High Cost of Aviation Fuel: Air Peace, Max Air, and Other Flight Companies Suggest Palm Oil for Aviation Fuel 

Airline operators in Nigeria have called for the Nigerian government to explore palm oil as an alternative source of aviation fuel.

This alternative source for aviation fuel is called JetAI, and according to them, Nigeria is mature enough to look into this new fuel source for the industry, especially considering the high cost of imports.

The airline operators made this known to the Federal government during a meeting held in Abuja on the 18th of October, 2023 on developing and using Sustainable Aviation Fuel, Low Carbon Available Fuel and other transparent fuel sources in Nigeria.

Speaking on behalf of the operators, Captain Roland Iyayi, the CEO of Topbrass Aviation Limited stated that the country is in a better shape to drive alternative fuel sources for the aviation industry by exploring palm oil use. He also noted that sustainable aviation fuel has vast opportunities for Nigeria, as its main component is palm oil. 

He added that the Nigerian Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) should champion sustainable fuel and provide a bigger picture that the economy can grow by providing a comparative advantage. He also included that Nigeria already has available technology and raw materials that can be taken advantage of, which will help the country lead in the area of sustainable aviation fuel.
