Problem
The aviation industry faces significant pressure to reduce its carbon footprint, but the supply of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) remains limited, creating a demand-supply gap. Traditional SAF production methods can be energy-intensive and reliant on specific feedstocks, hindering widespread adoption and scalability.
Solution
SAFasia Inc. addresses this challenge by developing investment-ready Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) projects in Southeast Asia, leveraging a proprietary Power-and-Biogas-to-Liquid (PBtL) technology. This process converts biogas, carbon dioxide, and renewable electricity into synthesis gas (syngas), which is then transformed into SAF via Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. The PBtL technology offers a high-efficiency pathway with a significantly lower carbon footprint compared to conventional jet fuel, meeting international blend-in standards. SAFasia structures these projects by managing feasibility studies, securing feedstock, obtaining permits, and forging strategic partnerships to ensure project viability and scalability.
Target Audience
SAFasia targets aviation fuel off-takers, investors, and governments seeking to meet sustainability mandates and reduce the aviation sector's environmental impact.
