Malaysia aims to produce 1 million tonnes of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) annually by 2027, in line with its National Energy Transition Roadmap and aviation decarbonization goals. SAF is seen as a key solution for reducing carbon emissions in the aviation sector, which currently accounts for 2-2.5% of global CO2 emissions. Major players like EcoCeres and PETRONAS are leading production efforts, although the lack of domestic SAF usage mandates poses challenges for local decarbonization initiatives.
