Eco2Fly to produce 100,000 tonnes of hydrogen-based e-SAF from cement production emissions

Could the cement sector aid decarbonisation of aviation?

This week the ECO2Fly project offered an insight into how captured CO2 emissions from a cement plant could be reused in the production of synthetic aviatio...

Hydrogen Hopefuls Advised to Focus on Offtake Amidst Funding Turbulence

Hydrogen is one way to reduce emissions when used in place of higher-emissions fossil fuel sources where feasible, but costs and infrastructure pose challenges.

Holcim, IGNIS P2X and Exolum launch ECO2FLY

These sustainable electro-fuels (eFuels) can directly replace conventional fossil-derived kerosene with no need for adaptations in aircraft or supply infrastructure, facilitating the immediate decarbonization of air transportation. The new facility, located at the Holcim facility in Villaluenga de la Sagra, Toledo, is designed to capture over 700,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) annually during cement production. Part of this CO2 will be combi…

Eco2Fly to produce 100,000 tonnes of hydrogen-based e-SAF from cement production emissions

Ignis P2X, Exolum and Holcim’s joint project will capture a portion of the CO2 produced at the latter’s cement plant and combine it with green hydrogen to produce e-SAF.

H2-View News: Eco2Fly to produce 100,000 tonnes of hydrogen-based e-SAF from cement production emissions

Under project Eco2Fly, the project partners will capture a portion of the CO2 produced at Holcim’s cement plant. The new facility in Toledo is designed to capture over 700,000 tonnes of CO2 per year during cement production, while the unused CO2 will be permanently stored underground. In an online statement, the partners claimed Eco2Fly will avoid emissions of over 6.5 million tonnes of CO2 across its first 10 years of operation. The three compa…
