Accelerating Singapore's Transition to Sustainable Aviation

About us

Aviation has long been vital to Singapore's story: connecting our nation to the world and powering our progress. To keep this growth sustainable, the Singapore Sustainable Air Hub Blueprint charts a clear vision: balancing long-term environmental sustainability with Singapore air hub's competitiveness.

Guided by Singapore's ambition to reduce domestic aviation emissions from airport operations by 20% from 2019 levels in 2030 and achieve net zero aviation emissions by 2050 - it requires partnership, innovation and shared belief in what's possible.

SAFCo is leading this effort, advancing Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) adoption through policy implementation, strategic procurement, and industry collaboration.

Growing Aviation Sustainably

Aviation is a strategic pillar of Singapore’s economy, contributing significantly to national growth and connectivity — and with it comes a shared responsibility to ensure the sector’s continued success is sustainable for the long term.

5% of Singapore's GDP

Aviation powers trade, tourism, and opportunity — a vital engine of national progress.

16.8 Million Tonnes of CO2 (2024)

As air travel rebounds, emissions are rising — highlighting the importance of decisive, collective action toward a low-carbon future.

Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is a Critical Decarbonisation Lever

SAF can deliver 65% of carbon emissions reduction needed to achieve net zero by 2050. However, global supply is scarce and costly. Singapore must act to unlock its potential.

What we do

Our Role in Sustainable Aviation

As Singapore's central procurement entity for SAF, SAFCo drives coordinated action across policy, procurement, and partnerships — translating Singapore’s sustainable aviation vision into measurable progress.

Supporting Singapore's SAF Policy

We implement and manage Singapore's SAF Levy Programme, ensuring transparency and accountability in achieving national targets.

Centralised Procurement of SAF

We aggregate SAF demand across the aviation ecosystem to secure supply, reduce costs, and strengthen long-term resilience.

Market Development for Voluntary SAF Demand

Through public–private partnerships, SAFCo builds voluntary demand and manages Environmental Attributes (EAs) — expanding access, integrity, and confidence in SAF adoption.

How you can contribute to SAF

Everyone has a role to play in shaping a cleaner future for aviation. Partner with SAFCo to drive progress across the ecosystem.
