Oslo set to become the first airport supplier of biofuel

Published by Aero3A

Three European airlines has signed an agreement for a regular supply of biofuel at Oslo Airport, which will next year become the world’s first hub airport to receive regular deliveries of biofuel.

SAS Scandinavian Airlines, Germany’s Lufthansa Group (which includes Lufthansa, SWISS, Austrian Airlines, Germanwings, Eurowings and Brussels Airlines), KLM, and Oslo Airport operator Avinor have all signed agreements with Statoil Aviation to supply 2.5 million liters of biofuel over a 12-month period to the refueling facility at Oslo Airport.

Consisting of a 50% biofuel mix, this equates to around 3,000 flights between Oslo and Bergen and makes Oslo the first major airport in the world to offer a regular supply of biofuel as part of daily operations from March 2015. It is also the first time that sustainable biojet fuel will be used in the airport’s hydrant system.

SAS and budget carrier Norwegian Air Shuttle last week conducted the first biofuel flights in Norway, operating scheduled flights to Oslo from Trondheim and Bergen, respectively, with a 48% mix of biofuel.

SAS said it has reduced its total CO2 emissions by around 13% since 2005, and said it is the only airline in Scandinavia with an all-next-generation jet aircraft fleet. From next year, the airline will begin rolling out even more energy efficient short- and long-haul aircraft, namely the Airbus A330 Enhanced and A320neo, followed by the A350.
