Asia Pacific Sustainable Aviation Center and ISCC sign MoU for SAF
In Australia, Asian Aviation reported that the Asia Pacific Sustainable Aviation Center (APSAC) and ISCC System (ISCC) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to explore cooperation on SAF sustainability certification, industry education, and stakeholder engagement across the Asia-Pacific region. A key focus is helping stakeholders in the region prepare for the certification of sustainable feedstock pathways. The MoU has an initial term of three years.
Under the MoU, APSAC and ISCC intend to combine APSAC’s regional convening role and policy expertise with ISCC’s global experience in sustainability certification and supply chain traceability, including for SAF, according to the report.
“Certification builds the trust that SAF markets need to grow. Asia-Pacific has enormous potential for sustainable feedstocks and SAF production, and we are delighted to work with APSAC to strengthen knowledge and capacity throughout the region,” said Norbert Schmitz, Managing Director of ISCC.
“As demand for SAF in Asia Pacific grows, airlines, producers, and regulators need assurance that the fuel they buy, supply, and regulate is sustainable and traceable. Building understanding of sustainability certification is essential for Asia Pacific to scale up SAF supply and adoption. We are pleased to collaborate with ISCC to help stakeholders across the region build knowledge to prepare for certified SAF supply chains,” said Philip Goh, Chief Executive Officer of APSAC.
