SAF Act
This bill extends and increases tax credits for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) producers. It raises the credit rate from 20 cents to 35 cents per gallon for certain SAF facilities and from $1.00 to $1.75 per gallon for others, while requiring SAF to meet ASTM International standards and exclude palm oil or petroleum-derived sources. The credit period is extended from ending in 2029 to 2033, applying to fuel produced after December 31, 2025. The bill directly affects SAF producers meeting these specific criteria, aiming to incentivize cleaner fuel production for the aviation industry.
