SIA to buy up to 4,800 tonnes of sustainable aviation fuel from Aether’s Singapore plant
The fuel is made from waste carbon feedstocks using a new technology
Singapore Airlines (SIA) has entered into an agreement to purchase up to 4,800 tonnes of sustainable aviation fuel over a three-year period from Aether Fuels' plant in Singapore. The fuel, produced using a novel technology, will be delivered starting in 2028. This marks the first time SIA will purchase sustainable aviation fuel using next-generation technology that converts waste carbon feedstocks into aviation fuel.
Under the partnership, known as Project Beacon, Aether is developing a refining complex at Pulau Bukom, where various feedstocks like biomethane and industrial waste gases will be transformed into sustainable aviation fuel. SIA's chief sustainability officer, Lee Wen Fen, emphasized the importance of supporting the development and adoption of sustainable aviation fuel in SIA's goal to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.
