Singapore Airlines has signed a binding offtake agreement to purchase up to 4,800 tonnes of next-generation sustainable aviation fuel from Aether Fuels’ Project Beacon facility in Singapore. Deliveries are scheduled to start in 2028 and run for three years. Singapore Airlines is the first customer for the facility.
The fuel will be produced from gaseous waste carbon including biomethane and industrial waste gases. The facility will use Aether’s Aether Aurora technology based on the Fischer-Tropsch process. The fuel is projected to cut lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions by more than 70pc compared with conventional jet fuel and will be certified under CORSIA.
The plant is being developed at Aether’s refining complex on Pulau Bukom. It is designed to yield roughly 2,000 tonnes of fuel annually. The partnership builds on a memorandum of understanding signed in 2025.
