Tomorrow is International Civil Aviation Day, a time to recognize the vital role aviation plays in connecting people, cultures, and economies worldwide. At LanzaJet, we’re proud to contribute to the evolution of this dynamic industry, helping shape a more sustainable and prosperous future through innovative solutions like Sustainable Aviation Fuel (#SAF).    As we celebrate this day, we honor the progress made and the exciting opportunities ahead to ensure aviation continues to inspire and unite.    We want to thank our incredible investors and partners — Airbus, All Nippon Airways, British Airways, Groupe ADP, LanzaTech, Microsoft, Mitsui & Co., Ltd., MUFG, Shell, Southwest Airlines, and Suncor — for their continued support of our company and the SAF industry. Your commitment drives the progress we celebrate today.    Happy International Civil Aviation Day from all of us at LanzaJet

LanzaJet congratulates the honorable Heidi Alexander MP on her new role as Secretary of State for the Department for Transport (DfT), United Kingdom. We look forward to working with the Secretary of State and the Department on the implementation of the UK's landmark SAF Mandate, as we progress with our Project Speedbird, a 102m litre SAF production facility in the North East of England we are leading in partnership with British Airways and Nova Pangaea Technologies. The UK is on the cusp of becoming a world leader in SAF and we look forward to working with the Department on making these ambitions a reality. #SAF #aviation

This Thanksgiving, as millions travel to be with loved ones during the busiest travel week of the year, we’re reminded of the vital role aviation plays in connecting people, families, and communities.     At LanzaJet, we’re deeply grateful for the dedication of our team, the support of our partners, and the milestones we’ve shared together this year, which bring us closer to a more sustainable future for aviation.     From all of us at LanzaJet, Happy Thanksgiving! We hope your celebrations are filled with joy, gratitude, and safe travels.     #Thanksgiving #travel #airtravel #aviation  

LanzaJet celebrates the signing of the UK Sustainable Aviation Fuel (#SAF) mandate into law, reaffirming the UK's commitment to decarbonizing aviation. The mandate sets binding targets requiring 10% of all jet fuel to be sustainable by 2030 and rising to 22% by 2040.    The mandate is a critical enabler for the UK SAF market and supports our joint Project Speedbird with British Airways and Nova Pangaea Technologies, which will play a key role in meeting these targets. By introducing a cap on HEFA feedstocks in the coming years and encouraging the development of advanced fuels, the mandate ensures the growth of a diverse and resilient SAF supply chain.    As a global leader in SAF, LanzaJet values the UK’s bold steps to accelerate SAF innovation and market development. This mandate not only strengthens the UK’s aviation sector but also sets an example for countries worldwide seeking to address energy security, drive economic growth, and reduce aviation emissions. We are proud to work alongside policymakers and industry leaders to help achieve these ambitions through SAF projects like Project Speedbird.    #sustainability #cleanfuels #cleanenergy #economicdevelopment #transportation #aviation #SomedayIsNow 

We are thrilled to share that LanzaJet was honored with the Climate Champion Award at the 23rd Annual Chicago Innovation Awards. This recognition celebrates our work in advancing Sustainable Aviation Fuel (#SAF) and our commitment to creating a more sustainable future for aviation.    The Chicago Innovation Awards shine a spotlight on the most groundbreaking organizations in the Chicagoland area, recognizing achievements across sectors that drive progress and create meaningful change. To be acknowledged among this year’s incredible group of innovators is both humbling and energizing.    At LanzaJet, innovation is at the heart of everything we do. From building the world’s first ethanol-to-SAF biorefinery to scaling our Alcohol-to-Jet technology through global partnerships, we are focused on addressing some of the most pressing challenges of our time—reducing aviation emissions, enabling energy security, and driving economic development.    We are proud to contribute to Chicago’s vibrant innovation ecosystem and grateful for this recognition. Our deepest thanks to Luke Tanen, the Chicago Innovation Awards team, and to everyone who continues to support our journey to decarbonize aviation.

Exciting development in Sustainable Aviation Fuel (#SAF)!    Air New Zealand and LanzaJet have unveiled promising findings from our joint study on the feasibility of producing SAF and renewable diesel in New Zealand. The study highlights that using woody waste residues and low-value exported wood products as feedstocks can meet a quarter of New Zealand’s domestic aviation fuel needs, with a potential lifecycle emissions reduction of over 70% compared to fossil jet fuel. At the heart of this study is the CirculAir™ process, our joint solution with LanzaTech, which can convert nearly any source of waste carbon into ethanol and then into SAF.    Our new study reveals that SAF development in New Zealand not only enhances fuel security and supports the country’s emissions goals, but it also offers significant economic benefits, including the creation of regional jobs and contributing hundreds of millions of dollars to the economy.    Realizing this potential requires the right policy environment to attract needed investment. We’re committed to working with Air New Zealand and other stakeholders to build the necessary ecosystem for SAF production in Aotearoa. We look forward to continuing this important work and exploring additional feedstocks, like municipal solid waste, to further strengthen SAF production in the region.    Read more about our new study in the New Zealand Herald: https://lnkd.in/g8ZXp-g5 #sustainability #cleanenergy #circulareconomy #energysecurity #forestry #ethanol #aviation #NewZealand 

Reps. Brad Schneider (IL-10), Dan Kildee (MI-08), and Julia Brownley (CA-26) have introduced a new bill to expand the clean fuel production credit under Section 45Z, furthering the push to decarbonize aviation through sustainable fuels. LanzaJet CEO Jimmy Samartzis provided a statement applauding the leadership of Reps. Schneider, Kildee, and Brownley, emphasizing the importance of tax incentives in driving domestic investment in Sustainable Aviation Fuel (#SAF). “SAF is the single most important method to decarbonize aviation in the coming decades, and LanzaJet applauds the leadership of Representatives Schneider, Kildee, and Brownley in advancing SAF tax incentives that will catalyze domestic investment in this critical sector. As the original sponsors of the IRA’s SAF Blender’s Tax Credit via the Sustainable Skies Act, Reps Schneider, Kildee, and Brownley continue to lay the foundation for a vibrant U.S. SAF industry by providing for ten years of policy certainty for domestic SAF producers via this important bill. We look forward to continuing to work with Representatives Schneider, Kildee, and Brownley to develop policy proposals that will both extend and enhance the IRA’s short term SAF tax credits and enable achievement of the goals of the SAF Grand Challenge.”    Read Representative Schneider's press release here: https://lnkd.in/gbdYS6vw #sustainability #cleanfuel #aviation #IRA #45Z #SAFGrandChallenge 

Our UK and EU teams came together in London last week, highlighting our global expansion! As LanzaJet continues to grow across Europe and the UK, our team is working to advance critical projects like Speedbird, which will play a pivotal role in scaling Sustainable Aviation Fuel (#SAF) production in the region.    SAF is a global solution to a global challenge. To decarbonize aviation, we need collaboration across borders, industries, and governments. With ongoing projects in the UK, France, and beyond, our growing team is on the ground driving the energy transition forward by building the foundation for sustainable fuel production.    From policy advocacy to collaborating with partners, our growing presence in the UK and EU underscores our commitment to creating lasting solutions that address aviation’s climate impact.    Exciting times ahead for our UK and EU teams: Stephane Thion, Mohamed El Akroute, Sophia Haywood Ronnie Maddox, Richard Marsh, Daniel Bloch, Annie Mfula, Murad Yusuf, and David Wrigley.    #sustainability #climate #climatetech #cleanenergy #aviation #UK #Europe #SomedayIsNow
