Aviation Energy Forum 2025

The IATA Aviation Energy Forum (AEF) represents a critical gathering for the global aviation fuel community, combining the legacy of the Fuel Forum and the Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) Symposium into one comprehensive event. It has quickly established itself as the premier industry meeting for professionals and organizations working in aviation fuel, serving as a unique platform where airline representatives, fuel suppliers, SAF providers, and other IATA Strategic Partners come together. The forum is an essential opportunity to discuss the pressing priorities of the industry, explore ways to enhance operational efficiency, and chart a path forward toward the aviation sector’s goal of achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.

At AEF, the focus extends beyond simple discussions of fuel logistics to address the significant challenges and opportunities related to sustainable aviation fuels. It offers a rare chance for the key players in aviation energy to collaborate on strategies that will help the industry reduce its environmental footprint while maintaining operational excellence. The event acts as a conduit for creating a shared understanding of what airlines must do to meet their ambitious carbon reduction commitments, emphasizing the importance of collective action and innovation in achieving these goals.

What makes AEF particularly valuable is its invitation-only format, which ensures that all attendees are deeply involved in shaping the future of aviation fuel. IATA Members and Strategic Partners are given the exclusive opportunity to engage in high-level conversations that will ultimately impact the direction of the industry. The forum offers a structured yet collaborative environment where stakeholders can align on critical issues, share insights, and develop solutions that promote both sustainability and economic viability within the aviation sector.

In a rapidly changing world where sustainability is becoming an essential focus across all industries, the IATA Aviation Energy Forum serves as a crucial touchpoint for those driving the transition to cleaner, more efficient energy solutions in aviation. Through thoughtful discussions, strategic partnerships, and a commitment to action, AEF plays a significant role in guiding the aviation fuel community toward a greener, more sustainable future.
