Al Hajri said, “The success of the project under study, set

for implementation in July 2025, hinges on having the

necessary technology and essential materials within

Dubai Municipality to produce SAF. These materials

include waste and treat sewage water. The project will

also involve several investors and other supportive and

strategic partners.”

For his part, Al Falasi, Group CEO at ENOC, said, “As the

UAE aims to supply 1% of fuel to national airlines at UAE

airports using locally produced SAF by 2031, this

through innovative processes and the use of green

energy. Through this partnership, we will work closely

with Dubai Municipality to transform sustainable

feedstocks such as municipal solid waste to produce SAF

at scale. In addition to reducing the aviation industry’s

carbon footprint, this collaboration will also help to

promote a circular economy that focuses on recycling.

At ENOC, we recognise the critical role that SAF plays in

reducing carbon emissions drastically and will continue
