2025 will undoubtedly be filled with surprises and unanticipated turns in the global markets for biofuels. Substantial shifts in the market occurred thanks to the EU’s anti-dumping ruling on Chinese biodiesel, the delay in EUDR enforcement, and a Trump win in the US. Despite these ambiguities, let’s explore 4 reasons that will transform the biofuels markets for the year ahead.
The aviation industry is on the brink of a transformative shift as it strives to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. At the heart of this transition is Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). European initiatives are reshaping the aviation industry but financing is critical in realizing these ambitions quickly. But, how to finance aviation’s sustainable future today?
The Boston Consulting Group’s (BCG) 2024 report, Innovation Systems Need a Reboot, highlights a growing gap between the prioritization of innovation and companies’ readiness to achieve their goals. But how to get back on track? How to lead the next transformative innovation wave?
As the aviation industry strives to achieve net-zero carbon emissions, electro-sustainable aviation fuel (eSAF) has emerged as a promising yet controversial solution. eSAF holds immense potential for decarbonizing the skies. But critics argue it might come at a cost to the industry’s growth and operational viability. Will eSAF make aviation sustainable quickly?
Supply chain disruptions keep on coming, but companies seem to be reducing their efforts to enhance resilience. Research suggests that CEO’s with prior experience in high-level supply chain roles might be the key to building more resilient supply chains and drive better financial results.
Concerns over the credibility of sustainability claims are growing, with a majority of CFOs warning that their industry’s sustainability reporting risks being perceived as greenwashing. At the same time, regulators are out key priorities for scrutiny and CSRD compliance is high on the list. Will CSRD eliminate greenwashing quickly?
As the shipping industry is responsible for around 2-3% of global carbon emissions, its contribution to climate change cannot be ignored. But the global shipping industry finds itself facing substantial challenges as it works to meet ambitious decarbonisation targets. Moody’s has explored this in depth: why can’t shipping decarbonise now?
Aviation is one of the least sustainable and hard to decarbonise activities. It accounts for 2.5% of global CO₂ emissions and has contributed around 4% to global warming to date. Sustainable Airline Fuel (SAF) can reduce emissions upto 80% but will it help decarbonise the aviation industry now?
As businesses face increasing pressure to minimize their ecological footprint, sustainable warehousing offers a compelling pathway to meet regulatory demands and achieve substantial cost savings. But how to implement and improve sustainable warehousing operations? What are the challenges and how can they be overcome?
With growing global complexity in supply chains, companies have recognized that it is not possible to maintain competitiveness on their own. Therefore, outsourcing to third-party supply chain management (SCM) providers is an important strategic tool to focus on their core competencies and access global resources. But how can outsourced SCM create more value?
