Navigator Terminals and alfanar to scope UK’s first SAF terminal

In the UK, Navigator Terminals and alfanar will enter a joint Front-End-Engineering-Design (FEED) study in 2023 to determine the key scope for the UK’s first Sustainable Aviation Fuel handling terminal that will be located on North Tees to transport feedstock and handle the production volumes from the innovative alfanar facility.

The Lighthouse Green Fuels (LGF) project, backed by alfanar, will see approximately 1 million tonnes of non-recyclable waste converted into Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) at the facility which is to be deployed on Teesside. SAF produced at the plant has the potential to reduce emissions by up to 80% and the plant will produce >125,000 metric tons of SAF annually from 2028 (equivalent to >165 million liters per annum).
