Boeing, SpiceJet and CSIR-Indian Institute of Petroleum on Friday said that they are working together to explore opportunities for the use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) in the Indian aviation industry.
The companies will work to leverage SAF supply from CSIR-IIP and its production partners and licensees to help SpiceJet decarbonise its fleet, they said in a joint statement.
Noting that SpiceJet is at the forefront in leading initiatives for reduction of carbon footprint, CMD Ajay Singh said, “This expanded work with Boeing, with whom we already share a strong partnership through the highly efficient 737 MAX, along with IIP, who are frontrunners for developing SAF in India, is a step in the journey to ensure air travel is sustainable for future generations.”
