Singapore, 19 February 2026 – Asia Sustainable Aviation Fuel Association (ASAFA) is pleased to welcome Topsoe, a leading global provider of advanced technology and solutions for the energy transition and developer of sustainable fuels, as its newest member.

With over 80 years of scientific innovation and technological leadership, Topsoe provides advanced catalysts, process-technology, and electrolysis solutions that enable the production of clean fuels — including SAF, renewable diesel, e-fuels, hydrogen-based fuels, and low-carbon chemicals — from renewable feedstocks and green hydrogen.

Fabrice Espinosa, CEO of ASAFA, commented, “We are pleased to welcome Topsoe as a member of our initiative to advance SAF production and adoption across Asia-Pacific. As a global leader in SAF technologies, offering a comprehensive portfolio of solutions for HEFA, Alcohol-to-Jet, Fischer-Tropsch, and Power-to-Liquid pathways, enabling the conversion of diverse feedstocks such as biomass, CO₂, and H2 into sustainable fuels. Their extensive expertise and commitment to global energy transition and sustainable mobility will be instrumental in driving progress toward decarbonizing aviation in the region.”

Yassir Ghiyati, CCO at Topsoe, said, “We’re proud to join ASAFA and to advocate for SAF in APAC. Topsoe is fully committed to supporting the region, and we have the technologies ready to support all possible pathways to produce SAF. SAF is already introduced across the region, but we want to further push deployment to help decarbonize the region’s aviation sector.”

Topsoe’s recent launch of a large-scale Solid Oxide Electrolyzer Cell (SOEC) manufacturing facility, with an annual capacity of 500 MW (with the option to scale further), underscores its commitment to support green hydrogen production and enable Power-to-X (PtX) fuel pathways crucial for aviation, maritime, and industrial decarbonization.
