Singapore Civil Aviation Authority publishes SAF procurement standards; SAFCo to launch first tender in mid-December
The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore has published the sustainability and procurement standards for sustainable aviation fuel purchased with SAF Levy revenue, requiring the fuel to meet ICAO CORSIA eligibility and to achieve at least a 40% reduction in lifecycle emissions compared with conventional jet fuel. Singapore Sustainable Aviation Fuel Company SAFCo will launch its first tender before mid-December 2026, with delivery in June 2027; the first batch procurement volume is 20,000 to 30,000 tonnes, and the contract may be awarded to one or more suppliers.
Why recommended:Singapore uses sustainable aviation fuel tax revenue for centralized SAF procurement; its 40% emissions reduction threshold and tender arrangements provide a reference for other hubs.
