The company will also debut a new tool that tracks sustainable aviation fuel capacity around the world, and provide an update on delivering 100% SAF-compatible airplanes by 2030.

“For more than a century, Boeing has protected, connected and inspired people around the world through innovation and transformative products,” said Dr. Brendan Nelson, president of Boeing Global.. With sustainable growth at the forefront of the next 100 years, we will continue to collaborate around the globe to support aviation’s commitment to net zero emissions by 2050.”
