LanzaJet Freedom Pines Fuels
Green fuels technology major & SAF supplier LanzaJet has announced that as part of New York Climate week, LanzaJet and the USA’s oil and gas company, KMG have signed an agreement to advance the America’s first sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) project and a first for LanzaJet in deploying its leading Alcohol-to-Jet (ATJ) technology in the region. LanzaJet CEO Jimmy Samartzis spoke in front of an audience that included both the President of Kazakhstan, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev and the Chairman and CEO KMG.
KMG and LanzaJet recently completed a joint feasibility study, and have agreed to move to the next phase of project development – Front-End Engineering and Design (FEED), during which all technical and economic solutions for construction of the plant will be finalized.
“Kazakhstan is the type of market that creates incredible potential across industries – agriculture, logistics, oil and gas, and aviation. Our collaboration at LanzaJet with KMG sets in motion regional leadership to advance lower carbon flight and decarbonization of aviation, economic development for the country, and energy security for the region,” said Jimmy Samartzis.
“This collaboration represents a significant contribution to strengthening bilateral cooperation and will support our low-carbon development goals and the deployment of cutting-edge technologies. Overall, the project will positively impact the development of the biofuels market, improve the environmental performance of the aviation sector, and enhance Kazakhstan’s transit potential,” stated Askhat Khassenov, KMG.
The next phase of the project is set to get underway immediately following the signing of the agreement and the project is expected to support the anticipated SAF demand in Kazakhstan that is likely to hit 70,000 tonnes annually by 2030.
LanzaJet has been on the forefront of biofuels development across the world. The company is credited with launching world’s first ethanol to SAF production facility last year. It has also brought CirculAir technology which is a new joint offering to convert waste, carbon and renewable power into SAF.
