Velocys was featured in The Daily Telegraph in an article about the future of sustainable aviation fuel: “How the biggest ever jet engine built by Rolls-Royce is paving the way for an era of low-cost green flying”.
The article explored Rolls Royce’s new UltraFan engine and its potential to narrow the cost of sustainable aviation fuel. The article shows that SAF, which requires minimal modification to existing jet engines and significantly reduces lifecycle carbon emissions, is the best answer to long haul air travel.
Velocys CEO Henrik Wareborn is quoted at length, explaining that whilst that SAF is more expensive than fossil jet fuel today, higher tax on fossil fuels and low tax on green fuels will change this: “You need to ask yourself what price should those burning fossil fuels that release a huge amount of CO2 into the atmosphere pay?”
SAF is becoming increasingly attractive to the airline industry as favourable policy-making in the US (Inflation Reduction Act of 2022) and EU (new EU deal on carbon border tax) incentivises SAF over polluting fossil fuels.
Velocys plc (VLS.L), the sustainable fuels technology company, announces that in addition to the £27m grant from the UK Department for Transport’s (“DfT”) Advanced Fuels Fund for the Altalto waste-to-SAF project, announced separately today, it has also been awarded a grant of £2.5 million from the same fund, to contribute its technology to an e-fuels project in the UK in collaboration with a number of new and existing partners (“E-Fuels Project”).
The Advanced Fuels Fund provides grants to support the development of commercial-scale SAF plants and has a specific total allocation of £22 million for the development of e-fuels projects. These are fuels produced using renewable (decarbonised) electricity rather than vegetable oils or waste.
The £2.5 million grant awarded to Velocys under this e-fuels allocation will be used in conjunction with the E-Fuels Project’s partners to conduct feasibility, technical validation, site selection and pre-FEED engineering for such a project, to make SAF from carbon dioxide and hydrogen, in the UK.
The E-Fuels Project, to be known as “e-Alto”, will be managed by Velocys, partners include Clariant Catalysts (“Clariant”), Technip Energies (“T.EN”) and British Airways.
The key objective of the Advanced Fuels Fund is to kick-start the UK advanced fuels sector with the commercial deployment of innovative fuel production technologies that are capable of significantly reducing UK aviation carbon dioxide emissions.
Henrik Wareborn, CEO, said:
“We are very pleased to have been awarded this grant as it reflects the capability of the Velocys technology use of different feedstocks, ability to attract world class partners, and access to a new project portfolio. Our IP-protected technology enables the production of synthetic liquid fuels such as SAF for the airline industry, from renewable power and CO2, as well as from sustainable waste and biomass. This award also shows strong commitment from the UK Government to accelerate the Department for Transport’s Jet Zero strategy for achieving net zero aviation by 2050.”

Significant non-dilutive project funding from UK Government Advanced Fuels Fund to advance UK Altalto Immingham reference project
Velocys plc (VLS.L), the sustainable fuels technology company, announces that its wholly owned subsidiary, Altalto Immingham Ltd., has been awarded a grant of up to £27 million from the UK Department for Transport’s (“DfT”) Advanced Fuels Fund for the Altalto Immingham Sustainable Aviation Fuel (“SAF”) project. The purpose of this project, which is being developed under an existing Joint Development Agreement between Velocys and British Airways PLC (“British Airways”) is to deliver a commercial waste-to-SAF plant in Immingham, UK. The grant will allow Altalto Immingham to deliver the Front-End Engineering Design (“FEED”) stage of the project.
The grant funding will be distributed over the grant period from December 2022 to March 2025 and is conditional upon receipt of private sector matched funding. Altalto Immingham has obtained Letters of Intent from a number of existing and new potential partners for the private-sector matched funding requirement with the first tranche of private funding due to be in place by April 2023.
Velocys’ cash contribution into the Altalto Immingham project over the two years from April 2023 is not expected to exceed £8 million, and this sum may be reduced by bringing in additional investors into the project.
