During a ribbon-cutting ceremony today, LanzaJet unveiled the world’s first ethanol-based alcohol-to-jet sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) commercial production plant in Soperton, GA. With the completion of this plant, LanzaTech, its subsidiary LanzaJet, Inc., and their partners, will optimize the process for producing sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and reduce the cost of producing jet fuel renewable ethanol.

New resources and 2024 Office Hours are available to help educators incorporate the Bioenergy Research and Education Bridge (BRIDGES) Program into their classroom curricula! The U.S. Department of Energy’s Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO), in collaboration with Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) and Idaho National Laboratory (INL), has developed a free bioenergy case study-based education curriculum that should take at least three classroom hours to complete.

Recognizing that the rail sector generates two percent of U.S. transportation emissions, the Department of Energy (DOE) has released a Request for Information (RFI) to understand applicable emissions reduction strategies. The purpose of t

The U.S. transportation sector, including cars, trucks, airplanes, ships, and trains, accounts for 34% of the nation’s emissions.

The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) hosted a two-day webinar series, Biocarbon Incorporation into Transportation Fuels via Co-processing in Refineries, to highlight the key takeaways from the Bio-oil Co-processing wi

NREL’s sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) from wet waste is produced using catalysts that build energy-dense hydrocarbons out of volatile fatty acids—made by fermenting wet waste in anaerobic digesters. The resulting SAF is compatible with existing jet engine

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has released a Request for Information (RFI) to better understand the challenges facing critical elements within Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) supply chains.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) awarded $23.6 million in funding to eight university and industry projects to develop biomass feedstocks to produce affordable biofuels and bioproducts that reduce emissions.
