Syntholene Energy Corp has taken a significant step toward revolutionizing the sustainable aviation fuel industry by securing a 20-megawatt geothermal energy agreement to power the world’s first commercial demonstration facility for synthetic sustainable aviation fuel. This groundbreaking project aims to produce carbon-neutral synthetic kerosene using geothermal heat and electricity. In doing so, Syntholene seeks to overcome the cost and scalability challenges traditionally associated with synthetic fuel production. The company aims to be a pioneer in low-cost, high-performance, and sustainable energy solutions for the aviation industry.

The use of geothermal energy ensures a consistent and carbon-neutral power source, which has the potential to significantly reduce the carbon footprint of synthetic fuel production. Additionally, the ability to produce synthetic kerosene that is molecularly identical to conventional jet fuel means it can be used in existing aircraft engines without modifications.
