In the Netherlands, SkyNRG said it is entering a partnership with Skellefteå Kraft under the name Project SkyKraft, which will further investigate the opportunity to produce SAF from renewable electricity and biogenic CO2, known as eSAF. eSAF from Project SkyKraft will support the EU’s decarbonization goals and further enhance Skellefteå’s position as Sweden’s hub for next-generation green industry, creating opportunities for the aviation industry to reach net zero emissions, said SkyNRG. The project has secured a site at the Port of Skellefteå, with a planned commencement around 2030. SkyKraft will contribute to the Municipality of Skellefteå’s sustainable development goals by decarbonizing aviation. The project is simultaneously expected to create approximately 100 skilled jobs in the energy transition sector. Joachim Nordin, CEO of Skellefteå Kraft, said: “We are excited to partner with SkyNRG on this pioneering project, showcasing the potential of eFuels for aviation. This aligns with our vision of advancing renewable energy and contributing to a sustainable and fossil free society. Northern Sweden has the ideal conditions and expertise to lead the energy transition, and we are proud to be part of it.”
