01What it does

What Council on Sustainable Aviation Fuels Ac does

Mission

The Council on Sustainable Aviation Fuels Accountability (cosafa) will establish reporting, accounting, recordkeeping, and auditing procedures that are both necessary and appropriate to maintain an accurate accounting of the production and use of sustainable aviation fuels (saf). To qualify as saf, fuel must be fit for purpose. It is essential that product carbon intensity and other sustainability data be consistently reported, auditable, and traceable to the party providing the information. Well-designed protocols for chain of custody, throughout the entire supply chain life cycle, will allow product and transaction tracing, provide an appropriate means of verifying relevant data, and prevent inappropriate double counting or double claiming of environmental credits.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
