Episode 20 | Catalyzing SAF and Navigating the Future of Clean Aviation
In this episode of the Catalyst podcast series, Smart Freight Centre CEO Christoph Wolff sits down with Theye Veen, Chief Commercial Officer and Co-Founder of SkyNRG — one of the world’s pioneers in Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF).
From launching the first SAF-powered flights to navigating the challenges of scaling production, Theye shares SkyNRG’s 15-year journey, key inflection points, and what’s needed to make SAF bankable at scale. The discussion dives into the role of EU mandates like ReFuelEU, the financing "valley of death" for e-SAF projects, and how corporate and policy support can accelerate the path to zero-emission aviation.
