The Minnesota Sustainable Aviation Fuel Hub – a local effort to usher in a new era of more eco-friendly air travel – has earned the backing of another industry giant.
At the annual Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas on Tuesday, Delta Air Lines announced that French airplane maker Airbus plans to join and invest in Minnesota’s Sustainable Aviation (SAF) Hub. The European company joins a growing list of big corporate backers, including Bank of America, Ecolab, and Cargill.
Airbus’s precise level of participation and investment isn’t yet clear, but the company’s name certainly adds weight to the endeavor: Airbus is the largest airplane maker in the world. The company is joining “a demand consortium with a multi-year commitment to purchase SAF,” according to a statement issued by Delta on Tuesday.
