The Sustainable Aviation Buyers Alliance (SABA) recently announced a historic set of transactions for Sustainable Aviation Fuel certificates (SAFc), involving close to 20 business travelers, three airlines, and four fuel producers. Companies participating in these deals have committed to purchase close to $200 million worth of SAFc, equivalent to about 50 million gallons of high-integrity SAF, resulting in around half a million tons of abated CO2e. In this webinar, a diverse group of participants in the SABA RFP, including corporate customers Novo Nordisk and Watershed, SAF providers World Energy and Twelve, and Alaska Airlines, will discuss the perspective of the deals they struck and their roles in the process.

This webinar covers the fundamentals of climate disclosure and Scope 3 emissions reporting for the homebuilding sector, as well as provides implementation guidance on portfolio-level embodied carbon reporting. Scope 3 emissions reporting remains a major gap for many organizations seeking to improve their climate disclosures. For the real estate industry an increased focus on Scope 3 embodied carbon emissions impacts from building materials and construction comprises a significant portion of the sector’s climate impact.

Today, Western states have the chance to make transformative investments that will unlock incredible economic opportunities enabled by new energy. However, to seize this opportunity, states will need to collaborate to expand the region’s electricity transmission system.
