Gevo, Inc. will once again provide sustainable and renewable alcohol-to-jet fuel (ATJ) to Avfuel Corp. From 15 – 18 May, operators with prior commitments that are flying from Sheltair at Farmingdale, New York’s Republic Airport (KFRG) to the annual European Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (EBACE), held in Geneva, Switzerland, will be filling up with the sustainable fuel.
“We are once again happy to support our North American partner, Avfuel, who to date has received commitments from high-profile OEMs including Bombardier, Embraer, Gulfstream and Dassault to use our ATJ blended with standard jet fuel. This blend not only meets ASTM D1655, but also for every one million gallons produced, approximately 10 million pounds of animal feed and protein goes back into the food chain.” says, Patrick R. Gruber, Gevo’s CEO.
