2024,"Fuel for the Long Haul," captures the momentum we've built: advancing construction on our first e-fuel production facility in Moses Lake, Washington; securing $645 million in funding; and forging groundbreaking industry partnerships to advance eSAF.

We also published the widely- read Know Your SAF: Guide to Sustainable Aviation Fuels and received coverage for our funding announcement in The Wall Street Journal. This year, our team attended and spoke at hundreds of conferences and events, including NYC Climate Week, the North American SAF Congress, and Web Summit.
