The Ministry of Defence cannot accurately determine RAF expenditure on Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) or an average SAF price per litre because aviation fuel is purchased as a mandate-compliant product rather than as separately identifiable SAF and conventional fuel. Any figures provided would therefore be estimates derived from fuel consumption data and publicly available market pricing information.
