Global Bioenergies delivers a batch of SAF for tests commissioned by the French government

November 16, 2022 |

In France, Global Bioenergies said it has delivered a 200-liter batch of sustainable aviation fuel for tests commissioned as part of the GENOPTAIRE project funded by the French government defense procurement and technology agency (DGA).

The project, which forms part of the ministry’s defense energy strategy, seeks to promote technological advances in the design and use of military platforms making use of electric-powered transport and alternative fuels.

One of the aims of the GENOPTAIRE project is to identify and assess the impact of bio-sourced components mixed with conventional aviation fuels on engine performance in land vehicles used by the French Army.

Marc Delcourt, CEO of Global Bioenergies said: “Having our products assessed by the French Army is a major step forward in our trajectory. We imagine that converting local feedstocks into both civil and military transportation fuels could be of strategic interest for the country.”
