight Through SAF Innovation

 

The Canadian Council for Sustainable Aviation Fuels (C-SAF) has published a series of essential briefing documents and insights driving the transition to sustainable aviation fuel in Canada. From policy frameworks to production pathways, these resources support industry action and national climate goals. Together, they form a cohesive roadmap for decarbonizing aviation, integrating science, policy, and technology to enable Canada’s transition to sustainable flight.

Accelerating Canada’s Journey to Net-Zero Aviation

Welcome to the Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) Briefing Files hub — your gateway to Canada's leading resources on SAF development, deployment, and policy. This curated collection empowers policymakers, industry leaders, researchers, and stakeholders with critical insights, evidence, and action plans to advance sustainable aviation in Canada. Explore foundational documents, data-driven outlooks, feedstock potential, technological pathways, and CSAF’s national Roadmap — all designed to help Canada reach its 10% SAF usage target by 2030 and unlock up to 1 billion litres in domestic production annually. These materials reflect our collective commitment to decarbonizing aviation through innovation, investment, and cross-sector collaboration.

Let’s build the future of flight, together.
