The city-state’s flag carrier plans to sell 1,000 SAF credits to travelers and freight forwarders, it said in a joint statement Wednesday with the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore and Temasek Holdings Pte. The credits are generated from 1,000 tons of the cleaner fuel delivered to Changi Airport, and each credit purchased will help reduce 2.5 tons of carbon dioxide emissions, according to the statement.
