India has potential to be key sustainable aviation fuel producer, says IATA official
sustainable aviation fuel by utilising its ethanol supplies and availability of lipids feedstocks like non-edible industrial oils, according to a senior official at the global airlines' grouping IATA.
With decarbonisation in focus, efforts are being made to reduce emissions and over the years, Indian carriers have operated some flights with a blend of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and traditional Aviation Turbine Fuel (ATF).
Hemant Mistry, Director of Net Zero Transition at the International Air Transport Association (IATA), said the ecosystem for SAF has developed but there is more work to be done.
«There are some very good opportunities for India right now. One is in terms of SAF feedstocks like agricultural waste… there is a growing understanding on what to do for SAF production. We are talking to a number of companies to understand how we can collaborate… oil companies,» Mistry told PTI in a recent interview in Geneva.
The International Air Transport Association (IATA) represents around 340 airlines, including Indian carriers, that account for more than 80 per cent of the global air traffic.
