In North Carolina, Honeywell announced that Acelen Renewables has selected its Ecofining technology to help support the efficient production of a targeted 20,000 barrels per day of sustainable aviation fuel and renewable diesel. The fuels will be processed at Acelen’s facility in Bahia, Brazil, from a blend of inedible seed and waste oils. With this […]
In Georgia, LanzaJet announced the opening of the LanzaJet Freedom Pines Fuels, an ethanol to sustainable aviation fuel production facility. The company noted that this ethanol-based technology is the world’s first viable next-generation SAF technology capable of scaling production to the levels needed to decarbonize aviation through widely available and sustainable feedstock and emerging commercial […]
In Ireland, responding to the pressing need to decarbonize aviation, a world-class team of aviation, Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and climate experts, are creating a faster path to reach net-zero goals. Future Energy Global launched an innovative financial ecosystem to accelerate the production and uptake of SAF. To reach net zero, SAF production needs to […]
In California, Sugar Valley Energy intends to produce Sustainable Aviation Fuel for the airline industry. The project could produce up to 61 million gallons of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) annually. The move will help address a key objective of the aviation industry, which aims to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2050. The adoption of […]
In Sweden, Topsoe has signed a licensing and engineering agreement with Preem, Sweden’s largest fuel company, to produce Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and renewable diesel, using Topsoe’s HydroFlex technology. The demand for SAF is rapidly growing. According to the International Energy Agency’s Net Zero Scenario, over 10% of fuel consumption in aviation by 2030 needs to be SAF to stay on course for net zero […]
Balance your risks and rewards,” advises Topsoe’s Henrik Guldberg Petersen at ABLC Next 2023 in San Francisco, addressing the challenges of feedstock as a very scarce resource, making every carbon atom count for lower CI; the challenges of process operational robustness, and continuous optimization of operations; plus, the opportunities in 100% SAF going through approvals, […]
In Belgium, one year ago, Brussels Airport announced the first delivery of sustainable aviation fuel via the NATO pipeline. However, the high price of SAF remains an obstacle and slows down its use by airlines. To accelerate the sustainable development of the aviation sector and encourage the use of sustainable fuel, Brussels Airport Company, thanks […]
In Texas, Infinium and Breakthrough Energy Catalyst recently announced a $75 million project equity investment commitment to support Infinium’s Project Roadrunner, subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions. Project Roadrunner will convert waste carbon dioxide (CO2) and renewable power into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and other low-carbon fuels. This first-of-a-kind commercial-scale Power-to-Liquids (PtL) eFuels […]
In France, the Air France-KLM Group’s airlines will have incorporated around 80,000 metric tons of SAF in 2023– nearly double the amount in 2022 – making the group the world’s largest SAF user for the second year in a row. Throughout the year, the Group continued to secure future SAF supplies to meet its target […]
In the UK, Wizz Air recently announced a £5 million investment in a biofuel company, Firefly. This is Wizz Air’s first equity investment in sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) research and development. The partnership with Firefly will allow the airline to supply SAF to its UK operations from 2028, up to 525,000 metric tons over 15 years. […]
