LAS VEGAS, Oct 22 (Reuters) - At the world's most significant industry show in Las Vegas high-end jets are drawing buyers with their smooth silhouettes, [luxurious cabins](https://www.abnnewswire.net/companies/en/31347/%E0%B8%9A%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B4%E0%B8%A9%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%97-Mission-NewEnergy-%E0%B8%88%E0%B8%B3%E0%B8%81%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%94.html/4) - and significantly, their usage of alternative fuels.
+
Fuel producers and jetmakers are eager to [showcase](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) novel kinds of air travel fuel deemed less hazardous to the climate, from utilized cooking oil to the definitely less attractive meat waste.
+
[Business jet](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) operators, like airlines, have actually acquiesced environmental pressure on aviation and dedicated to halving carbon emissions by 2050 compared to 2005.
+
Their hope is that adopting eco-friendly fuel to curb emissions might make business jets more attractive to [ecologically conscious](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm) buyers - specifically corporations facing questions over sustainability from shareholders or green campaign groups.
+
The availability of less contaminating personal jets might also spare the rich and well-known the unfavorable publicity experienced by Britain's Prince Harry and his better half Meghan over a [current](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053) [personal jet](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) trip to southern France.
+
Five [Gulfstream](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) jets on screen in Las Vegas are [utilizing California-produced](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) fuel from inedible beef tallow.
+
The most recent waste-based fuels include "fats, grease and oils that are byproducts of the food market," said Bryan Sherbacow, chief industrial officer of Boston-based [biofuel](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL) producer World Energy, which produces fuel from meat waste utilized by Gulfstream.
+
"All of our item is inedible."
+
Some of the other 79 aircraft on display are expected to be powered by 150,000 gallons of other renewable fuel blends expected to be pumped at the show.
+
FLIGHT SHAMING
+
Private jets represent less than 0.1% of total annual carbon emissions globally, but can release, on average, as much as 20 times more carbon emissions per guest mile than jetliners, according to the London-based private charter company Victor.
+
Prince Harry has actually defended his periodic use of private jets to ensure his household's security, and has actually said that on the [unusual events](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) he does not fly commercially he [offsets](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) his emissions.
+
But planemakers say events such as the furore over his travel plan have actually added fresh challenges for a market already making every effort to validate its contribution to cutting business [expenses](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608).
+
"Incidents of flight shaming including making use of personal jets are regrettable when you consider that our industry has delivered fuel efficiency enhancements of 40% over the past 40 years," said Bombardier Aviation President David Coleal.
+
Bombardier thinks increased sustainable fuel usage will help the [industry](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053) make with corporations and wealthy purchasers. According to market data, billionaires only have a 19% business jet ownership rate.
+
But even an image remodeling - with jets sporting sticker labels like "this aircraft flies on sustainable fuels" and organisers including [alternative fuel](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) pumps for visiting airplanes - is unlikely to please all critics at the Oct 22-24 luxury jet occasion.
+
Environmentalists and some analysts stay hesitant that biojetfuels, normally combined 50-50 with kerosene, will make a substantial impact on public understandings about high-end travel.
+
"No amount of [Jatropha](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) or Brazil-nut fuel can make service jets look eco-friendly," said aviation expert Richard Aboulafia.
+
Demand from business jet operators for sustainable fuels now far goes beyond supply and their interest could drive future production, Sherbacow said.
+
World Energy, which produces 40 million gallons of [biofuel](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL) at its California plant, could expand production approximately 150 million gallons by 2022.
+
Corporate charter companies and consultants are also seeing more interest from [customers](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm) who desire to purchase carbon credits to balance out emissions from their [flights](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile).
+
Brian Proctor, CEO of Mente Group, a U.S. consultancy, said emissions contributed in a business [jet utilization](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) study his business recently finished for a Fortune 500 business.
+
"At the end of the day, I believe that rate, cost per hour, variety, speed and performance, that's still the (sales) driver. But I think individuals are ending up being more knowledgeable about the sustainability of operations and how it affects the world."
