“Hong Kong Business Aviation Centre (HKBAC) is now providing continuous supplies of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) to business aviation customers, making it only the second company in Asia —following Jet Aviation Singapore—to do so.
All commercially sold SAF is currently blended with conventional jet fuel because pure SAF is not yet approved for use due to its lack of aromatic compounds, which help gaskets in the aircraft fuel system swell and maintain tight seals. HKBAC CEO Vivien Lau told AIN that the company is receiving a 5% SAF blend provided by a local fuel supplier and that it has been ‘very well received’ by customers.”
