Denmark’s Climate Council is recommending the EU reduce its support for sustainable aviation fuels. The council’s analysis suggests decreasing subsidies, currently designed to lower the price of green fuels, could increase air ticket prices by up to 23% by 2045. This policy shift aims to curb demand for air travel and subsequently lower carbon emissions from the aviation sector. The council argues that reducing financial incentives will better reflect the true cost of environmentally friendly alternatives. While potentially impacting consumers’ wallets, the move is presented as a necessary step towards achieving climate goals. The recommendation focuses on recalibrating support mechanisms to ensure a more sustainable and economically viable path for green aviation fuel adoption. The analysis highlights a trade-off between affordability and environmental impact in the aviation industry.
