Increasing focus on clean aviation fuel is notably driving the market growth, although factors such as fluctuations in oil and gas prices will hinder the market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
Increasing focus on clean aviation fuel will drive the growth of the market. Global fuel price uncertainty, energy security needs, and ever-increasing emissions are driving a global interest in alternative fuels in the aviation industry. The depletion of fossil fuel reserves has also increased the demand for aviation biofuels. Through research and development efforts around the world, aviation biofuels are slowly making their way toward large-scale commercialization. In addition, exhaust gas regulations are being strengthened in various countries. Euro VI emission standards are currently being implemented in European countries and are the basis for emission standards in other countries such as India.
Such emission standards are therefore forcing countries around the world to increase the use of renewable fuels such as ethanol and biodiesel in the aviation sector. In addition, the provider is focused on developing clean fuels in the aviation sector. For example, in March 2022 Rolls-Royce signed an agreement with Air bp for sustainable aviation fuel for engine testing. Such developments will propel the growth of the market we are focusing on during the forecast period.
The launch of new aviation fuel technology is the primary trend in the market growth. Vendors operating in key markets have announced new fuel technologies for sustainable aviation fuels. For instance, in March 2023, Honeywell announced the launch of its new UOP eFining technology, a solution for producing low-carbon sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). eFuels, also known as electro fuels, are a class of synthetic fuels that can replace conventionally produced fossil fuels.
Similarly, in October 2022, Honeywell announced the launch of a new, innovative ethanol-to-jet fuel (ETJ) processing technology that drive the conversion of corn-based, cellulosic, or sugar-based ethanol into SAF. The introduction of such new aviation fuel technologies will drive the growth of the focus market during the forecast period.
Fluctuations in oil and gas prices is a major challenge to the growth of the market. The aviation sector is linked to oil prices, and its success depends on oil prices. Crude oil prices have remained low for a long period of time. Prices are steadily falling due to the imbalance between supply and demand. Earnings for upstream oil and gas companies are declining, directly impacting cash flow. Fluctuations in oil prices pose a significant risk to airlines. Rising oil prices will increase downstream input costs, which in turn will increase the cost of jet fuel.
However, in a period of falling oil prices, operating costs for the airline industry may be reduced. Lower jet fuel prices have increased airline profits and lowered airfares. This increased the demand for air travel, forcing airlines to increase capacity. More routes and more fleets by airlines could hurt profitability if oil prices recover. Falling oil prices have dampened the focus on investing in alternative aviation fuels. Airlines must balance low jet fuel costs with increased supply capacity to take advantage of oil price volatility. Such factors may hinder market growth during the forecast period.

The commercial segment was valued at USD 93.60 Billion in 2017 and continued to grow by 2021. The commercial aircraft segment has been experiencing significant growth since 2021, owing to the post-pandemic recovery of the aviation industry. This is mainly because of the increasing number of air passengers since 2021. Hence, major aircraft OEMs have initiated the revamping of their existing production facilities to ensure scheduled deliveries. Most LCCs are trying to modernize the existing fleet to exploit new market opportunities for the vendors in the market. The increasing number of air passengers has resulted in tremendous pressure on airline and airport authorities to effectively manage the aircraft. This led to an increase in the demand for commercial aircraft and, in turn, aviation fuel which will drive the growth of the market in focus during the forecast period.
