Voluntary SAF progs by airlines will provide value proposition for cos in reducing carbon footprints: Airbus official

Voluntary sustainable aviation fuel programmes by airlines will provide a value proposition for corporates in reducing their carbon footprints, and feedstock collection for producing the fuel will also bring in collateral socio-economic benefits for India, according to a senior Airbus official.

European aircraft maker Airbus, which has a significant presence in India, has also pitched for bringing corporates’ spending on the airlines’ voluntary Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) programmes under the government’s CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) framework.
