Stockholm Arlanda Airport introduces biofuel as standard

Stockholm’s Arlanda Airport became the third airport to offer alternative jet fuel through the airport’s main fuelling infrastructure. This fuel, which contains about 10 % biofuel converted from cooked oil, has been purchased by Swedavia through the Fly Green Fund. SAS, KLM, and Braathens Regional Airlines will all be using this fuel on departures from Arlanda. The first uplift of this fuel was on 03 January, by an SAS A320neo. Airbus media relations considers this event to be “a symbolic and important step” toward encouraging the use of sustainable fuel.
