In Singapore, EDB Singapore reported that the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) has set up the Asia-Pacific Sustainable Aviation Center (APSAC) to advance sustainable aviation in the region through policy research, facilitating collaboration and capacity-building.
Its board will be chaired by CAAS director-general Han Kok Juan, while its founding CEO will be Philip Goh, airline industry veteran and former regional vice-president for APAC at the International Air Transport Association (IATA), according to the report.
The new center will carry out policy research in areas such as cleaner fuels, carbon accounting, and carbon market development, as well as green financing. Another potential area is the economics of sustainable aviation fuel supply chains.
It will also facilitate collaboration across government, industry, and academia, for joint studies and projects.
