Back British SAF and Bring it to Grangemouth quickly 🛩⛽️
The second reading of the SAF Bill delivered exactly what we hoped to see – a united, cross-party commitment to building a thriving domestic SAF industry. Key takeaways: ✅ Bill successfully passed Second Reading with broad cross-party support. ✅ Strong focus on feedstock

Delighted to have spoken in the Second Reading of this important legislation this week. SAF is a huge economic opportunity for Fife and Scotland and will help us meet carbon reduction targets.

3/ Scotland's rich industrial legacy in chemical engineering combined with access to North Sea carbon storage capabilities positions it perfectly to pioneer this low-carbon fuel production.
