Decarbonising Aviation Sustainably in Southeast Asia
Decarbonising aviation sustainably in Southeast Asia was a landscape-level programme project led by RSB, and powered by the Boeing Company and Standard Chartered, that aimed to identify the most sustainable paths for Southeast Asia to become a global leader in sustainable aviation fuel production and use and meet regional development goals.
The project’s first phase aimed to understand how sustainable aviation fuel production could scale sustainably in Southeast Asia, based on sustainable feedstock availability and economic feasibility. Phase two, which kicked off in 2024, delve deeper into sustainable feedstock analysis by modelling availability for the next decades. The project also expand to further areas such as education, sustainable aviation fuel roadmap development, sustainability implementation, and book and claim.
