Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

National Aviation Policy: Aer Lingus (Resumed)

Mr. Donal Moriarty:

Yes, absolutely. Through the National Civil Aviation Development Forum, NCADF, we are linked in to all of the developments in the sustainability arena. In fact, we are contributing to it ourselves. We commissioned a feedstock study by a company called Nova Pangaea which is under way. The company is engaging with the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine and with key forestry providers in Ireland to examine the availability of feedstock on the island of Ireland to support an Irish-based sustainable aviation fuel, SAF, production facility. We are participating in many reviews and research projects relating to SAF and are actively contributing by commissioning a study in that regard. We are keen and willing to be involved in those projects.
