SABA members to buy SAFc from Infinium Energy’s Project Atlas

In Washington, the Sustainable Aviation Buyers Alliance (SABA) announced commitments from members to purchase sustainable aviation fuel certificates (SAFc) associated with Infinium Energy’s Project Atlas, an eSAF facility expected to produce approximately 100,000 metric tons of SAF annually, providing the long-term structured contracts that are catalytic to securing project financing.

The groundbreaking results of SABA’s latest procurement were supported by leading member organizations, including AVEVA, Bain & Company, Google, McKinsey, and others, and mark an important addition to SABA’s market model. Through exclusive focus on supporting projects toward final investment decision, this procurement represents a first-ever application of SABA’s approach to drive new production of highly scalable, high-integrity SAF. Infinium submitted its winning proposal jointly with American Airlines, which will take physical delivery of the fuel and oversee fuel logistics. Contracted volumes under these agreements are expected to support greenhouse gas abatement of over 212,000 mtCO2e, equivalent to the emissions of over 3,500 JFK to LAX commercial flights.
