In the UK, Fuel Cells Works reported that Masdar and Tadweer Group announced the signing of a Joint Development Agreement (JDA).
This agreement aims to progress the development of the first commercial-scale Waste-to-Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) project in Abu Dhabi, according to the report.
Located in Abu Dhabi, the plant will covert around 500,000 tons of waste into SAF per year, using a hybrid production pathway that combines renewable energy-powered electrolysis producing green hydrogen and waste gasification turning syngas into SAF through various proven chemical processes, according to the report.
Once operational, the project is expected to serve multiple markets, positioning Abu Dhabi as a regional hub for SAF and supporting the decarbonization of a sector that accounted for over 18 percent of the UAE’s GDP in 2023, according to IATA data.
