Of course: DO!
The Austrian Federal Ministry of Innovation, Mobility and Infrastructure has just drawn up a SAF roadmap with the aim of “creating suitable framework conditions in and for Austria for the introduction and market ramp-up of Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF). The ministry’s website states the reasons for this:
“As alternative propulsion systems such as battery-electric aircraft are an option for aviation in the longer term in the best case scenario, sustainable fuels and e-fuels must be used in aviation as a priority.”
