Under the programme, SG will provide and receive training on SAF.

Singapore has inked an agreement with the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) to participate in the latter’s assistance, capacity-building, and training on sustainable aviation fuel (ACT-SAF) programme.

Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) Director-General Han Kok Juan, and ICAO Secretary-General Juan Carlos Salazar, signed the agreement on the sidelines of the 41st ICAO Assembly in Montreal, Canada. 

Singapore is the fourth signatory of the ICAO ACT-SAF agreement after Brazil, the European Commission, and Spain.
