Neste is working with Japanese conventional fueling company Itochu to supply SAF at Japan’s two biggest airports: Narita International and Tokyo Haneda. SAF will initially come from Neste’s Porvoo SAF plant in Finland, at least until the firm’s 1 million ton/yr Singapore expansion project is complete in the first quarter of next year.
