If you’ve ever watched a project that looked fine—right up until it wasn’t…If you’ve sat in a conference room, staring at a set of numbers that no longer quite added up… If you’ve seen a deal that almost closed, a plant that almost ran, a company that almost made it……then you’ve seen this moment before. […]
The roses were already in bloom when the numbers landed.

It was something rarer in Washington: relief. Vindication. The unmistakable sense of a season turning. And then the announcement: the final “Set 2” […]
OCOchem was named a global finalist for the Best CO2 Utilization Innovation Award in 2026 for its pioneering Carbon FluX Electrolyzer Pilot Plant. The newsworthy core of their presentation is the commercial realization of the “Bio Formate Vision”.

It’s just past 11:30 p.m. on a cold April night, and the North Atlantic is flat as glass. On the bridge of the Titanic, the warnings have already come in—ice reports, coordinates, positions. Nothing dramatic. Nothing definitive. Just enough to know that something is out there, somewhere ahead. Below deck, the engines are still turning […]
Oberon Fuels highlights the necessity of maintaining “Molecular Flexibility” and “Market Flexibility” to build a sustainable business in the shifting renewable fuels landscape. The most newsworthy development is their launch of “AeroNu,” a renewable Dimethyl Ether (DME) aerosol propellant produced in partnership with Aeropres. Moving beyond their traditional focus on diesel replacement and propane blending, […]
This presentation from Poten&Partner’s Sarah Boisvert highlights Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) markets, technologies, and barriers. The most newsworthy aspect is the identification of the most significant barrier to SAF adoption: the notable imbalance between production costs and the price of conventional Jet-A fuel. It also details other market and technical barriers, including ASTM certification requirements, […]
He wakes before the sun, and for a moment everything feels possible. Then he tries to move. Nothing. A thousand tiny tensions hold him down—threads across the arms, cords at the ankles, pins in the fabric, stakes in the ground. Individually, they are laughable. Together, they hold. On his chest, committees have formed: one argues […]
SkyNRG is actively developing a diversified pipeline of commercial-scale Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) projects globally. The most newsworthy update is the progress on their scaling hubs, specifically “Project Wigeon” in Washington state, which targets a 50 million gallons per year (MGPY) SAF output. This facility capitalizes on avoiding methane emissions through Landfill Gas (LFG) and […]
