flag Singapore mandates 1% sustainable aviation fuel for flights starting Oct. 2026, boosting demand amid global SAF growth challenges.

flag The airline industry's progress on sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) is slowing, with SAF making up just 0.6% of global jet fuel use in 2025, according to IATA. flag High costs and limited production remain major hurdles, especially under EU mandates that raise prices. flag In response, Singapore is launching a voluntary SAF procurement trial in early 2026 involving major companies like Singapore Airlines and Google, aiming to boost demand through centralized buying. flag Starting October 1, 2026, all flights departing Singapore must use 1% SAF, funded by a new fuel levy that may raise ticket prices. flag The city-state plans to increase SAF use to 3–5% by 2030, aligning with international climate goals.
