In the UK, The Business Desk reported that up to 850 jobs could be created in an investment by US-based consortium, GRAMM, in the Royal Port of Barrow. The collaborative industry consortium has applied to the UK Advanced Fuels Fund, for support to accelerate its SAF project, according to the report. Alexander Peschkoff, GRAMM consortium lead, said: “Advanced Fuels Fund support will propel UK sustainable aviation forward. Meeting a significant part of the UK aviation sector’s net zero obligations will establish GRAMM as a leading sustainable aviation fuel producer. This project also proves that decarbonization can tackle climate challenges while driving regional economic growth.” The proposed location for the project is the Royal Port of Barrow, for which Associated British Ports (ABP) announced an ambitious development masterplan to create an advanced engineering cluster.
