Singapore Airlines, Scoot make 2030 SAF pledge
SIA Group carriers Singapore Airlines and Scoot announced a shared goal of replacing 5% of their total fuel requirements with sustainable aviation fuels by 2030.
It follows the ICAO’s global framework for Sustainable Aviation Fuels declaration in Dubai.
Sustainable aviation can reduce carbon emissions by up to 80% on a life-cycle basis.
The airlines remain committed to achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050.
Goh Choon Phong, CEO, Singapore Airlines, said: “This is an important milestone in the SIA Group’s sustainability journey.”
The greater use of SAF will be a key lever in our decarbonisation strategy, which includes our continued investment in new generation aircraft and greater operational efficiencies.”
The airlines called for deeper collaboration with partners, stakeholders and governments globally.
“We will continue to find opportunities to work together to support the greater production and use of sustainable fuels.”
It says discussions with fuel suppliers to purchase SAF are ongoing.
In 2017 SIA operated 12 green package flights from San Francisco to Singapore that incorporated the use of SAF.
In 2020, SIA entered a year-long partnership with Stockholm’s Swedavia Airport to deploy a blend of jet fuel and SAF through the airport’s fuel hydrant system.
This year, SIA, CAAS, and GenZero concluded a 20-month SAF pilot scheme.
It saw 1,000 tonnes of neat SAF imported, blended in Singapore, and uplifted via Changi Airport’s fuel hydrant system on SIA and Scoot flights.
