Biofuels: United Kingdom The project depends on PuriFire’s proprietary hydrothermal gasification technology. This process is being evaluated for wastewater and sludge treatment systems. The company aims to show that wastewater treatment facilities could evolve into decentralized clean energy hubs. These could generate hydrogen and biomethane. Link 26/05/2026.

Biojet/SAF: United Kingdom. Essar Energy Transition (EET) has completed the Pre-Front End Engineering Design (Pre-FEED) stage for one of the UK’s largest advanced sustainable aviation fuel production hubs. Integrated within the company’s Stanlow refinery’s infrastructure, the planned Stanlow Methanol to Jet (MtJ) project will produce more than 200,000 tons per annum (tpa) of advanced SAF, using approximately 550,000 tpa of renewable e-methanol and bio-methanol feedstock. Renewable e-methanol and bio-methanol will be sourced from a range of domestic and international supply sources. Link 2026.

Gasification: The Netherlands. EemsGas Project is to received an SDE++ subsidy grant from the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO), providing an operating subsidy worth 149.8 million euros which will help to deliver certainty of operating income for the next fifteen years. EemsGas is a 50/50 joint venture in which sustainable raw materials producer Perpetual Next and Dutch natural gas infrastructure and transportation company Gasunie have been working together since 2022 to produce large volumes of biomethane from waste wood. For the development of the plant, EemsGas entered into a partnership with TNO, which provides the gasification technology. The plant – featuring leading-edge technology – will deliver 18 million cubic metres of green gas per year, many times the production volumes of conventional green gas production facilities.
