Qair launches into the production of synthetic sustainable aviation fuel (e-SAF). But not alone. The Montpellier-based renewable energy producer, which will invest 800 million euros to produce 70,000 tonnes of e-SAF by 2030 in Lannemezan (Hautes-Pyrénées), will rely on Airbus in order to “target the right technologies so that e-SAF is of the best possible quality”explains Guirec Dufour, its general director.
Construction to begin in 2027
This should go quickly. The name of the industrialist who will transform hydrogen and CO2 from companies in the Lannemezan industrial basin into e-kerosene will be revealed in the middle of the year. On a 24 hectare site, the e-SAF production unit with a power of 350 MW will be composed of a hydrogen production unit of 40,000 tonnes per year and a fuel synthesis unit. . Construction is planned for 2027. The acquisition of the land, which belongs to the municipality, for an amount of 2.5 million euros is underway.
