SAFc Registry abates 500,000mt of CO2

Independent and not-for-profit SAFc Registry said it has surpassed 500,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO₂e) abated through SAF certificates issued on the platform.

Launched in 2023 by RMI and Environmental Defense Fund (EDF), in collaboration with the Sustainable Aviation Buyers Alliance (SABA) and Energy Web, the SAFc Registry was created to support air transport customers in their decarbonization efforts with an easy to use, credible, enterprise-grade digital tool for tracking emissions claims.

As of February 2026, the platform has issued SAF certificates (SAFc) representing more than 164,000 metric tons  (54m gallons) of neat SAF.

“The SAFc Registry has reached a major growth milestone, underscoring its role in translating early market demand into momentum for sustainable aviation fuel,” said Bryan Fisher, managing director at RMI.

“The registry was designed to deliver the transparency and credibility buyers need to meet climate targets, and this level of uptake demonstrates how verifiable emissions claims through a trusted system can help support the scale-up of low-carbon fuels.”

Users of the registry range from companies addressing Scope 3 aviation emissions, like corporate members of the SABA, to airlines and logistics providers.

To date, 17 fuel providers and 21 different production facilities spanning five countries have issued SAFc that has accounted for the emissions reductions of 62 aviation customers, 13 air transport providers, and three logistics service providers.

The registry is governed by a multi-stakeholder board and is intended to complement other SAF market enablers, including standards, accounting guidance, and structured procurement mechanisms.
