Boeing invests millions in B.C., Quebec projects to manufacture sustainable jet fuel
- Boeing announced a $17.5 million investment on May 28, 2025, in British Columbia and Quebec projects to produce sustainable aviation fuel .
- This investment is connected to the Canadian government’s November 2023 announcement to purchase up to 16 Boeing P-8A Poseidon aircraft, which require support for low-carbon fuel development.
- The funds are split with $10 million directed to Project Avance in Quebec converting sawmill wood residue into bio-crude, and $7.5 million to Dimensional Energy's BC pilot plant capturing industrial CO2.
- Dimensional's CEO Jason Salfi stated that the BC initiative has the potential to generate 151 million litres of sustainable aviation fuel annually from recycled carbon, while Boeing Canada President Al Meinzinger described SAF as the quickest way to achieve decarbonization in the aviation industry.
- Boeing's $280 million Canadian clean technology investment linked to the Poseidon program aims to reduce emissions in military and commercial aviation and support Canada’s energy transition.
