What sustainable aviation fuel costs
There is no public daily price for sustainable aviation fuel: most is sold under private contracts, and the market assessments are sold by subscription. So this page sets the one price that is public, ordinary jet fuel's, against every price of sustainable fuel the news has reported, each with its source. Over the last year the reported prices ran at about 3.0 times the price of jet fuel.

Why it costs more
The feedstocks are scarce and wanted by others too: used cooking oil and animal fats also make renewable diesel for road transport. The plants are new and small, and their builders must pay back their cost over fewer gallons. And the newer ways of making the fuel, from alcohols, from gasified waste, or from carbon dioxide and green hydrogen, cost more still until they are built at scale. Where governments require airlines to use it, the price tends to rise further, since sellers know the buyers must buy.
Jet fuel: the US Energy Information Administration's daily spot price for kerosene-type jet fuel on the US Gulf Coast, free on board (series EER_EPJK_PF4_RGC_DPG), fetched every morning; the chart shows its weekly average. Sustainable fuel: every price, premium or multiple the reader finds stated in the news, with the words that state it and a link to the article. A price is turned into dollars a gallon only when it was stated in US dollars (no exchange rate is guessed), at 0.8 kilograms a litre (330 gallons a tonne) and 42 gallons a barrel; "times jet fuel" for a reported price is that price set against jet fuel's on the same day. Prices reported this way are a sample, not a market index. IATA's estimate: press release of 9 December 2025. To correct a price, write to [email protected].
