The collaboration, introduced on the Wings India 2024, will deal with the Indian aerospace business’s decarbonisation ambitions by supporting SAF manufacturing and commercialisation, utilizing a brand new HEFA know-how pathway and domestically sourced feedstocks.
Each entities will work collectively on technical evaluation, approvals, market entry, and sustainability accreditation efforts for the manufacturing of SAF.

“My workplace is concentrated on facilitating native business gamers to industrialise indigenous rising applied sciences and different improvements that goal to make a social impression. Decarbonisation is a key aim of the aviation business and sustainable aviation gas (SAF) is a viable, here-and-now answer that requires scaling-up. The collaboration between CSIR-IIP and Airbus will deal with that potential and assist form India as a SAF manufacturing unit of the world,” Prof Ajay Sood, Principal Scientific Advisor to the Authorities of India, stated.
“SAF is likely one of the principal pillars of Airbus’ decarbonisation roadmap. We imagine India has the potential to change into a world SAF manufacturing hub leveraging feedstock availability, native expertise and technological experience and its means to scale up options. Airbus is, due to this fact, dedicated to growing and advancing that potential. The MoU with CSIR-IIP is a significant step in our ambition to decarbonise the aviation sector,” Rémi Maillard, President and Managing Director, Airbus India and South Asia, stated.
“The aviation sector has strengthened its sectoral CO2 discount targets so as to attain net-zero carbon emission by 2050. SAF, together with the one developed by CSIR-IIP, will act as the measure with the most important impression on the business’s decarbonisation effort. The most important problem within the rise of SAF uptake lies in (i) the ramp up of manufacturing and (ii) addressing the price differential between SAF and traditional jet gas. Each CSIR-IIP and Airbus are completely happy to collectively collaborate, talk and promote SAF utilization as a key answer to cut back aviation’s emissions,” Dr. Harender Singh Bisht, Director, CSIR-IIP, stated.

Presently, all Airbus plane are licensed to fly on 50 per cent SAF mix, with a aim to attain the functionality to fly as much as 100 per cent SAF by 2030. Airbus and CSIR-IIP will contribute to growing this as much as 100 per cent so as to take away the necessity to use fossil fuels.
Whereas CSIR-IIP will examine gas properties below the brand new pathway and the impression on plane techniques and the atmosphere, Airbus will present steerage on the new fuels analysis course of, sharing gas testing and plane techniques information.
