16 Jul 2025Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831)

Dr Lane, welcome. I am glad that either you or we have at last managed to master the technology and that you have been able to join us remotely. How much of a role does the transport analysis guidance play in guiding the approval of airport expansion?

No, it is a straight question. Will you publish that data?

When will you be publishing that data?

We know that increasingly people are taking the medium-haul, and yet there is no extra tax on the medium-haul. This will be levied on the short-haul. It will not impact the medium-haul.

The SAF mandate will not apply to it.

Yes, the ETS. S&P Global Commodity Insights has looked at the potential constraints on SAF and the potential market. It has said that the number of countries that have proposed or adopted long-term blending targets of sustainable aviation fuels continues to increase. They have done their assessment of that, looking for

It is demand reduction. You have not mentioned it.

Really? Pricing is not something that you are considering.

It is part of demand management. That is very clear in the CCC reports.

16 Jul 2025Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831)

I applaud what you have done on that because it has been very important in driving forward the production of SAF. S&P Global has looked at global production in terms of long-term commodities. We may produce it—it is great that you have driven that production—but it will be sold on the international market and prices wi

That is interesting. We have never insisted on our oil or gas production from the North sea only being sold in the UK, despite what other political parties have said.

Ms Newell, could you just repeat your title?

16 Jul 2025Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831)

You are the director for Heathrow expansion, not the feasibility of it. I think that was Ms Chowns’ point.

16 Jul 2025Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831)

We still have a director for it.

Ms Newell, could you just repeat your title?

16 Jul 2025Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831)

What is the obligation? I understand that the main obligation is that the percentage of SAF should increase from 2% to 22%. What is the obligation around power-to-liquid?

What does the Committee on Climate Change say about demand reduction?

11
16 Jul 2025Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831)

Minister, I want to turn to the sustainable aviation fuel mandate. By 2040, there will have to be 22% SAF in the mix for aircraft. That is the main obligation. It ramps up to the 2040 level. Can you explain to us what the power-to-liquid obligation is?

16 Jul 2025Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831)

What is its primary one? If the second measure is SAF, what is the first one?

I mean efficiency in terms of reducing the emissions that are coming from the increases in technology in the aviation sector.