The grant funding will be used for the completion of the project FEED, which will incorporate the technology packages of the licensors (including Velocys) and develop the basis for the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (“EPC”) contract. In parallel, the commercial agreements required to support the plant will be put in place. All of these will support the Final Investment Decision ahead of commencement of construction, which is targeted to occur in 2025, consistent with the UK Government’s ambition. In line with its commercial strategy, Velocys will charge license fees for the utilisation of its proprietary technology at commencement of construction. Based on this timing, commissioning of the Altalto Immingham project is expected to begin in 2027.
Velocys has previously received grants for the Altalto Immingham project of £1.7 million from the DfT’s Green Fuels, Green Skies competition and a series of grants totaling £934,000 from the Future Fuels for Flight and Freight competition, the predecessor to Green Fuels, Green Skies.
The £165 million Advanced Fuels Fund provides grants to support the development of commercial-scale SAF plants that are at an advanced stage, enabling them to become ready for investment and construction. The funding is aimed at achieving the UK Government’s stated ambition of having at least five commercial scale SAF plants under construction in the UK by 2025. The key objective of the Advanced Fuels Fund is to kick-start the UK advanced fuels sector with the commercial deployment of innovative fuel production technologies that are capable of significantly reducing near-term UK aviation carbon dioxide emissions.
“We are extremely pleased the UK Government has awarded Velocys this important grant which will deliver the FEED stage for our Altalto Immingham reference project accelerating the commercial deployment of Velocys’ technology and delivering cashflow. We welcome this clear commitment from Government to having commercial SAF plants built in the UK. We are delighted that a number of large commercial companies have indicated their support for the project through indications of matched funding contribution and the provision of services to progress the project.”

Bayou Fuels project will set new benchmark for carbon savings
Significantly improved negative carbon-intensity expected to be beneficial for planned project revenues and project financing.
Velocys plc (VLS.L), the sustainable fuels technology company, announces that its proposed facility Bayou Fuels in Natchez, Mississippi, US has been re-optimised for maximum decarbonisation to a negative carbon intensity of -375g CO2e/MJ (previously -144g CO2e/MJ); abating the carbon emissions from the equivalent of 1.1 million return economy trips from San Francisco to London per annum.
The significant improvement in negative carbon intensity has the potential to increase future revenue for Bayou Fuels and enhance the attractiveness of the project for third party project funding. In particular it will allow the Bayou Fuels project to derive maximum benefit from the 45Z tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which incentivises the total amount of avoided carbon instead of the volume of sustainable fuel supplied, thus prioritising those technologies which offer routes to negative carbon-intensity fuels. The Bayou Fuels project has a 15-year fixed price offtake agreement with Southwest Airlines, which together with a further MOU for a 10-year fixed price offtake account for in aggregate 100 per cent of the SAF produced and underwrites a floor on certain credits. Pursuant to the existing Southwest offtake agreement, each gallon of SAF generated by the project is expected to generate tradable greenhouse gas credits for which Southwest guarantees, with respect to the SAF sold to it, a minimum price payable to the project. The enhanced negative carbon intensity will increase the credits generated under the Inflation Reduction Act (“IRA”) and the California Low Carbon Fuel Standard, improving the revenue and economic profile of the project.
The Bayou Fuels project, when it enters production in 2026, will now use renewable energy derived from sustainable biomass power instead of solar power which will approximately double the carbon savings for its aviation customers, thereby enabling maximum carbon abatement from the Velocys conversion pathway. The Bayou Fuels SAF prospective carbon intensity of -375 g CO2e / MJ avoids more than 15 times as much CO2 as a typical HEFA SAF gallon from soybean oil.
Velocys carried out preliminary boiler engineering evaluations, identified the most appropriate carbon capture system, confirmed the availability of sustainable biomass and re-evaluated the layout of the overall facility in order to validate the use of biomass power at the plant.
