World Fuel Services, a World Kinect company, has launched its myWorld Decarbonize tool.
This application is designed to streamline purchases of SAF via Book and Claim by providing a simplified way to calculate carbon emissions associated with fuel burn and purchase SAF Certificates (SAFc) to balance those emissions.
The tool is available on the myWorld platform and via phone to the Global Fuel Logistics team, so no matter how, when, or where purchased, customers have access to SAF to lower emissions.
“The launch of the myWorld Decarbonize tool will play a crucial role in enabling our customers to
decarbonize with SAF,” said Brad Hurwitz, senior vice president of supply & trading at World Fuel.
“This tool supports our customers in their journey towards net zero emissions by making lower
carbon options easy to buy.”
The aviation industry faces significant challenges in achieving net zero emissions due to limited centralized supply, distributed demand, and accessibility of Book and Claim.
The myWorld Decarbonize tool addresses this gap by offering a streamlined, point-of-sale solution that lowers barriers to accessing Book and Claim. myWorld Decarbonize also educates consumers on using Book and Claim to mitigate their carbon impact, supporting more sustainable flying.
SAF is a type of jet fuel derived from renewable resources like fats, oils, greases, and biomass.
The myWorld Decarbonize tool employs a CORSIA lifecycle analysis approach to calculate emissions from fuel burn, taking into account both the production and combustion phases.
