What is Assistance, Capacity Building and Training for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (ACT-SAF)?

Assistance, Capacity Building and Training for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (ACT-SAF) is an initiative aimed at supporting the development, adoption, and scaling of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) through knowledge sharing, technical assistance, and capacity-building programmes. It helps stakeholders, such as regulators, industry partners, and governments, understand SAF production processes, certification requirements, and infrastructure needs to promote the global transition towards sustainable aviation.

Course Overview

This introductory course is designed to enhance participants’ understanding of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and its critical role in the aviation sector. Tailored to support ICAO Member States, the course aims to equip participants with the knowledge and tools needed to successfully implement SAF initiatives. Key objectives include::

  • Increase the knowledge of key officials, regulators, airlines, airports and wider fuel and agricultural stakeholders in member states.
  • Assist States in developing the necessary competencies and knowledge of what needs to be covered in legislation and in operations, to enable them to implement policies to support the deployment of SAF.
  • Create lasting partnerships to ensure states receive ongoing support in developing and implementing SAF policies.

The course draws on the UK CAA Environment Research and Consultancy Department’s (ERCD) own learning and observations from its experience in aviation sustainability. It consists of a two-day classroom event delivered by UK environmental specialists.

This course is suitable for individuals seeking an introduction to Sustainable Aviation Fuels and is relevant to those working within the aviation, resource efficiency and agricultural industries. The course is applicable to both UK and international regulators, operators, airports, fuel producers and agricultural businesses who wish to gain an understanding of how to develop effective practices in the aerospace industry.

Over two days, delegates will develop their skills in practice through interactive face-to-face presentations, group work and practical exercises.

By the end of this course, delegates will be able to demonstrate a knowledge of how to:

  • Recognise ICAO’s sustainability criteria for SAF sustainability and reporting under CORSIA
  • Acknowledge SAF technology and certification
  • Understand SAF policies
  • Have a high-level view of SAF certification processes
  • Understand SAF logistics
  • Recognise SAF accounting and book and claim systems
  • Be able to complete a request for a SAF feasibility assessment
  • Meet different SAF stakeholders, and initiate collaboration on SAF.

This training course will include the following topics:

  • Introduction to SAF
  • SAF Sustainability and Reporting under CORSIA
  • SAF Technology & Certification
  • SAF Policies
  • SAF Conversion Processes
  • SAF Accounting and Book and Claim Systems
  • SAF Logistics