Henrik Wareborn, CEO, said:
“The Inflation Reduction Act means that future SAF production must focus on the number of tonnes of avoided carbon and not gallons of fuel produced. The use of biogenic feedstock, biomass power and CCS at our project in Mississippi equates to a yearly reduction of 1.8 million tonnes of carbon and means our technology is ideally positioned to benefit from the SAF tax credits of the IRA.”

Legislation expected to underpin the financing of Velocys’ US sustainable aviation fuel reference project
Velocys plc (VLS.L), the sustainable fuels technology company, welcomes the passing of the “Inflation Reduction Act of 2022” by the US Congress in relation to key legislation tackling climate change. Velocys notes that the legislation is expected to be signed into law by President Biden shortly.
Subject to becoming law, this landmark piece of legislation allocates approximately $369 billion to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and incentivises expanded production and use of domestic clean energy. Sustainable Aviation Fuel (“SAF”) tax credits are an integral part of the Act, together with other incentives and mechanisms to accelerate the deployment of advanced fuel technologies, generating non-fossil fuels with a significantly reduced carbon intensity.
SAF is the only current commercially scalable decarbonisation route for the aviation sector. Multiple pathways to SAF production are needed to satisfy the aviation industry’s decarbonisation targets towards “net zero”. Velocys provides its clients with integrated IP-protected technology enabling the production of synthetic aviation fuel from a variety of sustainable feedstocks with ultra-low to negative carbon intensity.
The SAF tax credits and associated incentives are expected to underpin the financing of Bayou Fuels, Velocys’ advanced SAF reference project in Natchez, Mississippi, US. Bayou Fuels is a planned cellulosic biofuels plant enabling the production of carbon negative fuel through the use of biogenic feedstock, renewable power, and carbon sequestration. The biorefinery will convert 3,000 tons/day of woody biomass forestry residues into 36 million gallons/year (nameplate) of renewable transportation fuels, predominantly SAF, with a negative carbon intensity. The biofuels produced will adhere to both the US Renewable Fuel Standard (“RFS”) and the Low Carbon Fuels Standard (“LCFS”) and earn additional incentives via the associated Renewable Identification Number (“RIN”) and LCFS credits.
As announced in November 2021, Velocys has already secured long-term offtake arrangements for 100% of the SAF output expected from the Bayou Fuels facility with Southwest Airlines (a 15-year agreement) and IAG/British Airways (MOU for a 10-year agreement) avoiding 8.8 million tonnes of CO2 over the term of the off-takes. This new climate legislation is expected to allow finalisation of conversion of the MOU to a full offtake agreement.
This critical legislative development in the US follows last month’s launch by the UK Government’s Department for Transport of its Jet Zero Strategy, setting out the Government’s approach for achieving net zero aviation by 2050. This includes an ambition for a minimum of five commercial-scale SAF plants to be under construction in the UK by 2025, and a mandate for the equivalent of at least 10% SAF to be blended into conventional aviation fuel by 2030. Velocys and British Airways are jointly developing the Altalto project, which is to build a full scale plant in Immingham, UK, to make SAF from commercial and residential residual waste, in anticipation of UK policy incentives competitive with those announced by the US. Importantly, the UK mandate is to be expressed in terms of greenhouse gas reductions, rather than simple volume, which will benefit Altalto due to its ultra-low carbon intensity.
Henrik Wareborn, CEO, said:
“The legislation passed in the US is of historic significance, putting the United States on a path to lower its emissions significantly by 2030, and beyond. We believe this landmark legislation represents a compelling model which other governments will seek to follow, in particular in its focus on total amount of avoided carbon instead of volume of sustainable fuel supplied, thus prioritising those technologies which offer routes to negative carbon intensity fuels.
“This development, coupled with the UK’s launch of its Jet Zero strategy, represents a major endorsement of Sustainable Aviation Fuel, and Velocys’ proprietary technology to produce it.”
