Greenlyte Unveils Global Lighthouse Facility Producing Sustainable Aviation Fuel from Air and Water, Cheaper Than Fossil Fuel

September 23, 2032, Essen - On its 10th anniversary, Greenlyte Carbon Technologies announced the the successful completion of the ramp-up of LiquidSolar GigaSAF - its first large-scale e-fuel facility turning sunlight, air, and water n into cost-competitive sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) through one integrated facility.

The plant which initially started producing in 2030 has now reached its full capacity of 50,000 tons of SAF per year, thereby capturing 200,000 tons of CO2 annually. The plant is fully RFNBO certified and produces specified Jet-A1. Located strategically in the southern hemisphere, Liquid Solar GigaSAF taps directly into nature’s most abundant resources: solar and wind energy energy. Plans are already in motion to scale the site twentyfold to 1 million tons by 2040.

Over the past decade, Greenlyte has relentlessly driven down the costs of its process to reduce the contribution of its technology to a tonne of SAF to well below 1,500€. This threshold was key to secure an overall SAF price of 2,500€ per tonne. Long-term the technology has the potential to reduce the prices of SAF to well below 1,500€ per tonne. This radical cost down development builds on a decade of scaled projects, like LiquidSolar SNG in 2025 and LiquidSolar Methanol in 2026/27. The company’s IPO in 2029 further enabled strategic acquisitions of downstream technologies.

“LiquidSolar is a global infrastructure backbone providing both economic and ecological value. With LiquidSolar GigaSAF, we’re proving that renewable molecules can be produced at scale, and at a price point that breaks fossil dependency. The plant will be the next turning point in our company as we are moving from the commercial viability into the commercial scaling phase. In the next couple of years, we are planning to bring many more Giga plants to achieve our target of reducing 100M tonnes of CO2 by 2050,” said Florian Hildebrand, CEO of Greenlyte.

Martin Schmickler, COO, added:

“There is no better proof of capability than steel in the ground and product in the pipelines. Scaled projects like GigaSAF are the evidence to the market and to our partners. They validate our technology, but also our ability to execute at industrial scale, integrate into complex supply chains, and deliver real economic and climate impact.”

Dr. Niklas Friederichsen, CTO, emphasized:

“Our path here was built on three principles: radically lowering energy use, enabling full flexibility with intermittent renewables, and designing for rapid, low capex, modular scaling. By integrating CO₂ capture and hydrogen generation in one step, we’ve removed one of the biggest barriers to e-fuel adoption - costs.”

With LiquidSolar, Greenlyte is embedding energy security, climate resilience, and industrial competitiveness into the heart of the European and global transport system. 

Greenlyte’s tech further is now also licensable, extending the reach of Europe’s renewable fuel supply chain across continents.
