New Delhi: India is set to host its first-ever Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) Conclave & Awards 2025 on September 15 at Hotel Le Méridien, New Delhi. Organized by the SAF Association (SAFA), the landmark event will serve as a high-level policy dialogue on clean aviation under the theme “Powering the Future of Sustainable Aviation.”

The conclave will bring together feedstock providers, fuel producers, airlines, technology developers, financiers, certifiers, and government agencies to chart India’s roadmap for green aviation. A special focus will be placed on the “Farm to Aviation Fuel Economy”, highlighting farmers’ role in building a sustainable supply chain for aviation fuel.

Key Highlights of the Conclave

  • India SAF Conclave 2025: First dedicated national platform on SAF policy, production, investment, and innovation.
  • India SAF Awards 2025: Recognition for pioneers in sustainable aviation—from startups and airlines to policymakers and technologists.
  • Farmer Integration: Emphasis on feedstock management and supply chain models that connect agriculture to green aviation.
  • Strategic Announcements: Signing of MoUs and collaborations across the SAF ecosystem.
  • Knowledge Papers: Insights by AFC India Ltd., Deloitte, ICF, and CBR Partners.
  • Global Participation: Over 75 speakers, 25+ countries, and 500+ delegates expected.

The conclave is backed by several ministries and initiatives, including LiFE (Lifestyle for Environment), Ministry of Environment, Ministry of Power, Ministry of New & Renewable Energy, Department of Science & Technology, and others. Leading organizations such as AFC India Ltd and international stakeholders are also partners in the event.

Leaders’ Voices on Green Aviation

  • Jimmy Olsson, President, SAF Association: “This Conclave is a declaration for green aviation. India is engineering a SAF ecosystem that’s clean, scalable, and powered by farmers—setting a global benchmark.”
  • Vijay Nirani, Senior VP, SAFA: “With the right vision and policy alignment, SAF can transform Indian aviation and make the country a hub for sustainable fuel in Asia.”
