Sustainable aviation fuel production facility, US
Name of the Project
Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production facility.
Location
World Energy’s renewable fuel facility in Paramount, California, in the US.
Project Owner/s
World Energy, Air Products and Honeywell.
Project Description
The facility is World Energy’s first commercial-scale and North America’s only SAF production facility. SAFs are nonpetroleum-based aviation fuels that are largely produced from biobased feedstocks. They are chemically comparable to conventional jet fuel, but are obtained from alternative feedstocks.
The project entails the expansion of the production and distribution hub to about 129-million litres a year.
By 2050, it is expected to produce fuels that will displace over 76-million tonnes of carbon dioxide. It also includes the construction of a new hydrogen plant that will be connected to Air Products’ existing Southern California hydrogen pipeline system.

Capital Expenditure
