Total: starts sustainable aviation biofuels in France

(CercleFinance.com) - Total has announced that it has started producing sustainable aviation biofuels in France - produced from waste and residues - at its biorefinery in La Mède (Bouches-du-Rhône) and its site in Oudalle (Seine-Maritime).


These aviation biofuels, produced from used cooking oil, will be used in French airports from this month. Total will also produce sustainable aviation biofuels in 2024 from its zero oil platform in Grandpuits (Seine-et-Marne).

From its sites in France, Total will thus be able to meet the change in French legislation which provides for a mandate of 1% incorporation of biofuels for aviation from 2022, followed by a target of 2% by 2025 and 5% by 2030.
