Singapore Launches National SAF Procurement Pilot with Nine Companies to Boost Sustainable Aviation
Singapore has initiated its first government-led, national-level sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) procurement pilot. This initiative involves nine companies, including Boston Consulting Group, Changi Airport Group, DBS Bank, GenZero, Google, OCBC Bank, Temasek, Singapore Airlines, and Scoot, in collaboration with the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) and its Sustainable Aviation Fuel Company (SAFCo). The memorandum of understanding (MOU) was signed at the Changi Aviation Summit, preceding the Singapore Airshow. This pilot aims to test the operational, commercial, and accounting processes necessary for a national SAF procurement and environmental attribute allocation system. The initiative is part of Singapore's broader strategy to implement a SAF levy starting October 1, 2026, and to achieve a 1% SAF uplift by 2026, with a target of 3% to 5% by 2030.
