Singapore will establish a state‑backed company to centrally procure its first batch of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) in 2026, targeting a 1% SAF uplift that year and timed to precede a planned SAF levy for the country’s aviation sector.

Briefing
Singapore’s move creates a centralized demand signal to meet a 1% SAF uplift in 2026 and coordinates procurement ahead of a planned SAF levy, a concrete national implementation step for SAF policy.
Global SAF supply remains very limited and carries price and supply risks: EASA’s inaugural ReFuelEU technical report finds SAF accounted for just 0.6% of fuel uplifted, underscoring why coordinated procurement matters.
The procurement vehicle follows regional efforts to scale supply and demand, such as the Cathay Group and Airbus investment to accelerate SAF production in Asia, and comes amid industry warnings that current policies are insufficient to trigger necessary scale‑up.
