The SAF Podcast: Understanding aircraft leasing and SAF & the launch of Future Energy Global

Date:

With SAF being the only current solution to decarbonising air travel on existing aircraft, should the owners of around half the global fleet, the aircraft lessors, be putting more skin in the game?

This is a large component to this week’s episode where Al spoke to Natasha Mann, CEO, Future Energy Global.

Natasha launched Future Energy Global in early 2024, but she has a long history in the aviation after experience with Fairchild Dornier and Airbus as well as her time in aircraft leasing at GECAS.

Now Natasha is focusing on the Sustainable Aviation Fuel industry by creating  a pre-purchasing system which aims to simultaneously reduce the cost of capital for the producer, increase airline access to SAF and make aircraft lessor portfolios more green inline with the aggressive ESG requirements of their underlying Institutional Investors.

Natasha gives a great explanation as to why lessors should be more involved in the SAF space and how Future Energy Global plans to bring capital in to SAF production whilst also lowering the cost of SAF for the consumer.
