Government support for the adoption of sustainable aviation fuel to drive growth for SAF in India

India is on its road toward sustainable aviation fuel while glorying in its commitment to low carbon emissions and a greener aviation sector. The white paper that India came up with in 2019 on the National Green Aviation Policy was prepared after consulting several stakeholders in the aviation sector, including MoEFCC, the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, the Directorate of Civil Aviation (DGCA), and major airport operators and airlines. With this policy in place, the country is on the path to becoming a sustainable aviation leader. According to IATA, it is expected to be the third largest air passenger market after China and the United States in the next ten years.

Through its Clean Skies for Tomorrow initiative, the World Economic Forum brought the Indian private and public sectors together to scale up the production and adoption of SAF. India is, therefore, positioned to increase the adoption of SAF through government support and innovation by the private sector to reduce the carbon footprint of its aviation sector. This collaboration underlines the country's commitment to sustainable growth.

India generates tremendous amounts of agricultural residue, including by-products from farmlands, used cooking oils, and solid wastes, which can provide an excellent source for scaling up domestic production of SAF.

Otherwise, scrap feedstocks are being made into sustainable fuels. Indian airlines have already begun embracing this product. For example, IndiGo has signed a memorandum of understanding with an international SAF supplier to examine its viability for commercial deployment. SpiceJet has also developed a blueprint called "Deploying Sustainable Aviation Fuels at Scale in India," which spells out plans for ramping up production and utilization of SAF.

Factors such as the country's intentions to scale up domestic production of SAF and innovative policy-making with stakeholder collaboration show India's commitment to sustainable aviation. With its resources, markets, and forward-looking policies, India is an example of how it can propel the adoption of SAF, marking a new direction for sustainable growth in global aviation.
