Alaska Airlines on Thursday said it would work with Shell PLC's
Shell Aviation unit to expand the sustainable-aviation-fuel, or
SAF, market beyond a standard fuel-supply agreement.
The Alaska Air Group Inc. unit said the agreement with Shell
includes commitments to deepen understanding of the technology,
infrastructure, carbon-accounting systems and public-policy support
needed to bring SAF to more markets, in greater quantities and at a
more sustainable long-term cost.
The carrier, which has set a goal of net-zero carbon emissions
by 2040, said the companies would put particular focus on enabling
supply to the West Coast and alleviating fueling-infrastructure
challenges in the Pacific Northwest.
Alaska Airlines said Shell Aviation would also supply up to 10
million gallons of SAF to the carrier's hub in Los Angeles.
