RefuelEU sets mandatory targets for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) use:
2% by 2025,
5% by 2030 (incl. 0.7% synthetic fuels),
rising to 63% by 2050 (incl. 28% synthetic fuels).
A support mechanism will use 20 million ETS allowances (2024–2030) to cover up to 95% of the price gap for RFNBOs. The Delegated Act on pricing methodology was under consultation in December 2024.
As of May 2025, only Denmark and Finland have adopted the legislation; 17 other EU countries plan to finalize it within the year.
