Uniper and Sasol ecoFT continue to develop SkyFuelH2
In Germany, Uniper and Sasol ecoFT said they will enter the next phase of the SkyFuelH2 project, a plant for production of sustainable aviation fuel in Sweden.
The two companies said they have jointly applied for funding from the Swedish Energy Agency for the next phase of development and to the EU Innovation Fund for overall project funding.
Uniper said that the final decision on the award is likely to be received during the next study phase.
In SkyFuelH2, biomass and renewable hydrogen feedstock will be combined using Sasol’s proprietary Fischer-Tropsch technology to produce SAF on an industrial scale. The biomass comes from processed forestry residues.
The ambition is to begin construction of the SkyFuelH2 facility in 2025, subject to achieving final investment decision, and potentially supplying the aviation industry with sustainable aviation fuel as early as 2028, the partners said.
