Energy company: Uniper secures large quantities of eco-aircraft fuel
Take green electricity, hydrogen and CO2 and turn them into kerosene: that's sustainable aviation fuel. This is set to happen on a large scale in Denmark in a few years.
Uniper, a German energy company, has agreed to purchase 40,000 tonnes of sustainable aviation fuel per year from US-based Arcadia eFuels for over ten years. The fuel, also known as eSAF, will be produced in a plant in Vordingborg, Denmark, with a capacity of 80,000 tonnes per year. The agreement is one of the largest announced so far and will help Uniper meet EU regulations requiring an increasing proportion of climate-friendly fuels at EU airports.
Deliveries are set to begin in the early 2030s, and the fuel is expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 98% compared to conventional aviation fuel.
