TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE) (LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE) and SARIA, a
leader on the European market for the collection and valorization
of organic materials into sustainable products, have concluded an
agreement to develop sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production on
the Grandpuits (Seine-et-Marne) zero-crude platform.
This agreement is a major step in securing feedstock supply
(used cooking oils and animal fats) eligible to produce SAF and
will enable the SAF production capacity to reach 210,000 tons per
year, 25% higher than foreseen in the initial project announced in
2020.
Under this agreement, TotalEnergies will take 50% of a
production activity of SARIA, that will supply animal fat esters to
Grandpuits. SARIA will take an equivalent stake in the biofuels
business of the Grandpuits biorefinery, which will remain operated
by TotalEnergies. SARIA will also directly supply used cooking
oils.
"I am delighted to conclude this strategic partnership with
SARIA, which reinforces the conversion of the Grandpuits refinery
into a zero-crude platform oriented towards SAF. This is a major
milestone in our ambition to become one of the leaders in
sustainable aviation fuels," declared Bernard Pinatel, President,
Refining & Chemicals at TotalEnergies. "SAF is the most
efficient solution to immediately reduce CO2 emissions from air
travel, and its development is fully in line with the Company's
Climate ambition to get to net zero by 2050, together with
society."
The project is subject to the legal process for notifying and
consulting TotalEnergies' employee representatives and the approval
of the competent authorities.
About TotalEnergies in Grandpuits
Commissioned in 1966, Total's Grandpuits-Bailly-Carrois refinery
was for a long time the only refinery in the Paris region. In
September 2020, TotalEnergies launched a project to convert the
site, in line with its strategy to become carbon neutral by 2050.
This zero-crude project, with a total investment of more than 500
million euros, is based on the development of several
future-oriented activities in the field of biomass, renewable
energies, and the circular economy: chemical recycling of plastic
waste, production of biosourced and biodegradable bioplastics,
production of biofuels for the aviation sector, construction of a
solar farm and electricity storage by batteries. The start-up of
these new units will begin in 2022, and they should all be
operational by 2025.
TotalEnergies and Sustainable Aviation Fuels
TotalEnergies is developing Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF).
These are biofuels produced from waste and residues from the
circular economy (animal fats, used cooking oils, etc.) and
"e-jets", synthetic fuels for aviation. These sustainable aviation
fuels will significantly reduce CO2 emissions from air
transport
