Brief
Trafikstyrelsen tilbyr en støtteordning for bærekraftige flybrensler (SAF) i innenriks luftfart, med en totalverdi på 186,2 millioner danske kroner over 3 år. Formålet med ordningen er å redusere CO2-utslipp fra dansk innenriks luftfart og fremme teknologisk utvikling ved å oppmuntre flyselskaper til å ta i bruk alternative bærekraftige teknologier og brensler. Støtten dekker prisforskjellen mellom SAF og fossile brensler, samt andre tilleggskostnader ved bruk av SAF. Tildelingskriteriet er basert på laveste pris tilbudt for reduksjon av ett tonn CO2, og støtten vil bli gitt til en eller flere tilbydere med lavest tilbudt pris innenfor tilgjengelige midler. Det er ingen kvalifikasjonskrav utover de generelle kravene til konkurransegrunnlaget.

Award Criteria
Description
The award criterion is best price and will be evaluated based on the lowest price offered in the tender for reducing one tonne of CO2 under the aid scheme. The contracting party will grant aid to one or more tender(s) with the lowest offered price, that can be accommodated within the available aid amount(s) under the scheme, cf. below. However, regardless of the budget for the aid scheme at least one tenderer will not be granted aid, even where such tenderer has submitted a tender which pursuant to the evaluation model would otherwise have resulted in the granting of aid. The purpose of this principle is to ensure optimal competition. Hence, all but one tenderer can be granted aid if the tender(s) are within the total aid amount. The tender of the tenderer that will not be granted aid will cut off all other (higher) tenders. However, if only one tenderer has submitted compliant tender(s), the tenderer will be granted aid, if the tender(s) are within the total aid amount. The granting of aid will be made to the tender(s) with the lowest, second lowest etc. offered price to the extent that: • The total aid amount of the compliant tenders for 2025-2027 is less than or equal to the total available aid amount of the aid scheme, which is DKK 186,200,000 (2025-prices). • The total aid amount of the compliant tenders for 2025 is less or equal to the total available annual aid amount of the aid scheme for 2025, which is DKK 21,250,000 (2025-prices). •The total aid amount of the compliant tenders for 2026 is less or equal to the total available annual aid amount of the aid scheme for 2026, which is DKK 83,000,000 (2025-prices). •The total aid amount of the compliant tenders for 2027 is less or equal to the total available annual aid amount of the aid scheme for 2027, which is DKK 81,950,000 (2025-prices). Thus, if granting of aid to a tender cannot be made without exceeding either the total aid amount for all years (2025-2027) or any of the years separately, the contracting party will not grant (further) aid. The maximum aid amount for each tender will be calculated as the product of the offered aid amount per reduced tonne of CO2 and the offered committed reduced CO2. If several tenders, each of which can be accommodated within the available funds, contains the same offered price, the tenders in question will be ranked through drawing lots to the extent that it is not possible to grant aid to all of these tenders within the available funds and the principles set out above.
Evaluation Method
The award criterion is best price and will be evaluated based on the lowest price offered in the tender for reducing one tonne of CO2 under the aid scheme.
The contracting party will grant aid to one or more tender(s) with the lowest offered price, that can be accommodated within the available aid amount(s) under the scheme, cf. below.
However, regardless of the budget for the aid scheme at least one tenderer will not be granted aid, even where such tenderer has submitted a tender which pursuant to the evaluation model would otherwise have resulted in the granting of aid. The purpose of this principle is to ensure optimal competition. Hence, all but one tenderer can be granted aid if the tender(s) are within the total aid amount. The tender of the tenderer that will not be granted aid will cut off all other (higher) tenders.
However, if only one tenderer has submitted compliant tender(s), the tenderer will be granted aid, if the tender(s) are within the total aid amount.
The granting of aid will be made to the tender(s) with the lowest, second lowest etc. offered price to the extent that:- The total aid amount of the compliant tenders for 2025-2027 is less than or equal to the total available aid amount of the aid scheme, which is DKK 186,200,000 (2025-prices).
- The total aid amount of the compliant tenders for 2025 is less or equal to the total available annual aid amount of the aid scheme for 2025, which is DKK 21,250,000 (2025-prices).
- The total aid amount of the compliant tenders for 2026 is less or equal to the total available annual aid amount of the aid scheme for 2026, which is DKK 83,000,000 (2025-prices).
- The total aid amount of the compliant tenders for 2027 is less or equal to the total available annual aid amount of the aid scheme for 2027, which is DKK 81,950,000 (2025-prices).
Thus, if granting of aid to a tender cannot be made without exceeding either the total aid amount for all years (2025-2027) or any of the years separately, the contracting party will not grant (further) aid.
The maximum aid amount for each tender will be calculated as the product of the offered aid amount per reduced tonne of CO2 and the offered committed reduced CO2.
If several tenders, each of which can be accommodated within the available funds, contains the same offered price, the tenders in question will be ranked through drawing lots to the extent that it is not possible to grant aid to all of these tenders within the available funds and the principles set out above.

From the notice
To accelerate the transition towards green aviation, the Danish government is offering subsidies to offset the higher cost of operating domestic flights using sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) instead of fossil aviation fuels. The subsidy is intended to cover both the price differential between SAF and fossil fuels, and other additional costs arising from the use of SAF. This competitive tender procedure concerns the right to receive subsidies under the aid scheme for sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) in domestic aviation. The overall objectives of the aid scheme are to reduce CO2 emissions from the Danish domestic aviation sector and thereby contribute to both the national target of reducing CO2 emissions by 70 per cent by 2030 compared to 1990 levels, and the European Commission’s proposal to cut CO2 emissions by at least 55 per cent by 2030; and to promote technological development and encourage airlines to adopt alternative sustainable technologies and fuels. The Aid Period is expected to start after award pursuant to this competitive tender procedure and will end on 31 December 2027. However, if an ASTM International standard for SAF above 50% is approved prior to 1 July 2026, the aid scheme will be suspended with effect from 31 December 2026, and a new tender may be initiated covering aid for the period 1 January 2027 – 31 December 2027. In that case, successful tenderers under this competitive tender procedure will not be eligible for aid in 2027, unless they are awarded aid under a new tender procedure concerning 2027. The Tender Specification document sets out the competitive tender procedure, including guidelines for the submission of tenders, communication between the tenderer and the awarding authority, and information about the tender procedure in general. For further information on the aid scheme and the applicable terms and conditions, please refer to Appendix A of the Tender Specifications which are available on https://www.trafikstyrelsen.dk/arbejdsomraader/luftfart/puljerMain features of the procedureThis competitive tender procedure is conducted in accordance with the Commissions Guidelines on State Aid for Climate, Environmental Protection and Energy 2022 (CEEAG) and pursuant to the Order No. 1010 of 03 July 2025 on the competitive tendering of an aid scheme for sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) in domestic aviation (in Danish: "Bekendtgørelse om konkurrenceudsættelse af støtteordning til grønne flybrændstoffer (SAF) i indenrigsluftfarten"), which also forms the legal basis for the aid scheme. The Order is issued in Danish. However, an unofficial English translation is available for the tenderers as part of the tender documents and can be found in Appendix B of the Tender Specifications. The procedure for the competitive tender procedure resembles that of an open procedure, where anyone who complies with the criteria for eligibility set out in the Tender Specifications are invited to submit a tender. The tenderers are to prepare their tenders on the basis of the tender documents and to submit their tender before expiry of the deadline for submission of tender on 29 September 2025.
