From the fields to the sky: strengthening Europe’s energy sovereignty with SAF! ✈️    Technip Energies, Airbus, Safran and Tereos are joining forces to create Rebound, a joint venture to develop a Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) production project at the Port of Dunkirk in Northern France.    Using the Alcohol-to-Jet pathway, the project aims to produce around 160,000 tons of SAF per year, which would make it one of the largest facilities of its kind in Europe.    Key factors behind this initiative:  ➡️ SAF is widely recognized as the main lever to decarbonize aviation   ➡️ Under the EU ReFuelEU Aviation regulation, SAF blending mandates will rise to 6% by 2030 and 70% by 2050   ➡️ These blending mandates are expected to drive an eightfold increase in SAF demand between 2030 and 2050   ➡️ The Alcohol-to-Jet pathway is emerging as a scalable and cost-competitive solution. It converts advanced ethanol, produced from agricultural and forestry residues, into a drop-in aviation fuel that can be blended with conventional jet fuel and used in existing engines and aircraft     In this project development phase, Technip Energies will act as the project’s lead developer and engineering service provider, bringing its expertise in technology scaling and complex project execution.   Read our press release: https://lnkd.in/dYfNaC2t   #TechnipEnergies #BePartOfTheSolution #SAF #Rebound
