Singapore has set a goal to raise the use of sustainable aviation fuel to more than 1% by 2026, with plans to increase it further to between 3% and 5% by 2030 — a move it says won’t significantly raise airfares.
Singapore’s parliament passed a bill on Tuesday introducing a fixed levy on departing flights to cut emissions and support the use of sustainable aviation fuel by airlines.
The levy will be paid to the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore, which will procure and manage sustainable aviation fuel, according to Senior Minister of State for Transport Sun Xueling at a parliamentary debate.
