Thursday, January 8, marked an exciting milestone in advancing sustainable aviation. Snohomish County Executive Dave Somers joined state and local leaders, industry experts, and key partners in celebrating the launch of the Cascadia Sustainable Aviation Accelerator (CSAA) during an event at Boeing Future of Flight. "This initiative will be successful because it is grounded here, in the communities where aviation, manufacturing and clean energy intersect," Somers said. "CSAA builds on the infrastructure, workforce and partnerships we have already put in place, and this is just the beginning. Coalition partners like Washington State University are eager to partner in the establishment of a world class research and development facility adjacent to Paine Field. Combined with our region’s aviation industry cluster, these developments ensure we will be a leader in global aviation sustainability and investment well into the future.” Unlike traditional jet fuel, SAF is formulated from sustainable feedstocks, like crop seed oil, agricultural and forestry waste.
