SAF revenue certainty mechanism: levy design

Government has previously confirmed that industry should fund the revenue certainty mechanism through a variable levy on aviation fuel suppliers.

This consultation seeks views on specific design features of the aviation fuel supplier levy, which will fund the sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) revenue certainty mechanism.

The design features of the levy include:

• how it could be calculated
• the length, frequency and sequence of when the levy is calculated, collected and paid
• the use of forecasts to provide certainty for industry
• actions to address over-collection, surpluses and under-collection of the levy
