ZeroAvia announced a development collaboration with Alaska Air Group, the parent company of Alaska Airlines, for a hydrogen-electric powertrain capable of flying 76-seat regional aircraft in excess of 500 NM. capable of transporting 76 passengers. ZeroAvia will set up a location in the Seattle area to support this initiative.
The resulting methanol would be blended with crude and transported via the trans-Alaska oil pipeline to Valdez, where it would be extracted from the oil and processed via Methanol-to-Gasoline technology into gasoline. billion cubic feet, bcf) were converted to gasoline, it would produce 450,000 barrels per day, he suggested.
Through the first-of-its-kind agreement, Twelve, Alaska, and Microsoft will work to advance production and use of Twelve’s E-Jet, a low-carbon jet fuel produced by a power-to-liquids process leveraging the company’s carbon transformation technology. SAF is a core part of Alaska’s five-part pathway to net zero by 2040. Earlier post.).
Gevo has signed a strategic alliance agreement with Alaska Airlines to purchase Gevo’s renewable jet fuel and fly the first commercial flight on alcohol-to-jet fuel (ATJ). Once approved, this fuel can be seamlessly integrated into the distribution infrastructure and onto commercial aircraft. Earlier post.).
This approval prepares the way for the use of Gevo ATJ—as well as ATJ-SPK fuels produced by other manufacturers—in commercial operations. As previously announced, Alaska Airlines is now poised to fly the first commercial test flight using Gevo’s renewable ATJ-SPJ fuel. Earlier post.)
The center will focus on the test flight and certification of Universal Hydrogen’s retrofit conversion of a Dash-8 regional turboprop aircraft, scheduled for entry into commercial service in 2025. Earlier post.).
has completed production of the world’s first cellulosic renewable jet fuel that is specified for commercial flights. Gevo successfully adapted its patented technologies to convert cellulosic sugars derived from wood waste into renewable isobutanol, which was then further converted into Gevo’s Alcohol-to-Jet fuel (ATJ) fuel.
Alaska Native corporation Cook Inlet Region Inc. Laurus Energy have formed Stone Horn Ridge LLC, a company created to commercialize syngas from underground coal gasification (UCG). The Anchorage, Alaska-based joint venture is developing syngas for power generation, synthetic liquid fuels and other industrial applications.
In the first phase of development, Praj worked with Gevo’s technology using sugar cane and molasses feedstocks, undertaking test-runs in order to develop a process design package that will now be offered for commercialization to cane juice and molasses-based ethanol plants, as licensees of Gevo’s isobutanol technology.
The Dynamic Fuels plant, which has been in operation for more than a year, is designed to convert non-food feedstocks such as algal oil, animal fats, and greases into renewable fuels. This contract clearly demonstrates that we’re building momentum for the continued commercialization of advanced renewable fuels production here in the US.
The design is scalable from a community size (kW) to utility level (multi-MW), making HydroMINE immediately commercially relevant. A novel power conversion mechanism converts the oscillatory motion of the foils to unidirectional rotary motion to harvest the energy. University of Alaska Fairbanks. University of Washington.
The US Department of Energy (DOE) has selected 27 projects for more than $37 million in funding to accelerate the technological and commercial readiness of emerging marine and hydrokinetic (MHK) technologies, which seek to generate renewable electricity from oceans and free-flowing rivers and streams. Total Project Value: $300,000.
Prototype testing is essential to gather critical performance data to address technical risks, lower costs, and inform future designs to accelerate the commercialization and deployment of mass-produced wave energy technologies.
When converted to energy, that could fuel about 10% of the nation’s annual transportation needs. The WHOI-lead project teams will collaborate with a third MARINER project awarded to a team led by the University of Alaska Fairbanks. The MARINER program addresses a critical challenge that land production systems are unlikely to solve.
Total is planning to convert its La Mede, France, refinery to HVO production, and there are four other renewable diesel projects also underway. Alaska Airlines, KLM, and United Airlines have demonstrated the use of HEFA biojet fuel on commercial flights since 2011. This use of a common fuel simplifies logistics.
Three projects will increase the survivability of wave energy converters, addressing the challenges of designing MHK energy systems to operate in the ocean environment for years: Dehlsen Associates is developing a wave energy converter (WEC) comprising multiple pods that use common components to achieve economies of scale.
The testing included several commercial airplane engine types using blends of up to 50% petroleum-based Jet A/Jet A-1 fuel and 50% sustainable biofuels. Billy Glover, managing director of Environmental Strategy for Boeing Commercial Airplanes. They will not require any changes to existing commercial jet engines. Earlier post.).
announced a development in its fermentation technology that will allow it to produce isobutanol from cellulosic feedstocks such as wood waste; the isobutanol can then be converted into Gevo’s alcohol-to-jet fuel. The next two milestones for renewable jet fuel are the approval by ASTM and the scheduled commercial test flights.
path” to help overcome key commercial and sustainability challenges and speed fuel production. In support of these test flights, Honeywell UOP used a tolling facility to produce Honeywell Green Jet Fuel that was blended with commercial and military aviation jet fuel in a 50-50 blend for the flights. —SAFN report. Recommendations.
Five new airlines have been accepted as members of the Sustainable Aviation Fuel Users Group ( SAFUG ), an airline-led industry working group focused on accelerating the development and commercialization of sustainable aviation fuels: Alaska Airlines, British Airways, Cathay Pacific, TUIfly and Virgin Blue. Earlier post.).
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is awarding $125 million in five separate contracts to Boeing, General Electric, Honeywell, Pratt & Whitney, and Rolls-Royce-North America to develop and demonstrate technologies that will reduce commercial jet fuel consumption, emissions and noise. Earlier post.). General Electric.
Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities. The Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities will receive funding to purchase battery electric buses, associated charging infrastructure and a back-up generator to maintain bus service in a disaster situation. Description. 54,992,016.
The Energy Commission also approved almost $16 million in research grants to help develop the next generation of energy efficient technologies for commercial and residential buildings; $11 million for projects to convert feedstock and waste into biofuels; and about $900,000 for natural gas innovations.
Since 2020 Toyota and mining giant BHP have been testing a LandCruiser 70-Series converted to electricity by Tembo e-LV locally. That has since changed as the company turned its focus to its commercial vehicles. But by 2025 he intends to have three more vehicles on-sale including the Alaska ute.
One of these is Westwater Resources, which controls what it says is the second-biggest graphite deposit in the US (the biggest is in a remote region of Alaska). In our case, the resulting feedstock material will be conveniently trucked 30 minutes up the road to our Kellyton processing plant to be converted into battery-grade anode material.
Ground stations in California and Alaska received the data and then sent the tapes to the Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland for processing. Today’s commercial high-resolution satellites can have a resolution of 30 centimeters. MSS was clearly the winning technology. ERTS had a spatial resolution of 80 meters.
