[…] And I don't see this crisis actually slowing down that commitment of anything. It's accelerated surprisingly. But we have seen more and more airlines commit significant financial commitments to achieving this net zero by 2050. Nikola, let me come to you on numbers on SAF, Sustainable Aviation Fuel. So how much lower emissions are SAF if you were to use SAF? And how much sustainable aviation fuel has actually been used today? It's essentially fuels are produced from sustainable renewable feedstock and they're very similar in their chemistry to fossil jet fuel. So eventually, using sustainable aviation fuel results in a reduction of the total CO2 emissions compared to fossil jet fuel over the life cycle of the fuel. […]
