Essar Group and Fulcrum BioEnergy have announced GBP 600 million waste-to-fuel plant in North West of England that will convert non-recyclable household waste into aviation fuel for use by airlines
This innovative bio-refinery will convert several hundred thousand tonne of pre-processed waste, which will have otherwise been destined for incineration or landfill, into approximately 100 million ltr of low carbon sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) annually
The project will use Fulcrum BioEnergy's proven waste-to-fuel process, which is already being deployed at its pioneering facility outside of Reno, Nevada in the US, where operations are due to begin later in 2021
Essar Oil (UK) has joined forces with Fulcrum BioEnergy (Fulcrum) and Essar's subsidiary company Stanlow Terminals to create a new facility that will convert non-recyclable household waste into SAF for use by airlines operating at the UK airports
The development will see Fulcrum BioEnergy, whose parent is based in California, US, construct, own and operate the plant within Essar's Stanlow Manufacturing Complex in North West of England
Essar Group will assist with blending and supply the new SAF to airlines, with Stanlow Terminals providing product storage and logistics solutions for the project under a long-term agreement.
The Fulcrum venture will complement Essar's wider plans to build a green energy industrial cluster at the Stanlow site
