India's ISMA Partners with TERI and PRAJ Industries to Boost Sustainable Bioenergy Solutions in Aviation
Key Ideas
  • ISMA collaborates with TERI and PRAJ Industries to promote sustainable bioenergy solutions like SAF, bioethanol, biogas, green bio-hydrogen, and green methanol.
  • The partnership aims to strengthen India's bio-economy and low-carbon energy infrastructure while aligning with sustainability targets.
  • ISMA's initiatives target blending one percent SAF with aviation fuel by 2027 and 5% by 2030, contributing to reducing the sector's carbon footprint.
  • The collaboration emphasizes leveraging bagasse, a byproduct of the sugarcane industry, for SAF production, offering an environmentally friendly solution to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
The Indian Sugar & Bio Energy Manufacturers Association (ISMA) has signed Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) with The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) and PRAJ Industries to promote sustainable bioenergy solutions in India, particularly in the aviation sector. The collaboration focuses on advancing Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), bioethanol, biogas, green bio-hydrogen, and green methanol. The partnership aims to enhance India's bio-economy and low-carbon energy infrastructure by facilitating knowledge exchange, policy development, and capacity building. ISMA's initiatives align with India's sustainability targets, including blending SAF with aviation fuel to reduce carbon emissions. Furthermore, the collaboration emphasizes utilizing bagasse, a byproduct of the sugarcane industry, for SAF production, offering a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution. ISMA's Director General, Deepak Ballani, highlighted the importance of the collaboration in promoting sustainable energy solutions in aviation and positioning India as a global leader in bioenergy production. The partnership reflects a commitment to a greener future and addresses the urgent need for alternatives to traditional jet fuel in the aviation industry.
