Avfuel Corporation has announced the first delivery of blended sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) out of Port Everglades to Naples Aviation (KAPF).
Naples Aviation accepted Avfuel’s delivery of SAF on December 10, 2024.
It marked the fuel supplier’s first network location to commit to consistent SAF inventory out of this new supply point.
“This is a huge step forward in scaling SAF distribution and adoption within the business aviation sector,” said Joel Hirst, Avfuel’s senior vice president of sales. “Avfuel is dedicated to making SAF more accessible throughout the United States, and deliveries like this one help further our commitment to supporting the business aviation industry in growing the use of SAF.”
In addition to offering SAF, Naples Aviation also recently began offering 94 octane unleaded fuel (UL 94) as an environmentally cleaner alternative to traditional aviation gasoline.
“Providing cleaner, alternative fuels is important to the Naples aviation community, and it’s our responsibility to provide sustainable options to our customers,” said Byron Gray, Naples Aviation senior director of FBO services.
“We are excited to be the Avfuel Network’s first SAF supply location in the eastern U.S. and look forward to seeing how this drives the industry overall.”
