  • The policy brief contends that the GREET model's outdated assumptions regarding land displacement and forest impacts lead to a significant underestimation of indirect land use change (ILUC) emissions for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). This discrepancy allows high-emissions fuels, particularly land-intensive soy and corn biofuels, to qualify for the section 40B tax credit, which the author argues distorts the market against waste-based and synthetic SAF and contradicts congressional intent. The document advocates for updating GREET to a methodology similar to the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA), which incorporates a broader range of ILUC values to better reflect global market impacts.
