In Washington, Reuters reports the Treasury Department is set to approve the use of the GREET model for calculating feedstock greenhouse gas emissions this week that would allow corn-based ethanol to qualify as a pathway for proposed tax breaks for Sustainable Aviation Fuel under the Inflation Reduction Act. Sources said the department is expected to […]
In France, VINCI Airports, operator of Saint-Nazaire Montoir airport, and TotalEnergies have joined forces to make sustainable aviation fuel available at the airport platform. The biofuel (before mixing) is produced in France by TotalEnergies from waste and residues from the circular economy, such as used cooking oils. In its pure state, this biofuel allows a […]
In Switzerland, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) announced estimates for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) production. In 2023, SAF volumes reached over 600 million liters (0.5Mt), double the 300 million liters (0.25 Mt) produced in 2022. SAF accounted for 3% of all renewable fuels produced, with 97% of renewable fuel production going to other sectors. […]
In the UK, Air Liquide Engineering & Construction has been awarded an engineering package by Alfanar to support the development of the Lighthouse Green Fuels project located in Teesside, UK. The Lighthouse Green Fuels project is one of the first projects underway in the UK aiming to convert biogenic and non-biogenic solid wastes and residues […]
DG Fuels is an emerging leader in renewable hydrogen and biogenic based, synthetic low emissions aviation and diesel fuel, and this deck looks at their second-generation cellulosic biofuel and their market expansion plans, whose hydrogen content is derived from water electrolysis and uses a Fischer Tropsch based process with 96% carbon feedstock conversion efficiency and […]
In Australia, during the Williamtown Air Show in Australia, the Roulettes, the Royal Australian Air Force’s aerobatic display team, performed a first public display using Neste MY Sustainable Aviation Fuel. This is an important first step for the Australian Defence Force (ADF) as it looks at how it can reduce its environmental impact by using […]
In Texas, Topsoe has signed licensing and engineering agreements with Santa Maria to develop a project, focusing on the production of renewable fuels from various renewable feedstocks. The proposed project, located in East Texas, plans to produce a combination of renewable diesel and SAF at a production capacity of 3,000 bbl/d. The project will contribute […]
