🛩️ Lydian just raised $43M to make jet fuel out of thin air.

The Boston startup converts captured CO2 and hydrogen into drop-in sustainable aviation fuel using their PIVOT platform. It claims 95% lower lifecycle emissions than conventional jet fuel.

The Series A was led by Breakthrough Energy Ventures through a fund backed by 15 airlines. The round also includes AP Ventures, Builders Vision, Congruent Ventures, Galvanize, Grok Ventures, Overture, Union Square Ventures, and Voyager Ventures.

A pilot plant is already running in Boston (30 tonnes/year). Demo plant targeted for 2028, commercial scale by 2030.

The timing matters: the Iran war and Strait of Hormuz closure exposed how dependent jet fuel supply is on a single chokepoint. The EU imports 90%+ of its jet fuel crude.

Can India meet its 2027 Sustainable Aviation Fuel target without making air travel more expensive? https://english.mathrubhumi.com/news/money/india-saf-roadmap-corsia-2027-swfld6m0?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #SAF #SustainableAviationFuel #Aviation #IndiaAviation #AirTravel

@tazgetroete das Geld sollte zuerst in den Ausbau europäischer Bahnverbindungen gehen. #SAF sind auch wichtig, bringen aber zuwenig Emissionsminderung.

Twelve’s AirPlant One, America’s first commercial E-Jet fuel plant, starts up in Washington state.

Why does #twelve_co2 call it AirPlant, when they use CO2 from digester biogas, rather than #CO2 from direct air capture #DAC?

NOTE: they use Plug #PlugPowerInc hydrogen electrolyzers!

India’s aviation sector is heading towards a major green transition From ticket prices to airport infrastructure, Sustainable Aviation Fuel could reshape the future of flying in India https://english.mathrubhumi.com/features/specials/india-sustainable-aviation-fuel-saf-policy-airlines-air-travel-airports-carbon-emissions-v45usga2?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #Aviation #SAF #India #Airlines #SustainableTravel

Despite #aviation ✈️ and #palmoil industry #greenwashing, #climate experts predict “Sustainable” Aviation Fuel or #SAF will flush gigatonnes of rainforest #carbon into the sky. We demand better! #Boycottpalmoil #Boycott4Wildlife 🌴 🔥🚫 @palmoildetect

Syntholene wants to use Icelandic geothermal heat + @dynelectro solid oxide electrolyzer to make green hydrogen for cheap sustainable aviation fuel #SAF.
Húsavík brine is 120C/248F, @syntholene might make 110C/230F steam, & is a far cry from the #SOEC 750C operating temperature!
