At Smart Freight Week 2026, Phillips 66^® Aviation joined DSV, Microsoft and United Airlines to highlight a new approach to scaling sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) through collaboration across the aviation value chain. 

Together, the companies are unlocking access to up to 11 million gallons of SAF, with the potential to reduce lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 100,000 metric tons compared to conventional jet fuel.  

The initiative brings together fuel production, airline operations and corporate demand. United Airlines will use the fuel, while DSV and Microsoft participate through a book-and-claim model, allowing verified emissions reductions to be allocated independently of physical fuel use. This structure helps expand access to SAF and enables more organizations to take part in reducing aviation emissions.  

For Phillips 66, the collaboration reflects its role in delivering both the physical fuel and the supporting carbon accounting needed to scale SAF adoption. With integrated assets, global logistics capabilities and renewable fuel production, the company is helping turn demand for lower-carbon aviation into reliable, real-world supply.  

As highlighted during the discussion at Smart Freight Week, scaling SAF requires coordination across producers, airlines, logistics providers and customers. This collaboration demonstrates how aligning those efforts can accelerate adoption and deliver measurable impact today.
