Singapore Airlines inks understanding with Aether Fuels for Sustainable Aviation Fuel

The Singapore Airlines (SIA) Group signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to potentially source neat sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) from Aether Fuels (Aether) on Tuesday, 4th February. Aether is a climate technology firm that plans to set up SAF production plants in the United States of America and in Southeast Asia. The agreement outlines the SIA Group’s intention to procure neat SAF for five years when Aether plants begin commercial production, with an option for a five-year extension. The neat SAF will be blended with regular jet fuel before being supplied to selected airports served by Singapore Airlines and Scoot. For its part, Aether will use waste carbon feedstock to produce the fuel, employing its innovative and proprietary Aether AuroraTM technology. This method reduces plant capital cost, increases production efficiency, and achieves higher SAF yields compared to existing techniques. <br/>
