Abstract:

Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is set to play an indispensable role in the aviation industry's decarbonization journey, with APAC emerging as one of the most dynamic regions to watch. However, there are significant challenges for SAF to reach its full potential. Many different theories exist; policy alignment, feedstock availability, technology, infrastructure readiness, and demand aggregation are amongst some of the most debated challenges.

​

This webinar will look into the policy discussion with a focus on the APAC’s regional policy roadmaps and designs, identifying the challenges and providing actionable insights. This webinar will also feature a perspective outside of APAC in order to share international knowledge.

​​

This webinar forms part of the Insight Series leading up to the SAF APAC Summit 2027 in Sydney. Join us as we accelerate SAF deployment across the region.
