據烴加工新聞7月4日消息稱，英國工程公司勞斯萊斯表示，將與石油公司殼牌合作開發可持續航空燃料(SAF)，以實現兩家公司到2050年實現凈零排放的計劃。

　　雙方簽署了一份諒解備忘錄 (MoU)，勞斯萊斯表示，這將有助于 100%的SAF 用于飛機。

　　在其最大的業務——航空領域，勞斯萊斯計劃到2023年使其所有商用發動機都能100%使用SAF燃料，這種燃料比傳統燃料的碳排放量少70%。

　　SAF 面臨的挑戰是供應短缺，而與殼牌合作伙伴關系可以幫助解決這一問題。

　　他說:“我們相信，在這些目標上共同努力，既可以為新創新的開發帶來好處，也可以通過合作找到途徑，釋放目前已經在使用的技術的凈碳減排潛力。”

　　Rolls-Royce partners with Shell in sustainable aviation fuel push

　　British engineering company Rolls-Royce said it would partner with oil company Shell to work on the development of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) in line with both their plans for net zero emissions by 2050.

　　The pair signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) which Rolls-Royce said would help with plans to certify 100% SAF for use in planes.

　　In the aviation sector, its biggest business, Rolls-Royce plans to make all its commercial engines compatible to run on 100% SAF, which produces up to 70% less carbon than conventional fuel, by 2023.

　　The challenge for SAFs is that there is a shortage of supply, which the Shell partnership could help address.

　　"We believe that working together on these aims can deliver benefits for both the development of new innovations as well as collaborating to find ways to unlock the net carbon emissions reduction potential of technology that is already in use today," he said.
