US President Donald Trump’s efforts to dismantle the former Biden administration’s net-zero policies have already forced one US sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) producer to change its plant’s name and have now dispatched another across the Atlantic. SAF developer Green Renewable Aviation Maritime & Mobility (Gramm) has just relocated its 250,000 metric ton per year (83 million gallon per year) very low-carbon SAF project from Baton Rouge, Louisiana in the US to the Royal Port of Barrow in northwest England. The Baton Rouge and now Barrow plants both utilize Fischer-Tropsch gasification technology. The UK plant will use mainly woody biomass, comprised of forestry residue and waste wood, as its feedstock, although Gramm CEO Alexander Peschkoff says imported palm kernel shells could also be an option.
