SIA to buy SAF made from waste gases at new Singapore plant
In Singapore, Channel News Asia reported that Singapore Airlines (SIA) announced that it will buy sustainable aviation fuel made from waste gases as part of its efforts to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2050.
The airline said it signed an agreement to purchase up to 4,800 tons of next-generation sustainable aviation fuel from Aether Beacon over three years, according to the report.
The deliveries will commence in 2028, said SIA and Aether Fuels in a joint media release on Wednesday.
The fuel will be produced using new technology that converts waste carbon feedstocks, such as biomethane and industrial waste gases, into aviation fuel, according to the report.
The fuel will be produced at Project Beacon, Aether Fuels’ commercial production facility which is being developed in Pulau Bukom. SIA is the first airline to buy sustainable aviation fuel from the facility.
