According to forecasts, the aviation market will be characterised by dynamic growth. At the same time, a reduction in GHG emissions from transport is postulated. One of the proposed solutions is sustainable aviation fuels (SAF). The aim of this article is to analyse the impact of sustainable aviation fuels on the development of the aviation market. Economic and environmental criteria will be considered. The paper uses an approach based on an analysis of foundational data, including academic articles, industry reports and sustainability reports presented by carriers. Given the dynamics of the market, it seems difficult at this point to secure the right quantities of SAF. Larger aerospace companies are seeking to secure supply by, among other things, signing memoranda and co-funding innovation activities to develop supply. The main added value of the presented research is that it highlights the need for cooperation between several stakeholders in the aviation market who are committed to the growth of air transport.

Według prognoz, rynek lotniczy będzie charakteryzował się dynamicznym wzrostem. Jednocześnie postulowana jest redukcja emisji gazów cieplarnianych z transportu. Jednym z proponowanych rozwiązań są zrównoważone paliwa lotnicze (SAF). Celem niniejszego artykułu jest analiza wpływu zrównoważonych paliw lotniczych na rozwój rynku lotniczego. Rozważone zostaną kryteria ekonomiczne i środowiskowe. W artykule zastosowano podejście oparte na analizie danych podstawowych, w tym artykułów naukowych, raportów branżowych i raportów zrównoważonego rozwoju wybranych przewoźników. Biorąc pod uwagę dynamikę rynku, wydaje się, że w tym momencie trudno jest zapewnić odpowiednie ilości SAF. Większe firmy lotnicze starają się zabezpieczyć dostawy, między innymi podpisując memoranda i współfinansując działania innowacyjne w celu rozwoju dostaw. Główną wartością artykułu jest przegląd kwestii zrównoważonych paliw lotniczych.
