United Nations (UN) delegates attending the Mountain Partnership Global Meeting in Aspen from 26 -29 September are being offered sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) when refuelling with Atlantic Aviation at Aspen-Pitken County Airport.

Atlantic Aviation has partnered with Avfuel to ensure a plentiful supply of Neste My SAF for air operations surrounding the event. Avfuel and Atlantic Aviation already offer an ongoing supply of SAF at the regional hub and will supplement their continuous supply with two renewable diesel-powered truckloads of the fuel.

“Atlantic Aviation is firmly committed to going higher when it comes to promoting sustainable aviation, especially in sensitive mountain environments for which air travel is critical infrastructure for people, goods and services,” said Brian Corbett, Chief Commercial and Sustainability Officer at Atlantic Aviation. “All of us at both Atlantic Aviation and Avfuel are pleased to increase our constant supply of SAF at Aspen-Pitken County Airport for this landmark event.”

As a leader in environmentally friendly and sustainable operations at the airport, Atlantic Aviation not only provides Neste’s MY SAF via Avfuel on an ongoing basis, it also offsets all aircraft  carbon emissions at the field through the purchase of carbon offsets from Carbonfund.org. It is also a primary donor to the methane gas mitigation project led by Aspen CORE – a major collaborative initiative to curb emissions from abandoned mine shafts in the region.
